• Whole genome sequencing of 50 trios, where the child is affected with ID, and the parents are unaffected

  50 trios were whole genome sequenced with Complete Genomics to a depth of 80x. Each trio the child was affected with severe ID, and the parents were unaffected. All trios were negative for array, targetted gene and whole exome screening.

• Comprehensive genetic analysis of uveal melanoma heterogeneity during metastatic progression

  Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults. Despite improvement of diagnosis and treatment of the primary tumor, there is no effective treatment of metastatic disease and approximately half of patients will die within one year or less following metastases detection. Tumor heterogeneity has been proposed as a key factor of drug resistance. However, it has been scarcely studied in UM. The present project aims searching for specific drivers of the metastatic progression, describing the genomic and transcriptomic landscape of metastatic UM, exploring tumor heterogeneity and investigating its role in drug resistance. Thus whole exome sequencing and transcriptomics have been performed on constitutional, primary tumor and metastatic samples from 28 UM patients.

• Genomic characterization of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma reveals critical genes underlying tumorigenesis and poor prognosis

  The genetic mechanisms underlying the poor prognosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) are not well understood. In this study, we comprehensively characterized somatic mutations, copy number alterations (SCNAs)/structural variants (SVs) found in ESCC from sequencing 10 whole-genome and 57 whole-exome matched tumor-normal pairs. We identified multiple somatic mutations seen previously in known cancer pathways and identified candidate genes for ESCC including VANGL1 and MIR4707. A survival analysis based on the expression profiles of 321 ESCC individuals indicated that the somatically altered genes we found were significantly associated with ESCC poorer survival. Subsequently, we performed functional studies to validate the roles of the altered genes in tumor proliferation and metastasis.

• Pervasive H3K27 acetylation and ERV expression in H3.3K27M gliomas present a therapeutic vulnerability

  High-grade gliomas (HGG) defined by histone 3 K27M driver mutations exhibit global loss of H3K27 trimethylation and reciprocal gain of H3K27 acetylation, respectively shaping repressive and active chromatin landscapes. We generated tumor-derived isogenic models bearing this mutation and show that it leads to pervasive H3K27ac deposition across the genome. In turn, active enhancers and promoters are not created de novo and instead reflect the epigenomic landscape of the cell of origin. H3K27ac is enriched at repeat elements, resulting in their increased expression, which in turn can be further amplified by DNA demethylation and histone deacetylase inhibitors providing an exquisite therapeutic vulnerability. These agents may therefore modulate anti-tumor immune responses as a therapeutic modality for this untreatable disease.

• 16 Year Life History and Genomic Evolution of an ER+ HER2- Breast Cancer

  We reconstructed the genomic evolution through the sixteen year history of an ER+ HER2- breast cancer patient to investigate molecular mechanisms of disease relapse and treatment resistance after long term exposure to hormonal therapy. Genomic and transcriptomic profiling was performed on primary breast tumor (2002), initial recurrence (2012) and liver metastasis (2015) tumor samples. Cell free DNA analysis was performed at eleven timepoints (2015-2017).This phylogenetic reconstruction of the life history of a single patient's cancer as well as monitoring tumor progression through liquid biopsies with the detection of a resistant clone harboring a de-novo ESR1 E380Q mutation allowed for uncovering the molecular mechanisms leading to initial relapse, metastatic spread and treatment resistance.

• Aberrant ERBB4-SRC Signaling as a Hallmark of Group 4 Medulloblastoma Revealed by Integrative Phosphoproteomic Profiling

  The four main medulloblastoma subgroups are characterized by distinct biology, clinicopathological features and clinical outcomes. While the WNT and SHH subgroups are characterized by clearly defined aberrant signaling of developmental pathways, the underlying biology of Group 3 and 4 remains poorly understood. Here, we delineate distinct post-translational regulation orchestrating active oncogenic signaling networks in Groups 3 and 4. Specifically, aberrant ERBB4-SRC signaling constitutes a novel hallmark feature of Group 4, with great promise as a novel oncogenic mechanism and potential vulnerability for therapeutic intervention in the most common subgroup. Altogether, this novel integrative proteogenomic landscape demonstrates the added value of proteomics and phosphoproteomics analysis to discover and exploit unexpected oncogenic mechanisms in medulloblastoma and beyond.

• Genome Asia 100K Project

  The underrepresentation of non-European individuals in human genetic studies so far has limited the diversity of individuals in genomic datasets and led to reduced medical relevance for a large proportion of the world’s population. Population-specific reference genome datasets as well as genome-wide association studies in diverse populations are needed to address this issue. Here we describe the pilot phase of the GenomeAsia 100K Project. This includes a whole-genome sequencing reference dataset from 1,739 individuals of 219 population groups and 64 countries across Asia. We catalogue genetic variation, population structure, disease associations and founder effects. We also explore the use of this dataset in imputation, to facilitate genetic studies in populations across Asia and worldwide.

• Heterogeneous metabolic signatures are linked to cancer cell differentiation in colorectal cancer

  Colorectal cancer (CRC) is characterized by functional intratumor heterogeneity that shares many similarites with the hierarchical organization of the normal intestinal epithelium. In order to relate transcriptional subtypes to functional tumor cell heterogeneity we applied scRNA-seq to 12 patient-derived CRC spheroid cultures. We identified shared expression programs that relate to intestinal lineages and revealed metabolic signatures that are linked to cancer cell differentiation. In addition, we validated and complemented sequencing results by quantitative microscopy using live-dyes and multiplexed RNA fluorescence in situ hybridization, thereby revealing metabolic compartmentalization and potential cell-cell interactions. FInally, we demonstrate functional differences between metabolically distinct lineage subtypes that might have strong implications for future treatment strategies of CRC.

• Targeted deep sequencing on Pediatric MDS

  Targeted NGS using custom panels with SAMD9, SAMD9L genes and 22 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) on chromosome 7q (allele frequency >35% in all ethnic sub-populations in gnomAD) (Ampliseq #IAD10417) was performed in 667/669 cases. Additionally, 559 cases were sequenced using 28 pediatric MDS genes (GATA2, RUNX1, HOXA9, CEBPA, GATA1, KRAS, NRAS, CBL, PTPN11, ASXL1, EZH2, SETBP1, FLT3, KIT, JAK2, JAK3, CSF3R, MPL, SH2, BCOR, BCORL1; RAD21, STAG2, CTCF, TP53, PTEN, CALR, VPS45; Ampliseq #IAD51150). Libraries for targeted NGS were prepared using NEBNext Ultra II DNA library prep kit (New England BioLabs, cat#E7645S/L) per manufacturer’s instruction and samples were sequenced on an Illumina Miseq 2000 with 2 x 150 bp reads. The BAM files are uploaded here.

• Temporal stability of circulating microRNAs in human serum

  Circulating microRNA biomarkers for disease have been subject to extensive research. However, insufficient consideration of variability in the healthy population has led to few markers achieving the performance necessary in independent follow-up studies to be taken forward to clinical practice. To investigate the natural variation of circulating microRNA over time, we performed small RNA sequencing in a longitudinal study of 66 women with no history of cancer, and determined the distribution and dynamics (via intraclass correlation coefficients, ICCs) of the miRNA profile over 3 time points sampled across 2-5 years. We also investigate abundances in circulation, as well as the impact of normalization, age, BMI, and other sample collection factors on microRNA measurements from small RNA sequencing.
