• Estimating the Efficacy of Pharmacogenomics Over a Lifetime

  The goal was to evaluate the potential impact of pharmacogenomic testing on drug prescribing over a lifetime. To address this goal, 300 random patients enrolled in Marshfield Clinic's PMRP biobank with life-long medical records were whole genome sequenced and evaluated for known clinically actionable pharmacogenomic variants as defined by CPIC and FDA. This genomic data was evaluated in the context of extensive longitudinal prescription record data from patient EHR. Results show nearly all (93%) carry a clinically actionable pharmacogenomic variant and 80% with a variant were prescribed approximately three medications on average that may have been impacted because of their variants, the optimal age for pharmacogenomic testing was prior to age 50, but most patients well past their 50s can still benefit from pharmacogenomic testing. Results available include genotype and drug prescribing data.

• Disease-Linked Regulatory DNA Variants and Homeostatic Transcription Factors in Epidermis

  The role of non-coding variants in polygenic skin disease and their connection to homeostatic transcription factors (TFs) in epidermis was investigated. Homeostatic TFs were identified by perturb-seq in differentiating keratinocytes, using either 10x or split-pool approaches to sequencing, with follow-up validation by siRNA and RNA-seq. TF binding events were profiled by population sampling Cleavage Under Targets & Release Using Nuclease (CUT&RUN), in which a random population of neonatal foreskin keratinocytes were assayed by CUT&RUN for homeostatic TFs under progenitor growth and differentiation conditions. Heterozygous alleles were identified from the TF binding data and examined for allele specific binding events (ASBs). ASBs were then compared with non-coding variants linked to skin disease. Variants with potentially pathogenic effects were identified. Promoters and high TF occupancy genomic regions were found to be "buffered" against variants causing ASBs.

• Detection of brain cancer using genome-wide cell-free DNA fragmentomes

  Diagnostic delays in patients with brain cancer are common and can impact patient outcome. Development of a blood-based assay for detection of brain cancers could accelerate brain cancer detection. In this study, we analyzed genome-wide cell-free (cfDNA) fragmentomes, including fragmentation profiles and repeat landscapes, from the plasma of individuals with (n=148) and without (n=357) brain cancer. Machine learning analyses of cfDNA fragmentome features detected brain cancer across all grade gliomas (AUC=0.90, 95% CI: 0.87-0.93) and these results were validated in an independent prospectively collected cohort. cfDNA fragmentome changes in patients with gliomas represented a combination of fragmentation profiles from glioma cells and altered white blood cell populations in the circulation. These analyses reveal the properties of cfDNA in patients with brain cancer and open new avenues for noninvasive detection of these individuals.

• Identification of a Type 1 Diabetes-Associated T Cell Receptor Repertoire Signature from the Human Peripheral Blood

  Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is a T-cell mediated disease with a strong immunogenetic HLA dependence. HLA allelic influence on the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire shapes thymic selection and controls activation of diabetogenic clones, yet remains largely unresolved in T1D. We sequenced the circulating TCRβ chain repertoire from 2250 HLA-typed participants across three cross-sectional cohorts, including T1D individuals, and healthy related and unrelated controls. We found that HLA risk alleles show higher restriction of TCR repertoires in T1D individuals. We leveraged deep learning to identify T1D-associated TCR subsequence motifs that were also observed in independent TCR cohorts residing in pancreas-draining lymph nodes of T1D individuals. Collectively, our data demonstrate T1D-related TCR motif enrichment based on genetic risk, offering a potential metric for autoreactivity and groundwork for TCR-based diagnostics and therapeutics.

• Genetics of gene expression in primary human immune cells

  The purpose of this study was to identify cell specific expression quantitative trait loci in freshly isolated highly purified primary B-cells and monocytes from healthy subjects of European ancestry. Cells were purified from Ficoll gradient prepared peripheral blood mononuclear cell fractions using positive selection via magnetic bead labelling of the B-cell marker CD19 and monocyte marker CD14. RNA was extracted from 287 B-cell samples and 288 monocyte samples. RNA was then hybridised to HumanHT-12 v4 BeadChips whole genome expression arrays (Illumina). Individuals were genotyped on HumanOmniExpress-12v1.0 BeadChips (Illumina) at 733202 genetic markers. Data presented include the raw expression values and Robust Spline Normalised values (RSN) for expression for each cell type per individual. Additional genotype data per individual is available on request.

• ProstOmics: spatial and bulk multi-omics of prostate cancer

  In this ERC-funded ProstOmics project we have used spatial and bulk multi-omics on fresh frozen prostate cancer samples to investigate cancer biology and find for biomarkers to improve patient treatment. All tissue material were collected from prostate cancer patients undergoing radical prostatectomy who had not received any prior cancer-specific treatment.Of the 498 prostate tissue samples (114 patients) included in our project, 176 samples (N=37 patients) have been analyzed with bulk transcriptomics (RNA-seq). Some of these 176 samples were also analyzed with spatial transcriptomics (n=32, N=8, Visium 10x RNA-seq) and DNA methylomics (n=96, N=24, array). All datasets include metadata for histopathological evaluation. Patient metadata include information of age at surgery, time (months) until reported relapse, pre-surgery PSA and post-surgery T-stage.

• Dynamic Evolution of Fibroblasts Revealed by Single Cell RNA Sequencing of Human Pancreatic Cancer

  Understanding the constituents of the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) microenvironment may illuminate more efficacious targets for treating this aggressive malignancy. However, the compositional changes occurring in untreated and treated PDAC relative to both normal and inflamed pancreas have not been well characterized. To provide a more comprehensive understanding of the PDAC tumor microenvironment relative to the non-cancerous pancreas, we performed single-cell expression profiling (10X Genomics Chromium) on samples of upfront resectable PDAC, FOLFIRINOX-based treated PDAC, chronic pancreatitis, and normal pancreas specimens from 19 patients. Spatial gene expression profiling (10X Genomics Visium) was performed to gain additional insight into cell populations. Our analysis revealed that fibroblasts are central mediators of cell-cell communication in both inflamed and malignant settings and defined unique roles for these cell populations in different disease contexts.

• Highly prevalent NF-kappa B signaling pathway-activating somatic mutations in intracranial aneurysms

  Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are a high-risk factor for life-threatening subarachnoid hemorrhage. Their etiology, however, remains mostly unknown. We conducted screening for somatic mutations in 65 IA tissues and identified 16 genes that were mutated with a high prevalence (92%). In particular, six genes, including PDGFRB, were mutated commonly in fusiform and saccular IAs and are linked to the NF-kappa B signaling pathway. Mutant PDGFRBs constitutively activate NF-kappa B signaling and induce inflammation-related gene expression in vitro. Spatial transcriptomics also detected similar changes in IA tissues. Virus-mediated expression of a mutant PDGFRB induces a fusiform-like dilatation of the basilar artery in mice. This study reveals a high prevalence of somatic mutations in NF-kappa B signaling genes in IAs and opens a new avenue of research toward development of its pharmacological interventions.

• Mutational anysis of breast cancer stem cells

  Exome sequences of breast cancer have been investigated for many patients. Recently it has been shown that there are intra-heterogeneity in tumor tissues. When the tumor cells were sequenced in bulk condition, only the major populations��� (clones���) mutations will be detected. Based on cancer stem theory, each populations��� cells are derived from each cancer stem cells, which their numbers are not so different among different clones. Here, we separated cancer cells into cancer stem cells and non-cancer stem cells exploiting cancer stem cell specific surface markers. By comping two groups��� mutation, we identified mutations, which were only detected in stem cell population. These mutations could be the mutations in cells of small size populations, and maybe the important mutations to understand the heterogeneity of tumor tissues, progression, and/or prediction for the outcome to therapies.

• DEPArray-based sorting of pure carcinoma and stromal populations from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues followed by shallow whole genome sequencing

  To overcome the challenges of low DNA yields, degraded DNA by formalin fixation and diluted signal of genomic aberrations by non-carcinoma components in the heterogeneous FFPE samples, we isolated pure carcinoma and stromal cells using the DEPArray™ NxT system, a microchip-based digital sorter that allows isolation of pure, homogeneous subpopulations of cells from FFPE samples. We isolated pure carcinoma and stromal cell populations from 12 FFPE tissues, including tissues from 9 primary and metastatic breast cancer and 3 primary ovarian high-grade serous carcinomas. This was followed by downstream shallow whole genome sequencing (WGS) for copy number landscape profiling for 10 samples. Seven out of 10 samples (even some with low tumour content or of old age) produced good quality genomic data, detecting sCNA in all carcinoma population samples but not in the stromal populations.
