• PDX_models_from_Latin_America_WES_

  Acral melanoma (AM) is a subtype of cutaneous melanoma that occurs on glabrous skin of the hands and feet (palms, soles and nail apparatus) and which is relatively more common in non-European descent populations such as those of Latin America. Compared to other subtypes, it is poorly studied and experimental models that faithfully reproduce human AM features are urgently needed. We report the generation and preliminary characterisation of a collection of patient-derived xenografts of acral melanomas (AM-PDX) from Latin-American patients. PDX came from Brazilian and Mexican patients cared for at the Instituto Nacional de Câncer (INCA) and the Instituto Nacional de Cancerologia (INCan). The majority of the samples are acral lentiginous melanomas, ulcerated, with > 4mm Breslow depth and > 2 mitosis / mm2. Samples were mechanically fragmented and subcutaneously implanted in NSG mice and then collected for molecular analysis.

• H3K27ac ChIP-seq in a selected group of AML patients

  ChIP-seq data were generated for a number of selected patients to investigate changes in enhancer and promoter regions. ChIP was performed as described previously with slight modifications27. Briefly, cells were crosslinked with 1% formaldehyde for 10 minutes at room temperature and the reaction was quenched with glycine at a final concentration of 0.125 M. Chromatin was sheared using the Covaris S220 focused-ultrasonicator to an average size of 250–350 bp. A total of 2.5 µg of antibody against H3K27ac (Abcam, ab4729) was added to sonicated chromatin of 2 × 106 cells and incubated overnight at 4 °C. Protein A sepharose beads (GE healthcare) were added to the ChIP reactions and incubated for 2 h at 4 °C. Beads were washed and chromatin was eluted. After crosslink reversal, RNase A and proteinase K treatment, DNA was extracted with the Monarch PCR & DNA Cleanup kit (NEB). Sequencing libraries were prepared with the NEBNext Ultra II DNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (NEB) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The quality of dsDNA libraries was analyzed using the High Sensitivity D1000 ScreenTape Kit (Agilent) and concentrations were assessed with the Qubit dsDNA HS Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Libraries were single-end sequenced on a HiSeq 4000 (Illumina). ChIP-seq reads were aligned to the human reference genome build hg19 with bowtie

• Epithelial, fibroblast, myeloid, T cell, primary prostate cancer

  The collection and use of tissue for this study had Melbourne Health institutional review board approval and patients provided written informed consent (Melbourne Health Local Project Number: 2016.087). Following the prostatectomy of 13 patients, ranging from 52 to 78 years of age and from CAPRA-S risk score of 0 (attributed to benign tissue samples, harvested from a site far from a low grade, low volume cancer) to 7 (Supplementary file 2), a four millimeter tissue core was collected from the prostate tumour site, conditional to histopathological verification66,67. If not otherwise specified, all procedures were carried out at 4 °C. Tissue blocks were washed in Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution for 2 minutes and minced for 2 minutes with a scalpel. Homogenised tissue was added to a solution (total volume of 7 ml) composed by of 1 mg/ml collagenase IV (Worthington Biochemical Corp, USA), 0.02 mg/ml DNase 1 (New England Biolabs, USA), 0.2 mg/ml dispase (Merck, USA). The tissue homogenised was serially digested at 37 °C at 180 rpm, through three steps of 5, 10 and 10 minutes of duration, with the final 3 minutes dedicated to sedimentation at 0 rpm. After each digestion step, the supernatant was aspirated and filtered through a 70 μm strainer into a pre-chilled tube, diluting the solution with 15 ml of 2% bovine serum PBS to quench the enzymatic reaction. The resulting cumulative solution was then centrifuged at 1500 rpm for five minutes, with the supernatant collected and the cell pellet resuspended into 1 ml 2% PBS-serum prior to labelling (Fig. S1).

• Transcriptome Changes in ASD (NRXN1α+/-) iPSC-derived neurons

  NRXN1 deletions are identified as one of major rare risk factors for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other neurodevelopmental disorders. ASD has 30% co-morbidity with epilepsy and the latter is associated with excessive neuronal firing. NRXN1 encodes hundreds of presynaptic neuro-adhesion proteins categorized as NRXN1α/β/γ. Previous studies on cultured cells show that the short NRXN1β primarily exerts excitation effect, whereas the long NRXN1α which is more commonly deleted in patients involves in both excitation and inhibition. However, patient-derived models are essential for understanding functional consequences of NRXN1α deletions in human neurons Quantitative RNA sequencing was performed by BGI using 50bp single-end strategy with BGI-SEQ500 sequencing device on iPSC-derived cortical neurons from 6 control lines; (2VC1, 3VCX1, 3VC2, 4C3, 4CX1, NCRM-1) of 4 healthy donors, and 4 NRXN1α+/- lines; (ND1C1, ND2C11, ND2CX1, ND4-1C2) from 3 ASD patients.

• Metabolic profiling of patient-derived organoids reveals nucleotide synthesis as a metabolic vulnerability in malignant rhabdoid tumors

  Malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) is one of the most aggressive childhood cancers for which no effective treatment options are available. Reprogramming of cellular metabolism is an important hallmark of cancer, with various metabolism-based drugs being approved cancer treatment. In this study, we use patient derived tumor organoids (tumoroids) to map the metabolic landscape of several pediatric cancers. Combining gene expression analyses and metabolite profiling using mass spectrometry, we find nucleotide biosynthesis to be a particular vulnerability of MRT. Treatment of MRT tumoroids with de novo nucleotide synthesis inhibitors lowers nucleotide levels in MRT tumoroids and induces apoptosis. Lastly, we demonstrate invivo efficacy of methotrexate in an MRT PDX mouse model. Our study revealsnucleotide biosynthesis as an MRT-specific metabolic vulnerability, which can ultimately lead to better treatment options for children suffering from this lethal pediatric malignancy.

• NanoString nCounter® PanCancer IO 360™on anti-PD1/anti-PD1+CTLA4 in patients with metastatic melanoma

  Patients with advanced melanoma were treated with standard-of-care single agent anti-PD-1 (nivolumab or pembrolizumab) or a combined anti-PD-1+anti-CTLA-4 (ipilimumab) therapy. Patients were retrospectively identified, based on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue availability. Total RNA was isolated from macro-dissected FFPE tissue sections using the AllPrep DNA/RNA FFPE Kit (Qiagen) or High Pure FFPET RNA Isolation Kit (Roche) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. RNA quantity was assessed on Qubit, and RNA integrity was assessed using the Tapestation system (Agilent). Total RNA samples (60ng/ul, total 200ng) were used as input for the NanoString PanCancer IO360 Panel, run on the nCounter MAX/FLEX prep station and scanner. Samples were hybridised for 20hrs, and each cartridge contained a panel standard.
