• Germline variants collaborate with somatic mutations and initiate and/or drive disease in primary myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN)

  Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (T-MN) are poorly characterized secondary hematological malignancies following chemotherapy/radiotherapy exposure. We compared the clinical and mutational characteristics of T-MN (n=129) and primary myelodysplastic syndrome (P-MDS, n=108) patients. Although the somatic mutation frequency was similar between T-MN and P-MDS patients (93% in both groups), the pattern was distinct. TP53 mutations were more frequent in T-MN (29.5% versus 7%), while spliceosomal complex mutations were more common in P-MDS (56.5% versus 25.6%).In contrast to P-MDS, the ring sideroblasts (RS) phenotype was not associated with better survival in T-MN, most probably due to genetic association with TP53 mutations. SF3B1 was mutated in 96% of P-MDS with ≥15% RS, but in only 32% T-MN. TP53 mutations were detected in 92% T-MN with ≥15% RS and SF3B1 wild-type cases. Interestingly, T-MN and P-MDS patients with “Very low” or “Low” Revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) showed similar biological and clinical characteristics. In a Cox-regression analysis, TP53 mutation was a poor prognostic factor in T-MN, independent of IPSS-R cytogenetic, disease-modifying therapy and NRAS mutation.Our data have direct implications for T-MN management and provide evidence that, in addition to conventional disease parameters, mutational analysis should be incorporated in T-MN risk stratification.

• GWAS membranous nephropathy Stanescu et al., 2011 UK cohort, chr2 region of interest, imputed

  334 biopsy-confirmed membranous nephropathy (MN) cases and 349 ethnically matched healthy controls: the British cohort of the Stanescu et al., 2011 GWAS. Genotyped and imputed region of interest on chromosome 2 (hg19 chr2:160500000-161500000), as used to determine Neanderthal introgression near the PLA2R1 MN risk locus (lead SNP: rs4664308).

• Deciphering RBP - alternative splicing networks in ALS iPSC-MN: patient and control datasets

  We produce RNA-seq datasets of iPSC-derived motor neurons (iPSC-MN) from healthy controls and sporadic ALS patients and controls and familial ALS patients with pathogenic variants in TARDBP.

• GWAS for Membranous Nephropathy

  Primary membranous nephropathy (MN) is a rare autoimmune cause of kidney failure. This dataset is from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) designed to identify novel genetic risk loci for MN. The provided cohort (named as European-1 Cohort) is composed of 611 cases of primary MN and 1,246 healthy controls of European ancestry. This cohort was used in the GWAS meta-analysis, as described in the manuscript entitled "Genetic architecture of membranous nephropathy and its potential diagnostic implications" (Nature Communications 2020, in press).The genome-wide summary statistics, including trans-ethnic meta-analysis across 8 GWAS cohorts of European and East Asian ancestry and ethnicity specific meta-analyses, are freely available for download on the Kiryluk lab website: http://www.columbiamedicine.org/divisions/kiryluk/resources.php.

• The Nephrotic Syndrome Study Network (NEPTUNE)

  The Nephrotic Syndrome Study Network (NEPTUNE) is a collaborative investigational infrastructure of 40 North American sites for conducting clinical and translational research in Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), Membranous Nephropathy (MN), and Minimal Change Disease (MCD). NEPTUNE provides prospective, un-blinded, standardized evaluation of clinical and molecular outcomes in two cohorts: A) adults and children with incident or prevalent, biopsy-proven FSGS, MN, or MCD, recruited at the time of first biopsy, and B) children with incident Nephrotic Syndrome without a diagnostic kidney biopsy.

• Deciphering RBP - alternative splicing networks in ALS iPSC-MN: NOVA1 gain and loss of function systems

  We produced NOVA1 and EGFP over-expression RNA-seq datasets in three healthy control individuals using lentivirus-mediated gene transfer to model NOVA1 gain of function. Additionally, we produced a NOVA1 loss of function RNA-seq dataset by generating iPSC-MN with NOVA1 knock out produced by CRISPR/Cas9 in the CV-B iPSC line.

• An isogenic human iPSC model unravels neurodevelopmental abnormalities in SMA

  Whether neurodevelopmental defects underlie the selective neuronal death that characterizes neurodegenerative diseases is becoming an intriguing question. To address it, we focused on the motor neuron (MN) disease Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), caused by reduced levels of the ubiquitous protein SMN. Taking advantage of the first isogenic human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived SMA model that we have generated and a spinal cord organoid system, here we report that the relative and temporal expression of early neural progenitor and MN markers is altered in SMA. Furthermore, the corrected isogenic controls only partially reverse these abnormalities. These findings raise the relevant clinical implication that SMN-increasing treatments might not fully amend SMA pathological phenotypes. The approach we have taken demonstrates that the discovery of new disease mechanisms is greatly improved by using human isogenic models. Moreover, our study implies that SMA has a developmental component that might trigger the MN degeneration.

• Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms and HSPCs from the International-Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster (I-BFM) Study group

  Dataset contains WGS sequencing data from bulk sorted therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN) and reference cells (MSCs/B cells/T cells). In addition, from 4 patients, also WGS data from single hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, obtained from samples of t-MN diagnosis, are included. These are either clonally expanded before WGS, or DNA was directly amplified via the primary template-directed amplification (PTA) protocol (mentioned in the sample name).

• Molecular and Clinical Analyses of PHF6 Mutant Myeloid Neoplasia Provide Clues as to Their Pathogenesis and Therapeutic Targeting

  PHF6 mutations (PHF6MT) are identified in various myeloid neoplasms (MN). However, little is known about the precise function and consequences of PHF6 in MN. Our comprehensive genomic analyses yielded three main findings. Firstly, we revealed a different pattern of genes correlating with PHF6MT in male and female cases. When analyzing male and female cases separately, in only male cases, RUNX1 and U2AF1 were co-mutated with PHF6. In contrast, female cases revealed co-occurrence of ASXL1 mutations and X-chromosome deletions with PHF6MT. Next, proteomics analysis revealed a direct interaction between PHF6 and the pioneer transcription factor RUNX1. Both proteins co-localize in active enhancer regions that define the context of lineage differentiation. Finally, we demonstrated a negative prognostic role of PHF6MT, especially in association with RUNX1. The negative effects on survival were additive as PHF6MT cases with RUNX1 mutations had worse outcomes when compared to cases carrying single mutation or wild-type.
