• Single-Cell Profiling of Premature Neonate Airways Reveals a Continuum of Myeloid Differentiation

  We set out to develop a reference single-cell transcriptomic profile of airway aspirate samples from extremely premature neonates (collected within an hour of birth). In this study, we profiled samples from 10 subjects. We identified cells in the airways of premature neonates representing a continuum of myeloid differentiation, including fetal monocytes, differentiating myeloid cells, and macrophages. Trajectory analysis identified two trajectories consistent with interstitial and alveolar macrophages, and a bridging trajectory providing an alternative route between these terminal states. We defined 259 alveolar-specific genes, 666 interstitial-specific genes, and 285 bridging-specific genes providing the first single-cell transcriptional map of differentiating airway macrophages in humans.

• Impact of Respiratory Virus Infections and Bacterial Microbiome Shifts on Lymphocyte and Respiratory Function in Infants Born Prematurely or Full Term

  Public health importance: Babies born preterm, approximately 1 out of every 9 live births in the United States, have significant respiratory morbidity over the first two years of life, exacerbated by respiratory viral infections. Many (<50%) return to pediatricians, emergency rooms and pulmonologists with symptoms of respiratory dysfunction (SRD): intermittent or chronic wheezing, poor growth and an excess of upper and lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI). SRD correlate inversely with gestational age and weight at birth and is more common in those with chronic lung disease of prematurity, yet its incidence and severity varies widely among both the prematurely born and those born at term. There is evidence from clinical studies and animal models that risks of LRTI and recurrent wheezing is influenced by gut and respiratory flora and by T cell responses to infection. Information gained from this study will be used to identify characteristics, risk factors and potential mechanisms for early and persistent lung disease in children born at term and born preterm. This Clinical Research Study will investigate the relationships between sequential respiratory viral infections, patterns of intestinal and respiratory bacterial colonization, and adaptive cellular immune phenotypes which are associated with increased susceptibility to respiratory infections and long term respiratory morbidity in preterm and full term infants. We hypothesize that the timing and acquisition of specific viral infections and bacterial species are directly related to respiratory morbidity in the first year of life as defined by SRD and by measures of pulmonary function. We hypothesize that cellular and molecular immuno-maturity are altered due to factors presented by premature birth in such a way as to promote chronic inflammatory and cytotoxic damage to the lung, with subsequent enhanced, damaging responses to infectious agents and environmental irritants. Our preliminary studies demonstrate both feasibility and expertise in mutiparameter immunophenotyping of small volume peripheral blood samples obtained from premature infants including gene expression arrays of flow cytometry sorted cells. We will use new technologies for known viral identification, as well as high-throughput metagenome sequencing of RNA and DNA virus like particles (VLP) to be used for viral discovery in infant respiratory sample and use of high-throughput pyrosequencing (454T) of bacterial 16S rRNA to determine shifts in bacterial community structure, occurring in pre-term (PT) as compared to full term (FT) infants, over the first year of life. Finally, we present statistical approaches to stratify disease risk predictors using multivariate logistic regression modeling approaches. We propose to evaluate T cell phenotypic and functional profiles relative to viral and predominant bacterial exposures according to highly complementary, but independent, Specific Objectives. Objective 1: To determine if viral respiratory infections and patterns of respiratory and gut bacterial community structure (microbiome) in prematurely born babies predict the rate and degree of immunologic maturation, and pulmonary dysfunction, measured from birth to 36 weeks corrected gestational age (CGA). Objective 2: To determine the relationship between respiratory viral infections and disease severity up to one year CGA, and the lymphocyte (Lc) phenotypes documented at term gestation (birth for term infants and 36 wks/NICU discharge in preterm infants) and at one year CGA. Three secondary outcomes of this objective will be to a) relate the quantity, type and severity of viral infections with pulmonary function at one and three years of life, b) relate the viral community structure to severity of viral infections and c) to seek evidence of modulation of viral susceptibility by bacterial respiratory and gut community structure (microbiome). The relationship of colonization with known and non-identified bacterial species in both the respiratory tract and the gut will be evaluated. Flow cytometry data corresponding to this study can be found within Immport study SDY1302. Positive and negative controls for microbiome samples are uploaded under SRA bioproject PRJNA474485. Microbiome samples corresponding to PRISM2 are distinguished from PRISM1 via "_PRISM2" appended to the sample name. Within the positive and negative controls, PRISM1 controls are uploaded as bam files and PRISM2 controls are uploaded as paired fastq. Samples ending in -08 correspond to TLDA qPCR results for a given sample. There is a column for each pathogen tested and a column to indicate where that pathogen was bacteria or virus.

• A non-canonical lymphoblast in refractory childhood T cell leukaemia

  Refractory cancers may arise either through the acquisition of resistance mechanisms by cancer cells or represent distinct diseases. The origin of childhood T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (T-ALL) that does not respond to initial treatment, i.e. refractory disease, is unknown. Refractory T-ALL carries a poor prognosis and cannot be predicted at diagnosis. Here, we performed single cell mRNA sequencing of T-ALL from children who did or did not respond to initial treatment. We identified a transcriptionally distinctive blast population, exhibiting features of innate-like lymphocytes, as the major source of refractory disease. Evidence of such blasts at diagnosis heralded refractory disease across independent datasets and was associated with survival in a large, contemporary trial cohort. Our findings portray refractory T-ALL as a distinct disease. They may have immediate clinical utility.

• Metagenomic Analysis to Identify Novel Infectious Agents in Systemic Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma

  Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a rare T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Risk of systemic ALCL is markedly increased among immunosuppressed people, such as those with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or solid organ transplant recipients. This increased risk in immunosuppressed populations suggests a viral etiology, given similar elevations for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), Burkitt lymphoma, and Hodgkin lymphoma (caused by Epstein-Barr virus [EBV]) and other virus-related cancers in immunosuppressed individuals. EBV might be a plausible candidate, but most reported ALCL tumors are EBV-negative. Therefore, we conducted a metagenomic analysis of microbial associations with ALCL to determine whether a known or novel pathogen is associated with the tumor. We obtained archived formal fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) ALCL tumor tissue from the Iowa cancer registry and an additional case from an immunosuppressed individual infected with human immunodeficiency virus. Controls included 3 diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCLs) in transplant recipients (shown to be related to Epstein-Barr virus [EBV] by in situ hybridization) and 3 breast cancers (no known viral etiology). RNA was extracted from FFPE specimens, and total RNA libraries were prepared using the KAPA RNA HyperPrep Kit (Roche). Five samples (IA01, IA53, IA57, IA07, and IA17) were sequenced on a NextSeq 500 (Illumina) and the remainder on a NovSeq 6000 (Illumina). Using novel computational approaches, we eliminated human reads and aligned residual non-human reads to known microbial references using GATK-PathSeq or conducted de novo assembly of unassigned reads using virID pipeline. Although EBV was detected in the 3 DLBCL controls, we did not detect EBV or any novel pathogen in ALCL tumors or in the breast cancers. Our study had a modest sample size and only one case arising in HIV-infected individual. Therefore, further studies are required to characterize the metagenome of systemic ALCLs, especially cases arising in immunosuppressed people.

• GATA2 Deficiency and the MonoMAC Syndrome

  The aim of this study was to identify the germline mutation(s) in an extended family with individuals having MonoMAC Syndrome/GATA2 deficiency but lacking a canonical GATA2 mutation. GATA2 deficiency patients develop bone marrow failure, severe immunodeficiency and may progress to myeloid malignancies, including myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). The definitive treatment for GATA2 deficiency is a bone marrow transplant. Approximately 90% of GATA2 deficiency patients have a known de novo or inherited germline mutation in the GATA2 gene, but ~10% have no identified mutation. The study was initiated with the first patient and her second cousin, both of whom were treated for MonoMAC Syndrome and received bone marrow transplants at the NIH. Pedigree analysis and clinical evaluation identified the individuals in several generations of these patients' near and distant relatives who are/were presenting or carrying the disease manifestations of GATA2 deficiency. Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) was employed on these patients' two related nuclear families to identify variants that segregated with the disease trait and carrier status of their families. Genotyping was confirmed with direct DNA sequencing of these and other family members within the extended family across generations. A single base adenine-to-thymidine change was identified in a highly conserved enhancer element ~117,000 bp upstream of the GATA2 gene. It creates a new Composite Element, a DNA motif known to be critical in the regulation of hematopoiesis. This variant is unique to this family and is not present in dbSNP or other variant databases. It segregates with the disease trait and obligate carriers throughout a large pedigree. In vitro studies show that this variant drives allele-specific overexpression of the GATA2 gene in cultured cells and luciferase assays. The WGS sequence from the nuclear families will be shared on dbGaP.

• Somatic Mutations and Their Etiological Determinants for Breast Cancer in African American Women (B-CAUSE Study)

  The breast cancer health disparity between women of African ancestry (AA) and European ancestry (EA) remains a major public health challenge in the United States. AA women are afflicted by higher rate of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and bear the highest mortality rate of all populations from the disease. Even within TNBC, some data suggest that AA women have poorer outcomes than EA women. Mounting evidence points to population differences in cancer biology, a fundamental question that remains unsettled. The disparity also manifests in representativeness in tumor sequencing projects, due to the low inclusion of AAs in genomic studies. A recent analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data revealed that the number of AA cases sequenced was sufficient only for studying frequently mutated genes (≥10%), and the power was worse for TNBC as a separate disease entity. As a result, the breast tumor mutational landscape elucidated to date is derived mostly from EA cases, and may not necessarily represent AA cancer genomes. Moreover, as discovery potential for new driver genes has come close to a plateau, cancer in AAs derived from distinct genetic and environmental contexts may provide a powerful venue for discovering mutations that are rare in EA cases. This is showcased in recent studies in colon and prostate cancer. Thus, we carried out a collaborative project, B-CAUSE, to characterize the mutational landscape of AA breast cancer genomes by pooling resources from five established studies, including the Women's Circle of Health Study (WCHS), the Black Women's Health Study (BWHS), the Southern Community Cohort Study (SCCS), the Nashville Breast Health Study (NBHS), and the Southern Tri-State Breast Health Study (STSBHS). This effort has created the largest AA-specific breast tumor mutation dataset to date in an efficient manner. The data deposited here are from the whole-exome sequencing (WES) of matched tumor-normal pairs of 462 TNBC in AA women from the B-CAUSE Study.

• Emirati Genome Project subset of 43,608 WGS samples for population-scale variant discovery and allele frequency mapping.

  Here, we present a comprehensive genomic characterization of a cohort of 43,608 Emirati genomes sequenced as part of the Emirati Genome Program (EGP). This study identified more than 421 million single nucleotide variants and indels and more than 600 million copy number- and structural variants. Small variants had 756 million molecular effects annotated. Of the identified variants, 69.04% were observed with more than one allele. Of 7.7 million polymorphic variants having an allele frequency (AF) of more than 5% in EGP, 1,348 have a predicted deleterious effect on a protein. Characterization of global variation reveals that EGP represents a genetic continuum encompassing the range of African, Asian, and European populations. It is best described by two Arabian, an Eurasian, and an African component, with the predominant Arabian component linked to mitochondrial haplogroups J and T, which are commonly attributed to the Middle East. Various aneuploidies of sex chromosomes were detected in 93 individuals overall and of chromosome 21 in 41 individuals. The median inbreeding coefficient and cumulative runs of homozygosity (ROHs) lengths were increased due to extensive consanguinity, being largest in the groups with Arabian main ancestry components and higher than reported for Qatar. Families were identified based on genetic relatedness and classified into 264 families with unrelated parents and 247 families with third- and fourth-degree consanguineous parents. Representative consanguineous pedigrees of families in EGP were outlined. Cumulative ROHs were affected by the main ancestry component and significantly increased in offspring of consanguineous parents, with a pronounced difference between 3rd and 4th-degree relatedness. Investigation of cumulative AFs of variants causing Mendelian diseases highlighted genes related to alpha- and beta-thalassemia (HBB, HBA2). It showed a high burden of variants causing severe recessive diseases, metabolic and retinal disorders, and hearing loss. In summary, EGP represents a landmark effort in characterizing the genetic diversity of the Emirati population, leveraging the largest Middle Eastern cohort reported to date.
