• Whole genome analyses of the childhood cancer neuroblastoma

  Neuroblastomas are tumors of peripheral sympathetic neurons and are the most common solid tumor in children. To determine the genetic basis for neuroblastoma we performed whole-genome sequencing (6 cases), exome sequencing (16 cases), genome-wide rearrangement analyses (32 cases), and targeted analyses of specific genomic loci (40 cases) using massively parallel sequencing. On average each tumor had 19 somatic alterations in coding genes (range, 3-70). Among genes not previously known to be involved in neuroblastoma, chromosomal deletions and sequence alterations of chromatin remodeling genes, ARID1A and ARID1B, were identified in 8 of 71 tumors (11%) and were associated with early treatment failure and decreased survival. Using tumor-specific structural alterations, we developed an approach to identify rearranged DNA fragments in sera, providing personalized biomarkers for minimal residual disease detection and monitoring. These results highlight dysregulation of chromatin remodeling in pediatric tumorigenesis and provide new approaches for the management of neuroblastoma patients.

• Combination therapies for personalized cancer medicine

  It is the ambition of the team formed by members of the Netherlands Cancer Institute (NKI) and the Cancer Genome Project at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (WTSI) to unravel the genomic and phenotypic complexity of human cancers in order to identify optimal drug combinations for personalized cancer therapy. Our integrated approach will entail (i) deep sequencing of human tumours and cognate mouse tumours; (ii) drug screens in a 1000+ fully characterized tumour cell line panel; (iii) high-throughput in vitro and in vivo shRNA and cDNA drug resistance and enhancement screens; (iv) computational analysis of the acquired data, leading to significant response predictions; (v) rigorous validation of these predictions in genetically engineered mouse models and patient-derived xenografts. This integrated effort is expected to yield a number of combination therapies and companion-diagnostics biomarkers that will be further explored in our existing clinical trial networks.

• Spatiotemporal immune atlas of the first clinical-grade gene-edited pig-to-human kidney xenotransplant

  Pig-to-human xenotransplantation is rapidly approaching the clinical arena; however, it is unclear which immunomodulatory regimens will effectively control human immune responses to pig xenografts. We transplanted a gene-edited pig kidney into a brain-dead human recipient on pharmacologic immunosuppression and studied the human immune response to the xenograft using spatial transcriptomics and single-cell RNA sequencing. Human immune cells were uncommon in the porcine kidney cortex early after xenotransplantation and consisted of primarily myeloid cells. Both the porcine resident macrophages and human infiltrating macrophages expressed genes consistent with an alternatively activated, anti-inflammatory phenotype. No significant infiltration of human B or T cells into the porcine kidney xenograft was detected. Altogether, these findings provide proof of concept that conventional pharmacologic immunosuppression is sufficient to restrict infiltration of human immune cells into the xenograft early after compatible pig-to-human kidney xenotransplantation.

• The chemotherapeutic CX-5461 is extremely mutagenic and may increase cancer risk

  The chemotherapeutic agent CX-5461 or pidnarulex has been fast-tracked by the US FDA for treatment of BRCA1-, BRCA2-, and PALB2-mutated cancers. It is under investigation in Phase I/II clinical trials. Here we find that although CX-5461 exhibits synthetic lethality in BRCA1-/BRCA2-deficient cells, it also causes extensive, non-selective, collateral mutagenesis in all cells, to magnitudes that exceed known environmental carcinogens, raising public health concerns regarding its potential for promoting secondary cancers.

• Human Skin Cancer Atlas, Medical University of Vienna Data Access Policy

  Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play a key role in cancer progression and treatment outcome. Here, we elucidate the yet unresolved intra-tumoral CAF variety in three skin cancer types at molecular and spatial single-cell resolution in a large cohort. We show that two out of three CAF subtypes contribute to tumor immune surveillance with distinct mechanisms. Matrix CAFs (mCAFs) ensheath tumor nests and synthesize extracellular-matrix to prevent T cell invasion. Immunomodulatory CAFs (iCAFs), which express proinflammatory and immunomodulatory factors, are only detected in high abundance in aggressive tumors. Strikingly, iCAFs but not tumor cells are (apart from immune cells) the exclusive cell type producing chemokines and, thus, play a key role in immune cell recruitment and activation. Mechanistically, we show that cancer cells transform adjacent healthy fibroblasts into cytokine-expressing iCAFs, which subsequently recruit immune cells and modulate the immune response. In conclusion, targeting CAF variants holds promise for improved efficacy of immunotherapy.

• EOSC4Cancer Longitudinal Synthetic Colorectal Cancer Genomic data developed at BSC

  The synthetic genomes have been created trying to mimic real cancer data of 4 patients (Named 185,186,187 and 188). Mutations are based on real CRC patients from the PCAWG dataset. For each patient, two tumor samples at different time points and one healthy sample have been simulated. The cancer intra-tumor heterogeneity and evolution in the patients is depicted by simulating reads from tumor subclones separately and then mixing them according to their clonal proportions in each sample. For rapid use and transfer only selected chromosomes have been generated for each patient. Chromosomes per patient: -185: chr4, chr5, chr7, chr17 -186: chr1, chr7, chr12, chr17 -187: chr1, chr2, chr5, chr12, chr17 -188: chr2, chr5, chr12, chr13, chr17 Worflows used to create BAM/BAI, VCF and MAF files from FASTQ (Alignment with GRCh38): - https://usegalaxy.eu/published/workflow?id=2c3d05023c02113e - https://usegalaxy.eu/published/workflow?id=1da86d74f8535f4e

• analysis of immune infiltration in colorectal cancer metastasis

  Metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is the main cause of CRC mortality, with limited treatment options. Although immunotherapy has benefited some cancer patients, mCRC typically lacks the molecular features that respond to this treatment. However, recent studies indicate that the immune microenvironment of mCRC may be modified to enhance the effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors. This study aimed to explore the metastatic immune microenvironment by comparing immune cell populations in colorectal liver (CLM), lung (mLu) and peritoneal (PM) metastases.

• Neurogenetics_Essen

  Neurogenetic disorders are a clinically heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by an alteration or dysfunction of the central nervous system, resulting from a change encoded in the genome of affected individuals. Most of these conditions are individually rare but collectively frequent (>1-5% of the population), manifesting during development (neurodevelopmental disorders) or during later life (neurological disorders). Currently, genetic alterations in approximately 2,500 genes have been linked to human disorders affecting the brain and collectively explain approximately 50% of patients with neurological disorders with a supposed genetic etiology. We aim to identify new genes and uncover novel mechanisms underlying neurological and neurodevelopmental disorders, with a current focus on noncoding regions and complex (repeated) regions. We use a range of complementary approaches that make use of advanced technologies and bioinformatics tools. We combine short-read genome sequencing and long-read technologies, including nanopore sequencing and optical genome mapping, with multi-omics approaches (RNA sequencing, proteomics…) to detect pathogenic variants missed by routine diagnostics and to discover new genetic diseases.

• Epigenetic memory of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination in monocyte-derived macrophages

  Immune memory is key to effective antimicrobial responses, but the impact of mRNA vaccines on this process is not fully understood. Our research shows that SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines alter the epigenetic profile of human macrophages, specifically enhancing histone acetylation, which is linked to immune training. Significant epigenetic changes, along with increased cytokine release, require two vaccine doses. However, these effects diminish over time but can be restored with a booster dose six months later, maintaining a strong pro-inflammatory response.

Once sequencing libraries passed standard quality control metrics, libraries were sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq2000 P4 100 cycle reagent kit with the following read structure: R1: 28, R2: 90, I1: 10, I2: 10. Libraries were sequenced to obtain a read depth greater than 10,000 reads/cell for gene-expression (GEX). FASTQ files are made available. More detailed information can be obtained in Argyriou A. et al, Annals of the Rheumatic Disease, 2025.

• Genetic Legacy of Punan Hunter-Gatherer Groups in Indonesian Borneo

  Punan Batu (the “Cave Punan”), the last living nomadic hunter-gatherer (HG) group who still literally live under karst rock shelters in Borneo, is the least-known hunter-gatherer society in Asia. To provide insights on the origin and adaptation of the Cave Punan, here we present the autosomal genome-wide SNPs study of the Cave Punan, including other Punan groups who speak different language from the Cave Punan, which are transitioning into a more sedentary lifestyle.

• Access to "BMP9 controls pulmonary vascular growth and remodeling"

  Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) are two distinct vascular diseases linked to impaired signaling through bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) receptor complexes in endothelial cells. Although BMP-9 plays a central role in activating this pathway by binding to ALK1 and BMPR-II, its precise function in the pulmonary microvasculature has remained unclear. In this study, we uncover a previously unrecognized role for BMP-9 in regulating pulmonary vascular architecture and homeostasis. Our findings demonstrate that BMP-9 signaling intersects with VEGF pathways and contributes to the delicate balance between vascular growth and remodeling in the lungs. We also show that disruption of this pathway can shift vascular responses toward an HHT-like state, potentially altering disease susceptibility. These insights offer a unique perspective on how BMP-9 and ALK1 shape pulmonary vascular biology and suggest that targeting this axis could inform future strategies for treating complex vascular diseases such as PAH.

• 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.

• RNAseq of MCL cell lines

  This study provides bulk RNA sequencing data from Mino and Jeko-1 mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cell lines treated with CDK9 inhibitors, including the novel compound YX0798. CDK9 is a key regulator of RNA polymerase II–mediated transcription, and its inhibition disrupts transcriptional programs critical for tumor survival. The dataset captures transcriptomic changes associated with CDK9 inhibition, including downregulation of oncogenic drivers such as MYC and MCL-1. These data support mechanistic studies of transcriptional reprogramming and therapeutic vulnerability in aggressive MCL.

• Multiregional single nuclei RNA-seq and WGS of prostate cancer

  This study investigates the clonal evolution and metastatic dissemination of prostate cancer using multiregional single-nuclei RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) and low-pass whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data from 43 spatially distinct tumor areas in five patients with locally advanced prostate cancer, including both primary and regional lymph node samples. We employed the Chromium Next GEM Single Cell 3’ Kit (v3/3.1, 10x Genomics) for single-nuclei transcriptome profiling and constructed bulk WGS libraries using the NEBNext Ultra II FS DNA Library Prep Kit (New England Biolabs) from the same pool of nuclei extracted from each area. snRNA-seq data were aligned to the human genome (GRCh38-1.2.0_premrna) using 10x Genomics Cell Ranger v5.0.0, while WGS reads were aligned to the human reference genome (GRCh38) with BWA MEM, achieving an average sequencing depth of 0.3X for low-pass WGS and 16X after resequencing.

• Integrated Methylation and Copy Number Analysis for Non-invasive Bladder Cancer Detection in Urine

  The molecular analysis of urine cell-free DNA (cfDNA) offers a non-invasive tool to advance bladder cancer (BC) management. Assessment of somatic copy number aberrations (SCNA) and DNA methylation, as singular or complementary analysis, have emerged as promising approaches for BC detection. Here, we developed an integrated analysis to assess both SCNA and targeted methylation changes from the same template molecules, named the iSECURE (integrated SEquencing-based Copy number and methylation analysis in URinE) method.

• Genetic differences between primary colorectal cancer and its paired synchronous and metachronous metastases

  In this study we present for the first time the genetic differences associated with different chronicity of colorectal cancer liver metastases identified by whole-exome sequencing of 210 CRC samples. We focus on differences in primary tumors as we hypothesize that these are the cause of the differences in the time course of the disease. The results suggest that distinct tumor progression pathways account for different chronicity outcomes with ultimate impact on patient’s prognosis

• Microbiome

  16S-sequencing: All stool samples were processed according to the standards of the Flemish Gut Flora Project (Falony et al., 2016). All samples were processed together and sequenced in as a single batch (dual index run DI23R22) which included positive controls (PC, identical stool sample), negative controls (PCR-mix) and ‘blanks’ or negative controls of the extraction (no sample). In addition, a Runella strain (RS) was included to check for potential cross-contamination, as this strain is not present in human samples. The V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene was amplified with the primer pair 515F and 806R (GTGYCAGCMGCCGCGGTAA and GGACTACNVGGGTWTCTAAT, resp.), modified to contain a barcode sequence between each primer and the Illumina adaptor sequences to produce dual- barcoded libraries (Tito et al., 2019). Sequencing was performed on the Illumina MiSeq. Sequences were processed using the LotuS (Hildebrand et al., 2014) and DADA2 pipeline (Callahan et al., 2016) using RDP 16 as the reference taxonomy.
