• ICGC Prostate Cancer Whole Genome Sequencing

  To characterize the subclonal genomic architecture of androgen-deprived metastatic prostate cancer, we performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 51 tumours from 10 patients to an average sequencing depth of 55x, including multiple metastases from different anatomic sites in each patient and, in five cases, the prostate tumour. Noncancerous DNA from blood or other tissue is used as reference comparison for each patient. The patients are part of PELICAN (Project to ELIminate Lethal Cancer) rapid autopsy study led by G. Steven Bova at Johns Hopkins University (USA) and Tampere University (Finland). As of September 2020, some of the studies using these data include: Gundem et al, Nature 2015 (PMID: 25830880).

• Shallow Whole Genome Sequencing of Patient Derived Xenografts

  Chemotherapy is the standard-of-care treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) and benefits some patients, but what distinguishes responders from non-responders is unclear. In this study, we leveraged a comprehensive collection of 27 molecularly annotated patient-derived xenografts to uncover functional predictors of response to 5-FU and irinotecan combination therapy (FOLFIRI) in mCRC. Genetic analyses revealed that treatment sensitivity was marked by genomic scars indicative of BRCAness, suggesting homologous recombination (HR) deficiency as a key determinant. Accordingly, we surveyed a manually curated panel of 44 genes with a documented role in HR for the potential presence of pathogenic mutations. We did not observe a specific enrichment of HR gene mutations based on response to FOLFIRI. This result, combined with the absence of widespread biallelic inactivation of the analyzed genes and the predominance of mutations categorized as variants of unknown significance, suggests that FOLFIRI sensitivity is not primarily governed by underlying mutations in HR genes responsible for mitigating the genotoxic effects of this therapeutic regimen.

• SNP Genotype Data: Subpopulations of Filipino, Malaysian, and Papua New Guinea

  In the context of the study 'Exploring Adaptive Phenotypes for the Human Calcium-Sensing Receptor Polymorphism R990G,' this repository contains 11 VCF files. Each file includes genetic data from 22 autosomes, representing distinct subpopulations. The subpopulations are as follows: Malaysian: Aeta (15 samples) Agta (11 samples) Batak (10 samples) Mamanwa (6 samples) Filipino: Jehai (13 samples) Kintaq (6 samples) Temiar (5 samples) Papua New Guinea: Highlands (2 samples) Koinambe (10 samples) Kosipe (10 samples) Sepik (2 samples) The numbers in parentheses indicate the sample size for each respective subpopulation.

• A tumor focused approach to resolving the etiology of DNA mismatch repair deficient tumors classified as suspected Lynch syndrome

  Routine screening of tumors for DNA mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency (dMMR) in colorectal (CRC), endometrial (EC) and sebaceous skin (SST) tumors leads to a significant proportion of unresolved cases classified as suspected Lynch syndrome (SLS). A tumor-focused testing approach reclassified 86.9% of SLS into Lynch syndrome, sporadic dMMR or MMR-proficient cases. These findings support the incorporation of tumor sequencing and alternate MLH1 methylation assays into clinical diagnostics to reduce the number of SLS patients and provide more appropriate surveillance and screening recommendations.

• Nurminen et al ("GP2Men") Study Primary and Metastatic Prostate Cancer Whole Genome Sequence Data

  We used novel processing techniques to obtain whole genome data together with 3D anatomic and histomorphologic analysis in two men (GP5 and GP12) with high risk PrCa undergoing radical prostatectomy. A total of 22 whole genome-sequenced sites (16 primary cancer foci and 6 lymph node metastatic) were analyzed using evolutionary reconstruction tools and spatio-evolutionary models. Probability models were used to trace spatial and chronological origins of the primary tumor and metastases, chart their genetic drivers, and distinguish metastatic and non-metastatic subclones.

• Whole exome sequencing of pediatric soft tissue sarcoma PDX models

  Childhood cancer remains one of the leading causes of death in pediatric patients in Europe. Pediatric sarcomas, comprising soft tissue sarcomas and malignant bone tumors, are a heterogenous group of malignancies, with more than 50 subtypes (WHO classification). Due to low case numbers, studying pediatric sarcomas requires accurate and reliable preclinical models. Here, we established 18 soft tissues sarcoma PDX models, including Ewing Sarcoma, Rhabdmyosarcoma and Osteosarcoma. We characterized these models by Whole Exome Sequencing and assessd the response to a wide range of drugs.

• Processed Chromium Single Cell GEX, CSP and VDJ data from intestinal plasma cells of untreated celiac disease patients

  The dataset contains processed sequencing data from Chromium Single Cell 5’ gene expression, human B cell VDJ and feature barcode (CSP) sequencing from transglutaminase 2-specific and other small intestinal plasma cells isolated from four untreated celiac disease patients. The raw sequencing data has been processed with Cell Ranger v.6.0.2 with the multi and aggr functions using the pre-built Cell Ranger references GRCh38 version 2020-A for gene expression and GRCh38-alts-ensembl-5.0.0 for V(D)J analysis. The dataset consists of a gene expression and antibody capture expression matrix (cell barcodes and feature names in tsv.gz file, expression matrix in mtx.gz file) and VDJ sequences in AIRR format (csv file). A metadata file (csv file) details cells passing our custom quality control based on number of detected genes, UMIs, mitochondrial genes, immunoglobulin genes and a productively rearranged immunoglobulin heavy chain of the IgA isotype.

• Targeted re-sequencing of multi-region sampled tumors in PDAC

  Multi-region tumor samples were cut from frozen sections or FFPEs and reviewed from microdissection and H&E staining in order to select ones with high cellularity. DNA extraction was done using DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kits for frozen samples following the manufacturer’s guideline. Extracted DNAs were processed on an Illumina HiSeq 2500 in a paired end mode (100x100) using a custom targeted panel based on the list of all unique somatic mutations from the original WES data by the Integrated Genomics Operation (IGO) at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (New York, NY).

• Alterations in the gut microbiome in inflammatory arthritis implicate key taxa and metabolic pathways across arthritis phenotypes

  The gut microbiome has been implicated in several inflammatory conditions, but large-scale metagenomic evaluations have not yet traced the routes by which immunity in the gut affects systemic inflammatory diseases, such as inflammatory arthritis. To characterize the community structure and associated functional processes driving gut microbial involvement in arthritis, we investigated a total of 440 stool shotgun metagenomes comprising 275 adults diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, or psoriatic arthritis, along with 165 healthy control individuals and individuals with joint pain without an underlying inflammatory cause.

• PARK7/DJ-1 deficiency modulates microglial activation in response to LPS-induced inflammation

  Specific microglia responses are thought to contribute to the development and progression of various neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the phenotypic acquisition of microglial cells and their role during the underlying neuroinflammatory processes remain largely obscure. Here, according to the multiple-hit hypothesis, which stipulates that PD etiology is determined by a combination of genetics and various environmental risk factors, we investigate microglial transcriptional programs and morphological adaptations under PARK7/DJ-1 deficiency, a genetic cause of PD, during lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation.
