• Longitudinal analysis of treatment induced genomic alterations in gliomas

  Here, we report the longitudinal whole exome sequencing analysis of a patient with a primary GBM and two recurrences, demonstrating the heterogeneity caused by the therapy induced molecular changes and their implications for clinical decision-making. This analysis revealed the impact of temporal evolution for tumors under the pressure of treatment. We presented that while targeted treatments eliminated some sensitive clones, there were clones that were enriched leading to resistance. This study demonstrates the importance of longitudinal genomic profiling to adjust to the dynamic nature of therapy induced molecular changes to improve the outcomes of precision therapies.

• Whole transcriptome sequencing of chemotherapy-resistant muscle-invasive urothelial bladder cancer

  All mRNA sequencing data were acquired from single patients (BC159T) at a different time (BC159-T#1, BC159-T#2, and BC159-T#3). The first transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-BT) (BC159-T#1) was diagnosed with non-MIUBC (muscle-invasive urothelial bladder cancer). Despite of intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), the patient progressed into MIUBC at the second TUR-BT (BC159-T#2). After undergoing multiple neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimens (gemcitabine/paclitaxel and sequential paclitaxel), the patient developed local recurrence and multiple lung metastases and removed following palliative partial cystectomy (BC159-T#3).

• Mutation signatures in melanocytic nevi reveal characteristics of defective DNA repair

  Nevi are common benign melanocytic neoplasms that can be found on any skin location and share many of the genomic hallmarks of melanoma. In our recent report involving whole-exome sequencing of acquired nevi (Stark et al., 2018), ultra-violet radiation (UVR) related somatic mutation signatures (“signature 7”) (Alexandrov et al., 2013) were frequently observed in all lesions that were located on sun-exposed sites. In the study presented herein, we sought to investigate whether an independent Spanish cohort (Valencia, Spain) of minimally sun exposed nevi had genomic features consistent with our previous findings.

• TMD_AMKL_targeted_follow_up

  Genomic libraries will be generated from total genomic DNA derived from 200+ patients with childhood Transient Myeloproliferative Disorder (TMD) and or Acute Megakaryocytic Leukemia (AMKL) as well some matched constitutional samples (n < 50). Libraries will be enriched for a selected panel of genes using a bespoke pulldown protocol. 96 Samples will be individually barcoded and subjected to up to two lanes of Illumina HiSeq. Paired reads will be mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the characterisation of known gene mutations in cancer as well as the validation of potentially novel variants identified by prior exome sequencing.

• The_Causes_of_Clonal_Blood_Cell_Disorders_Study___SCOR

  We will take a bone marrow aspirate and peripheral blood samples from a healthy patient aged around 60, and use flow cytometry to isolate 100 HSCs, 50 MEPs, and 50 GMPs. We will grow these up into colonies, then whole genome sequence each colony. Somatic mutations will act as a unique barcode for each clone. We will then design a panel for targeted resequencing of the mutations that we find. It will then be possible to look for these mutations in the peripheral blood over several years, to see the dynamics of how HSCs contribute to the peripheral blood in health.

• Methylation_changes_in_OA_patients_with_chronic_exposure_to_cobalt_and_chromium

  We have whole blood from a population of 70 patients, half exposed chronically to an excessof metals cobalt and chromium. The 2 groups are age, sex, and OA diagnosis matched. The2 groups have systemic differences in bone mass and turnover, and other systemicdifferences.We will type the cohort of 70 individuals on the Illumina 450k methylation array and willcompare between the two groups.This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• A WTCCC2 genome-wide association study for psychosis endophenotype (PE) in individuals from UK, Germany, Holland, Spain and Australia.

  A WTCCC2 project genome-wide association study for psychosis endophenotype (PE) in 5831 individuals from UK, Germany, Holland, Spain and Australia, genotyped on the Affymetrix 6.0 array. Information about the family structure of the samples can be found in the .info file which accompanies the data. It should be noted that a number of samples in this study have no phenotype information including sex, case status and family membership. Details of the WTCCC2 analysis can be found in Bramon et al. [Biol Psychiatry. 2014 Mar 1;75(5):386-97].

• Transcriptomics_of_human_olfactory_mucosa

  The olfactory gene repertoire is largely species-specific, shaped by the nature and necessityof chemosensory information for survival in each species' niche. We are intrigued by thisinterspecific variation and started to investigate the olfactory transcriptome in primates forevidence of selection at the level of receptor gene choice. Having collected this data fromtwo primates, we now wish to extend the analysis to humans.This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• Linking genes, genomic instability and molecular subgroups in medulloblastoma

  Brain tumors are the second most common pediatric cancer and carry the highest mortality rates in this age group. Medulloblastoma is the most frequent malignant brain tumor of childhood. Recent studies indicate that medulloblastoma comprises at least four sub-entities (SHH-signaling, WNT-signaling, Group-C, Group-D) that differ in molecular alterations, cell of origin, clinicopathological features and outcome. Further characterization of the entire spectrum of genomic alterations underlying the formation of these distinct groups is urgently needed to identify diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for clinical management and uncover novel therapeutic targets.
