• 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.

• A CCG expansion in ABCD3 causes oculopharyngodistal myopathy in individuals of European ancestry

  In this study we describe the identification of CCG expansions in ABCD3 in affected individuals across eight unrelated OPDM families of European ancestry. In two large Australian OPDM families, using a combination of linkage studies, short-read WGS and targeted ONT sequencing, we identified CCG expansions in the 5’UTR of ABCD3. Independently, the ABCD3 CCG expansion was identified through the 100,000 Genomics England Genome Project in three individuals from two unrelated UK families diagnosed with OPDM.

• Transcriptome HCCO Hypoxia and Doxorubicin resistance

  We hypothesized that HCCO-intrinsic determinants of response to hypoxia or doxorubicin could be reflected in the gene expression profiles of the HCCOs. Therefore, we selected for comparative transcriptomic analysis two sets of 4 HCCO lines that were severely (hypoxia-sensitive) or barely affected (hypoxia-resistant) by hypoxia in an ATP-based proliferation assay or two sets of 4 HCCO lines whose doxorubicin response curves were clearly separated both under normoxic and hypoxic culture conditions for comparative transcriptomic analysis.

• 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

• Whole Genome Sequencing of HER2-Positive Metastatic Extramammary Paget’s Disease: A Case Report

  Extramammary Paget’s disease (EMPD) is a rare cancer that occurs within the epithelium of the skin. Whole genome sequencing of the tumor and matched blood was performed. Whole genome sequencing revealed the underlying copy number variation landscape in HER2-positive metastatic EMPD. The presence of alternative signalling pathways and genetic variants suggests potential interactions with HER2 signalling, which possibly contributed to the HER2 overexpression and observed response to HER2-directed therapy combined with other agents in a comprehensive treatment regimen.

• Plasma mutation profile of precursor lesions and colorectal cancer using the Oncomine Colon cfDNA Assay

  Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Early detection of precursor lesions or early-stage cancer could hamper cancer development or improve survival rates. Liquid biopsy, which detects tumor biomarkers, such as mutations, in blood, is a promising avenue for cancer screening. To assess the presence of genetic variants in plasma cell-free tumor DNA from patients with precursor lesions and colorectal cancer using the commercial Oncomine Colon cfDNA Assay. Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) samples from the blood plasma of 52 Brazilian patients were analyzed. Eight patients did not have any significant lesions (five normal colonoscopies and three hyperplastic polyps), 24 exhibited precursor lesions (13 nonadvanced adenomas, ten advanced adenomas, and one sessile serrated lesion), and 20 patients with cancer (CRC). The mutation profile of 14 CRC-associated genes were determined by next-generation sequencing (NGS) using the Oncomine Colon cfDNA Assay in the Ion Torrent PGM/S5 sequencer.

• DIAMOND PCR : plasma DNA LINE-1 targeted bisulfite sequencing, a new non-invasive multi-cancer detection marker

  The detection of circulating tumor DNA, which allows non-invasive tumor molecular profiling and disease follow-up, promises optimal and individualized management of patients with cancer. However, detecting small fractions of tumor DNA released when the tumor burden is reduced remains a challenge. We developed a PCR-based targeted bisulfite method coupled to deep sequencing to detect methylation patterns of L1PA elements,which we named DIAMOND (for Detection of Long Interspersed Nuclear Element Altered Methylation ON plasma DNA). We used sodium bisulfite chemical conversion to achieve base-pair resolution analysis and designed a multiplexed PCR based on 8 amplicons covering L1PAs .

• Characterization of copy number quiet oral cancer

  Copy number quiet head and neck squamous cell carcinoma are a distinct subset with relatively good prognosis. Previous work has indicated this subset is most commonly found in the oral cavity and is highly enriched for HRAS and CASP8 mutations. TP53 mutations are much less common than in CNA-quiet oral cancers. In this study we corroborate the validity of CNA-quiet tumors as a distinct subset in a large OSCC cohort and further chart clinical, genomic, and immunological characteristics of this subset.
