• Peripheral immunoprofiling of stratifies COVID-19 patients based on disease-specific neutrophil signatures

  The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has led to increasing numbers of COVID-19 patients all over the world. Aetiopathologies range from no symptoms, mild flu-like to severe cases succumbing to respiratory failure. Reports on a dysregulated immune system in the severe cases, showing similarities to cytokine release syndrome, calls for better characterization and understanding of the changes in the immune system as well as their variance across COVID-19 patients in order to be able to design according to host-directed therapies. Here, we profiled blood transcriptomes of 39 COVID-19 patients and 10 control donors. Enriched granulocyte signatures in whole blood samples were verified in granulocyte samples from 49 COVID-19 patients in a second cohort.

• RNA-seq of non-LPS treated (N), non-tolerized (NT), and tolerized (T) IFNg-primed macrophages pretreated with or without HDAC3i

  In this experiment we investigated the effect of HDAC3 inhibition on the transcriptome of IFNg-primed macrophages under different tolerization conditions. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from 3 healthy donors. PBMCs were isolated from whole blood of healthy donors using Ficoll gradient (Invitrogen). Monocytes (CD14+ cells) were positively selected from PBMCs using CD14 Microbeads according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Miltenyi Biotec). Monocytes were subsequently treated with or without 500 nM HDAC3i (ITF3100) for 30 minutes prior to overnight IFNg priming (50 ng/mL). Cells were then kept without LPS (non-LPS; N), treated with 10 ng/mL LPS once (non-tolerized; NT), or treated with LPS twice (tolerized; T; second LPS concentration: 100 ng/mL). In total, there were 18 samples included.

• Variant calls for "Quality of Whole Genome Sequencing from Blood versus Saliva Derived DNA in Cardiac Patients"

  Paired blood and saliva samples from five unrelated individuals were directly compared for quality of whole genome sequencing. Two (Sample Pairs 1 and 2) were female probands diagnosed with tetralogy of Fallot, a type of congenital heart disease, and three (Sample Pairs 3, 4 and 5) were male probands diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. WGS was performed using Illumina HiSeq X to a target average coverage depth of 30x and a read length of 150 bp. The resulting reads were not filtered for minimum quality in order to avoid losing possible contaminant reads. Sequencing read alignment was done using Isaac Aligner to human genome build hg19. Short variant i.e. single-nucleotide variant (SNV) and small insertion-deletion (indel) calling was performed using Isaac Variant Caller with default parameters.

• Genomic Evolution of Breast Cancer Metastasis and Relapse

  Recurrent breast cancer is almost universally fatal. We characterize 170 patients locally relapsed or distant metastatic cancers using massively parallel sequencing. We identify that the relapse-seeding clone disseminates late from the primary tumor. TP53 and AKT1 appear to be enriched in ER-positive cancers predisposed to relapse. Mutation acquisition continues at relapse as the same mutation signatures continue to operate and new signatures, such as that caused by radiotherapy appear de novo. In 49% of cases we identify drivers mutations private to the relapse and these are sampled from a wider range of cancer genes, including SWI-SNF complex and JAK-STAT signaling.

• BAM files: Brain transcriptome of hereditary cerebral haemorrhage with amyloidosis–Dutch type (HCHWA-D)

  cDNA depleted RNA (500ng total RNA input) was fragmented to 150-200 nucleotides in first strand buffer for 3 minutes at 94°C. Random hexamer primed first strand was generated in presence of dATP, dGTP, dCTP and cTTP. Second strand was generated using dUTP instead of dTTP to tag the second strand. Subsequent steps to generate the sequencing libraries were performed with the KAPA HTP Library Preparation Kit for Illumina sequencing with minor modifications, i.e., after indexed adapter ligation to the dsDNA fragments, the library was treated with USER enzyme (NEB_M5505L) in order to digest the second strand derived fragments. After amplification of the libraries, samples with unique sample indexes were pooled and sequenced paired-end 2x50bp on a HiSeq2500 system following standard Illumina guidelines.

• Variant calling analysis of cfDNA whole exome sequencing in neuroblastoma

  This dataset contains VCF files from a variant calling analysis of 19 neuroblastoma patients. WES or WGS data of the primary tumor were compared to WES cfDNA analysis at the time of diagnosis and at a 2nd timepoint (complete remission, partial remission, disease progression or relapse). For 4 patients, WGS of germline, tumor at diagnosis and tumor at relapse DNA was performed on Illumina HiSeq2500, with 100-bp paired-end reads. For the other patients, WES was performed using either an AgilentSureSelect Human All Exon v5 or a Roche Nimblegen SeqCap EZ Exome V3 kit on Illumina HiSeq2000, with 100-bp paired-end reads. SNVs observed in any of the primary tumors or cfDNA samples studied by WES were targeted using a capture sequencing panel at all intermediate time points.

• Exome sequencing of thyroid disease in Val Borbera

  The Val Borbera is a region characterized by low iodine and high prevalence of thyroid disorders, the commonest endocrine disorders in the general population. About 30% of the participants of the Val Borbera Project were affected by such disorders and were characterized by several parameters, TSH level, anti TPO antibodies, echography, family origin. Individuals with extreme phenotypes were identified and could be clustered based on family origin and genotype. We propose to exome sequence 6 of them, affected with true goiter, at high dept (40-60x) to obtain information on exonic rare variants. Due to the family structure and to the availability of whole genome sequence information on 110 individuals from the isolated population we expect to be able to identify putative causative variants for thyroid disorders that may be studied in the remaining affected individuals.

• Genome Diversity in Africa Project - ancient samples - standard libraries

  Given the central importance of Africa to studies of human origins, genetic diversity and disease susceptibility, large-scale and representative characterisation of genetic diversity in Africa is needed. Analyses of ancient DNA from Africa would complement sequencing of modern African populations and provide unique opportunities to transform our understanding of the pre-history of the region. This approach would greatly refine our understanding of population structure and gene flow in Africa and globally, including genetic signatures of ancient admixture. This low coverage sequencing experiment will allow us to test and refine our pipeline for ancient DNA sequencing. This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• WGBS data (CancerLocator study) of cell-free DNA derived from human blood

  The blood samples of eight lung cancer patients and one benign lung tumor patient are collected for this dataset. Blood samples were centrifuged first at 1,600 × g for 10 minutes, and then the plasma was transferred into new micro tubes and centrifuged at 16,000 × g for another 10 minutes. The plasma was collected and stored at -80⁰C. CfDNA was extracted from 5 ml plasma using the Qiagen QIAamp Circulating Nucleic Acids Kit and quantified by Qubit 3.0 Fluoromter (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Bisulfite conversion of cfDNA was performed by using EZ-DNA-Methylation-GOLD kit (Zymo Research). After that, Accel-NGS Methy-Seq DNA library kit (Swift Bioscience) was used to prepare the sequencing libraries. The DNA libraries were then sequenced with 150bp paired-end reads.

• MultiOMICS study of a pair of infant monozygotic twins with concordant B-cell ALL (WGS)

  B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-cell ALL) is the most common cancer in childhood. Studying identical twins with B-cell ALL provides a unique and tractable model for deciphering the developmental timing of pre- and post-natal mutations contributing to clonal evolution. To date, this has mainly focused on major cytogenetic subgroups of childhood B-cell ALL, including MLL fusions, ETV6-RUNX1, hyperdiploidy, and BCR-ABL1. However, formal demonstration of the prenatal origin and “backtracking” the natural history of the leukemia remains understudied in “B-other”/Normal Karyotype (NK) B-cell ALL. To characterize the genetic landscape of this particular leukemia subtype, we performed whole genome DNA- and B-cell receptor (BCR)- on a pair of 8-month-old monozygotic twins diagnosed with concordant “B-other”/NK B-cell ALL.

• single cell RNA-seq of bone marrow from infants with MLL-rearranged Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia by single cell RNA-sequencing

  This dataset contains two experiments. 1) Single cell RNA-seq of diagnostic samples from patients with MLL-rearranged infant ALL that underwent relapse or not (samples ending in R relapsed, samples ending in N did not). For some of the patients, multiple indipendent plates were produced (each plate is a sample). 2) in vitro prednisolone exposure experiment. diagnostic bone marrow samples from patient 4662R were cultured for three days with and without prednisolone. Single cell experiments were conducted according to Muraro et al (cell systems, 2016, doi:10.1016/j.cels.2016.09.002). Cell barcodes and UMI sequences are embedded in the header of each fastq entry. Cell barcodes irrelevant to this experiment were removed before submission.

• Low coverage whole-genome sequencing of samples from the Cretan Greek isolate collection HELIC-MANOLIS

  Whole-genome sequencing at 1x of samples from the Cretan Greek isolate collection HELIC-MANOLIS. Genome-wide association studies of complex traits have been successful in identifying common variant associations, but a substantial heritability gap remains. The field of complex trait genetics is shifting towards the study of low frequency and rare variants, which are hypothesised to have larger effects. The study of these variants can be empowered by focusing on isolated populations, in which rare variants may have increased in frequency and linkage disequilibrium tends to be extended. This work focuses on an isolated population from Crete, Greece. Sequencing is very efficient in isolated populations, because variants found in a few samples will be shared by others in extended haplotype contexts, supporting accurate imputation.

• Lung cancer organoids

  Organoids are self-organizing 3D structures grown from stem cells that recapitulate essential aspects of organ structure and function. Here we describe a method to establish long-term culture conditions of human airway epithelial organoids that contain all major cell populations and allow personalized human disease modelling. We collected macroscopically inconspicuous lung tissue from non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients undergoing medically indicated surgery and isolated epithelial cells to engineer 3D organoids. We exploit the potential to derive sub-clones from AOs to demonstrate the feasibility of CRISPR gene editing. Finally, we show that AOs readily allow modelling of viral infections such as RSV and for the first time demonstrate the possibility to study neutrophil-epithelium interaction in an organoid model. Taken together, we anticipate that human AOs will find broad applications in the study of adult human airway epithelium in health and disease.

• TGS - Comprehensive Molecular Characterization of Colorectal Cancer Metastases (2015-07-02)[MOSAIC]

  Systematic next generation sequencing efforts are beginning to define the genomic landscape across a range of primary tumours, but we know very little of the mutational evolution that contributes to disease progression. We therefore propose to obtain a comprehensive description of genomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic changes in a cohort of matched primary and metastatic colorectal cancers, and additionally to explore the extent to which those mutations identified as recurrent in the metastatic setting are able to subvert normal biological processes using both genetically engineered mouse models and established cancer cell lines. This study will enable us to define to what extent primary tumour profiling can capture the biological processes operative in matched metastases as well as the significance of intratumoural heterogeneity. This dataset contains all the data available for this study on 2015-07-02.

• single-cell RNA-seq Case-Control study of children progressing to Type1 diabetes

  It was a single-cell RNA sequencing study on the PBMC samples from four Finnish children at risk of developing Type 1 diabetes and their gender age and HLA matched control children. All four Case children were positive for multiple islet specific autoantibodies and two of them also progressed to clinical disease during the follow up whereas the control children remain negative for all autoantibodies. Single-cell analysis confirmed some of the signatures obtained from the bulk data. It identified that high IL32 in case samples in the bulk RNA-seq was contributed mainly by activated T cells and NK cells. Trajectory analysis of the scRNA-seq data suggested that IL32 expression increased as the T cells moved towards activated state.

• Acquisition of additional mutations drives accelerated progression of NPM1 positive CMML to AML

  This data is part of a pre-publication release. For information on the proper use of pre-publication data shared by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (including details of any publication moratoria), please see http://www.sanger.ac.uk/datasharing/ We performed exome sequencing on serial samples from a patient with CMML who progressed to AML. The exome sequencing suggests that NPM1, TET2 and DNMT3a mutations were present in the dominant clone in the CMML sample and that NRAS is a new subclonal mutation in the AML sample. Diagnostic data shows the presence of a FLT3-ITD mutation in the AML sample, which is likely to have driven progression. Here we are performing re-sequencing of the putative driver and some passenger mutations which appear to be in the same clone to validate these mutations and to verify the relative quantification of these abnormalities .
