• Molecular analysis of cancer genomes in children with Lynch syndrome: exploring causal associations

  Lynch syndrome (LS) predisposes to cancer in adulthood and is caused by heterozygous germline variants in a mismatch repair (MMR) gene. Recent studies show an increased prevalence of LS among children with cancer, suggesting a causal relationship. For LS-spectrum (LSS) cancers, including high-grade gliomas and colorectal cancer, causality has been supported by typical MMR-related tumor characteristics, but for non-LSS cancers, causality is unclear. This dataset contains 5 patients with Lynch Syndrome from the INFORM registry.

• Regions of common inter-individual DNA methylation differences in human monocytes.

  Based on whole genome bisulfite sequencing of five human monocytes from unrelated individuals, we have identified regions of common inter-individual DNA methylation differences, where methylation is inversely correlated with active histone marks, but not with the expression of the associated genes. Genome-wide association studies in 1128 individuals show that allelic DNA methylation is caused by genetic variation in cis. At some loci, DNA methylation appears to be affected also by genetic variation in trans.

• Cold Ischemia Study

  This study aimed to evaluate the impact of cold ischemia time on the expression of cancer-related genes, particularly those involved in hypoxia, apoptosis, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). We performed RNA sequencing on 54 normal colon mucosa samples from nine patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgeries, freezing samples at predefined intervals ranging from 0 to 60 minutes. A total of 44 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) (p < 0.05) were identified when comparing samples frozen immediately (T0) with those frozen after 60 minutes (T5).

• Colorectal adenomas and carcinomas NKI-AvL TGO series Gut2009

  Colorectal cancer (CRC) develops from normal epithelium, through a benign precursor lesion called adenoma, by accumulation of genetic alterations affecting oncogenes and tumour suppressor genes. These CRC-related genomic alterations often result in specific RNA-expression patterns. RNA isolated from fresh frozen specimen of 32 adenomas and 29 CRCs was obtained from the previously published study (Carvalho et al. 2009) and RNA-sequencing was performed with the aim to examine RNA expression changes in colorectal adenoma-to-carcinoma progression.

• Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage patients with or without vasospasm

  Cerebellar vasospasm is a severe complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) occurring for 30% of aSAH patients. To date, no biomarker of vasospasm occurrence exists and thus all aSAH patients undergo a preventive and dangerous treatment. In this study, we explored the miRNome of aSAH patients to detect potential expression differences between the patients developing a vasospasm (VSP+) or not (VSP-). The shared data include raw and normalized count miRNA data in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage patients with or without vasospasm.

• Comprehensive investigation of genome architecture of gastric adenocarcinoma with whole-genome sequencing in the Chinese population.

  In this study, we performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 214 paired GC tumors and adjacent normal tissues to identify novel potential biomarkers. We extracted mutational signatures which induce somatic mutations and classified GC tumors into four groups with significantly different prognosis. Moreover, we observed copy number changes and structural variations frequently occurring in some cancer related genes. Our study covers a comprehensive genetic framework that can be used in clinical trials and treatment modalities in GC.

• Hip OA Functional Genomics

  The aim of this work is to apply an integrated systems approach to understand the biological underpinnings of hip osteoarthritis that culminates in the need for total joint replacement (TJR). This study is a feasibility pilot that integrates functional genomics data from diseased and non-diseased tissues of OA patients who have undergone TJR. For each tissue, we characterised epigenetic marks (methylation), gene transcription (RNASeq) and expression (quantitative proteomics). We also generated genotype data on the HumanCoreExome array for each individual.

• Boson HCV infected liver bulk RNASeq study

  ACE2 is a receptor for the SARS-CoV-2 and differences in its expression may affect susceptibility to infection. In a genome-wide eQTL analysis using hepatitis C virus-infected liver tissue, we discovered that polymorphism in a type III interferon gene (IFNL4), which eliminates IFN-lambda-4 production, is associated with a two-fold increase in ACE2 RNA expression. Conversely, among genes negatively correlated with ACE2 expression, IFN-signalling pathways were highly enriched and ACE2 was downregulated after IFN-alpha treatment.

• Dissecting the Spatial Heterogeneity of Single Circulating Tumor Cells in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

  The dismal outcome of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is closely associated with intra- and extrahepatic metastases, which have been proposed to be initiated by circulating tumor cells (CTCs). However, the plasticity of gene expression and immune evasion mechanisms of CTCs during systemic circulation are not well defined. Here, we determined intra- and inter-vascular transcriptional heterogeneity within the circulatory system using single-cell RNA-sequencing of 113 CTCs isolated from four key vascular sites along their dissemination route in ten HCC patients.

• Genomic profiling of matched well differentiated and de-differentiated liposarcoma.

  Well-differentiated (WD) and de-differentiated (DD) liposarcoma, subtypes of adipocytic sarcomas, are pathologically and clinically dissimilar, but are poorly distinguishable at the molecular level. These tumors harbor neochromosomes formed from amplifications and rearrangements of chr12q. Nineteen selected patients with matched WD and DD tumors underwent extensive exomic and transcriptomic profiling to distinguish genomic features between the two subtypes. Shared point mutations suggest a common tumor origin and de-differentiated tumors have higher burdens of deletions.

• Celiac disease-specific intestinal T cells analyzed with HLA-class II tetramers, RNA-seq and mass cytometry have a narrow, autoimmune-associated phenotype

  Celiac disease (CD) is an HLA-DQ2/8-associated autoimmune enteropathy driven by activation of gluten-specific CD4+ T lymphocytes upon gluten consumption. Much less is known about the phenotype and function of these cells or their correlation, if any, to disease-relevant cells in other autoimmune disorders. Here we use mass cytometry and RNA seq to show that gluten-specific blood and gut T cells occupy a small and phenotypically distinct T-cell subset.

• Oral mucosa organoids as a potential model for personalized therapies

  Organoids were established from both tumor and matched wildtype tissue from patients diagnosed with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). In order to confirm tumor status and identify oncogenic driver mutations, DNA derived of these organoids was sequenced. After validation of tumor identity, organoids were exposed to a range of (targeted) chemotherapeutics and radiotherapy. Differential responses to therapeutics were subsequently correlated to underlying genetic alterations to see if DNA mutation status could be predictive for responses to therapy.
