• Manchester Eye Tissue Repository Genome-Transcriptome Project

  The Manchester Eye Tissue Repository Genome-Transcriptome (METR-GT) Project comprises whole genome sequencing data and paired short read, high-depth bulk-RNA sequencing data from the neurosensory retina (NSR) and the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) from 201 unrelated individuals that donated eye-tissue post-mortem. None of the individuals included in the cohort had phenotypic presentation, assessed post-mortem, consistent with late-stage AMD or monogenic ophthalmic disorders. In this dataset we include WGS fastq files, WGS VCF files (at an individual level and an aggregate VCF that has undergone variant-level quality control), RNASeq BAM files of the NSR and RPE, gene expression quantification files of the NSR and RPE (including raw gene counts generated by RNASeQC and estimated TPM and FPKM values generated by RSEM). Additionally, we have included the output files from eQTL mapping in both tissues, generated by tensorQTL and instances of aberrant gene expression events generated by the OUTRIDER module of the DROP pipeline.

• Contribution of specific cell types to the development of Barrett’s esophagus and carcinoma via germline genetic risk

  This study was designed to elucidate how individual cell types in Barrett’s esophagus (BE) and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) contribute to disease development via germline genetic risk. We performed single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) of BE, EAC and paired normal esophagus and gastric fundus tissue samples. After analyzing individual cell types, we integrated the scRNA-seq data and data of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) on BE/EAC to determine cell type-specific genetic risk. Raw data from the RNA-sequencing is provided here.

• CUT&Tag sequencing of ZFHX4 and H3K27ac in midbrain dopaminergic neurons.

  CUT&Tag sequencing of the transcription factor ZFHX4 and the histone mark H3K27ac was performed in midbrain dopaminergic neurons (mDANs) derived from induced pluripotent stem cells. This epigenomic approach enabled the identification of ZFHX4 binding sites in this specific cellular context. Comparing the CUT&Tag profiles of ZFHX4 and H3K27ac provided insights into epigenetic landscapes in mDANs and revealed whether ZFHX4 exhibits patterns similar to the active transcription mark H3K27ac. Finally, enrichment analysis of the identified peaks highlighted potential primary targets of ZFHX4 in mDANs.

• WES of Mino-VEN-R Mantle Cell Lymphoma Cells

  This project investigates the genetic basis of therapy resistance in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) using whole exome sequencing (WES) of the Mino_VEN_R cell line, a model of resistance to pirtobrutinib, a non-covalent BTK inhibitor. Our study suggested that drug-tolerant persister (DTP) cells evade therapy through metabolic and phenotypic reprogramming. By analyzing the exome profile of resistant cells, this study aims to identify mutations associated with treatment escape and cellular plasticity. The findings will contribute to a better understanding of resistance mechanisms and support the development of more effective therapeutic strategies.

• Discordant_Monozygotic_Twins_ALS(Genetics)

  Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease. Regarding genetic factors, pathogenetic mutations in more than 35 genes have been identified as playing a role in disease pathogenesis. However, a substantial portion of ALS heritability remains unaccounted for, pointing to the potential involvement of additional genetic and epigenetic factors. For this reason, we conducted a multi-omics study on a monozygotic twin pair discordant for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, performing whole exome sequencing, transcriptomic and epigenetic analyses to gain crucial insights into underlying pathogenetic disease mechanisms. Here, we share genetic data.

• Sequencing data for Clinical Trial

  This study is a tri-institutional Phase 1/randomized Phase 2 trial, bevacizumab-naïve rHGA patients were randomized to either LITT (laser interstitial thermal therapy) plus pembrolizumab (LITT+PEM) or non-LITT surgery plus pembrolizumab (NLS+PEM). Randomization ceased after 21 patients when emerging data showed limited adjuvant ICI (immune checkpoint inhibitors) benefit, and the next 24 patients all received LITT+PEM. The goal of the trial is to use LITT, a minimally invasive cytoreductive approach, to prime these “cold” tumors for enhanced ICI response. rHGA= high-grade astrocytoma

• Whole-genome methylation profiling of menstrual stem cells identifies novel biomarkers for endometriosis

  Endometriosis, despite its high prevalence, is underdiagnosed and poorly managed due to lack of clinically validated biomarkers and pathophysiological insight. Menstrual bloodderived stem cells (MenSCs) have been implicated in disease pathogenesis, but their diagnostic potential remains unexplored. We conducted a clinical study (n=42; 19 endometriosis, 23 controls) to assess whether DNA methylation profiles of freshly isolated MenSCs can identify disease-specific biomarkers. Whole-genome methylation sequencing revealed differentially methylated regions (DMRs) enriched in genes linked to hallmarks of endometriosis (e.g., inflammation, tissue remodelling, development). These DMRs robustly distinguished cases from controls, independent of technical and clinical variables. Machine learning models trained and validated on these DMRs achieved high diagnostic performance (specificity 83%, sensitivity 79%). Integration with an independent single-cell RNA sequencing dataset showed that the DMRs may modulate gene expression, further supporting their biological relevance. These findings position MenSC DNA methylation profiling as a promising, non-invasive approach for early endometriosis diagnosis and personalised care.

• cfDNA Methylomes for HCC Detection and Postoperative Monitoring

  To overcome the limitations of current ctDNA-based HCC detection, specifically mutational profiling, we propose quantifying cfDNA methylation levels using cfMeDIP-seq and evaluating its capacity for HCC detection and post-surgery recurrence monitoring. This approach aims to reveal the clonal dynamics of HCC during surgery and upon relapse. Our preliminary data and analyzed results demonstrate that tumor-agnostic cfDNA methylomes can accurately detect HCC and predict recurrence after liver resection or transplantation. This method could have significant implications for the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of HCC.

• Single-nucleus RNA-seq of human fetal liver hematopoiesis

  The fetal liver is the primary haematopoietic organ during early human development, yet the timing and regulatory mechanisms governing blood formation remain incompletely understood. To define the cellular, transcriptional, and epigenetic changes underlying human fetal liver hematopoiesis over development, we generated a high-resolution, time-resolved single-nucleus multiome atlas of human fetal liver spanning 5–18 post-conception weeks (PCW) for CD45+CD235- cells. In total, 308,021 high-quality nuclei from 53 donors were profiled using paired chromatin accessibility and transcriptomic modalities. This study is for the gene expression.

• Molecular analysis of circulating tumour cells identifies distinct profiles in chemosensitive and chemorefractory patients with small cell lung cancer

  In a search for profiles that distinguish chemosensitive versus chemorefractory SCLC disease, we examined copy number aberrations (CNA) in circulating tumour cells (CTCs) from pre-treatment SCLC blood samples. A CNA classifier was generated from 88 CTCs isolated from 13 patients (training set) then verified in 18 additional patients (112 CTC samples) (testing set) and in six SCLC patient-derived CTC explants explant tumours. These data highlight the potential utility of CTCs for molecular profiling and stratification of SCLC patients in future clinical trials.

• Whole_exome_sequencing_of_young_onset_Primary_Sclerosing_Cholangitis

  Primary sclerosing chloangitis is a rare autoimmune disease of the liver (prevalence =10/100,000) with a mean age of onset of 40 years. We are currently undertaking GWASand immunochip experiments to identify loci underlying PSC susceptibility. Through ourcollaborators at the University of Calgary we have access to DNA from three parent-offspringtrios where the children required liver transplants due to PSC before the age of 9. These areextremely rare cases indeed and we believe that exome-sequencing represents a powerfulmeans of identifying the causal mutation underlying this severe phenotype.
