• Mortality and risk of progression to adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma in patients with HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis

  Human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV)-1 causes the functionally debilitating disease HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/ tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) as well as adult T-cell leukemia lymphoma (ATLL). Although there were concerns that the mortality of HAM/TSP could be affected by the development of ATLL, prospective evidence was lacking in this area. In this 5-year prospective cohort study, we determined the mortality, prevalence, and incidence of ATLL in 527 HAM/TSP patients. The standard mortality ratio of HAM/TSP patients was 2.25, and ATLL was one of the major causes of death (5/33 deaths). ATLL prevalence and incidence in these patients were 3.0% and 3.81 per 1,000 person-years, respectively. To identify patients at a high risk of developing ATLL, flow cytometry, Southern blotting, and targeted sequencing data were analyzed in a separate cohort of 218 HAM/TSP patients. In 17% of the HAM/TSP patients, we identified an increase in T-cells positive for cell adhesion molecule 1 (CADM1), a marker for ATLL and HTLV-1 infected cells. Genomic analysis of these patients revealed that somatic mutations of HTLV-1 infected cells were seen in 90% of the cases and 11% of them had dominant clone and developed ATLL in the longitudinal observation. In this study, we were able to demonstrate for the first time that the increased mortality in patients with HAM/TSP and a significant effect of ATLL on their prognosis. Having dominant clonal expansion of HTLV-1- infected cells with ATLL-associated somatic mutations may be important characteristics of patients with HAM/TSP who are at an increased risk of developing ATLL.

• Genome-wide chromatin accessibility profiling of primary human glomerular and kidney cortex tubular outgrowth cultures

  We generated primary cultures from mechanically isolated kidney glomeruli (filtration unit of the nephron) which are composed of podocytes and mesangial cells. In parallel, we generated primary kidney cortex tubule cell cultures, which are composed primarily of proximal tubule cells. Early passage cultures of these two cell types were subjected to chromatin accessibility profiling (DNase-Seq) and gene expression profiling (RNA-Seq). We found thousands of dynamically regulated enhancers in both cell types that potentially regulate nearby and distal target genes that are differentially expressed. These data will be useful for understanding the epigenomic regulation of gene transcription in key kidney cell types.

• Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type 1 causes impaired anti-microbial immunity through a pathogenic lipid metabolism-mTOR circuit

  Mendelian diseases that present with immune-mediated disorders can provide insights into the molecular mechanisms that drive inflammation. Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) types 1 and 4 are caused by defective vesicle trafficking involving the BLOC-3 complex. The presence of inflammatory complications such as Crohn’s disease-like inflammation and lung fibrosis in these patients remains enigmatic. Using mass cytometry we observe an augmented inflammatory monocyte compartment in HPS1 patient peripheral blood that may be associated with a TNF - and IL-1α-dominated cytokine dysregulation. HPS1 patient monocyte-derived macrophages express an inflammatory TNF-OSM mRNA gene signature and changes in lipid metabolism. Using stimulation experiments and lysosomal proteomics we show that defective lipid metabolism drives RAB32-dependent mTOR signaling, facilitated by the accumulation of mTOR on lysosomes. This pathogenic circuit translates into aberrant bacterial clearance, which can be rescued with mTORC1 inhibition. We reveal that a pathogenic lipid-mTOR signaling circuit acts as a metabolic checkpoint for defective anti-microbial activity. This mechanism may be relevant to the complex pathology of HPS1 patients featuring macrophage lipid accumulation, granuloma formation, defective anti-microbial activity and tissue inflammation. Lastly, this circuit may be present in a wider group of disorders with defective lipid metabolism and cholesterol accumulation.

• POU4F3 mutation screening in Japanese hearing loss patients.

  A variant in a transcription factor gene, POU4F3, is responsible for autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hereditary hearing loss, DFNA15. To date, 14 variants, including a whole deletion of POU4F3, have been reported to cause HL in various ethnic groups. In the present study, genetic screening for POU4F3 variants was carried out for a large series of Japanese hearing loss (HL) patients to clarify the prevalence and clinical characteristics of DFNA15 in the Japanese population. Massively parallel DNA sequencing of 68 target candidate genes was utilized in 2,549 unrelated Japanese HL patients (probands) to identify genomic variations responsible for HL. The detailed clinical features in patients with POU4F3 variants were collected from medical charts and analyzed. Novel 12 POU4F3 likely pathogenic variants (six missense variants, three frameshift variants, and three nonsense variants) were successfully identified in 15 probands (2.5%) among 602 families exhibiting autosomal dominant HL, whereas no variants were detected in the other 1,947 probands with autosomal recessive or inheritance pattern unknown HL. To obtain the audiovestibular configuration of the patients harboring POU4F3 variants, we collected audiograms and vestibular symptoms of the probands and their affected family members. Audiovestibular phenotypes in a total of 24 individuals from the 15 families possessing variants were characterized by progressive HL, with a large variation in the onset age and severity with or without vestibular symptoms observed. Pure-tone audiograms indicated the most prevalent configuration as mid-frequency HL type followed by high-frequency HL type, with asymmetry observed in approximately 20% of affected individuals. Analysis of the relationship between age and pure-tone average suggested that individuals with truncating variants showed earlier onset and slower progression of HL than did those with non-truncating variants. The present study showed that variants in POU4F3 were a common cause of autosomal dominant HL.

• UCSF Center for Reproductive Health (CRH) Research Bank

  The purpose of this study is to provide a reference profile of small extracellular RNAs in body fluids. These samples were originally obtained in a study that had a different purpose. The purpose of the original study was to add excess biological materials during the course of IVF treatment to a tissue bank. These biological materials included follicular fluid (the liquid that comes out of the ovary with the egg), granulosa cells (cells that surround the egg and help it grow), and other biological materials that help eggs, sperm, and embryos stay healthy and grow outside the body. These banked specimens would allow researchers to learn more about infertility and how to treat it, including studying how to identify the healthiest eggs, sperm, and embryos and how to help them stay healthy and grow.

• Ongoing_mutagenesis_RNAseq

  One of the key questions to be explored is whether the biological processes generating specific mutational signatures continue to operate in the human cancer cell lines or simply reflect past mutagenic activity which is no longer operative. To address this question, we have extracted mutational signatures from 1,000 cancer cell lines of diverse cancer types. Several cell lines with mutational signatures of interest were selected, subcloned over a defined period of time and their genomes sequenced. The increased load of the mutations representative of a specific mutational signature within the genome of a subclone when compared to its parental clone was informative of the on-going mutational processes. To further study the recent observation that some of the clones belonging to a same cell line acquired differencet numbers of mutations over a set period of time, their RNA will be subjected to RNA-sequencing to study their differences.

• Impact of Race and Genetic Factors on Beta Blocker Effectiveness in Heart Failure

  Heart Failure (HF) continues to be an enormous public health problem, despite the many advances in its pharmacotherapy over the past 25 years. The availability of multiple therapeutic options for HF requires individualization of therapy. However, there are currently insufficient tools to guide the optimal selection of therapy. The expansion of human genomic information has led to exciting new opportunities to improve the selection of drug therapy. In order to evaluate whether genetic variation impacts outcomes and drug response in heart failure, we performed a cohort study of patients with heart failure. Our overall plan was to recruit patients who have heart failure and receive treatment through HAP-HFMG. This allowed us to collect clinical outcomes, and quantify medication adherence via electronic pharmacy claims data. We collected whole blood samples for genetic analysis. We then tested whether genetic variants can predict patient outcomes (survival) in the context of their medical therapy (drug exposure). The primary medications of interest were beta blockers. Outcomes were modeled overall, accounting for the amount of exposure to the agent, and adjusting for baseline characteristics.

• Non-neuronal TGF-β–mediated extracellular matrix remodeling drives neurodegeneration in a PSP-Richardson syndrome model

  Progressive supranuclear palsy-Richardson syndrome (PSP-RS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder marked by rapid motor decline, cognitive impairment, and widespread accumulation of pathological tau. Yet, the molecular triggers of sporadic PSP-RS remain elusive. In this study, we combined patient-derived midbrain organoids with integrative multi-omics to uncover a previously unrecognized pathological cascade. At the core lies an early and aberrant activation of TGF-β signaling, which initiates profound extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and aberrant integrin-mediated focal adhesion. This cascade leads to persistent hyperactivation of PI3K/AKT and MAPK/ERK pathways, disrupting cytoskeletal integrity, impairing autophagy, promoting pathological tau phosphorylation and mislocalization, and ultimately driving synaptic degeneration. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed an ectopic expansion of vascular leptomeningeal-like cells (VLMCs), a collagen-producing population, accompanied by a broad ECM gene dysregulation unique to PSP-RS. Remarkably, pharmacological blockade of TGF-β, AKT, ERK, or mTOR signaling reversed tau pathology and restored synaptic integrity. These findings position TGF-β-driven ECM remodeling as a master regulator of neurodegeneration in sporadic PSP-RS and unveil multiple actionable therapeutic targets for this currently untreatable disease.

• Epigenetic memory of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination in monocyte-derived macrophages

  Immune memory is key to effective antimicrobial responses, but the impact of mRNA vaccines on this process is not fully understood. Our research shows that SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines alter the epigenetic profile of human macrophages, specifically enhancing histone acetylation, which is linked to immune training. Significant epigenetic changes, along with increased cytokine release, require two vaccine doses. However, these effects diminish over time but can be restored with a booster dose six months later, maintaining a strong pro-inflammatory response.

• 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.

• Integrated Epigenetic Maps of Human Embryonic, Extraembryonic and Adult Cells

  Working cooperatively with other Mapping Centers and the Data Coordination Center (EDACC) funded by this Roadmap mechanism we have comprehensively mapped the epigenomes of select human cells with significant relevance to complex human disease. Our effort has been focused on cells relevant to human health and complex disease including cells from the blood, brain, breast, skin, male germ cells, extraembryonic tissues and trophoblast, and U.S. Government-approved lines of human embryonic stem cells. We have incorporated high quality, homogeneous cells from males and females, and two predominant racial groups, and biological replicates of each cell type. The resulting comprehensive maps include up to 6 histone modifications selected for their opposing roles in regulating active and inactive chromatin (H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K9me3, H3K9ac, H3K27ac, H3K27me3, H3K36me3), DNA methylation, miRNA and gene expression, and for select cases whole genome shotgun sequence. Our cell and data production pipeline incorporates verification and data validation with independent methods, and operates under a model motivated by increased data production and decrease cost. Our group in conjunction with the other REMC teams, the EDACC, ENCODE, Epigenetics of Human Health and Disease centers and the NIH Roadmap program are developing methods, tools and reference epigenome maps for the research community that will make the promise of epigenetics in understand and treating human complex disease a reality. Our reference epigenomes will enable new disciplines including human population epigenetics, comparative epigenomics, neuroepigenetics, and therapeutic epigenetics for tissue regeneration and reversal of disease.

• High Frequency Ventilation in Premature Infants (HIFI-BioLINCC)

  Data Access NOTE: Please refer to the “Authorized Access” section below for information about how access to the data from this accession differs from many other dbGaP accessions. Objectives: To evaluate the hypothesis that high frequency oscillatory ventilation in preterm infants would reduce the incidence of mortality and pulmonary complications compared to conventional mechanical ventilation.Background: With the introduction of mechanical ventilation in preterm infants, mortality and morbidity significantly improved but remained high. The improvement in survival that accompanied the use of mechanical ventilation also brought about an increase in the incidence of pulmonary complications. The principal complication occurs in the form of bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Barotrauma and oxygen toxicity are considered to be in the pathogenesis for this disorder. Considerable interest in high frequency ventilation for preterm infants was generated when animal studies indicated high frequency ventilation to be effective in promoting gas exchange without apparent adverse effects. High Frequency Ventilation (HFV) delivers small tidal volumes at high frequencies of 4 to 15 Hz, and animal studies had indicated that HFV was associated with effective gas exchange, less barotrauma, and lower mean airway pressure. However, the efficacy and safety of HFV in preterm infants had not been studied. The HIFI Planning Phase was initiated in August 1984, and recruitment and intervention began in February, 1986. Follow-up studies continued thru September, 1988.Participants: A total of 673 infants were enrolled.Conclusions: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia incidence was similar in the two groups as was mortality and the need for ventilatory support during the first 28 days. There was a significantly greater rate of pneumoperitoneum of pulmonary origin in the high frequency group as was a greater incidence rate of intracranial hemorrhage.

• Spatial predictors of response to immunotherapy in microsatellite stable metastatic colorectal cancer

  Microsatellite stable (MSS) colorectal cancers (CRC) are largely unresponsive to immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI), prompting investigation into strategies to enhance sensitivity. The MAYA trial, which utilized temozolomide (TMZ) in MGMT-silenced MSS mCRC, hypothesized that TMZ-induced hypermutation could sensitize tumors to ICI. This phase II trial met its primary endpoint, demonstrating durable clinical responses with TMZ combined with ipilimumab and nivolumab. To elucidate factors in uencing response heterogeneity, we conducted multi-omic spatial pro ling of samples from patients who participated in the MAYA trial, including baseline and on-treatment tissue and blood specimens. While increased neoantigen load following TMZ exposure did not consistently predict for deep responses, spatial profiling revealed key determinants. Lymphocyte proportions, particularly CD8+KI67+ cells, within stromal and tumor compartments, along with macrophage composition (CD68+CD163+ cells) at the tumor-stromal interface, were predictive of response. Treatment pressures dynamically altered the tumor microenvironment composition and activated peripheral immune cells. This study is the first to identify spatial predictors of response to this promising novel treatment approach for MSS CRC.

• Genetic analysis of patients with Inherited Retinal Dystrophies (IRDs) using next generation sequencing to identify the causative variants

  Genetic analysis of patients with Inherited Retinal Dystrophies (IRDs) was carried out by performing Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS). The main purpose of this study is to identify simple and complex mutations responsible for IRD in patients. WGS was performed on selected affected and unaffected individuals using the Illumina HiSeqX10. The reads were aligned to human genome 19 (hg19) and variant calling was performed using Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK). The genotyping quality of single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and indels was assessed using the variant quality score recalibration approach implemented in GATK. Copy number variations (CNVs) were called using Genome STRiP and SpeedSeq. This large set of whole genome sequencing data from different ethnicity can be stored and shared through dbGaP. This data could serve as a source for checking frequencies of variants or the pathogenicity of selected variants in different ethnicities.

• Consortium on Asthma among African-ancestry Populations in the Americas (CAAPA)

  Asthma is a complex disease where the interplay between genetic factors and environmental exposures influences susceptibility and disease prognosis. Asthmatics of African descent tend to have more severe asthma and more severe clinical symptoms than individuals of European ancestry. Advances in genetic and genomic technologies have revolutionized gene discovery for several complex diseases, but going to the next step in gene discovery for asthma among populations of African descent requires considering unique characteristics of this ethnic group, including adequate sample sizes and population stratification due to (European and African) admixture. Thus far, coverage of common genetic markers both in public databases and commercially available SNP chips has been inadequate to detect and measure genetic associations among African admixed populations. The aim of this study was therefore to catalog genetic diversity in populations of African descent, especially those whose ancestry reflects the African Diaspora in the Americas.

• Immediate Postoperative Minimal Residual Disease Detection with MAESTRO Predicts Recurrence and Survival in Head and Neck Cancer Patients Treated with Surgery

  We selected 24 patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) who were surgically treated. MAESTRO, our ultrasensitive, tumor-informed, mutation enrichment sequencing assay, was applied in a pooled format (MAESTRO-Pool) to plasma samples collected from these patients at baseline (pre-op) and postoperatively. We show that detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) 1 to 9 days after surgery is associated with significantly worse survival. Many plasma samples also had tumor fractions detected below 100 parts-per-million, the detection limit for first-generation commercial assays, highlighting the need for more sensitive ctDNA assays. Here we provide whole genome sequencing of matched tumor biopsy and normal germline DNA from 24 patients that were used to identify somatic single nucleotide variants (SNVs) to be tracked using our MAESTRO-Pool assay.

• Long-read sequencing of saliva collected and stablized at room temperature in Oragene devices on the PacBio Revio

  Saliva collected in Oragene™ devices and extracted with Nanobind kits yields high‑molecular‑weight DNA suitable for PacBio HiFi whole‑genome sequencing, offering a convenient alternative to blood collection (“High-quality HMW DNA was obtained from all samples…”). Sequencing of paired saliva and blood samples on the Revio system produced comparable HiFi read lengths, yields, and 30–39× genome coverage. Methylation profiles were also highly similar, with minor differences attributable to small amounts of non‑human DNA present in saliva (“DNA extracted from saliva is typically ~75–95% human…”). Variant calling using PacBio WGS pipelines showed high concordance between saliva and blood from the same donor for both SNVs and structural variants. These results demonstrate that saliva enables reliable, high‑throughput HiFi sequencing workflows with performance equivalent to blood.

• Blood Somatic Mutations in TCGA Donors Suffering from Solid Tumors

  Blood somatic mutations identified across 8,530 solid tumor patients in TCGA cohort. We reasoned that low-coverage whole-genome sequencing of blood samples routinely carried out in cancer genomics projects may be repurposed to detect clonal hematopoiesis (CH). Thus, inspired by a previous approach to identify early mutations in the development of the hematopoietic system, we implemented a pipeline to systematically carry out this "reverse" somatic mutation calling on the paired blood/tumor samples. Blood somatic mutations were called using a 'reverse' approach, in which the tumor sample taken from each patient was used as control of their germline genome. Blood somatic mutations are thus detected as variants in the blood (with respect to the human reference genome) that are absent in the tumor sample. The variant calling was carried out in our in house cluster on downloaded blood/tumor BAM files. The matched blood and tumoral BAM files -- masked and deduplicated using GATK -- of 8,530 whole-exome patients were obtained as described above. The variant calling was carried out using Strelka2 (employing default parameters) with the blood sample as the tumoral input and the tumor sample as control (reverse calling). All variants with two or more supporting reads matching the caller PASS filter and with VAF<0.5 were kept. Mutations in lowly mappable regions as defined by the DUST algorithm (k=30) and UMAP68 (36-kmers) were excluded. Contiguous variants were merged into double-base substitutions. Variants with greater frequency across the cohorts than the DNMT3A R882H or JAK2 V617F hotspot in a cohort-specific Panel of Normals and in gnomAD v2.1 were removed. This was equivalent to discarding variants present in these datasets with an allele frequency greater than 0.008 in PoN TCGA and 0.0003 in gnomAD v2.1. Additionally, common SNPs as defined by the dbSNP 151 Common UCSC track and dbSNP were excluded. Mutations within segmental duplications, simple repeats and masked regions as defined in UCSC tracks were also removed. Finally, samples with the mutation count above the 97.5 percentile of the mutation burden across the cohort were deemed unreliable and excluded for further analyses. We call the set of variants obtained after the application of these filters the full set. A more conservative subset of somatic mutations was generated from the full set of blood somatic mutations. To this end, we applied MosaicForecast, a software designed to phase mutations to polymorphisms with the aim of identifying somatic mutations in a small number of cells and also predict mosaicism for the unphased ones with a random forest classifier. As a result, we obtained a subset of mosaic-phased mutations, and a subset of mutations likely to be somatic (mosaic set).In order to obtain access to this study, please first obtain access to TCGA study (phs000178).

  Data Access NOTEPlease refer to the "Authorized Access" section below for information about how access to the data from this accession. Access differs from many other dbGaP accessions. BiospecimensAccess to Biospecimens is through the NHLBI Biologic Specimen and Data Repository Information Coordinating Center (BioLINCC). Biospecimens from TOPCAT include Buffy Coat, DNA, Plasma, Serum, Urine, and Whole Blood. Please note that use of biospecimens in genetic research is subject to a tiered consent. Objectives The TOPCAT trial evaluated the effectiveness of aldosterone antagonist therapy in reducing cardiovascular mortality, aborted cardiac arrest, and heart failure hospitalization in patients who have heart failure with preserved systolic function. Background Many patients with heart failure have a normal, or near-normal, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Such patients share similar signs and symptoms as patients who have heart failure and a reduced LVEF, as well as an impaired quality of life and a poor prognosis. However, at the time of TOPCAT, the benefit of medical therapies for heart failure were limited to those with a reduced LVEF. Due to a lack of favorable evidence from clinical trials, clinical guidelines offered no specific recommendations for the management of heart failure in patients with preserved LVEF, except for attention to coexisting conditions. Among patients with heart failure and a reduced LVEF and those with myocardial infarction complicated by heart failure and left ventricular dysfunction, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists have been shown to be effective in reducing overall mortality and hospitalizations for heart failure. In small mechanistic studies involving patients with heart failure and preserved left ventricular function, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists improved measures of diastolic function. However, rigorous testing was needed regarding their effect on clinical outcomes in patients with preserved LVEF. Therefore, the TOPCAT trial was initiated to determine whether treatment with spironolactone, an aldosterone antagonist, would improve clinical outcomes in patients with symptomatic heart failure and a relatively preserved LVEF. Participants A total of 3445 participants were enrolled, with 1722 assigned to the spironolactone group and 1723 assigned to the placebo group. Among these, 2464 participants were enrolled via the hospitalization stratum and 981 were enrolled via the BNP stratum. Design TOPCAT was a phase 3, multicenter, international, randomized, double-blind, and placebo controlled trial. Eligible participants were randomly assigned to receive either spironolactone or placebo in a 1:1 ratio. Randomization was stratified according to whether the patient met the criterion for previous hospitalization or BNP elevation. The baseline visit included assessment of socio-demographics, physical characteristics, medical history, lifestyle factors, laboratory measures, electrocardiography variables and health-related quality of life and functional status. Study drugs were initially administered at a dose of 15 mg once daily, which was increased as tolerated to a maximum of 45 mg daily during the first four months after randomization. Subsequent dose adjustments were made as required and subjects continued to receive other treatments for heart failure and co-existing illnesses. Measurement of potassium and creatinine levels was required within 1 week after a change in the study-drug dose and at each scheduled study visit. Follow-up visits to monitor symptoms, medications, and events and to dispense study drug were scheduled every four months during the subject's first year on the study, and every six months thereafter. The mean follow-up interval was 3.3 years in each study group. Repository blood and urine samples were collected at the baseline and 1 year visits from consenting subjects. The primary endpoint was a composite of cardiovascular mortality, aborted cardiac arrest or hospitalization for the management of heart failure. Secondary endpoints included all-cause mortality, hospitalization for heart failure management, new onset of diabetes mellitus or atrial fibrillation, and quality of life. A subset of subjects also participated in the Echocardiography or Echocardiography and Vascular Stiffness ancillary studies. Echocardiography, and additionally tonometry in the Echocardiography and Vascular Stiffness study, were performed at baseline and at either 12 or 18 months following randomization. If the subject was already enrolled in the TOPCAT trial at the time the ancillary study was initiated, but had not yet reached the 18 month visit, baseline was determined via a retrospective analysis performed on any echocardiographic images completed within 60 days prior to TOPCAT enrollment and no tonometry was performed if applicable. Conclusions In patients with heart failure and a preserved ejection fraction, treatment with spironolactone did not significantly reduce the incidence of the primary composite outcome of death from cardiovascular causes, aborted cardiac arrest, or hospitalization for the management of heart failure. However, the drug reduced the secondary endpoint of heart failure hospitalization incidence.

• RNA-Seq of human longitudinal whole blood samples from PCR-positive and PCR-negative adults following controlled inoculation with Influenza A H3N2 virus.

  Understanding of the transcriptomic profile of individuals in early influenza infection is limited. To investigate this, longitudinal whole-blood samples (n=178) were taken from adult participants following controlled inoculation with Influenza A H3N2 virus (sampling at baseline (0) and days 1, 2, 3, 7, 10 and 14 post-challenge). Most participants became influenza PCR-positive; a minority remained PCR-negative. Total RNA was extracted from PAXgene tubes before undergoing globin and rRNA depletion. DNA libraries were constructed using the NEBNext® Ultra™ II Directional RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina. All samples were then sequenced using Illumina NovaSeq 6000.

• Tumor-derived cell lines as pharmacogenomic models to predict therapeutic vulnerabilities in hepatocellular carcinoma

  Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a heterogeneous aggressive malignancy with low efficacy of current therapies at advanced stages. We integrated molecular and pharmacological profiling of a large panel of liver cancer cell lines (LCCL) to assess their clinical relevance as HCC preclinical models and identify new effective therapies and biomarkers of response. Here, we performed multi-omic analysis including whole-exome, RNA and microRNA sequencing in a series 34 LCCL. Molecular profiles of LCCL and primary HCC were compared and we searched for molecular features associated with drug response. Our panel of LCCL faithfully recapitulated the most aggressive molecular “proliferation class” of HCC.

• Susceptibility genes for the development of SLE during treatment of IBD

  A potential and very serious side effect of treating IBD with antiTNFa therapies (the currentgold standard) is the development of systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE). This side effect israre and unpredictable. Out of several thousand cases having received treatment, theUniversity of Calgary have accumulated 12 individuals with full phenotyping and novelserological antibody discovery panel data. We propose to exome sequence these samples inan effort to identify rare highly-penetrant variants that could be underlying this severephenotype.

• Single cell and spatial transcriptomics of adult human adrenal glands

  Adrenal glands are endocrine organs secreting a variety of hormones, known to undergo tissue remodelling through constant cellular turnover. Here we employed single cell and spatial transcriptomics to investigate thoroughly adult human adrenals from 14 individuals with a focus on adrenocortical cell types and cell states. By including both male and female tissue donors of various ages, we extended the study to sexual dimorphic features of the adult gland.

• Multiomic Sequencing of Paired Primary and Metastatic Small Bowel Carcinoids

  Small bowel carcinoids are insidious tumors that often have metastatic spread at the time of diagnosis. Limited studies on the mutational landscape of carcinoids indicate that the tumors have a relatively low mutational burden. Loss of chromosome 18q and loss of CDKN1B have been reported in a minority of tumors. The development of targeted therapies will depend upon the identification of mutations that drive the pathogenesis and metastasis of carcinoid tumors.

• Japan PBC-GWAS Haplotype Study

  Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) susceptibility loci have largely been discovered through single SNP association testing. In this study, we report genic haplotype patterns associated with PBC risk genome-wide in two Japanese cohorts. Among the 74 genic PBC risk haplotype candidates we detected with a novel methodological approach in a discovery cohort of 1,937 Japanese, nearly two-thirds were replicated (49 haplotypes, Bonferroni-corrected P<6.8x10-4) in an independent Japanese cohort (N=949). Along with corroborating known PBC-associated loci (TNFSF15, HLA-DRA), risk haplotypes may potentially model cis-interactions that regulate gene expression. For example, one replicated haplotype association (9q32-9q33.1, OR=1.7, P=3.0x10-21) consists of intergenic SNPs outside of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region that overlap regulatory histone mark peaks in liver and blood cells, and are significantly associated with TNFSF8 expression in whole blood. We also replicated a novel haplotype association involving non-HLA SNPs mapped to UMAD1 (7p21.3; OR=15.2, P=3.9x10-9) that overlap enhancer peaks in liver and memory Th cells. Our analysis demonstrates the utility of haplotype association analyses in discovering and characterizing PBC susceptibility loci.

• Epigenomics and Single-cell Sequencing Define a Developmental Hierarchy in Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis

  Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare neoplasm predominantly affecting children. It occupies a hybrid position between cancers and inflammatory diseases, and it provides an attractive model for studying cancer development. To explore the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of LCH and its characteristic clinical heterogeneity, we investigated the transcriptomic and epigenomic diversity in primary LCH lesions. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we identified multiple recurrent types of LCH cells within these biopsies, including putative LCH progenitor cells and several subsets of differentiated LCH cells. We confirmed the presence of proliferative LCH cells in all analysed biopsies using immunohistochemistry, and we defined an epigenomic and gene-regulatory basis of the different LCH cell subsets by chromatin accessibility profiling. In summary, our single-cell analysis of LCH uncovered an unexpected degree of cellular, transcriptomic, and epigenomic heterogeneity among LCH cells, indicative of complex developmental hierarchies in LCH lesions.

• Genome Wide Association Study of Serum Creatinine during Vancomycin Therapy and Vancomycin Pharmacokinetics

  The goal of this study was to identify genetic variants associated with risk for acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients being treated with vancomycin and genetic variants associated with variability in vancomycin pharmacokinetics. AKI is a common adverse drug event and known complication of vancomycin therapy. Known risk factors fail to accurately predict renal toxicity. Our hypothesis, that genetic variants modify the risk of AKI, was tested by performing genome-wide association and linear regression in 429 patients of European descent using the outcome of peak serum creatinine while on vancomycin. We also tested the hypothesis that genetic variants associate with vancomycin pharmacokinetics, using vancomycin trough levels and calculated renal elimination rate constant as outcomes.

• Whole genome sequencing data of paediatric patients with BCR::ABL1 acute lymphoblastic leukemia

  The BCR::ABL1 fusion results from the t(9;22)(q34;11.2) translocation, also known as the Philadelphia chromosome. In children, BCR::ABL1-positive leukemia is rare, accounting for approximately 3% of cases. The BCR::ABL1 oncoprotein activates multiple signaling pathways that drive cell proliferation. Historically, this subtype was associated with an extremely poor prognosis; however, the incorporation of tyrosine kinase inhibitors into therapy has markedly improved outcomes, with overall survival now approaching 80% in pediatric patients. Relapse most commonly occurs through the emergence of clones harboring kinase domain mutations, yet 30–40% of relapses arise in the absence of such mutations, a phenomenon that remains poorly understood.
