• HSC_population_dynamics___TG001_2_samples

  My research project aims to use the clonal dynamics of spontaneously occurring somatic mutations to answer fundamental questions about human haematopoietic stem cell (HSC) biology. The four major questions I will address are: 1. How do age and aging affect normal human HSC dynamics in vivo? 2. How do in vivo perturbations, particularly chemotherapy and increased levels of reactive oxygen species, affect HSC population dynamics? 3. Is response to in vitro perturbation heritable and/or correlated with other features such as age of individual and contribution of the lineage to peripheral blood? 4. How are HSC dynamics altered in people with early driver mutations (clonal haematopoiesis)?

• Molecular phenotyping of MCA/ID patients to improve diagnosis

  De novo structural variants are frequently identified in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders, but the genes driving their phenotypes are often unknown. In this study we performed Whole Genome Sequencing, RNA-sequencing and ATAC-sequencing on samples of 51 patients with intellectual disability and/or multiple congenital anomalies and their biological parents (when available). The goals of the study were to gain more insights in the molecular consequences of (complex) genomic rearrangements and to improve the genetic diagnosis of patients carrying such rearrangements. Data is divided in four separate datasets based on type of source material and data access restrictions due to consent.

• Innate myeloid cell sbuset-specific gene expression patterns in the human colon are altered in Crohn's disease patients

  Background: There is a heterogeneous subset innate myeloid cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells, in the human intestinal lamina propria. Several studies have demonstrated that these cells contribute to the maintenance of gut homeostasis through induction of inflammatory responses and tolerance via cell type-specific mechanisms; whereas, disrupted innate immune responses are implicated in the pathogenesis of Crohn?s disease. However, the detailed mechanisms by which each innate myeloid subset regulates gut homeostasis and inflammation largely remains unknown. Aim: We aimed to clarify the comprehensive gene expression profiles of innate myeloid cell subsets in the lamina propria from normal human colons (NC) and the inflamed colon sites from patients with Crohn?s disease (CDi). Methods: We performed RNA-sequencing analysis and precise bioinformatics analysis on three innate myeloid cell subsets, CD14-CD11c-, CD14-CD11c+, and CD14+CD11c+CD163low cells from NC and CDi. Results: Transcriptional analysis of the three subsets from the NC showed distinct gene expression patterns and gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis revealed the associated innate myeloid subset-specific biological process (BP) terms. In addition, changes in gene expression patterns were observed in innate myeloid subsets from CDi. Furthermore, the core GO-BP terms for the genes upregulated in the innate myeloid cells from CDi were distinct from those found in NC. Conclusion: Our data identified the innate myeloid cell subset-specific transcriptomes and the associated enriched GO-BP terms in the NC and found these patterns were altered in CDi.

• Pharmacogenomics of Mercaptopurine Intolerance in Children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (AALL03N1)

  Mercaptopurine (MP) is the mainstay of curative therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to comprehensively identify the genetic basis of MP intolerance in children with ALL in AALL03N1. MP dose intensity was defined as prescribed dose divided by the planned protocol dose during maintenance therapy.  Germline variants in NUDT15 and TPMT were found to be strongly associated with MP intolerance in childhood ALL, which may have implications for treatment individualization in this disease.

• Biomarker Research for Anti EGFR Monoclonal Antibodies by Comprehensive Cancer Genomics

  The purpose of this study is to explore new biomarkers for predicting the effectiveness of an anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (anti-EGFR) antibody in patients with advanced colorectal cancer. The investigation involves analyzing the entire exome, conducting a genome-wide association study (GWAS), and analyzing copy number variations (CNVs) using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays. Genetic material from both cancerous and non-cancerous tissues, as well as blood samples from patients who received the antibody treatment, will be used. The goal is to identify genetic mutations and SNPs associated with treatment efficacy and adverse events, and to assess the correlation between their presence and treatment effectiveness using statistical methods.

• Immune-Related Adverse Events after Immune Checkpoint Blockade-Based Therapy are Associated with Improved Survival in Advanced Sarcoma

  Immune activation after immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) can lead to a unique group of adverse events (AEs), which have been associated with improved outcome in many carcinomas. The association between immune-related AEs (irAEs) and outcome in patients with sarcoma is not well studied. This study has two components: (1) a retrospective clinical study of irAEs among 131 patients treated with ICB at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and (2) an analysis of a subset of these patients who have whole transcriptome sequencing available for analysis. In the clinical study portion, we reviewed a cohort of patients with advanced sarcoma treated on prospective clinical trials utilizing ICB-based therapy between April 2017 and January 2020. The objectives were to pool the safety data from each trial, identify irAEs, and correlate them with best overall response by RECIST 1.1, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Association of irAEs with response and survival was assessed using a Cox regression model. A total of 131 patients were included. Forty-two (32%) had at least one irAE of any grade and 16 (12%) had at least one Grade ≥ 3 irAE. On Cox analysis adjusting for clinical covariates that were significant in the univariate setting, the hazard ratio (HR) for an irAE (HR 0.662, 95% CI 0.421 - 1.041) approached, but did not reach statistical significance for PFS (P = 0.074), while patients had a significantly lower HR for OS (HR 0.443, 95% CI 0.246 – 0.798; P = 0.007) compared to those without or before an irAE. Tumor samples with available RNA sequencing data were stratified by presence of an irAE to identify patterns of differential gene expression. In total, 71 unique patients had RNA sequencing available for analysis. The transcriptomes of 31 of these patients have been previously uploaded to dbGaP (phs002852), leaving 36 unique transcriptomes that have not been previously publicly shared. Three patients did not agree for their sequencing to be publicly shared. Therefore, 33 unique patient samples will be uploaded to this dbGaP study. Overall, this study found that gene expression profiling on baseline tumor samples from patients who had an irAE had higher numbers of tumor-infiltrating dendritic cells, CD8+ T cells, and regulatory T cells as well as upregulation of immune and inflammatory pathways.

• Peripheral blood DNA methylome in adalimumab-treated patients with rheumatoid arthritis

  Background and aims Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients are currently treated with biological agents mostly aimed at cytokine blockade such as anti-TNFα therapy. Currently, there are no biomarkers to predict therapy response to these agents. Here, we aimed to predict response to adalimumab (ADA) treatment in RA patients using DNA methylation in peripheral blood Methods DNA methylation profiling on whole peripheral blood from 92 RA patients before the start of adalimumab (ADA) was determined using Illumina HumanMethylationEPIC BeadChip Array. After 6 months, treatment response was assessed according to the Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) criteria for disease response. Patients were classified as responders (DAS28<3.2 or decrease of 1.2 points) or as non-responders (DAS28>5.1 or decrease of less than 0.6 points). Machine learning models were built with gradient boosting and stability selection models to predict response prior to ADA treatment with predictor DNA methylation markers. Results We demonstrated a 27-feature panel of DNA methylation markers or CpG classifiers that predict response in RA patients treated with ADA. Forty-nine patients were assigned as responder and 43 patients assigned as non-responders. We differentiate responders from non-responders with a high sensitivity (AUC 0.76). The predictor CpGs annotated to genes involved in immunological- and pathophysiological pathways related to RA such as T-cell signaling, B-cell pathology and angiogenesis. Conclusion Our findings indicate that DNA methylation signatures discriminate responders and non-responders to ADA treatment and can serve as a tool for therapy prediction.

• Molecular Analysis of Short- Versus Long-Term Survivors of High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma

  The underlying determinants for long-term survival (LTS, ≥10 years) versus short-term survival (STS, <3 years) of patients diagnosed with high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSC) are largely unknown. The present study sought to identify molecular predictors of LTS for women with HGSC. A cohort of 24 frozen HGSC samples (12 LTS and 12 STS) were collected and analyzed at DNA and RNA levels. Copy number variation and mutation did not indicate large differences between LTS and STS. From RNA-Seq analysis, 11 genes were found to be differentially expressed between the STS and LTS groups (fold change >2; false discovery rate <0.01). In the validation cohort, transmembrane protein 62 (TMEM62) was found to be related to LTS. Our in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrate that restoring TMEM62 may be a novel approach for treatment of HGSC. These findings may have implications for biomarker and intervention strategies to help improve patient outcomes.

• NHLBI TOPMed: Genomic Summary Results for the Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine Program

  The NHLBI Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine (TOPMed) program aims to identify the genetic basis of variation in biomedical phenotypes, with emphasis on those related to heart, lung, blood and sleep disorders, as part of a broader Precision Medicine Initiative. The TOPMed program has provided whole genome sequencing (WGS) to over 80 different studies that had previously recruited participants and collected extensive phenotype data. Many TOPMed investigators affiliated with these studies have organized their activities into phenotype-focused Working Groups and have developed genotype-phenotype association projects. These analyses have resulted in valuable cross-study Genomic Summary Results (GSR) that include whole genome association test results of both common and rare variants. Most of the analyses include data from multiple studies, some of which are based on sensitive populations, precluding public sharing of GSR. This dbGaP accession provides a mechanism for sharing sensitive GSR, using the controlled-access mechanisms of dbGaP to provide protections for sensitive populations.

• Coding and non-coding drivers of mantle cell lymphoma identified through exome and genome sequencing

  Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an uncommon B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that is incurable with standard therapies. The genetic drivers of this cancer have not been firmly established and the features that contribute to differences in clinical course remain limited. To extend our understanding of the biological pathways involved in this malignancy, we performed a large-scale genomic analysis of MCL using data from 51 exomes and 34 genomes alongside previously published exome cohorts. To confirm our findings, we re-sequenced the genes identified in the exome cohort in 191 MCL tumors, each having clinical follow-up data. We confirmed the prognostic association of TP53 and NOTCH1 mutations. Our sequencing revealed novel recurrent non-coding mutations surrounding a single exon of the HNRNPH1 gene. In RNA-seq data from 103 of these cases, MCL tumors with these mutations had a distinct imbalance of HNRNPH1 isoforms. This altered splicing of HNRNPH1 was associated with inferior outcomes in MCL and showed a significant increase in protein expression by immunohistochemistry. We describe a functional role for these recurrent non-coding mutations in disrupting an auto-regulatory feedback mechanism, thereby deregulating HNRNPH1 protein expression. Taken together, these data strongly implicate a role for aberrant regulation of mRNA processing in MCL pathobiology.

• Mitochondrial DNA mutations contribute to autism and also to the characteristics of mitochondrial disorders present in patients with autism spectrum disorders

  Intellectual disability (ID) is common among autism spectrum disorder (ASD) patients. Also, evidence from many fields of medicine has documented multiple non-CNS physiological abnormalities associated with ASD, suggesting that, in some individuals, ASD arises from systemic, rather than organ-specific abnormalities. Oxidative phosphorylation and mitochondrial dysfunction are frequently reported in ASD and ID and can be due to mitochondrial DNA mutations. Therefore, the objective of the study was to analyze the mitochondrial DNA of ID subjects with ASD (N=98) and without ASD (N=95) to identify putative pathogenic variants that could be associated with ID or ASD. The genome of reference used in this is study is NC_012920.1 (rCRS) (Homo sapiens mitochondrion).

• Spatiotemporal Transcriptome of the Human Brain

  Comprehensive knowledge about the spatiotemporal dynamics of the brain transcriptome is essential for a better understanding of neurodevelopment, sexual dimorphism, and evolution, as well as our increased susceptibility to certain brain disorders. We generated and analyzed genome-wide exon-level transcriptome data from 16 brain regions of 57 postmortem human brains, spanning from embryonic development to late adulthood and representing males and females of multiple ethnicities. We also performed genome-wide genotyping of 2.5 million SNPs and assessed genome normality for all donors. This study provides a comprehensive, publicly available dataset on the spatiotemporal human brain transcriptome and new insights into the transcriptional foundations of human neurodevelopment.

• Detection of Cancer Mutations by Urine Liquid Biopsy in Bladder Cancer Patients

  The management of bladder cancer faces multiple challenges concerning the diagnostics and fol-low-up approaches. The standard diagnostic test is invasive cystoscopy. Urine cytology and re-cently proposed urine-based biomarkers still could not replace cystoscopy, thus prompting calls for improvements. Here, we explore urine liquid biopsy to detect cancer mutations for therapeutic and prognostic assessment and subsequently evaluate the utility of urine as a suitable specimen in diagnosing bladder cancer. Our findings show that the analysis of pre-and post-operative urine enables the characterization of specific tumor mutations, which can be used to diagnose and evaluate a patient’s prognosis and therapy response.

• Genome-wide DNA methylation sequencing identifies epigenetic perturbations in the upper airways under long-term exposure to moderate levels of ambient air pollution

  While the link between exposure to high levels of ambient particulate matter (PM) and increased incidences of respiratory and cardiovascular diseases is widely recognized, recent epidemiological studies have shown that low PM concentrations are equally associated with adverse health effects. As DNA methylation is one of the main mechanisms by which cells regulate and stabilize gene expression, changes in the methylome could constitute early indicators of dysregulated signaling pathways. So far, little is known about PM-associated DNA methylation changes in the upper airways, the first point of contact between airborne pollutants and the human body. Here, we focused on cells of the upper respiratory tract and assessed their genome-wide DNA methylation pattern to explore exposure-associated early regulatory changes. Using a mobile epidemiological laboratory, nasal lavage samples were collected from a cohort of 60 adults that lived in districts with records of low (Simmerath) or moderate (Stuttgart) PM10 levels in Germany. PM10 concentrations were verified by particle measurements on the days of the sample collection and genome-wide DNA methylation was determined by enzymatic methyl sequencing at single-base resolution. We identified 231 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) between moderately and lowly PM10 exposed individuals. A high proportion of DMRs overlapped with regulatory elements, and DMR target genes were involved in pathways regulating cellular redox homeostasis and immune response. In addition, we found distinct changes in DNA methylation of the HOXA gene cluster whose methylation levels have previously been linked to air pollution exposure but also to carcinogenesis in several instances. The findings of this study suggest that regulatory changes in upper airway cells occur at PM10 levels below current European thresholds, some of which may be involved in the development of air pollution-related diseases.

• Intratumoural heterogeneity and immune modulation in lung adenocarcinoma of female smokers and never smokers

  Lung cancer is still the leading cause of cancer death worldwide despite declining smoking prevalence in industrialised countries. Although lung cancer is highly associated with smoking status, a significant proportion of lung cancer cases develop in patients who never smoked, with an observable bias towards female never smokers. A better understanding of lung cancer heterogeneity and immune system involvement during tumour evolution and progression in never smokers is therefore highly warranted. We employed single nucleus transcriptomics of surgical lung adenocarcinoma (LADC) and normal lung tissue samples from patients with or without smoking history. Immune cells as well as fibroblasts and endothelial cells respond to tobacco smoke exposure by inducing a highly inflammatory state in normal lung tissue. In the presence of LADC, we identified differentially expressed transcriptional programmes in macrophages and cancer-associated fibroblasts, providing insight into how the niche favours tumour progression. Within tumours, we distinguished eight subpopulations of neoplastic cells in female smokers and never smokers. Through pseudotemporal ordering, we inferred a trajectory towards two differentiated tumour cell states implicated in cancer progression and invasiveness. A proliferating cell population sustaining tumour growth exhibits differential immune modulating signatures in both patient groups. Our results resolve cellular heterogeneity and immune interactions in LADC, with a special emphasis on female never smokers and implications for the design of therapeutic approaches.

• Analysis of Loose Ends in Cancer Genome Structure

  Short-read sequencing (SRS) forms the basis of our understanding of cancer genome evolution, yet it is widely thought to be inadequate for detecting structural variants (SVs). To understand the nature of cancer SVs missed by SRS, we introduce the concept of "loose ends" - sites of missing rearrangements revealed by balancing copy number (CN) across the genomic intervals and adjacencies of a genome graph.
