• Age-specific nasal epithelial responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection : GEX

  In this study, we investigate differences in the cellular landscape and functionality of ex vivo cultured nasal epithelial cells in response to SARS-CoV-2 infection across different age groups: paediatric (<12y), adult (30-50y), and older adults (>70y). We unravel, that while ciliated cells serve as primary sites for viral replication consistently across all age groups, a distinctive goblet inflammatory subtype emerges in infected paediatric cultures, characterized by heightened expression of interferon-stimulated genes and incomplete viral replication. Conversely, older adult cultures infected with SARS-CoV-2 exhibit a proportional surge in basaloid-like cells, which not only facilitate viral dissemination but also demonstrate associations with altered epithelial repair pathways.

• Autism Genome Project (AGP) Consortium - Whole Genome Association Study of over 1,500 Parent-Offspring Trios - Stage I and II

  Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are highly heritable (~90%), yet the underlying genetic determinants are largely unknown. To understand the genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity in ASDs, we analyzed 2,611 strictly defined ASD families with over 1,000,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and applied multiple analytical strategies to examine these families for SNPs and Copy Number Variation (CNVs) affecting risk for ASDs. Secondary analyses examined associations in more homogenous subgroups. Furthermore, the use of large control datasets permitted contrasting case and control samples and addressed the potential increased burden of rare CNVs in ASD. Our data have allowed us to discern key features of the ASD genomic architecture, find new susceptibility loci, and chart a course for future studies in ASDs.

• Transcriptomic Analysis of Pluripotent Stem Cell-Based Model of Human Amniogenesis

  The amniotic epithelium is the innermost layer of the amniochorionic membrane that physically divides the maternal and fetal environments. Amniogenesis is initiated during implantation in humans. In implanting blastocysts, the pluripotent epiblast cells undergo apical-basal polarization to form a cyst with a central lumen, the future amniotic cavity. This event is followed by the fate transition of pluripotent epiblast cells at the uterine-proximal pole of the cyst to squamous amniotic ectoderm, forming a sharp boundary between amnion and pluripotent epiblast portions of the cyst. To enable mechanistic investigations into amnion fate progression, several in vitro models based on human pluripotent stem cells were recently developed. In this study, transcriptomic features of human pluripotent stem cell-derived amniogenesis models were examined.

• Single-Cell ATAC and RNA Sequencing of Human Breast Cancer Reveals Salient Cancer-Specific Enhancers

  Matched single-cell chromatin accessibility sequencing (scATAC-seq) and single-cell transcriptomic sequencing (scRNA-seq) were performed for 12 human breast tumor samples, 4 normal human mammary reduction samples, and 4 human breast cancer cell lines (HCC1143, SUM149PT, MCF7, and T47D). Both scATAC-seq and scRNA-seq assays resolved the underlying cellular heterogeneity in chromatin accessibility and transcriptional output for each patient sample. In this work, we quantitatively linked variation in chromatin accessibility to gene expression across malignant and non-malignant cell types from patient samples. We then showed that our findings were recapitulated in the breast cancer cell line samples. These data will serve as an important resource for the single-cell genomics and breast cancer research communities.

• Sampling of multi-centric lower grade glioma influences management and provides insight into gliomagenesis

  Rare multicentric lower-grade gliomas (LGG) represent a unique opportunity to study the heterogeneity between distinct tumor foci in a single patient, and to infer their origins and parallel patterns of evolution. In this study, we integrate clinical features, histology and immunohistochemistry for 4 patients with multicentric LGG, arising both synchronously and metachronously. For 3 patients we analyze the phylogeny of the lesions using exome sequencing, including one case with a total of 8 samples from the two lesions. We show that each tumor in multicentric LGG cases may arise independently or may diverge very early in their development, presenting as genetically and histologically distinct tumors suggesting that comprehensive sampling of these lesions can significantly alter diagnosis and management.

• Genomic and immune profiling of pre-invasive lung adenocarcinoma

  Adenocarcinoma in situ and minimally invasive adenocarcinoma are the pre-invasive forms of lung adenocarcinoma. The genomic and immune profiles of these lesions are poorly understood. Here we report exome and transcriptome sequencing of 98 lung adenocarcinoma precursor lesions and 99 invasive adenocarcinomas. We have identified EGFR, RBM10, BRAF, ERBB2, TP53, KRAS, MAP2K1 and MET as significantly mutated genes in the pre/minimally invasive group. Classes of genome alterations that increase in frequency during the progression to malignancy are revealed. These include mutations in TP53, arm-level copy number alterations, and HLA loss of heterozygosity. Immune infiltration is correlated with copy number alterations of chromosome arm 6p, suggesting a link between arm-level events and the tumor immune environment.

• Cell motility and migration as determinants of stem cell efficacy

  Limited stem cell migration capacities and undirected homing hamper their therapeutic efficacy. We report here the novel technology to isolate stem cell subpopulations with high migration potential. Hereby, we identified podoplanin-dependent stem cell mobility as important mechanism for their in vivo homing capacities and therapeutic efficacy as validated in preclinical models of Alzheimer´s disease and mouse glioma. In vivo applications of highly migrating stem cells resulted in remarkable improvement of targeted homing and engraftment rates. Moreover, animals receiving highly migrating stem cells showed higher recovery rates compared to unselected stem cells. This novel technology provides useful tool to improve therapeutic efficacy of stem cells and give insights into stem cell subpopulations heterogeneity with the potential of general applicability for cellular therapies.

• Targeting PTPRK-RSPO3 colon tumours promotesdifferentiation and loss of stem-cell function

  Colorectal cancer remains a major unmet medical need, promptinglarge-scale genomics efforts in the field to identify moleculardrivers for which targeted therapies might be developed. Wepreviously reported the identification of recurrent translocationsin R-spondin proteins present in a subset of colorectal tumours.Here we show that targeting RSPO3 in PTPRK-RSPO3-fusion positivehuman tumour xenografts inhibits tumour growth andpromotes differentiation. Notably, genes expressed in the stem-cellcompartment of the intestine were among those most sensitive toanti-RSPO3 treatment. This observation, combined with functionalassays, suggests that a stem-cell compartment drives PTPRK-RSPO3colorectal tumour growth and indicates that the therapeutictargeting of stem-cell properties within tumours may be a clinicallyrelevant approach for the treatment of colorectal tumors.

• Genome-wide DNA methylation profiles of NSCLC xenograft and primary lung tissues for the identification of epigenetic predictive biomarkers.

  Non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) are the most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide and primarily treated with platinum-based drugs like cisplatin and carboplatin, radiation and surgery. The major challenge in the management of NSCLC are intrinsic or acquired resistance mechanisms with only few published molecular markers which can predict the outcome of the patients. On the other side, changes in DNA methylation are observed in nearly all cancer types making them suitable as biomarker. Here genome-wide methylation profiles from MeDIP-Seq and gene expression profiling data of 22 primary NSCLC, adjacent normal tissue and PDX samples are provided. For each PDX tumor growth rates were measured in absence or presence of chemotherapy.

• Genomic characterization of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma reveals critical genes underlying tumorigenesis and poor prognosis

  The genetic mechanisms underlying the poor prognosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) are not well understood. In this study, we comprehensively characterized somatic mutations, copy number alterations (SCNAs)/structural variants (SVs) found in ESCC from sequencing 10 whole-genome and 57 whole-exome matched tumor-normal pairs. We identified multiple somatic mutations seen previously in known cancer pathways and identified candidate genes for ESCC including VANGL1 and MIR4707. A survival analysis based on the expression profiles of 321 ESCC individuals indicated that the somatically altered genes we found were significantly associated with ESCC poorer survival. Subsequently, we performed functional studies to validate the roles of the altered genes in tumor proliferation and metastasis.

• Mitochondrial DNA sequencing of iPSC, parental cells, and iPSC derived cardiomyocytes

  The aim of this work was to analyze to which extent mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variants in human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) originate from their parental cells or from de novo mutagenesis, and whether dynamics in variant heteroplasmy levels during prolonged expansion culture of iPSC are caused by inter- or intra-cellular selection or genetic drift. Hence, mtDNA of 26 early passage iPSC clones from, in total, 10 donors and the corresponding parental cell populations (here endothelial cells) were sequenced. Furthermore, 7 iPSC clones were expanded up to passage 50 and the change in variant heteroplasmy levels was monitored. Lastly, the effect of differentiation on the variant heteroplasmy levels was investigated during directed cardiomyocyte differentiation of 4 iPSC clones.

• Effect of 28-day administration of Urolithin A to sedentary elderly on muscle gene expression

  Urolithin A (UA) is a natural dietary, microflora derived, metabolite shown to stimulate mitophagy and improve muscle health in old animals and pre-clinical models of aging. UA was administered for 28-day in a first-in-human clinical trial to sedentary elderly subjects. Muscle biopsies were collected before the first dosing, and at the end of the 28-day period, under fasted conditions. Gene expression was measured by microarray. Gene-set enrichment analysis of the gene expression data showed that UA increased the transcription of mitochondrial related genesets. These observed effects on mitochondrial biomarkers show that UA induces a molecular signature of improved mitochondrial and cellular health following regular oral consumption in humans.

• Spatial heterogeneity of follicular lymphoma

  Follicular lymphoma (FL) is an incurable B cell malignancy characterized by advanced stage disease and a heterogeneous clinical course. Recent genomic studies have focused on profiling “single” FL biopsies over several time-points, however, multi-site sampling in solid cancers has demonstrated profound spatial intra-tumor heterogeneity (ITH) with implications for precision medicine based initiatives. This study examined the extent of spatial heterogeneity in FL by whole exome sequencing 22 synchronously removed spatially separated biopsies from 9 patients. We observed significant differences in the extent of ITH across cases, with two distinct patterns of high and low spatial heterogeneity emerging. Site-specific alterations in genes with biological, prognostic or therapeutic relevance included, TNFRSF14, PIK3CD, TNFAIP3, PTEN, EP300 and XBP1. In depth characterization of these variants using deep-sequencing techniques confirmed their discordant nature, suggesting on-going genetic diversification driving evolution after widespread tumor dissemination. There was evidence of tumors comprising multiple competing subclones, with distinct clusters of mutations demonstrating differential expansions within spatially-separated sites. For cases where spatial tumors were examined at two time-points (FL and transformation to diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL)), the degree of heterogeneity increased with transformation. Collectively, our results demonstrate that spatial ITH is prevalent in FL. The existence of site-specific aberrations suggests that a single biopsy may not be sufficient in all patients to capture the full genomic complexity present and these spatial variations need to be considered in biomarker-led clinical studies.
