• ChIP-seq data in MSC_Pat and EWIma1 (FLI1 & H3K27ac)

  Ewing sarcoma is characterized by pathognomonic translocations fusing most frequently EWSR1 with FLI1 (EF1). In addition, Ewing sarcoma can also display alterations in STAG2, TP53 and CDKN2A (SPC). Starting from Ewing sarcoma derived human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCpat), we recapitulated this translocation and SPC alterations using a CRISPR/cas9 approach and generated a bona fide Ewing sarcoma model (EWIma1) displaying transcriptomic and epigenetic hallmarks of EwS.

• SCANDARE TNBC transcriptomics data

  SCANDARE (NCT03017573) is a multicentric biobanking study, enrolling adult patients with newly diagnosed head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), ovarian and cervical cancer. Tumor tissue and blood samples are collected at several time points during patient's journey, including at diagnosis, post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy in case of neoadjuvant treatment, at surgery, at recurrence and at disease progression following treatment initiated at recurrence. Since its launch in 2017 at Institut Curie, SCANDARE has enabled the longitudinal collection and preservation of samples for in-depth analyses. Here, we describe molecular alterations in 124 frozen samples (n=84 at baseline and n=40 paired at post-NAC surgery) from 91 TNBC patients using total RNAseq technology, with FASTQ files deposited in the dataset.

• Study of the role of aneuploidy in cB-ALL

  We modeled two proposed routes to hyperdiploidy, chromosome missegregation and cytokinesis failure, by transiently exposing human fetal liver–derived HSPCs to reversine or cytochalasin-D. Induced hyperdiploidy impaired fitness and delayed differentiation in vitro, causing hyperdiploid cells to be rapidly outcompeted by euploid counterparts. Nonetheless, hyperdiploid cells engrafted immunodeficient mice, where rare clones persisted long-term and acquired non-random chromosomal gains frequently observed in cB-ALL.

• Genomic characterization of germ-cell tumors in childhood

  Germ cell tumors (GCTs) are rare neoplasms affecting approximately 3.5% of pediatric patients, with diverse histological subtypes. Despite their low mutational burden, prevalent alterations in KIT, KRAS, and NRAS genes are observed, but molecular understanding of pediatric GCTs lags behind adult counterparts. We aimed to elucidate the genomic landscape of 16 pediatric GCT patients via whole exome sequencing (WES), which revealed somatic alterations resembling those in adult GCTs.

• Analysis of tumor periphery and center-specific mutations in renal cell carcinoma

  Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a genomically heterogeneous tumor. In the present project, the question whether intratumoral heterogeneity follows a zonal pattern indicating spatial niches was addressed. Whole exome sequencing of 16 paired samples from tumor periphery and center revealed a number of region-specific functional SNVs and Indels. Therefore, RCCs are not composed of evenly admixed tumor cells but show topological differences in their clonal composition.

• Mayo-Perlegen LEAPS (Linked Efforts to Accelerate Parkinson's Solutions) Collaboration

  We performed a two-tiered, whole-genome association study of Parkinson disease (PD). For tier 1, we individually genotyped 198,345 uniformly spaced and informative single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 443 sibling pairs discordant for PD. For tier 2a, we individually genotyped 1,793 PD-associated SNPs (P<.01 in tier 1) and 300 genomic control SNPs in 332 matched case-unrelated control pairs. We identified 11 SNPs that were associated with PD (P<.01) in both tier 1 and tier 2 samples and had the same direction of effect. For these SNPs, we combined data from the case-unaffected sibling pair (tier 1) and case-unrelated control pair (tier 2) samples and employed a liberalization of the sibling transmission/disequilibrium test to calculate odds ratios, 95% confidence intervals, and P values. A SNP within the semaphorin 5A gene (SEMA5A) had the lowest combined P value (P=7.62E-6). The protein encoded by this gene plays an important role in neurogenesis and in neuronal apoptosis, which is consistent with existing hypotheses regarding PD pathogenesis. A second SNP tagged the PARK11 late-onset PD susceptibility locus (P=1.70E-5). In tier 2b, we also selected for genotyping additional SNPs that were borderline significant (P<.05) in tier 1 but that tested a priori biological and genetic hypotheses regarding susceptibility to PD (n=941 SNPs). In analysis of the combined tier 1 and tier 2b data, the two SNPs with the lowest P values (P=9.07E-6; P=2.96E-5) tagged the PARK10 late-onset PD susceptibility locus. Independent replication across populations will clarify the role of the genomic loci tagged by these SNPs in conferring PD susceptibility. Note: The following instruments were used: 1)clinical assessments form and manual; 2) sibling screening form and manual; 3) unrelated control screening and manual; and 4) risk factors questionnaire and manual. All cases underwent #1, as did sibling controls screening positive (see below). Unrelated controls were not examined. All siblings underwent #2. All unrelated controls underwent #3. All subjects (cases, sibling controls, and unrelated controls) underwent #4.

• (Epi)genetic Risk Architectures of Opioid-Dependent Brain

  With nearly 20,000 overdose deaths in 2014 alone, opioid addiction (OA) has emerged as one of the most pressing public health crises in recent US history. One-fifth of individuals who try heroin develop an addiction to opioids. Genetics is a major contributor to OA with an estimated 60% heritability, only somewhat less than schizophrenia (80%) which has recently seen substantial gains in identified underlying genetics. Yet, studies to date have failed to uncover most of the genes that predispose individuals to OA, leaving the overwhelming fraction of OA heritability unexplained. The proposed study takes a novel, integrated "omics-based" strategy to investigate the molecular basis of OA and uncover both genetic and epigenetic factors associated with opioid addiction. The premise for our approach is founded on studies from our labs, and others, implicating regulatory variation in common traits and diseases, including those associated with complex brain phenotypes like addiction. We have collected the largest known cohort of postmortem brains from addicts who overdosed on opioids, along with matched control brains from non-users. From both cases and control specimens, we will isolate cells from 2 regions of the brain closely implicated in the addiction phenotype: the Prefrontal Cortex (PFC) and the Nucleus Accumbens (NAc). In Aim 1, we propose ChIP-seq studies to identify regulatory elements that distinguish cases from controls and define the opioid addiction phenotype. The regulatory differences will be connected to their gene targets through high resolution in situ Hi-C. In Aim 2, we propose QTL-based approaches to identify genetic variants that underlie the regulatory differences (hmQTLs). We also propose eQTL analyses to identify genetic variants that underlie differences in transcript levels between cases and controls. Aim 3 leverages the largest heroin addiction GWAS meta-analysis to date to test the hypothesis that SNPs in regions associated with chromatin and expression differences between cases and controls define novel loci for predisposition to OA. Each Aim has the potential for discovery independent of the others (differential HM, RNAexp, QTLs, and variant-phenotype associations) but their synergy is the most powerful component of the proposed study: identifying regulatory pathways that generate, not only phenotype associations, but hypothesized mechanisms for those associations which can be the focus of new opioid addiction prevention and treatment development.

• Region-specific Transcriptome Analysis of the Human Retina and Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE)/Choroid

  Proper spatial differentiation of retinal cell types is necessary for normal human vision. Many retinal diseases, such as Best disease and male germ cell associated kinase (MAK)-associated retinitis pigmentosa, preferentially affect distinct topographic regions of the retina. While much is known about the distribution of cell types in the retina, the distribution of molecular components across the posterior pole of the eye has not been well-studied. To investigate regional difference in molecular composition of ocular tissues, we assessed differential gene expression across the temporal, macular, and nasal retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)/choroid of human eyes using RNA-Seq. RNA from temporal, macular, and nasal retina and RPE/choroid from four human donor eyes was extracted, poly-A selected, fragmented, and sequenced as 100 bp read pairs. Digital read files were mapped to the human genome and analyzed for differential expression using the Tuxedo software suite. Retina and RPE/choroid samples were clearly distinguishable at the transcriptome level. Numerous transcription factors were differentially expressed between regions of the retina and RPE/choroid. Photoreceptor-specific genes were enriched in the peripheral samples, while ganglion cell and amacrine cell genes were enriched in the macula. Within the RPE/choroid, RPE-specific genes were upregulated at the periphery while endothelium associated genes were upregulated in the macula. Consistent with previous studies, BEST1 expression was lower in macular than extramacular regions. The MAK gene was expressed at lower levels in macula than in extramacular regions, but did not exhibit a significant difference between nasal and temporal retina. The regional molecular distinction is greatest between macula and periphery and decreases between different peripheral regions within a tissue. Datasets such as these can be used to prioritize candidate genes for possible involvement in retinal diseases with regional phenotypes.

• CSER: Clinical Implementation of Carrier Testing Using Next Generation Sequencing (NextGen)

  We will investigate the clinical implementation of genome sequencing (GS) for carrier screening to aid reproductive decision-making in adults. The study is organized into three inter-related Projects. The study population will include women and their partners who receive pre-conception testing. In Project 1, we will conduct a Randomized Clinical Trial to test clinical implementation of WGS compared with usual care. We will integrate WGS results with the electronic medical record (EMR), and measure outcomes from patient and physician perspectives. In Project 2, we will perform whole genome sequencing, including validation and interpretation of the identified variants to identify "actionable variants", meaning variants deemed worthy of reporting. This will include a robust approach using a Return of Results Committee (RORC) for determination of reportable results. In Project 3, we will evaluate the ethical and psychosocial implications of expanded carrier screening using WGS for the return of carrier status and secondary findings, and measure the impact on downstream healthcare utilization and cost. Two groups of women are identified through the electronic medical record. The first group has a clinical carrier screening test, usually Cystic Fibrosis (CF), ordered and completed as part of a preconception planning visit. The second group has a carrier screening test, usually CF, performed during pregnancy, they have delivered their baby and are planning a future pregnancy. Eligible women are randomized to either usual care or genome sequencing (GS). Women randomized into the usual care arm have already received their clinical genetic test. These women will not receive genome sequencing. Women in the GS arm will receive their carrier status results for about 700 gene/condition pairs approximately three months after randomization. If there are results to return, women come in for a genetic counseling session. If there are no results, a letter is sent in the mail. Incidental findings (IF) are returned about one month later. As with the carrier status results, all IF are returned in person, and if there are no results a letter is sent in the mail. If a participant is found to be a carrier of an autosomal recessive condition, her male partner is then eligible and invited to participate in the study and receive GS.

• Single Cell RNA Sequencing of Tendon Scar Tissue (Tenolysis)

  This human tenolysis sample was collected as a control (non-diabetic sample) as part of larger study described below.The purpose of the larger study is to define the cellular and molecular environment in tendons, pulleys, synovial sheath, tendon scar tissue, and palmar fascia samples. The samples are isolated from discarded tissues from patients who undergo lower limb amputation surgery, dupuytren's disease, trigger finger release, tenolysis surgery, tenosynovitis surgery, distal biceps tendon repair, common extensor debridement and repair, common flexor debridement and repair, or proximal long head of the biceps tenodesis.The dramatic increase in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) as part of the obesity epidemic is one of the most pressing health challenges facing the U.S. Type II diabetes results in systemic inflammation and is characterized by metabolic dysfunction including elevated plasma glucose levels (hyperglycemia). There is a clear link between T2DM and musculoskeletal pathologies; T2DM accelerates the progression of osteoarthritis, and increases fracture risk. Moreover, T2DM impairs tendon homeostasis and repair, and increases the risk and severity of tenosynovitis (infection of the tendon and sheath), however there remains a paucity of information regarding the molecular mechanisms of diabetes-induced changes in tendon function. Flexor and extensor tendons facilitate digit range of motion (ROM) and movement of the hand. Tendon gliding can be impaired by tendon fibrosis and an inability to fit within the surrounding synovial sheath, or due to the formation of fibrous adhesions between the tendon and synovial sheath during healing. Fibrosis and increased disorganization of the extracellular matrix are hallmarks of the diabetic hand phenotype observed in T2DM patients. T2DM dramatically affects the baseline function of tendons; up to 50% of diabetic patients experience impaired hand function, including increased rates of tenosynovitis, and carpal tunnel syndrome. In addition to decrements in tendon gliding function, deficits in mechanical properties are also observed, rendering diabetic tendons more susceptible to rupture. Considering that the complication rate of primary flexor tendon repairs is as high as 40% in non-diabetic patients, and that T2DM further impairs tendon healing, it is imperative to understand the cellular and molecular components of diabetic tendinopathy. The study will define the overall cellular and molecular environment in tendon pulleys, palmar fascia, synovial sheath tissue, and scar tissue (tenolysis and tenosynovitis samples) as a function of type II diabetes.

• Clinical and Molecular Investigation of Familial CEBPA-mutated Acute Myeloid Leukaemia

  Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) are clonal diseases arising from the sequential acquisition of genetic aberrations in haematopoietic stem cells. Whilst the aetiology is predominantly sporadic, rare reports describe the autosomal dominant inheritance of MDS and AML (familial MDS/AML), often presenting in younger patients (<40 years of age) with a germline mutation in one of three haematopoietic transcription factors: RUNX1, CEBPA and GATA2. The clinical recognition of familial disease can be challenging due to wide variations in phenotype, latency and transmission, complicated further by the patients’ awareness and reporting of affected relatives. Distinct clinical manifestations have however been reported for each genetic subtype and whilst RUNX1 and GATA2 mutations can harbour prolonged dysplastic or cytopenic phases, germline CEBPA mutations universally present with AML de novo. Our group were the first to describe germline CEBPA mutations in 3 related individuals, all of whom developed AML between 10-30 years of age. The initial pedigree together with those described in the intervening period, were predominantly isolated case reports with limited follow up, hence long term outcomes for this group of patients remain poorly defined. This contrasts with CEBPA mutations occurring in 10-15% of sporadic AML with normal karytoype (NK-AML), where double mutations (CEBPAdm, found in approximately 50% of all CEBPA-AML) are considered a unique molecular entity, associated with favourable clinical outcomes. In sporadic and familial CEBPAdm AML, N’ terminal mutations enforce translation of the shorter P30-kDa isoform and are typically accompanied by C’ terminal insertions or deletions (disrupting the DNA-binding and/or Leucine zipper domains). Definition of the full molecular landscape awaits extensive whole exome sequencing, although GATA2 mutations (targeting the Zinc Finger 1, ZF1, domain) have been reported in 20-40% of sporadic CEBPAdm AML and recent targeted resequencing analysis revealed a further association with WT1 mutations. With minimal clinical and molecular information available for familial CEBPA-AML, we are often consulted regarding the management of this unique patient population. To address this need, we have investigated a multi-centre cohort of families with germline CEBPA mutations, providing extended clinical follow up, whole exome profiling of secondary mutations and molecular analysis of relapsed disease.

• Genome_Diversity_in_Africa_Project__Benin

  Globally, human populations show structured genetic diversity as a result of geographical dispersion, selection and drift. Understanding this genetic variation can provide insights into the evolutionary processes that shape both human adaptation and variation in disease. Populations from SSA have the highest levels of genetic diversity. This characteristic, in addition to historical genetic admixture, can lead to complexities in the design of studies assessing the genetic determinants of disease and human variation. However, such studies of African populations are also likely to provide new opportunities to discover novel disease susceptibility loci and variants and refine gene–disease association signals. A systematic assessment of genetic diversity within SSA would facilitate genomic epidemiological studies in the region.The Genome Diversity in Africa Project (GDAP) aims to produce a comprehensive catalogue of human genetic variation in SSA, including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), structural variants, and haplotypes. This resource will make a substantial contribution to understanding patterns of genetic diversity within and among populations in SSA, as well as providing a global resource to help design, implement and interpret genomic studies in SSA populations and studies comprising globally diverse populations, complementing existing genomic resources. Specifically, we plan to carry out high depth whole genome sequencing of up to 2000 individuals across Africa (25 individuals from each ethnolinguistic group).Our scientific objectives are to: 1) develop a resource that provides a comprehensive catalogue of genetic variation in populations from SSA accessible to the global scientific community; 2) characterise population genetic diversity, structure, gene flow and admixture across SSA; 3) develop a cost-efficient, next-generation genotype array for diverse populations across SSA; and 4) facilitate whole genome-sequencing association studies of complex traits and diseases by developing a reference panel for imputation and resource for enhancing fine-mapping disease susceptibility loci. These scientific objectives will be supported by cross-cutting operational activities, including network and management of the consortium, research ethics, and research capacity building in statistical genetics and bioinformaticsThis data is part of a pre-publication release.

• UK10K RARE COLOBOMA

  In the UK10K project we propose a series of complementary genetic approaches to find new low frequency/rare variants contributing to disease phenotypes. These will be based on obtaining the genome wide sequence of 4000 samples from the TwinsUK and ALSPAC cohorts (at 6x sequence coverage), and the exome sequence (protein coding regions and related conserved sequence) of 6000 samples selected for extreme phenotypes. Our studies will focus primarily on cardiovascular-related quantitative traits, obesity and related metabolic traits, neurodevelopmental disorders and a limited number of extreme clinical phenotypes that will provide proof-of-concept for future familial trait sequencing. We will analyse directly quantitative traits in the cohorts and the selected traits in the extreme samples, and also use imputation down to 0.1% allele frequency to extend the analyses to further sample sets with genome wide genotype data. In each case we will investigate indels and larger structural variants as well as SNPs, and use statistical methods that combine rare variants in a locus or pathway as well as single-variant approaches. Ocular coloboma is the most common significant developmental eye defect with an incidence of ~1 in 5,000 live births. It results from failure of optic fissure closure during embryogenesis. The position and extent of the fusion failure dictates the clinical appearance and functional effect. ~30% of coloboma cases are associated with other systemic malformations. These UK10K samples will mostly comprise isolated coloboma cases without systemic involvement (aka non-syndromal coloboma). There is strong evidence from family studies that coloboma has a major genetic component with autosomal dominance being the most common pattern of inheritance. However, many cases are isolated or show complex patterns of familial clustering. The genes responsible for isolated coloboma are largely unknown, but in a small number of families mutations in SHH, CHX10, and PAX6 have been identified indicating marked genetic heterogeneity. Thus in addition to the clinical benefits of achieving a molecular diagnosis there are also major scientific advantages to identifying coloboma genes, as these are likely to provide insights into the complex process of optic fissure closure, that is critical to normal eye development. In the longer term, understanding the molecular basis of the disease may provide clues to therapeutic strategies.For further information with regard to this cohort please contact David Fitzpatrick (david.fitzpatrick@ed.ac.uk).

• Characterization of CNS Metastases

  Metastatic disease to the central nervous system (CNS) is devastating, with a poor prognosis. There are limited treatment options for patients with CNS metastases, and in particular with leptomeningeal carcinomatosis (LMD). In this study, we evaluated the molecular and cellular features of parenchymal brain metastases and LMD. We used single-cell RNA and cell-free DNA profiling of CSF from patients with LMD receiving immunotherapy to demonstrate shifts in the liquid LMD tumor microenvironment. We also characterize the tumor microenvironment of parenchymal brain metastases using single cell sequencing, before and after treatment with immunotherapy.

The baseline examination of the cohort included the euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp test from which the two key phenotypes were obtained: insulin sensitivity (M) and metabolic clearance rate of insulin (MCRI). Genome-wide genotyping was obtained under separate funding by NIDDK as a part of the GUARDIAN (Genetics Underlying Diabetes in Hispanics) Consortium.

• NHLBI TOPMed: Genetic Epidemiology Network of Salt Sensitivity (GenSalt)

  The GenSalt study aims to identify genes which interact with dietary sodium and potassium intake to influence blood pressure in Han Chinese participants from rural north China. Whole genome sequencing will be conducted among 1,860 participants of the Genetic Epidemiology Network of Salt Sensitivity (GenSalt) Study. We will work in collaboration with participating TOPMed studies to identify novel common, low-frequency and rare variants associated with an array of cardiometabolic phenotypes. In addition, we will explore the relation of low-frequency and rare variants with salt-sensitivity among GenSalt study participants.

• Cellular and Molecular Investigations of Human Hearts

  We aim to discover gene regulatory networks that govern heart morphogenesis in the early fetal heart. To this end, we have performed single-nucleus ATAC-seq on cells derived from 2 human hearts at 15 weeks post conception to define the chromatin profiles and genomic regulatory networks for these in vivo specific cardiomyocyte lineages during development, from which the FASTQ files are available through dbGAP. This information will help us understand the process of heart morphogenesis early in development and may further our understanding of how congenital heart disease impacts development.

• Single-Cell Analysis of the Multiple Myeloma Microenvironment after Gamma-Secretase Inhibition and CAR T-Cell Therapy

  We examined the effects of gamma-secretase inhibition (GSI) on the bone marrow microenvironment in multiple myeloma patients before anti-B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) CAR T-cell therapy. Single-nuclei RNA and ATAC sequencing revealed significant changes in gene expression and chromatin accessibility, especially in monocytes and tumor cells, following exposure to GSI. The findings suggest that GSI influences not only BCMA signaling but also broader cellular interactions within the tumor microenvironment. De-identified sequencing data from the study is available through dbGaP.

• Single-Cell RNA-Sequencing of Tumor and Immune Cells from Patients with Asymptomatic Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia

  We performed single-cell RNA-seq on tumor and immune cells from 30 patients with IgM Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance (IgM MGUS), Smoldering Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (SWM), and overt Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (WM) to identify tumor-intrinsic and immune biomarkers of disease progression in patients with asymptomatic WM. We identified subtypes within MYD88-mutant WM that are associated with clinical presentation and/or patient outcomes. We also characterized immune dysregulation in patients with asymptomatic WM, and demonstrated disordered interferon stimulation in T and NK cells of patients.

• Deciphering the complex clonal heterogeneity of polycythemia vera and the response to interferon alpha

  We integrated colony formation and differentiation assays with single-cell RNA sequencing and single-cell genotyping in PV patient-derived cells vs. healthy controls to dissect how IFNa targets diseased clones during erythroid differentiation. Our findings indicate that PV-derived clones either undergo apoptosis or pass through their typical differentiation cycle, contributing to the long-term exhaustion of mutant cells in the bone marrow. The pivotal roles of ribosomal genes and clonal prerequisites in the therapeutic mechanism of IFNa are underscored by our study.

• An investigation into the effects of progestin on follicular development and oocyte maturation during controlled ovarian stimulation using the Progestin-Primed Ovarian Stimulation (PPOS).

  In recent years, the Progestin-Primed Ovarian Stimulation (PPOS) method, utilizing progestin as ovulation suppressants, has gained traction as a controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) strategy in assisted reproductive technology (ART). However, the impact of progestin agents on follicular fluid, granulosa cells, and cumulus cells at the levels of gene and protein expression has not been fully assessed. This study aims to evaluate the effects of progestin agents, used in the PPOS method, on follicular development and oocyte maturation.

• Bone morphogenetic protein-9 controls pulmonary vascular growth and remodeling

  Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) are two distinct vascular diseases linked to impaired signaling through bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) receptor complexes in endothelial cells. Although BMP-9 plays a central role in activating this pathway by binding to ALK1 and BMPR-­II, its precise function in the pulmonary microvasculature has remained unclear. In this study, we uncover a previously unrecognized role for BMP-9 in regulating pulmonary vascular architecture and homeostasis. Our findings demonstrate that BMP-9 signaling intersects with VEGF pathways and contributes to the delicate balance between vascular growth and remodeling in the lungs. We also show that disruption of this pathway can shift vascular responses toward an HHT-­like state, potentially altering disease susceptibility. These insights offer a unique perspective on how BMP-9 and ALK1 shape pulmonary vascular biology and suggest that targeting this axis could inform future strategies for treating complex vascular diseases such as PAH.
