• Genomic Analysis of Peripheral T-Cell Lymphomas

  Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are a heterogeneous and poorly understood group of non Hodgkin lymphomas. We aim to identify new genetic alterations in PTCL transformation by using a combination of whole exome sequencing of tumor-normal DNA pairs, RNAseq analysis and targeted deep sequencing of candidate genes. Our data identified highly recurrent mutations in epigenetic factors such as TET2, DNMT3A and IDH2 as well as a new highly prevalent mutation in RHOA, the G17V allele that is present in almost 70% of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphomas (AITL) and almost 20% of not otherwise specified PTCL (PTCL NOS) samples. In addition, we describe new and recurrent genetic defects including mutations in FYN, ATM, B2M and CD58 implicating SRC signaling, impaired DNA damage response and escape from immune surveillance processes as key players in the pathogenesis of PTCL.

• Genomic analysis of primary plasma cell leukemia reveals complex structural alterations and high risk mutational patterns

  Primary plasma cell leukemia (pPCL) is a rare and aggressive form of multiple myeloma (MM) that is characterized by poor overall survival despite advances in anti-MM therapy. The disease biology as well as molecular mechanisms that distinguish pPCL from non-pPCL MM remain poorly understood. In an attempt to identify key biological mechanisms that result in the aggressive pPCL phenotype we performed whole exome sequencing in 23 patients with newly diagnosed pPCL. The results reveal an enrichment of complex structural changes and high risk mutational patterns in pPCL that explain, at least in part, the aggressive nature of the disease. In particular pPCL patients with traditional low risk features such as translocation t(11;14) or hyperdiploidy accumulated adverse risk genetic events that could account for the poor outcome in this group.

• A Human Lymphoma Organoid Model for Evaluating and Targeting the Follicular Lymphoma Tumor Immune Microenvironment

  Heterogeneity in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of follicular lymphoma (FL) can affect clinical outcomes. We developed a new organoid culture method for cultivating patient-derived lymphoma organoids (PDLOs), which include cells from the native FL TME. We generated organoids from 12 FL patients at diagnosis, clinical progression, or relapse. These organoids were profiled with targeted DNA sequencing and mRNA sequencing. We evaluated the stability of organoids in culture at serial weekly timepoints (D0, D7, D14, D21). We treated organoids with CD19:CD3 or CD20:CD3 bispecific antibodies or unconjugated anti-CD20, anti-CD19, and anti-CD3 as a control, and profiled DNA/RNA at D11 to evaluate treatment response. This system is intended as a platform for advancing precision medicine efforts in FL through patient-specific modeling, high-throughput screening, TME signature identification, and treatment response evaluation.

• Childhood Cancer Data Initiative (CCDI): Identification and Targeting of Treatment Resistant Progenitor Populations in T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

  Our goal with this study was to identify the mechanisms of treatment resistance in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) using single-cell genomics. We profiled 40 T-ALL cases from the Children's Oncology Group AALL0434 clinical trial using CITE-seq/snATAC-seq, capturing a breadth of immunophenotypes, including early T-cell precursor (ETP) and near-ETP/non-ETP subtypes. By integrating analyses of T-ALL cells with the normal T-cell developmental trajectory, the study identified a specific subgroup of leukemia cells resembling bone marrow progenitors (BMP-like cells). These BMP-like cells were associated with treatment failure and poor overall survival in T-ALL patients. Overall, this study reveals comprehensive multiomic signatures for rapidly assessing risk and tailoring targeted treatment for high-risk T-ALL patients.

• NHLBI TOPMed: Stanford Cardiovascular Institute iPSC Biobank Study (SCVI)

  The proposed Stanford Cardiovascular Institute (SCVI) Biorepository will curate and manage an expanded collection of human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines and provide investigators with iPSC materials generated using standardized protocols, with the overall objective of promoting the continued adoption and development of iPSC technology in cardiovascular research. Human iPSCs have revolutionized disease modeling, drug screening, and therapeutic research. However, it is also recognized that the need for specialized technical expertise and the associated cost have largely prevented individual research laboratories from adopting iPSC models in their inquiries, particularly in studies requiring multiple cell lines. To address this bottleneck, the proposed Biorepository will maintain our existing collection of iPSC lines and further expand the collection of iPSCs by recruiting 1,000 healthy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) donors of both sexes and diverse racial/ethnic backgrounds (African Americans, Asians, Hispanics, and Whites).

• NHLBI TOPMed - NHGRI CCDG: Genes-Environments and Admixture in Latino Asthmatics (GALA II)

  This is a case-only pharmacogenetic study of bronchodilator drug response among racially admixed Latino children with asthma. Each participant had two spirometry measurements using the KoKo PFT System. With the first spirometry test, participant was administered with 4 puffs of HFA Albuterol. The second albuterol measurement was based on age, for participants under 16 years of age, additional 2 puffs were administered and for those over 16 years of age, additional 4 puffs were administered. The overall goal is to identify genetic factors which are predictive of drug response in children with asthma. The principal tools include a questionnaire and biological specimen collection. Participants are 8-21 years old at time of recruitment. Children with asthma have physician-diagnosed asthma, symptoms and medications. Comprehensive phenotypic data for GALAII study participants are available through dbGaP phs001180.

• The Genetic Evolution of Acral Melanoma

  Acral melanoma is a rare melanoma subtype arising on the sole, palm, or nail apparatus. We performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) for a cohort of 35 acral melanoma patients. For each patient, we sequenced multiple tumor areas representing different tumor stages, including the in situ and invasive portions of the primary tumor and available regional or distant metastases. Normal areas were included for all except one patient. We identified distinct evolutional trajectory compared to melanomas arising on the sun-exposed skin. Whole-genome sequencing and targeted sequencing were additionally performed for a subset of the samples. Particularly, in acral melanomas, complex genomic aberrations, characterized by clustered copy number transitions and focal amplifications, and telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) activating alterations occur very early during evolution, while MAP-kinase pathway mutations, such as BRAF V600E and NRAS hotspot mutations, can occur late and often result in striking intra-tumor heterogeneity.

• DAC of the STIC project

  Ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) originates in the fallopian tube, with secretory cells carrying a TP53 mutation, known as ‘p53 signatures’, identified as potential precursors. p53 signatures evolve into serous tubal intraepithelial carcinomas (STIC) lesions, which, in turn, progress into invasive HGSC that readily spread to the ovary and disseminate around the peritoneal cavity. We recently investigated the genomic landscape of early- and late-stage HGSC and found higher ploidy in late-stage (median 3.1) than early-stage (median 2.0) samples. Here, to explore whether the high ploidy and possible whole genome duplication observed in late-stage disease are determined early in the evolution of HGSC, we analysed archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples (FFPE) from five HGSC patients. p53 signatures and STIC lesions were laser-capture microdissected and sequenced using shallow whole genome sequencing (sWGS), while invasive ovarian/fallopian tube and metastatic carcinoma samples underwent macrodissection and were profiled using both sWGS and targeted next generation sequencing. Results showed highly similar patterns of global copy number change between STIC lesions and invasive carcinoma samples within each patient. Ploidy changes were evident in STIC lesions, but not p53 signatures, and there was strong correlation between ploidy in STIC lesions and invasive ovarian/fallopian tube and metastatic samples in each patient. The reconstruction of sample phylogeny for each patient from relative copy number indicated that high ploidy, when present, occurred early in the evolution of HGSC, which was further validated by copy number signatures in ovarian and metastatic tumours. These findings suggest that aberrant ploidy, suggestive of whole genome duplication, arises early in HGSC, and is detected in STIC lesions, implying that the trajectory of HGSC may be determined at the earliest stages of tumour development.

• Genomic Sequencing of Ewing Sarcoma

  Pediatric Ewing sarcoma is a pediatric cancer that primarily arises from the bone. It is characterized by chimeric fusions of the EWS gene and an ETS family transcription factor. In this study, we performed massively parallel sequencing of a larger collection of Ewing sarcoma tumors to define the genomic landscape of this disease. We found that these tumors are among of the most genetically normal cancers currently characterized. There was also a marked absence of recurrent mutations in immediately targetable signaling transduction pathway genes. In this study we answer outstanding questions about ETS transcription factor expression, effects of treatment on mutational burden in Ewing sarcoma tumors, and describe patterns of tumor evolution. We also found that loss-of-function mutations in STAG2 were present in approximately 15% of Ewing sarcoma tumors and loss of STAG2 expression was associated with disease metastasis in this patient cohort.

• Epigenomics of Neurocognitive Function in Breast Cancer

  This study harnessed the data and biospecimens from the Exercise Program in Cancer and Cognition (EPICC) study (parent study) that collected data on cognitive function, demographics, other symptoms and biospecimens at two time points (T1: enrollment, T2: six months later) within the context of a six-month randomized controlled trial of a moderate intensity aerobic exercise intervention. This study collected genome wide DNA methylation data from T1 and T2 and conducted epigenome-wide association-based analyses to find genes and biological pathways explaining variability in cognitive function and explaining how exercise mitigates cognitive decline. Our initial findings identified cg10331779 near CTNND2 (p-value=9.65×10-9) associated with processing speed and cg25906741 in MLIP (p-value=2.01×10-8) associated with subjectively measured cognitive function. Additionally, differentially methylated regions were identified near SLC6A11, PRKG1/CSTF2T, and FAM3B for processing speed and near PI4KB and SGCE/PEG10 for mental flexibility.

• Identification of a Type 1 Diabetes-Associated T Cell Receptor Repertoire Signature from the Human Peripheral Blood

  Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is a T-cell mediated disease with a strong immunogenetic HLA dependence. HLA allelic influence on the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire shapes thymic selection and controls activation of diabetogenic clones, yet remains largely unresolved in T1D. We sequenced the circulating TCRβ chain repertoire from 2250 HLA-typed participants across three cross-sectional cohorts, including T1D individuals, and healthy related and unrelated controls. We found that HLA risk alleles show higher restriction of TCR repertoires in T1D individuals. We leveraged deep learning to identify T1D-associated TCR subsequence motifs that were also observed in independent TCR cohorts residing in pancreas-draining lymph nodes of T1D individuals. Collectively, our data demonstrate T1D-related TCR motif enrichment based on genetic risk, offering a potential metric for autoreactivity and groundwork for TCR-based diagnostics and therapeutics.

• Highly prevalent NF-kappa B signaling pathway-activating somatic mutations in intracranial aneurysms

  Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are a high-risk factor for life-threatening subarachnoid hemorrhage. Their etiology, however, remains mostly unknown. We conducted screening for somatic mutations in 65 IA tissues and identified 16 genes that were mutated with a high prevalence (92%). In particular, six genes, including PDGFRB, were mutated commonly in fusiform and saccular IAs and are linked to the NF-kappa B signaling pathway. Mutant PDGFRBs constitutively activate NF-kappa B signaling and induce inflammation-related gene expression in vitro. Spatial transcriptomics also detected similar changes in IA tissues. Virus-mediated expression of a mutant PDGFRB induces a fusiform-like dilatation of the basilar artery in mice. This study reveals a high prevalence of somatic mutations in NF-kappa B signaling genes in IAs and opens a new avenue of research toward development of its pharmacological interventions.

• Controlling cell differentiation with precision through understanding the structure and dynamics of gene regulatory networks

  We established a set of transgenic human ES cell lines that carry inducible expression gene cassette for singe transcriptional factor induction with Tet-ON system. Transcriptome data was obtained 48h after transgene induction by Microarray. We established inducible human ES lines about more than 700 genes, and achieved microarray analysis on 115 genes. Our data set has multiple characteristic properties; 1) the same platform across data set, 2) analyzed with dynamic cell status, 3) pre-determined initiation point on gene perturbation, 4)inducible in different cell status. In parallele, we also performed RNA sequenncig analysis on 435 transgene induced ES lines as well. 32 transgene induced transcriptome data were obtained from both Microarray and RNA sequencing, normalizing technical gaps between them. We hope those systematic data set to reveal transcriptional network structure and molecular mechanisms of cell differentiation.

• Genetic and transcriptional landscape of plasma cells in POEMS syndrome

  POEMS syndrome is a rare paraneoplastic disease, associated with monoclonal plasma cells whose pathogenic importance remains unclear. We performed comprehensive genetic analyses of plasma cells in 20 patients with POEMS syndrome. Whole exome sequencing and targeted sequencing identified 7 recurrently mutated genes: KLHL6, LTB, EHD1, EML4, HEPHL1, HIPK1, and PCDH10. None of the driver gene mutations frequently found in multiple myeloma (MM) such as NRAS, KRAS, BRAF, and TP53 was detected. Copy number analysis showed chromosomal abnormalities shared with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). RNA sequencing revealed a transcription profile specific to POEMS syndrome, especially in terms of tumorigenesis. Unexpectedly, disease-specific VEGFA expression was not increased in POEMS syndrome. Our study illustrates that the genetic and transcriptional profiles of plasma cells in POEMS syndrome are distinct from MM and MGUS, indicating its unique pathogenesis.

• Single-cell bisulfite-seq analyses of 1-year-old prospermatogonia and adult spermatogonial stem cell

  To examine the timing of de novo methylation during human male germ cell development, single-cell bisulfite sequencing was carried out on human germ cells. FACS-purified Prospermatogonia from three teratoma patients (1-year-0-month, 1-year-5-months, and 1-year-8-months) and spermatogonial stem cells from a 29-year-old obstructive azoospermia patient with normal spermatogenesis were analyzed. The three 1-year-old prospermatogonia exhibited average methylation levels of 41.4% (23.1-54.4%, 1-year-0-month), 53.1% (32.0-62.4%, 1-year-5-months), and 32.6% (10.2-54.7%, 1-year-8-months). In contrast, adult spermatogonia showed an average level of 75.7% (73.3-76.8%). Although teratoma may have influenced the developmental timing of prospermatogonia within the same testes, prospermatogonia across all 1-year-old samples remained in an intermediate phase of DNA methylation establishment.

• Genome wide association study of Coeliac Disease

  We performed a second-generation genome-wide association study of 4,533 individuals with celiac disease (cases) and 10,750 control subjects. We genotyped 113 selected SNPs with P(GWAS) < 10(-4) and 18 SNPs from 14 known loci in a further 4,918 cases and 5,684 controls. Variants from 13 new regions reached genome-wide significance (P(combined) < 5 x 10(-8)); most contain genes with immune functions (BACH2, CCR4, CD80, CIITA-SOCS1-CLEC16A, ICOSLG and ZMIZ1), with ETS1, RUNX3, THEMIS and TNFRSF14 having key roles in thymic T-cell selection. There was evidence to suggest associations for a further 13 regions. In an expression quantitative trait meta-analysis of 1,469 whole blood samples, 20 of 38 (52.6%) tested loci had celiac risk variants correlated (P < 0.0028, FDR 5%) with cis gene expression

• The Multiomics Blueprint of the Individual with the Most Extreme Lifespan

  Although centenarians are becoming more common in the demography of human populations, the so-called supercentenarians (over 110 years old) are still a rarity. In Catalonia, the historic nation where the subject lived, the life-expectancy for women is 86 years old, so she exceeded more than 30 years the mean statistical value. In a similar manner that premature aging syndromes, such as Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria and Werner syndrome, can provide relevant clues about the mechanisms of aging; the study of supercentenarians might also shed light in the pathways involved in lifespan. To unfold the biological properties that exhibited such a remarkable human being, we developed a comprehensive multiomics analysis in different tissues of her genomic, transcriptomic, metabolomic, epigenomic and microbiomic landscapes , comparing the results with those observed in non-supercentenarian populations.

• BLUEPRINT Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cell Methylomes

  An optimized whole genome bisulfite sequencing protocol (µWGBS, Farlik et al. 2015 Cell Reports) was used to establish DNA methylation profiles of FACS-purified stem and progenitor cells types of the human blood lineage. Most cell types were sorted from the peripheral blood of three donors with eight pools of ten cells, two pools of 50 cells, and one pool of 1000 cells. HSCs and MPPs were also sorted from fetal liver (HSCs only), cord blood, and bone marrow. Single-cell methylomes using the scWGBS protocol (Farlik et al. 2015 Cell Reports) were established for six cell types (HSC, MPP, CMP, GMP, CLP, MLP0). Gene expression profiling using the Smart-seq2 protocol (Picelli et al. 2013 Nature Methods) was done for nine stem/progenitor cell types (HSC, MPP, CMP, GMP, CLP, MLP0, MLP1, MLP2, MLP3).

• Anaplastic oligodendroglioma exome and RNA sequencing data

  Anaplastic oligodendrogliomas (AOs) are rare primary brain tumors which are generally incurable, with heterogeneous prognosis and few treatment targets identified. Most oligodendrogliomas have chromosome 1p/19q co-deletion and IDH mutation. We analyzed 51 AOs by whole-exome sequencing, identifying previously reported frequent somatic mutations in CIC and FUBP1. We also identified recurrent mutations in TCF12 and in an additional series of 83 AO. Overall 7.5% of AO are mutated for TCF12, which encodes an oligodendrocyte-related transcription factor. 80% of TCF12 mutations identified were in either the bHLH domain, which is important for TCF12 function as a transcription factor, or were frame shift mutations leading to TCF12 truncated for this domain. We show that these mutations compromise TCF12 transcriptional activity and are associated with a more aggressive tumor type. Our analysis provides further insights into the unique and shared pathways driving AO.

• Single cell multi-omic study of H3-K27M mutant diffuse midline glioma across age and location

  Histone 3 lysine27-to-methionine (H3-K27M) mutations most frequently occur in childhood diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs) of the pons, but are also increasingly recognized in adult DMGs. Their potential heterogeneity at different ages and midline locations are vastly understudied. Here, through dissecting the single-cell transcriptomic, epigenomic and spatial architectures of a comprehensive cohort of patient H3-K27M DMGs, we delineate how age and anatomical location shape glioma cell-intrinsic and -extrinsic features in light of the shared driver mutation. We conducted multi-omic profiling of 50 H3-K27M mutant patient tumors. We performed deep full-length Smart-seq2 fresh single-cell (n=18) or frozen single-nucleus (n=25) RNA-sequencing (sc/snRNA-seq) of 43 tumors). We additionally analyzed the open chromatin profiles of 8 tumors utilizing the single-cell/nucleus assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (snATAC-seq)

• Translational analyses from a phase II study of pembrolizumab and epigenetic modification with azacitidine in platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian cancer

  Epigenetic modulators may sensitize platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC) to immune checkpoint inhibition by reprogramming the tumor microenvironment. We report clinical and translational findings from a phase II non-randomized study of pembrolizumab and oral azacytidine in 34 women with PROC (NCT02900560). The effect of combined epigenetic and immunotherapy was evaluated by transcriptomic analyses of serially biopsied tumors. Differential gene expression analyses revealed an upregulation of inflammatory and cytolytic genes and co-inhibitory checkpoints 6 weeks on-therapy. Upregulation of interferon signaling, antigen presentation and immune cell adhesion and migration gene sets was prominent on-therapy, together with an increased density of CD8+ T -cells. Patients with a CA-125 and/or clinical response showed an enrichment of adaptive and conserved immune response gene sets on-therapy.

• The function of circular RMST in neuroendocrine tumours

  Circular RNA (circRNA) is a class of noncoding RNA with regulatory potentials. Its role in the transdifferentiation of prostate and lung adenocarcinoma into neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) remains unexplored. Here we identified circRMST as an exceptionally abundant circRNA predominantly expressed in NEPC using total RNA-seq profiling of patient samples. In addition, circRMST is also abundantly expressed in SCLC. Functional studies using shRNA, siRNA, CRISPR-Cas13 and Cas9 consistently demonstrate that circRMST is essential for tumour growth and the expression of ASCL1, a master regulator of neuroendocrine fate. Mechanistically, circRMST physically interacts with lineage transcription factors NKX2-1 and SOX2. Loss of circRMST induces NKX2-1 protein degradation through autophagy-lysosomal pathway and alters the genomic binding of SOX2, collectively leading to the loss of ASCL1 transcription.

• A benchmark of DNA methylation deconvolution methods for tumoral fraction estimation using DecoNFlow

  In cancer patients, circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) originates from both healthy and cancer cells, and the proportion of tumor-derived cfDNA serves as a surrogate marker of tumor burden. Tumoral cfDNA can be identified using patient-specific mutations or more general tumor-specific DNA methylation patterns that are preserved in cfDNA, enabling non-invasive cancer detection and monitoring. Accurately estimating tumor fractions remains challenging due to the heterogeneous mixture of cfDNA sources in body fluids. Computational DNA methylation deconvolution methods can address this by estimating tumoral fraction with or without reference methylomes. Here, we benchmarked 10 reference-based and 2 reference-free DNAm deconvolution tools and provide the data generated for this benchmarking, consisting of 10 neuroblastoma cell lines and one healthy cfDNA sample (pooled from 15 healthy cfDNA samples), profiled using cfRRBS.
