• RNA Splicing Dysregulation in the Pathogenesis of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

  RNA splicing dysregulation is a hallmark of cancers, promoting the onset and progression of disease. In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), spliceosome mutations leading to aberrant splicing occurs in approximately 20% of patients. However, the underlying mechanism for splicing defects in spliceosome unmutated CLL cases remains elusive. To discover posttranscriptional regulation of RNA splicing, we performed RNA sequencing using RNA derived from B cells from 6 healthy donors and 36 CLL patients, along with MAZTER sequencing from 9 CLL patients (8 matched with RNA sequencing cohort) and B cells from 5 healthy donors. We found that CLL cells have dysregulated m6A modification sites on transcripts from splicing factors, suggesting a critical role of m6A modification in RNA splicing dysregulation.

• The Intestinal Bacterial Metagenome in Pediatric Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)

  Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease in children in the United States. NAFLD is associated with obesity and metabolic syndrome; however, there is limited understanding of the development and progression of NAFLD. There is evidence of abnormalities of bacterial colonization, and intestinal bacterial product-induced inflammation associated with NAFLD and disease progression. The goal of this study was to characterize the intestinal microbiome in pediatric participants with NAFLD and in both obese and normal weight controls to determine the relationship between alterations in the intestinal microbiome, inflammation, and the development of NAFLD. We hypothesized that alterations in the intestinal microbiome are associated with increased systemic inflammation and the development and severity of NAFLD.

• Inhibition of CDK4/6 Promotes CD8 T Cell Memory

  Inhibitors of Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) have been recently deployed for the treatment of advanced breast cancer. Despite their success, the mechanism of action of these drugs is unclear. In mice, treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor improve T cell memory responses and protect mice against tumor rechallenge. We aimed to identify the correlates of this finding in human subjects. In this study, blood was collected from 5 breast cancer patients before and during treatment with the CDK4/6 inhibitors abemaciclib or palbociclib. Blood was also collected from 2 breast cancer patients who did not receive a CDK4/6 inhibitor. Recently activated CD8 T cells (CD45RO+ CD45RA+) were sorted and subjected to single-cell RNA sequencing.

• Transcriptome and Epigenome of TIL Infusion for Cancer Immunotherapy

  Adoptive T cell therapy (ACT) using ex vivo–expanded autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) can mediate complete regression of certain human cancers. The impact of TIL phenotypes on clinical success of TIL-ACT is currently unclear. Samples were analyzed from TIL infusion products from metastatic melanoma human patients who responded to TIL-ACT (responders) and patients who did not (non-responders). Single cell transcriptome of TIL infusion products were analyzed for CD8 TIL phenotype and function. In patients with available neoantigen reactive TIL, single cell TCR clonotyping was performed to study anti-tumor TIL states between responders and non-responders. Epigenetic studies on TIL infusion products were performed using ATAC sequencing between paired CD39- C69- and CD39+ CD69+ CD8+ TILs.

• De Novo Characterization of Cell-Free DNA Fragmentation Hotspots in Plasma Whole-Genome Sequencing

  The raw sequencing data deposited here are low-coverage (~1X) whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA). The purpose is to validate the performance of early-stage cancer diagnosis in the Zhou et al. 2020 BioRxiv paper, mainly for two types of cancer: early-stage liver cancer and breast cancer. The cases and controls are matched with age, gender, smoking history, and alcohol usage. We developed a computational method to identify the cfDNA fragmentation hotspots from pooled low-coverage cfDNA WGS data. We found the cfDNA fragmentation hotspots are highly enriched in regulatory regions, such as open chromatin regions. The signals from these regions can help the diagnosis of early-stage cancers and their tissues-of-origin.

• Genetic Basis of Pulmonary Non-tuberculous Mycobacterial Infections

  This project aims at characterizing the human host susceptibility to pulmonary non-tuberculous mycobacterial (PNTM) infections. PNTM infections occur in patients with chronic lung disease, but also in a distinct group of elderly women without lung defects but who share a common body morphology: tall and lean with scoliosis, pectus excavatum, and mitral valve prolapse. We performed whole exome and genome sequencing in extended families of patients with active PNTM. This unique collection of familial cohorts in PNTM represents an important opportunity for a high yield search for genes that regulate mucosal immunity. We also sequenced the genome of mycobacterial isolates from PNTM patients to integrate host PNTM susceptibility with mycobacterial genotypes and gain insights into the key factors involved in this devastating disease.

• Screening Cases of Isolated Dystonia for Variants in CIZ1

  Recently, we have identified that variants in CIZ1 gene is associated with dystonia. To identify the prevalence of CIZ1 mutations in dystonia population, we use High resolution melting (HRM) to examine all the coding sequence in 3976 subjects with primary dystonia as well as 1819 subjects of normal controls. Indels in Q rich region of exon 2 in CIZ1 were identified in 21 subjects with dystonia but only 3 controls (P<0.05). Other single nucleotide change variants were also found in some of the patients which include a novel missense mutation (c.787A>G, p.R263G) found in a female patient with apparently familial dystonia. We confirmed that mutations in CIZ1 could be associated with dystonia but in rare cases.

• Genomics of Pediatric Renal Medullary Carcinomas

  Version 1We derived faithful cancer cell lines from patients with a diagnosis of renal medullary carcinomas (RMC). These models have been sequenced with whole genome, exome and transcriptome technologies along with the patient's primary germline and tumor samples. We took these faithful models and performed loss-of-function genetic perturbation screens (e.g. RNAi and CRISPR-Cas9) along with an orthogonal small molecule screen. We identified the ubiquitin-proteasome system as an important target in RMC as well as other SMARCB1 deficient cancers.Version 2We have collaborated with the Children's Oncology Group and the study AREN03B2 to study the cohort of patients with a central diagnosis of RMC. Here, we used 10x linked read sequencing along with RNA-sequencing to profile these matched tumor-normal pairs.
