• Metagenomic Deep Sequencing in Meningitis and Encephalitis

  This is a prospective observational study seeking to identify pathogens in cases of unexplained neurological disease, particularly those in which there is a presumed infectious cause. This next generation analytical approach will hopefully allow for rapid identification of foreign genomic material, and through a sophisticated bioinformatics pipeline developed in the DeRisi lab, these foreign genomic sequences can be aligned to all known sequences in publicly available databases (i.e. GenBank) which may allow for identification of novel pathogens or known pathogens that are not frequently tested for as part of standard diagnostic work-ups.

• PE-CGS: Optimizing Engagement of Hispanic Colorectal Cancer Patients in Cancer Genomic Characterization Studies

  Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer death in the US. Hispanic/Latinos (H/L) are the largest and fasting growing ethnic group in the US, and cancer is the leading cause of death among H/L in the US. Therefore, we need to fully understand the full complexity of the molecular etiology of cancer in this ethnic group. For instance, although incidence rates of CRC are lower among Latinos as compared to Whites or African Americans, Hispanics with metastatic disease have shorter overall survival when adjusted for health care setting, demographics, disease characteristics and treatment factors. H/L also tend to be diagnosed at a younger age and with higher stage, and we have previously reported that Mexican H/L in California have the greatest proportion of young (The Cancer Genome Atlas has provided a deep overview of the molecular taxonomy of CRC in 594 cases, however, less than 1% of the cases (n=5) were H/L. Therefore, it is imperative for us to take more detailed assessment of the molecular genomic landscape of CRC in H/L. One of the major issues likely limiting our ability to perform these large genomic initiatives in minority patients is that Patient or Participant Engagement practices may not be investigated to identify best practices for accruing and consenting patients into clinical translational biomedical research studies. This concept of Participant Engagement is critically important for both the patients and the translational cancer research community. Optimizing and improving our approaches for directly engaging patients at initial contact, throughout the course of a translational genomic study, and during the time of return of results is likely to lead to stronger relationships between the medical community and patients, but could also lead to significant improvement in outcomes for patients and for the cancer care community as a whole. As such, we propose the creation of the USC Center for Optimization of Participant Engagement in Cancer Characterization (COPECC) with a focus on optimizing the engagement of Latinos in CRC Genomic Characterization research studies. USC COPECC would serve as a member of the NCI U2C Participant Engagement and Cancer Genome Sequencing (PE-CGS) Network. Our investigative team includes experts in all relevant areas of research for genomic characterization, participant engagement, and engagement optimization. We have an established platform for consenting patients into cancer genomics studies that will serve as a standard process. The overall goal of USC COPECC is to generate results on participant engagement optimization and CRC genomic research that will be shared with the broader community to distribute best practices for engaging Latinos in hopes of improving overall outcomes for CRC in this underserved population.

• A Comprehensive Platform for Analyzing Longitudinal Multi-Omics Data

  PALMO (Platform for Analyzing Longitudinal Multi-omics data) is a platform for analyzing longitudinal data from bulk as well as single cell. It allows to identify inter-, intra-donor variations in genes over longitudinal time points. The analysis can be done on bulk expression dataset without known cell type information or single cell with cell type or user defined groups. It allows to infer stable and variable features in a given donor and each cell type or a user defined group. The outlier analysis can be performed to identify technical/biological perturbed samples in a donor or a participant. Further, differential analysis can be performed to decipher time-wise changes in gene expression in a cell type. The data that is available in the dbGaP is the demo longitudinal samples used in the study, which includes hashed raw fastq files for single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) and non-hashed fastq files for single-cell ATAC-sequencing (scATAC) experiment.

• First genome-wide association study in an Australian Aboriginal population provides insights into genetic risk factors for Body Mass Index and Type 2 Diabetes

  A body mass index (BMI) >22kg/m2 is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Aboriginal Australians. To identify loci associated with BMI and T2D we undertook a genome-wide association study using 1,355,133 quality-controlled single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) genotyped (Illumina 2.5M Duo Beadchip) in 402 individuals in extended pedigrees from a Western Australian Aboriginal community. Imputation using the thousand genomes (1000G) reference panel extended the analysis to 6,724,284 post quality-control autosomal SNPs. No associations achieved genome-wide significance, commonly accepted as P<5x10-8. Nevertheless, genes/pathways in common with other ethnicities were identified despite the arrival of Aboriginal people in Australia >45,000 years ago. The top hit (rs10868204 Pgenotyped=1.50x10-6; rs11140653 Pimputed_1000G=2.90x10-7) for BMI lies 5’ of NTRK2, the type 2 neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor for brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) that regulates energy balance downstream of melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R). PIK3C2G (rs12816270 Pgenotyped=8.06x10-6; rs10841048 Pimputed_1000G=6.28x10-7) was associated with BMI, but not with T2D as reported elsewhere. BMI also associated with CNTNAP2 (rs6960319 Pgenotyped=4.65x10-5; rs13225016 Pimputed_1000G=6.57x10-5), previously identified as the strongest gene-by-environment interaction for BMI in African-Americans. The top hit (rs11240074 Pgenotyped=5.59x10-6, Pimputed_1000G=5.73x10-6) for T2D lies 5’ of BCL9 that, along with TCFL2, promotes beta-catenin’s transcriptional activity in the WNT signaling pathway. Additional hits occurred in genes affecting pancreatic (KCNJ6, KCNA1) and/or GABA (GABRR1, KCNA1) functions. Notable associations observed for genes previously identified at genome-wide significance in other populations included MC4R (Pgenotyped=4.49x10-4) for BMI and IGF2BP2 Pimputed_1000G=2.55x10-6) for T2D. Our results may provide novel functional leads in understanding disease pathogenesis in this Australian Aboriginal population.

• Sex Chromosome Aneuploidy Effects on Human Gene Expression

  Sex chromosome aneuploidy (SCA) syndromes are defined by the presence of a sex chromosome complement other than the typical XX for females and XY for males. SCAs are collectively common and increase risks for diverse immune, metabolic, and neuropsychiatric illnesses. Understanding genome-wide transcriptomic changes in SCAs is critical for clarifying the biological underpinnings of their clinical phenotypes. Assessments of sex chromosome dosage (SCD) effects on gene expression in humans have often been confined to the use of a few SCA subtypes (e.g., XO or XXY) - precluding analysis of the same SCD change in different contexts. Our study used RNA-seq data from lymphoblastoid cell lines in 197 individuals representing diverse SCA karyotypes (49 XX, 24 XXX, 39 XY, 39 XXY, 23 XXYY, 23 XYY) to assess expression changes for 25,075 genes in multiple pairwise SCD group comparisons. The paper reporting our findings has been cited below.

• A Multi-Omic Single-Cell Atlas of Human Gynecological Malignancies

  Matched single-cell transcriptomic sequencing (scRNA-seq) and single-cell chromatin accessibility sequencing (scATAC-seq) were performed for 11 fresh human tumors collected from the endometrium or ovary. More detailed information for each patient tumor will be provided in selected phenotype/attributes data. Both scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq assays revealed the underlying cellular heterogeneity in transcriptional output and in chromatin accessibility for each patient tumor specimen. In this work, we identified potential non-coding regulatory elements that mediate cell type-specific gene expression patterns. These data will serve as an important reference for the single-cell genomics and gynecologic oncology research communities.
