Primary Cytotoxic T Cell Lymphomas Harbor Recurrent Targetable Alterations in the JAK-STAT Pathway

Cytotoxic cutaneous T cell lymphomas (CTCLs) are uncommon but highly aggressive cancers of skin-homing cytotoxic T cells. These include the established World Health Organization (WHO) entity primary cutaneous gamma delta T cell lymphomas (PCGDTLs), the provisional WHO entity primary cutaneous CD8+ aggressive epidermotropic T cell lymphoma (PCAETCL), and samples that do not currently fit into a WHO category, referred to as cytotoxic CTCL-NOS (not otherwise specified). In this study, 35 CTCL cases were examined, and 9 PCAETCL cases were confirmed by CD8 expression and full-thickness epidermotropism. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) and bulk RNA sequencing were performed on these samples.

Human Epilepsy Genetics: Mosaic Mutations in Focal Epilepsy

This study investigates the role of somatic mosaic mutations in human focal epilepsies, including focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) and mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE). It leverages genomic and single-cell transcriptomic data from surgically resected brain tissue to identify pathogenic variants and characterize their effects on specific cell types and molecular pathways. The study employs methods such as deep whole-exome and targeted sequencing, single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq), and integrated genotype-transcriptome profiling (e.g., GO-TEN) to define the cellular architecture and functional consequences of mosaic mutations. Data generated under this project aim to elucidate mechanisms of epileptogenesis and support discovery of potential therapeutic targets.

Genetic mutation profiling of lymphomas arising in the uterine cervix and vagina

Follicle center lymphoma (FCL) of the lower female genital tract (LFGT) is a rare lymphoma, with fewer than 20 cases reported to date. Since the genetic features of FCL of the LFGT have not been well characterized, we aimed to identify genetic alterations in this tumor through whole-exome sequencing or targeted gene panel analysis. Genomic DNA was extracted from a frozen tissue sample obtained from a surgically resected uterine cervical tumor. Whole-exome sequencing was performed using the Illumina NovaSeq X Plus platform. Library preparation was conducted with the SureSelect Human All Exon V6 kit, and sequencing was carried out with 150 bp paired-end reads.

Predictive value of genomic, transcriptomic and epigenetic biomarkers in patients with recurrent and/or metastatic HNSC treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors

Immune checkpoint inhibitors have improved survival in several solid tumors, including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). However, current use of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors relies on PD-L1 expression, which does not reliably predict patient response. Therefore, better predictive biomarkers are needed to identify which patients benefit from immunotherapy. Previous studies suggest that genomic and transcriptomic features may help predict treatment response. This study aims to integrate genomic, transcriptomic, and methylomic data from 31 patients with recurrent/metastatic HNSCC to identify new biomarkers of resistance to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy.

Mutational signatures in head and neck cancer (H019)

Genomic alterations are a driving force in the multistep process of head and neck cancer (HNC) and result from the interaction of exogenous environmental exposures and endogenous cellular processes. Each of these processes leaves a characteristic pattern of mutations on the tumor genome providing the unique opportunity to decipher specific signatures of mutational processes operative during HNC pathogenesis and to address their prognostic value. Computational analysis of whole exome sequencing data of the HIPO-HNC (n=83) and TCGA-HNSC (n=506) cohorts revealed five common mutational signatures (COSMIC signature 1, 2, 3, 13 and 16), and demonstrated their significant association with etiological risk factors (tobacco, alcohol and HPV16).

Ethiopia Genome Project (low coverage)

The Ethiopian area stands among the most ancient ones ever occupied by human populations and their ancestors. Particularly, according to archaeological evidences, it is possible to trace back the presence of Hominids up to at least 3 million years ago. Furthermore, the present day human populations show a great cultural, linguistic and historic diversity which makes them essential candidate to investigate a considerable part of the African variability. Following the typing of 300 Ethiopian samples on Illumina Omni 1M (see Human Variability in Ethiopia project, previously approved by the Genotyping committee) we now have a clearer idea on which populations living in the area include the most of the diversity.This project therefore aims to sequence the whole genome of 300 individuals at low (4-8x) depth belonging to the six most representative populations of the Ethiopian area to produce a unique catalogue of variants peculiar of the North East Africa. Furthermore 6 samples (one from each population) will also be sequenced at high (30x) depth to ensure full coverage of the diversity spectrum.The retrieved variants will be of great help in evaluating the demographic dynamics of those populations as well as shedding light on the migrations out of Africa.
