• Transcriptomic profiling of circulating regulatory T cells from follicular lymphoma patients before and after Lenalidomide treatment

  Lenalidomide has demonstrated a favorable efficacy profile in follicular lymphoma (FL) in combination with anti-CD20 antibodies. However, in vivo administration of Lenalidomide in FL patients triggers a proliferation of functional regulatory T cells (Tregs), and a high percentage of Tregs before and along the course of treatment with Lenalidomide/anti-CD20 combination is of poor prognosis. In this study, we evaluated the impact of Lenalidomide on circulating Treg in 3 FL patients using single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq). For this purpose, we took advantage of the GALEN clinical trial (NCT01582776), where Lenalidomide was initiated one week before starting the anti-CD20 antibody Obinutuzumab, allowing us to compare the transcriptomic profile of immune cells before (D0) and at day 7 (D7) of treatment by Lenalidomide alone.

• Genetic Risk for Subsequent Neoplasms among Long-term Survivors of Childhood Cancer in the St. Jude Lifetime Cohort

  While childhood cancer survivors are known to be at increased risk of subsequent neoplasms (SNs), the contribution of germline mutations in cancer predisposition genes to the risk of SN is largely unknown. Whole-genome sequencing (30X) was performed on 3,006 5+ year survivors of childhood cancer (median age, 35.8 [range: 7.1-69.8] years) from the St. Jude Lifetime Cohort. Survivors underwent a comprehensive clinical assessment. Germline mutations in 156 cancer predisposition genes (SJCPG156), including a subset of 60 (SJCPG60) autosomal dominant genes with moderate to high penetrance, were classified for their pathogenicity. Piecewise exponential regression, stratified by radiation exposure, was used to evaluate the relative rate (RR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of SN occurrence by mutation status. Pathogenic or likely pathogenic mutations in SJCPG156 and SJCPG60 were identified in 11.7% and 5.8% of survivors, respectively. The most frequently mutated SJCPG60 genes included RB1 (n=43), NF1 (n=22), BRCA2 (n=14), BRCA1 (n=12) and TP53 (n=10). Mutations in SJCPG60 were associated with the rate of subsequent sarcoma (RR, 10.3; 95% CI, 4.2 to 25.6) and breast cancer (RR, 13.3; 95% CI, 5.8 to 30.5) among irradiated survivors, and the rate of developing any SN (RR, 4.8; 95% CI, 2.4 to 9.4) and breast cancer (RR, 7.8; 95% CI, 2.5 to 24.0) among non-irradiated survivors. The rate of developing ≥2 histologically distinct SNs was increased 17.8-fold (95% CI, 3.5 to 89.8) among SJCPG60 mutation carriers treated without radiotherapy. Similar but attenuated associations were observed for mutations in SJCPG156. Survivors who develop a SN without prior radiotherapy or who are diagnosed with a subsequent sarcoma or breast cancer within a site of prior radiotherapy should be referred to genetic counseling.

• RNA-sequencing from duodenal bipsies of Celiac disease patients

  Samples, in a form of PAXgene fixed and paraffin-embedded biopsies, were collected from the multi-site, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, aimed at dose-finding and assessing the efficacy and tolerability of a 6-week treatment with ZED1227 capsules vs. placebo in subjects with well-controlled celiac disease undergoing gluten challenge. Total RNA was extracted from the PaxFPE biopsy specimens (n = 116) using additional cuttings from the samples on which histomorphometry was previously assessed. For the extraction, an RNeasy Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) was used according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Library preparation and next-generation sequencing (NGS) were performed by the Qiagen NGS Service. A total of 10 ng of purified RNA was converted into cDNA NGS libraries. Library preparation was quality controlled using capillary electrophoresis. Based on the quality of the inserts and the concentration measurements, the libraries were pooled in equimolar ratios and then sequenced on a NextSeq (Illumina Inc., San Diego, USA) sequencing instrument according to the manufacturer’s instructions, with 100 bp read length for read 1 and 27bp for read 2. The raw data were de-multiplexed, and FASTQ files for each sample were generated using bcl2fastq2 software (Illumina Inc., San Diego, USA).

• The EGA joins EUCAIM, the European project powering AI and imaging in cancer research

  EUCAIM (EUropean Federation for CAncer IMages) is the cornerstone of the European Cancer Imaging Initiative, one of the flagships of the Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan (EBCP). The European Genome-Phenome Archive (EGA), as member of the EUCAIM consortium, attended the kick-off meeting organized this week in Brussels for the launch of the Initiative. The EGA will contribute to the project with the experience gained in the deployment of our federated network, the Federated EGA (FEGA), and the experience gained as partners of EuCanImage (AI4HI initiative) contributing to the definition of common data models, ontologies and data standards. The ultimate goal of the project is to unlock the power of imaging and Artificial Intelligence for the benefit of cancer patients, clinicians and researchers. The consortium will deploy a pan-European digital federated infrastructure hosting cancer-related images, and associated pathology, molecular and laboratory data from Real-World. This endeavour will provide a comprehensive dashboard for imaging data discovery, federated search, metadata harvesting, annotation and distributed data processing. EUCAIM joins 76 partners, gathering the experience and previous effort made by the different repositories of the AI4HI initiative, European Research Infrastructures and national/regional repositories.

• GCAT | Genomes for life

  The GCAT project is a prospective cohort study that was designed to recruit the general population of Catalonia, the north-east region of Spain. This study is a long-term genomic, environmental and lifestyle cohort project that aims to evaluate and track multiple pathologies as well as biologically related traits. By the end of 2017, the GCAT Study had recruited a total of 20 000 participants aged 40–65 years. Participants who agreed to take part in the study completed a self-administered computer-driven questionnaire, and underwent blood pressure, cardiac frequency and anthropometry measurements. For each participant, blood plasma, blood serum and white blood cells are collected at baseline. The GCAT Study has access to the electronic health records of the Catalan Public Healthcare System. Participants are followed biannually for/during, at least, 20 years after recruitment. Therefore, the GCAT Study offers a unique opportunity to integrate diverse data to allow the identification of novel relations among different biomarkers and conditions. Results may lead to the development of new genetic, genomic, epigenomic and proteomic diagnoses and screening tests, as well as new public health recommendations. The only currently available population-based prospective cohort study in Spain to the date, including more than 4899 genotyped participants and 800 whole genome sequences is now stored in the EGA archive under accession id EGAS00001003018.

• Detection of Cancer Mutations by Urine Liquid Biopsy in Bladder Cancer Patients

  The management of bladder cancer faces multiple challenges concerning the diagnostics and fol-low-up approaches. The standard diagnostic test is invasive cystoscopy. Urine cytology and re-cently proposed urine-based biomarkers still could not replace cystoscopy, thus prompting calls for improvements. Here, we explore urine liquid biopsy to detect cancer mutations for therapeutic and prognostic assessment and subsequently evaluate the utility of urine as a suitable specimen in diagnosing bladder cancer. Our findings show that the analysis of pre-and post-operative urine enables the characterization of specific tumor mutations, which can be used to diagnose and evaluate a patient’s prognosis and therapy response.

• Spatially resolved antigen receptor and gene expression data from breast cancer patients

  The dataset includes spatially-resolved and single-cell antigen receptor, as well as gene expression, data from two different HER2+ breast cancer patients. The tumor piece obtained during surgery from each patient was divided into several regions and tissue sections were used for spatial transcriptomics (Visium, 10x genomics). As indicated, some tissue sections were analyzed by a new method (Spatial VDJ) to spatially resolve antigen receptor sequences (target capture), which was developed in our publication. In parallel, tissue pieces from the same tumor were dissociated for single-cell gene expression analysis (10x genomics GEX, VDJ, and feature barcoding/Hash Tag Oligonucleotide). The deposited data is in the form of fastq files. All processed data, metadata, micrographs of the tissue sections (of those used for spatial transcriptomics), and scripts used for the analysis are publicly available at Zenodo (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.7961605). Final libraries were sequenced on NextSeq2000 (Illumina) or NovaSeq6000 (Illumina) and analyzed with Cell Ranger, Seurat, Space Ranger, and STutility pipelines.

• Spatially resolved antigen receptor and gene expression data from human tonsil tissue

  The dataset includes spatially-resolved gene expression and antigen receptor data from two Tonsil samples (1 and 2). Tissue sections from the tonsil samples were used for spatial transcriptomics (Visium, 10x genomics). Tonsil 2 tissue sections were analyzed by a new method (Spatial VDJ) to spatially resolve antigen receptor sequences (target capture), which was developed in our publication. Nearby or adjacent tissue sections (from Tonsil2) were also analyzed by a bulk antigen receptor sequencing approach (amplicon sequencing), by a method also newly developed by us in the same publication (Bulk SS3 VDJ). For Visium, the data were anonymized (all SNPs removed) using Bamboozle (Ziegenhain and Sandberg, Nature Communications 2021). The deposited data is in the form of fastq files. All remaining data, metadata, micrographs of the tissue sections (of those used for spatial transcriptomics), and scripts used for the analysis are available at Zenodo (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.7961605). Final libraries were sequenced on NextSeq2000 (Illumina) or NovaSeq6000 (Illumina) and analyzed with Seurat, Space Ranger, and STutility pipelines.

• Is the Gut Important in Multiple Joint Osteoarthritis? A Multimodal Investigation in Humans and Pet Dogs

  The Gut Health in Multiple Joint Osteoarthritis (MJOA) Study leverages data from parallel community-based cohorts in humans and in pet dogs to elucidate the role of altered microbiota in MJOA. One hundred Johnston County Health Study human participants were 35 to 70 years of age at enrollment (2022-2023), self-identified as Hispanic, White, or Black, and lived in Johnston County, North Carolina. Demographic, clinical information, multiple joint radiographs, and stool samples for microbiome profiling by 16S rRNA gene sequencing were obtained from all participants. Similar data were collected from an independent group of pet dogs (N=115) from the local community, at the North Carolina State University (NCSU) College of Veterinary Medicine. The central hypothesis of the study is that intestinal permeability, with or without dysbiosis, is a major driver in the development and worsening of MJOA.
