• Study of the role of aneuploidy in cB-ALL

  We modeled two proposed routes to hyperdiploidy, chromosome missegregation and cytokinesis failure, by transiently exposing human fetal liver–derived HSPCs to reversine or cytochalasin-D. Induced hyperdiploidy impaired fitness and delayed differentiation in vitro, causing hyperdiploid cells to be rapidly outcompeted by euploid counterparts. Nonetheless, hyperdiploid cells engrafted immunodeficient mice, where rare clones persisted long-term and acquired non-random chromosomal gains frequently observed in cB-ALL.

• Evolutionary trajectories and clonal migration underlying tumor progression and lymph node metastasis in resectable lung cancer

  In this prospective study, targeted deep sequencing was performed on a total of 160 primary tumors (474 regions) and 112 lymph nodes from 125 patients with stage I-III lung cancer (LuCaTH). Progressive evolution at clonal divergence scale was observed while specific driver events were positively selected for clonal sweeps during tumor development. Between-region genetic divergence (BRGD) of tumors were assessed and positively correlated with tumor differentiation. A machine learning algorithm was employed to evaluate clinicopathological and molecular parameters of primary tumors underlying lymph node metastasis. By analyzing clonal lineages and metastatic trajectories across multiple nodal stations, we unraveled a common sequential LNM seeding pattern but with divergent modes of clonal spread.

• A Genomic Approach to Warfarin Dose Prescription in Admixed Caribbean Hispanics

  Warfarin is an oral anticoagulant and one of the most used drugs in the world accounting for up to 1.5% of prescriptions globally. Warfarin inhibits vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1 (VKORC1), an enzyme responsible for the vitamin K recycling that is required for the activation of clotting factors. Warfarin is prescribed at an average dose of 5 mg/day for most of the indications but significant inter-patient variability has been observed. Single nucleotide variations at the VKORC1 (GeneID: 79001) and CYP2C9 (GeneID: 1559) genes alone explain from 28 to 35% of variability in warfarin dose requirements and up to 56% when clinical factors (age, gender, body surface area, diabetes and heart valve) are incorporated into regression analysis. However, genetic-guided dosing algorithms are mostly derived from studies in Europeans. The objective of the present study was to identify genetic polymorphisms that can explain variability in warfarin dose requirements among Caribbean Hispanics of Puerto Rico. VKORC1 (GeneID: 79001) and CYP2C9 (GeneID: 1559), the most important genetic predictors of warfarin response, were sequenced using Next Generation sequencing. Other candidate genes in DMET Plus Assay were assessed to identify genetic variants with relevance in warfarin dose requirements among Puerto Ricans. Our study used the Extreme Discordant Phenotype approach to perform a case-control association analysis that were confirmed with univariate and conditioned regressions. Accordingly, patients were stratified based on stable warfarin doses as sensitive (<4 mg/day), control (4-6 mg/day) and resistant (>6 mg/day). Genetic variants associated with warfarin response among the study cohort were used to perform a multivariate regression analyses to develop a genetic-guided dosing algorithm tailored for Puerto Ricans. The CYP2C9rs2860905 SNP was found to be strongly associated with warfarin dose requirements in Puerto Ricans. The CYP2C9 rs2860905 SNP tags four haplotypes that represent the trihybrid admixture of Puerto Ricans. Therefore, haplotypes harboring the rs2860905 variant are more informative in predicting warfarin dose among Puerto Ricans than the common single segregating SNPs (i.e., CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3) relevant to Europeans. DMET Plus array confirmed the strong association of VKORC1 (GeneID: 79001) and CYP2C9 (GeneID: 1559) with warfarin dose requirements, but also identified other polymorphisms in CES2 (GeneID: 8824) and ABCB1 (GeneID: 5243) associated with warfarin resistance (>6 mg/day). Ancestry analysis showed that Puerto Ricans from Veteran Affairs Caribbean Healthcare System (VACHS) using warfarin had higher Native American proportions than Puerto Ricans from the 1000 Genomes project; however, this difference was not significant. Incorporation of rs2860905 in a regression model (R2=0.60 MSE=0.38) that also included additional genetic predictors (i.e., VKORC1-1639G>A; CYP2C9 rs1856908; ABCB1 rs10276036; CES2 rs4783745) and non-genetic factors (i.e., hypertension, diabetes and age) showed better prediction of warfarin dose requirements than CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 combined (partial R2=0.132 versus 0.023 and 0.007, respectively, p<0.001). Interestingly, deep vein thrombosis and diabetes were found associated with high warfarin dose requirements among Puerto Ricans. Our results support the use of CYP2C9 rs2860905 along with other genetic markers [e.g., VKORC1(GeneID: 79001 )] and clinical covariates to predict warfarin dose in Puerto Ricans. Although our findings need further replication, this study contributes to the field of Pharmacogenetics and to improve anticoagulation therapy among Puerto Ricans.

• Genome-Wide Predictors of Treatment-Related Toxicities in SWOG S0221 Trial

  When undergoing treatment for breast cancer, many women experience severe side effects, some of which result in treatment-related death and some that can persist for years. Little is understood regarding factors that may predict drug toxicities. Pharmacogenetics, the investigation of variants in candidate genes in drug metabolism pathways, has been used to determine susceptibility to treatment-related toxicities, as well as to cancer recurrence. Although there have been some strong and important findings using this approach, such as identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that predispose to side effects associated with thiopurines and irinotecan, there has been less progress in assessment of genetic variants that predispose to toxicities resulting from the multi-drug regimen commonly used to treat breast cancer, anthracyclines (A), cyclophosphamide (C), and taxanes (T). These difficulties in identification of key gene variants may be due to the complex metabolic pathways of these drugs, the lack of rate limiting enzymes in the processes, or the limitations of single SNP analysis, rather than capturing all of the variability across the genes. In addition to drug metabolism pathways, however, there may be a number of constitutional factors or other processes that affect damage to normal tissues in the course of chemotherapy, some known or hypothesized, such as DNA repair and oxidative stress pathways, and others not yet discovered. However, there have been no clear candidate genes that account for a large part of the variation in drug or treatment response, and there are likely important genes that influence sensitivity of cells to chemotherapy through unknown pathways which have not yet been identified or hypothesized. The present technological capabilities to screen the entire genome for variants that discriminate populations allows the opportunity to identify these as yet unknown pathways, and open the doors to exciting new avenues of research into mechanisms that had not been previously considered. We conducted a genome-wide scan (GWAS) in a clinical trial (S0221), in which women with high risk breast cancer were treated with different dosing schedules of C, A and T. Blood specimens were collected and banked, and DNA extracted for genotyping on the Illumina OMNI 1M platform. The GWAS data were used to examine genetic variants significantly associated with grades 3 and 4 toxicities, including peripheral neuropathy recorded during the T segment. In S0221, toxicities were graded according to the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). The neurotoxicity is predominantly a distal sensory neuropathy, which is characterized by pain, numbness, tingling, and reduced functional capacity in the extremities. Other symptoms include parasthesias, ataxia, impaired vibration and joint position sense, and loss of tendon reflexes. By using a GWAS approach, it is likely that important pathways not previously considered can be revealed as important in susceptibility to treatment-related toxicities, identifying those at greatest risk for alternate drugs or dose reduction, and opening new areas of research for prevention of taxanes-related neuropathy among patients receiving chemotherapy for breast cancer.

• Transcriptomic analysis of liver CD8+ T cells

  Sorted single CD8+T cells expressing CD14 from human liver for SMARTSeq2. Livers processed: Kucykowicz et al STAR Prot 2022:pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35516846/ Published: Pallett et al Nature 2022 Tissue CD14+CD8+T-cells are reprogrammed by myeloid cells and modulated by LPS The liver is bathed in bacterial products including LPS transported from the intestinal portal vasculature, but maintains a state of tolerance exploited by persistent pathogens and tumours1,2,3,4. The cellular basis mediating this tolerance, yet allowing a switch to immunity or immunopathology, needs to be better understood for successful immunotherapy of liver diseases. Here we show that a variable proportion of CD8+T-cells compartmentalised in the human liver co-stain for CD14 and other prototypic myeloid membrane proteins; CD14+CD8+T-cells preferentially accumulate within the donor pool in liver allografts, amongst hepatic virus-specific and tumour-infiltrating responses, and in cirrhotic ascites. CD14+CD8+T-cells exhibit increased turnover, activation and constitutive immunomodulatory features with high homeostatic IL-10/IL-2 production directly ex vivo, and an enhanced capacity to rapidly produce antiviral/anti-tumour cytokines upon TCR engagement. This CD14+CD8+T-cell profile can be recapitulated by acquisition of membrane proteins, including the LPS receptor complex, from mononuclear phagocytes, resulting in augmented tumour killing by TCR-redirected T-cells in vitro. CD14+CD8+T-cells express integrins and chemokine receptors favouring interactions with the local stroma, which can promote their induction through CXCL12. LPS can also increase the frequency of CD14+CD8+T-cells in vitro and in vivo, and skew their function towards the production of chemotactic and regenerative cytokines. Thus, bacterial products in the gut-liver axis and tissue stromal factors can tune liver immunity by driving myeloid instruction of CD8+T-cells with immunomodulatory capacity. For the analysis of the single cell transcriptome two intrahepatic perfusate samples were isolated and frozen at -80 'C for storage prior to transportation to Newcastle, UK. Once thawed in pre-warmed HBSS containing 0.001% DNaseI, intrahepatic leukocytes were sorted by FACS to index classical mononuclear phagocytes (MNP) defined as Singlets, CD3-CD56-CD19-CD14hiHLA-DR+ or CD14± CD8+T-cells as follows: Singlets, CD3+CD56-CD19-CD4-CD8+V7.2- and split in to CD14± based on an isotype control. Single cells were sorted into 96-well skirted LoBind plates (Eppendorf) containing 5 µL lysis buffer (TCL buffer [Qiagen], supplemented with 1% b-mercaptoethanol [Sigma Aldrich; Merck]) on a BD Bioscience FACSFusion. The sorted plates were subsequently immediately sealed, centrifuged, and placed on dry ice to flash-freeze the cell lysate and stored at -80 'C. A modified SMART-seq2 protocol57 was performed on the single flow cytometry sorted-cells as previously described58. After cDNA generation, libraries were prepared (384 cells per library) using the Illumina Nextera XT kit (Illumina). Each library was sequenced to achieve a minimum depth of 1-2 million raw reads per cell using an Illumina HiSeq 4000 using v. 4 SBS chemistry to generate 75-bp paired-end reads.

• National Eye Institute Glaucoma Human Genetics Collaboration (NEIGHBOR) Consortium Glaucoma Genome-Wide Association Study: Whole Exome Resequencing in Glaucoma

  This is a study of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) conducted through exome sequencing of cases and comparison of variant frequencies with general population frequencies available in dbGAP and controlled for sequencing platform artifact to minimize false positives. POAG is an intraocular pressure (IOP) related progressive optic neuropathy that ultimately leads to blindness. This study builds upon the efforts of an on-going collaborative consortium that studied 2,170 POAG cases and 2,347 controls with a unified definition of POAG (the NEIGHBOR consortium: NEI Glaucoma Human genetic collaBORation). The case definition for NEIGHBOR was harmonized with an additional 976 cases and 1140 controls from the NHGRI supported GENEVA (gene-environment) study of glaucoma (GLAUGEN) (NIH/NHGRI U01HG004728, Pasquale PI). In NEIGHBOR, cases and controls were recruited from ophthalmology clinics and were examined by ophthalmologists. For cases, the clinical exam included intraocular pressure measurements, optic nerve assessment and visual field evaluation. Controls had no family history of glaucoma, normal intraocular pressure and normal optic nerves. Cases and controls were also drawn from two clinical trial populations: Advanced Glaucoma Intervention Study (AGIS, NEI U10EY006827, D. Gaasterland PI) and Collaborative Initial Glaucoma Treatment Study (CIGTS, NEI U10 EY009149, P. Lichter PI). The Glaucoma Exome Sequencing study has one Principal Investigator: Theresa Gaasterland (UCSD) and two Co-Investigators: Robert Weinreb, MD, and Kang Zhang, MD, PhD, all of whom are part of the NEIGHBOR, subsequently NEIGHBORHOOD, consortium, which in turn has two Co-Principal Investigators: J. Wiggs (Harvard, MEEI), and M. Hauser (Duke). NEIGHBOR collaborators who contributed samples and/or expertise to the Glaucoma Exome Sequencing study included the following: Harvard Medical School (Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary) (J.

• Defining T cell States Associated with Response to Checkpoint Immunotherapy in Melanoma

  Checkpoint blockade therapy using antibodies targeting CTLA4, PD1 or PDL1 have changed the way cancer patients with advanced disease are being treated, as evident by their FDA approval in a wide variety of malignancies, and their ability to induce high response rates when compared to conventional therapies (e.g. chemotherapy). However, even in melanoma, despite the high response rate, most patients are refractory to therapy or acquire resistance in 10-12 months. To identify key immunological elements coupled with response or resistance to checkpoint immunotherapy, we performed an unbiased analysis on 16,291 CD45+ immune cells from 32 patients (48 samples) treated with checkpoint therapy (anti-PD1=37; anti-PD1/CTLA4=11), using single cell transcriptomics. Initial unsupervised clustering of all CD45+ cells identified 11 clusters. When examining the association of these clusters with clinical outcome, we found that two clusters (B-cells, p=0.005; memory T-cells, p=0.03) were significantly enriched in responder lesions while 4 clusters (monocytes/macrophages, p=0.003; dendritic cells, p=0.015; exhausted CD8+ T-cells, p=0.005; and exhausted/cell-cycle lymphocytes, 1.3x10-5) are enriched in non-responder lesions. Next, by leveraging our unbiased single cell approach, we identified not only clusters but also specific markers associated with either responder lesions (PLAC8, LTB, LY9, SELL, TCF7, IGKC and CCR7) or non-responder ones (CCL3, CD38, HAVCR2, ENTPD1 and WARS), many of which were not previously reported to be associated with clinical outcome to checkpoint therapy. Due to the importance of CD8+ T-cells in controlling tumors, the significant association of T-cell states with clinical outcome, and their high abundance in melanoma tumors, we next focused our analysis on CD8+ T-cells and identified 2 main clusters CD8_G (with increased expression of genes linked to memory) and CD8_B (enriched for genes linked to cell dysfunction), that were significantly enriched in responder (CD8_G, p=1.4x10-6) and non-responder (CD8_B, p=0.005) lesions, respectively. Since cells with both states coexist in each of the responder and non-responder lesions, we decided to calculate the ratio between the number of cells in these 2 clusters and observed a significant separation between responders (CD8_G/CD8_B>1) and non-responders (CD8_G/CD8_B<1) when looking at all samples, baseline or post samples separately. Similar results were detected when looking at the expression of a single transcription factor, TCF7, in CD8 T-cells in an independent cohort (n=43) using a simple immunofluorescence assay. Additionally, we validated the identity and function of some of the newly identified cell states as well as their epigenetic landscape, and found that cells expressing the inhibitory molecules CD39 and TIM3, on top of being enriched in non-responder lesions, are likely to play a crucial role in T-cell exhaustion in melanoma. Collectively, our study provides extensive unbiased data in human tumors for discovery of predictors and therapeutic targets to checkpoint immunotherapy.

• FHS-Net Social Networks

  Note: Data Use Restrictions: The data must only be used for genetic research projects solely in the area of health-related social-network research. This study compiles detailed information on family and social ties linked to participants in the offspring cohort of the Framingham Heart Study. The investigators took computerized information from self-report data used by the FHS for over 30 years to facilitate health exam scheduling. These tracking sheets asked participants to identify people close to them, which were assumed by the investigators to indicate a social tie. Individuals are listed as "egos" (if the ties are from their perspective) and/or "alters" (if they are linked as a friend or family members to one of the other participants). All egos were FHS offspring participants while alters could be FHS participants in any cohort or non-participants. This information was combined with internal FHS pedigree data on family ties to list family member alters (as well as the nature of their relationship). The resultant dataset therefore includes each ego-alter tie, the nature of their relationship and the start and end dates for their ties for each of seven waves for the offspring study. Due to privacy concerns, all exam dates for individuals are listed relative to the initial FHS exam date. The study investigators chose a random, confidential date, to which all initial exam dates are linked (by number of months from random date to initial exam date). With this information, researchers can have access to the temporal relationships among participants' exam dates while remaining unaware of the actual exam dates for individual participants. During each clinic exam cycle, the participants undergo a detailed examination including physical examination, medical history, laboratory testing, and electrocardiogram. Over the years, other tests (that may not be performed at every exam cycle) have included pulmonary function, lifestyle, physical function, cognitive function questionnaires, and various noninvasive cardiovascular tests including echocardiograms. This study involves phenotypic data from these exams including (when available) basic body measurements (height, weight, blood pressure), laboratory values (blood sugar levels, LDL levels), information on smoking and alcohol use, and tests of depression and cognitive functioning.

• NHLBI GO-ESP: Heart Cohorts Exome Sequencing Project (Siblings with Ischemic Stroke Study, SWISS)

  The NHLBI "Grand Opportunity" Exome Sequencing Project (GO-ESP), a signature project of the NHLBI Recovery Act investment, was designed to identify genetic variants in coding regions (exons) of the human genome (the "exome") that are associated with heart, lung and blood diseases. These and related diseases that are of high impact to public health and individuals from diverse racial and ethnic groups will be studied. These data may help researchers understand the causes of disease, contributing to better ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat diseases, as well as determine whether to tailor prevention and treatments to specific populations. This could lead to more effective treatments and reduce the likelihood of side effects. GO-ESP is comprised of five collaborative components: 3 cohort consortia - HeartGO, LungGO, and WHISP - and 2 sequencing centers - BroadGO and SeattleGO. The Siblings with Ischemic Stroke Study (SWISS) is an affected sibpair (ASP) study of patients and their brothers/sisters who have had similar strokes. The study was conducted to determine the genes that contribute to an individual's risk of developing an ischemic stroke (a stroke due to sudden interruption of blood flow to a part of the brain). Over 600 people have participated in SWISS, with the coordination of the recruitment and flow of the samples occurring at the Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, FL, under the direction of James F. Meschia, MD. The University of Virginia (Stephen S. Rich, PhD) served as the analytic site for the genetic data. Participants were excluded from SWISS if they had stroke following an invasive cerebrovascular or cardiovascular procedure, if their stroke occurred shortly following an aneurismal subarachnoid hemorrhage, if the stroke occurred in the setting of a mechanical aortic or mitral valve, if the patient had definite CNS vasculitis or if the patient had a Mendelian mitochondrial stroke disorder, including CADASIL, MELAS, Fabry disease, sickle cell anemia or homocysteinemia. For the NHLBI ESP, the youngest 51 ASPs (102 individuals) from SWISS were selected to undergo exome sequencing. These ASPs were selected from among all SWISS participants, excluding those pedigrees with individuals who had TOAST subtypes of stroke of other etiology or of stroke with undetermined etiology. In addition, the affected siblings were required to have the same TOAST subtype (both small vessel (lacunar) or both large vessel (atherosclerotic)). Of those selected, 98 samples passed initial quality control metrics, and 94 completed exome sequencing and were deposited in dbGaP. An additional set of 590 samples from the SWISS collection has been genotyped on the ExomeChip that contained a subset of rare/infrequent variants identified by exome sequencing. These samples include 495 affected individuals (from multiple affected family members) as well as 95 unaffected family members. These genetic and phenotypic data also will reside in dbGaP.

• The Finland-United States Investigation of NIDDM Genetics (FUSION) Study - Islet Expression and Regulation by RNAseq and ATACseq

  This study evaluates gene expression and its regulation in human pancreatic islets, a tissue relevant in the study of genetic risk factors contributing to diabetes. We obtained pancreatic tissue sections and purified pancreatic islets from deceased donors and processed these biological samples to generate various data types. We generated spatial transcriptomic data from pancreatic tissue samples using the 10X Genomics VISIUM technology with sequencing on the Illumina NovaSeq platform. We also generated multiple data types from the purified pancreatic islets using genome-wide SNP chips, bulk RNA-Seq, microRNA (miRNA)-Seq, whole genome sequence, DNA methylation (methyl)-Seq, cap analysis of gene expression (CAGE)-Seq, single cell RNA-seq, and single nuclei ATAC-seq approaches. These data include ATAC-seq of two islet subjects, RNA-seq of 31 additional subjects, genome-wide chip genotypes, and imputed genotypes of the 33 subjects released with phs001188.v1. For genotyping, 500-1000 islet equivalents (IEQ) were cultured as in Gershengorn (Science, 2004, PMID: 15564314); genomic DNA isolated from islet cultures. For RNA analyses, 2500-5000 IEQ from each islet source were used for bulk or single-cell RNA isolation. Messenger RNA was isolated with trizol extraction and 12-plex libraries were generated using the Illumina TruSeq directional mRNA-seq library protocol. Bulk RNA sequencing was performed on HiSeq2000/HiSeq2500/Hiseq4000/NovaSeq6000 sequencers using paired-end reads at the NIH Intramural Sequencing Center (NISC). miRNA libraries were prepared from total RNA from 68 samples, pooled and sequenced 50bp single-end reads on Illumina HiSeq2500. CAGE libraries were prepared from total RNA samples using the nAnT-iCAGE protocol at DNAFORM, Japan. CAGE libraries were sequenced at the NIH Intramural Sequencing Center (NISC) on the HiSeq2000 sequencer. Genotyping on the Illumina Omni2.5M array was performed at the NHGRI Genomics Core facility. Genotypes were imputed using the HRC.r1.1.2016 reference panel. To assess regions of open chromatin in islets, we performed bulk ATAC-seq on HiSeq2000 sequencers using paired-end reads at NISC. Single-nuclei ATAC-seq libraries were prepared using single-cell-combinatorial-indexing (sci-) ATAC-seq protocol and sequenced on Illumina NextSeq using paired-end reads. scRNA-seq libraries were generated using the 10X Genomics platform and sequenced on Illumina HiSeq3000 at the Genomics Technology Core of the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS). Greater than 90% of the loci associated with T2D through genome-wide association studies occur in non-coding regions, suggesting a strong regulatory component to disease susceptibility. Therefore, there is a critical need to understand the full spectrum of genetic variation and regulatory element usage in T2D-relevant tissues. To that end, this study contains multiple genomic and transcriptomic data sets from pancreas tissue sections and pancreatic islets, a resource that will contribute to our efforts to investigate the genetic risk factors for type 2 diabetes.
