• Description and determinants of the faecal resistome and microbiome of farmers and slaughterhouse workers: a metagenome-wide cross-sectional study.

  Within this study, we extracted DNA of 194 stool samples of persons living or working on pig and broiler farms (54 pig farmers, 24 broiler farmers), 70 pig slaughterhouse workers and 46 control subjects (Lifelines population living in the Northern parts of the Netherlands, and without recent antimicrobial use and occupational livestock contact). Total DNA was sequenced and metagenomic analysis was performed. Subsequently, the faecal resistomes and microbiomes were described and analysed (doi: 10.1016/j.envint.2020.105939). Highlights study: • Food chain workers are exposed to antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacteria in livestock. • We describe faecal resistomes and microbiomes of farmers and slaughterhouse workers. • Faecal AMR gene loads in pork exposed workers exceed those in broiler farmers/controls. • Resistome and microbiome differences are shown between and within occupational groups. • On-farm working hours and working/living on a pig farm determine the faecal resistome. • Contact with livestock may be a determinant for human AMR gene carriage. This study is part of the EFFORT project: http://www.effort-against-amr.eu/.

• A blood atlas of COVID-19 defines hallmarks of disease severity and specificity

  Treatment of severe COVID-19 is currently limited by clinical heterogeneity and incomplete understanding of potentially druggable immune mediators of disease. To advance this, we present a comprehensive multi-omic blood atlas in patients with varying COVID-19 severity and compare with influenza, sepsis and healthy volunteers. We identify immune signatures and correlates of host response. Hallmarks of disease severity revealed cells, their inflammatory mediators and networks as potential therapeutic targets, including progenitor cells and specific myeloid and lymphocyte subsets, features of the immune repertoire, acute phase response, metabolism and coagulation. Persisting immune activation involving AP-1/p38MAPK was a specific feature of COVID-19. The plasma proteome enabled sub-phenotyping into patient clusters, predictive of severity and outcome. Tensor and matrix decomposition of the overall dataset revealed feature groupings linked with disease severity and specificity. Our systems-based integrative approach and blood atlas will inform future drug development, clinical trial design and personalised medicine approaches for COVID-19.

• The Human Pancreas Analysis Program (HPAP)

  The past decade has seen a dramatic improvement in our ability to phenotype and molecularly profile human tissues with unprecedented resolution at the genomic, epigenomic, protein, and functional levels. The Human Pancreas Analysis Program (HPAP), part of the Human Islet Research Network and supported by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) through multiple NIH grants, is performing deep phenotyping of the human endocrine pancreas to better understand the cellular and molecular events that precede and lead to beta-cell loss and/or dysfunction in type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) as well as to accumulate, analyze, and distribute high-value data sets to the diabetes research community through the HPAP PANC-DB database (and additional details provided at that site). To this end, HPAP employs state-of-the-art technologies to perform comprehensive analyses of pancreas biology as it pertains to organ donors with T1D, autoantibody-positive donors without diabetes, donors with T2D, and control donors. Pancreas procurement and analyses take advantage of the expertise and extensive network of Organ Procurement Organizations (OPOs) and autoantibody screening centers established through the JDRF/The Lenona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust (HCT) – funded nPOD program. In contrast to nPOD, the major product provided by HPAP is not archived biomaterial subject to broad distribution, but rather, the delivery of extensive and high-quality molecular data sets to the diabetes research community in order to facilitate further discovery. Together, nPOD and HPAP are complementary programs that assist the diabetes community and afford the maximal opportunity for advancing knowledge about the pathogenesis of T1D and T2D.

• Genomic and transcriptomic profiling of combined hepatocellular and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma reveals distinct molecular subtypes

  We performed genomic and transcriptomic sequencing of 133 combined hepatocellular and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-ICC) cases, including separate, combined, and mixed subtypes.

• DNA and RNA Profiling Using Simultaneous Sequencing (Simul-seq)

  Paired DNA and RNA profiling is increasingly employed in genomics research to uncover molecular mechanisms of disease and to explore personal genotype and phenotype correlations. We developed a novel simultaneous DNA and RNA sequencing approach (Simul-seq) that enables comprehensive genomic and transcriptomic profiles from small quantities of cells or tissues. In this study, Simul-seq was performed on patient-derived fibroblast cells as well as an esophageal adenocarcinoma tumor sample and compared with standard DNA and RNA-sequencing approaches.

• PELICAN33 longitudinal clinical and autopsy phenomic assessment in lethal metastatic prostate cancer

  Objective: To identify novel phenotypes and features associated with metastatic prostate cancer (mPC) outcome, and to identify biomarker and data requirements to be tested in future precision oncology trials. Design, Setting, and Participants: We analyzed deep longitudinal clinical, neuroendocrine expression, and autopsy data of 33 men who died from mPC between 1995 and 2004 (PELICAN33), and related findings to mPC biomarkers reported in the literature. Intervention: 33 men prospectively consented to participate in an integrated clinical-molecular rapid autopsy study of mPC.

• Idiosyncratic and generic single nuclei and spatial transcriptional patterns in papillary and anaplastic thyroid cancers

  Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignancy. This dataset encompasses two types of thyroid cancer : anaplastic which is the most de-differentiated and aggressive one, and papillary which is the most common one. We profiled 14 patients, including 10 papillary and 4 anaplastic thyroid carcinomas, using both single nuclei RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics to link single cell resolution RNA sequencing with tissue morphology and better understand inter and intratumoral thyroid cancer heterogeneity.

• Performance Characteristics of Selective Targeted Enrichment in Genetic Diagnostic Testing

  The Nex-StoCT and ACMG recommend that validation of an NGS-based diagnostic test include performance test characteristics for assay accuracy, analytical sensitivity and specificity, reproducibility and repeatability. To measure these parameters for the GEDi capture and sequencing test, 4 samples (three randomly selected patient samples and the NA12878 HapMap sample) were prepared and sequenced in triplicate on each of three separate days. We also performed WES and SNP array genotyping analyses of these 4 samples using Agilent V4+UTR whole exome enrichment kit and Illumina Omni 2.5 SNP arrays, respectively.

• Nivolumab and Ipilimumab and Radiation Therapy in Microsatellite Stable (MSS) and Microsatellite Instable (MSI) High Colorectal and Pancreatic Cancer

  This is a single-arm, non-randomized, phase 2 trial (NCT03104439) combining radiation, ipilimumab and nivolumab in patients with metastatic MSS Colorectal Cancer (CRC; n=40) and Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Cancer (PDAC; n=25). Patients were previously treated population, and the primary endpoint was disease control rate. Pre- and post-treatment samples were subjected to RNA sequencing and whole exome sequencing. The primary data is shared via GEO and dbGaP at National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), National Institutes of Health (NIH).

• Caregiving as a Natural Stressor in Studies of the Role of Genes That Affect Serotonin Function in Regulating Risk Factors for Coronary Heart Disease (CAREGIVER)

  The burden of caregiving for an ill relative has been shown to interact with existing comorbidities to increase risk of several health outcomes including metabolic syndrome and blood pressure reactivity. The CAREGIVER study was developed to compare cardiometabolic risk factors in caregivers and controls. These risk factors include physiologic measures, psychologic measures, neighborhood characteristics, and genetic and genomic factors. DNA and plasma were collected and used for examination of cardiometabolic and stress biomarkers, genotyping and methylation analysis.
