• NHLBI TOPMed: The Genetic Epidemiology of Asthma in Costa Rica

  This administrative supplement to the project, "The Genetic Epidemiology of Asthma in Costa Rica" (R37 HL066289) is in response to NOT-HL-14-029 to perform whole genome sequencing (WGS) on existing NHLBI populations. We focus on asthma because of its public health significance. Asthma affects 26 million U.S. children and adults, remains a major cause of morbidity (one-half million hospitalizations a year) and is the most common cause of school and work days lost. Asthma-related costs are estimated to be over $12.7 billion annually. The Asthma Probands for both the extended pedigrees and the trios utilized in this study were selected on the basis of a physician diagnosis of asthma; a history of recurrent asthma attacks or at least 2 respiratory symptoms; and either airway hyperresponsiveness to methacholine or significant response to bronchodilator (Albuterol) administration. These criteria are identical to the criteria used in the Childhood Asthma Management Program (CAMP). The three primary goals of this project are to: (1) identify common and rare genetic variants that determine asthma and its associated phenotypes (height, weight, IgE level, lung function, bronchodilator response, steroid treatment response) through whole genome sequencing (WGS); (2) perform novel family based association analysis of our WGS data to identify novel genes for asthma; and (3) integrate epigenomic and transcriptomic data with our WGS data and determine the epistatic interactions present using systems genomics approaches. Identification of the molecular determinants of asthma remains an important priority in translational science. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been successful in this regard, identifying at least 10 novel susceptibility genes for asthma. However, as with most complex traits, the variants identified by GWAS explain only a fraction of the estimated heritability of this disorder. Herein, we propose a novel family-based study design and state-of-the-art genome sequencing techniques to map a set of sequence variants for asthma and its associated phenotypes and assess the interrelationships of the identified genes and variants using systems genomics methods. We have assembled a team of investigators highly-skilled and expert in whole genome sequencing (Drs. Michael Cho and Benjamin Raby), genetic association analysis (Drs. Scott T. Weiss, Jessica Lasky-Su and Christoph Lange), integrative genomics (Drs. Raby, Kelan Tantisira, Augusto Litonjua and Dawn DeMeo), and systems genomics (Drs. Weiss, Amitabh Sharma, Lange and Raby) to address this important problem with both a novel study design and data set.

• Virginia PrIMeD Study

  The goal of this study was to determine whether screening children (2-16 yrs) in pediatric waiting rooms for genetic risk of type 1 diabetes (T1D) could be applied to diverse (by geography, genetic ancestry) communities, and for those at "high genetic risk," if barriers prevent subsequent screening for presence of islet autoantibodies. A total of 3,818 children were recruited from eight general pediatric and specialty clinics across Virginia. Clinical Research Coordinators were stationed at each clinic and obtained informed consent/assent, a brief medical history, and a saliva sample for DNA extraction and determination of their genetic risk using a T1D Genetic Risk Score (T1D GRS). Children were present in the clinic for a "healthy" visit, although children with and without a history of T1D were recruited into the study. Age, sex, self-reported ancestry/race, T1D history, and other medical history information was obtained. DNA was extracted from the saliva samples and genotyping with a T1D-focused array using 74 SNPs (including 26 SNPs in the HLA region) provided data to generate a T1D GRS for each individual. Of the 3,818 children recruited, there was a slight excess of males (1,959, 51.3%), a majority of white and Hispanic/Latino ancestry (82.8%), and 91 (2.4%) with prevalent T1D. A total of 542 (14.2%) had "high T1D genetic risk" (T1D GRS > 5). Although the T1D GRS included non-HLA genetic variants, 80% of those with "high genetic risk" would have been classified using only those SNPs in the HLA region alone. Of children with "high genetic risk" and without pre-existing T1D (n=494), 7.0% (34/494) consented for islet autoantibody screening. Among children with pre-existing T1D (n=91), 52% (n=48) also had a "high genetic risk." The HLA-focused T1D GRS was not significantly associated with age at onset of T1D. Of those at high genetic risk that consented for autoantibody testing (n=34) and completed the blood collection (n=28), two (2/28, 7.1%) tested positive for multiple autoantibodies and were at significant risk of developing T1D. Follow up of 55% of parents/guardians identified 2 (of 2,096, 0.095%) participants who developed T1D, one at "high genetic risk" and one with a first-degree relative with T1D. A major factor in obtaining islet autoantibody testing was concern over SARS-Cov-2 exposure and an independent non-scheduled blood collection.Individual-level data at each SNP (genotyped and imputed) for T1D genetic risk and affiliated data are provided in dbGaP.

• Oncogene activated human breast luminal progenitors contribute basally located myoepithelial cells

  Basal-like breast cancer originates in luminal progenitors, frequently with an altered PI3K pathway, and focally in close association with genetically altered myoepithelial cells at the site of tumor initiation. The exact trajectory behind this bi-lineage phenomenon remains poorly understood. Here we used a breast cancer relevant transduction protocol including hTERT, shp16, shp53, and PIK3CA(H1047R) to immortalize FACS isolated luminal cells, and we identified a candidate multipotent progenitor. We found that the apparent luminal phenotype of these oncogene transduced progenitors was metastable giving rise to basal-like cells dependent on culture conditions.

• Aberrant expression of SLAMF6 constitutes a targetable immune escape mechanism in acute myeloid leukemia

  In this study, we demonstrate that aberrant expression of SLAMF6 on acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells serves as a novel immune escape mechanism that can be inhibited by antibodies against the SLAMF6 dimerization site. This constitutes a novel mechanism of checkpoint inhibition, which paves the way for immunotherapy in AML and other SLAMF6-expressing cancers. This study utilizes single cell sequencing data from the AML cell line HNT-34 co-cultured with normal T cells, with and without antibody targeting SLAMF6, as well as single cell data of 38 primary AML samples.

• Competitive selection of somatic mutant clones in normal human skin varies with body site

  The risk of getting non-melanoma skin cancer varies over 40-fold across the body. Here we map mutations in normal skin in high and low risk sites in normal donors and those with an increased risk of skin cancer. The density of mutations varied widely, with evidence of positive and negative genetic selection.  Regional differences in mutational signatures in high and low cancer risk sites and preferential selection of mutants of TP53 in high risk skin and FAT1 in lower risk skin were observed. 10% of clones had copy number changes in cancer associated genes and the largest had multiple driver mutations with loss of heterozygosity. In hair follicles, a proposed site of origin of skin cancers, mutations in the upper follicle resembled adjacent skin, but the lower follicle was sparsely mutated. We conclude cancer risk reflects the efficiency of transformation of oncogenic mutants rather than the density of mutant clones.

• Spatial and temporal intra-tumoural heterogeneity in advanced High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer: implications for surgical and clinical outcomes

  Limited evidence exists on the extent and impact of spatial and temporal heterogeneity of high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) on tumour evolution and patients surgical and clinical outcome. We investigated this through systematic mapping of multi-site tumours at initial presentation and matched relapse from 49 chemo-naïve HGSOC patients with high tumour load, operated upfront. Our data provides a unique insight into the tumour evolution and metastatic pathways of HGSOC across time and space, how this complexity relates to surgical and clinical outcome and its consequences on clinical decision-making.

• Whole-Genome Shotgun Metagenomic Analysis of Rectal Mucus for Colorectal Cancer Detection

  This study evaluates the use of rectal mucus as a minimally invasive biospecimen for colorectal cancer (CRC) detection through whole-genome shotgun metagenomic sequencing. 408 rectal mucus samples were collected from patients suspected to have colorectal cancer and sequenced. These samples were analyzed to characterize microbial community composition and its association with CRC stage and anatomical site. These data provide insights into tumor-proximal microbiome signatures and demonstrate the potential of rectal mucus sampling for early and accurate CRC diagnosis. This is 1 of 4 sequencing experiments on the same sample type.

• The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) Human Genetics Resource Center: DNA and Cell Line Repository (the NINDS Repository): Motor Neuron/Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Study

  The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) Human Genetics Resource Center: DNA and Cell Line Repository (the NINDS Repository), banks phenotypic data and biological samples, including from individuals with motor neuron disease, in order to facilitate gene discovery in neurological disorders. Those samples are used in a number of studies, and genotyping data from studies using this resource are encouraged to be shared via dbGaP. Many studies have already shared data in this fashion, which in turn, can be linked back to the biologicals banked at the NINDS Repository. Motor Neuron Disease is characterized by selective degeneration of the motor neurons of the spinal cord, brainstem, or motor cortex. Clinical subtypes are distinguished by the major site of degeneration. In Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), there is involvement of upper, lower, and brainstem motor neurons. In progressive muscular atrophy and related syndromes, the motor neurons in the spinal cord are primarily affected. With progressive bulbar palsy, the initial degeneration occurs in the brainstem. In primary lateral sclerosis, the cortical neurons are affected in isolation (Adams et al, Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p 1089). The Motor Neuron Disease Collection of DNA and cell lines in the NINDS Repository is largely Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis cases (others include progressive muscular atrophy, primary lateral sclerosis, progressive bulbar palsy, Kennedy's disease). Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common form of motor neuron disease (MND). Although ALS is the most common MND, it is still a relatively rare disease with an incidence of around 1.6 per 100,000 in the United States. It is currently incurable and treatment is largely limited to supportive care. Family history is associated with an increased risk of ALS, and many Mendelian causes have been discovered (including SOD1). However, most forms of the disease are not obviously familial. It is suspected that the sporadic forms of neurodegenerative disorders are caused by multiple genetic variants that individually make relatively weak contributions to risk. There is also an associated Control collection (see dbGaP and Coriell). Studies in motor Neuron Disease may use cases from the NINDS repository, controls from the NINDS repository, as well as cases, and controls, from other sources. A subset of subjects from The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) Human Genetics Resource Center: DNA and Cell Line Repository (the NINDS Repository): Motor Neuron/Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Study was utilized in the Genome-wide genotyping in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and neurologically normal controls: first stage analysis and public release of data study. Note: The publication Chio et al., 2009 states that "Raw sample-level genotype data from the initial GWAS study ... are available for download through the dbGAP portal (phs000006.v1.p1)".

• Studies of L1-mediated Pseudogene Formation in Human HeLa Cells

  Alu elements mobilize from one genomic location to another by a "copy-and-paste" mechanism known as retrotransposition, which requires the human Long INterspersed Element-1 (LINE-1 or L1) ORF2-encoded protein (ORF2p); however, little is known about other cellular factors required for Alu retrotransposition. Isolates of HeLa cells differ in their ability to support Alu retrotransposition. Here, we generated Illumina whole genome sequencing data derived from four HeLa isolates: HeLa-H1, HeLa-CCL2, HeLa-HA, and HeLa-JVM.

• RNAseq of MCL cell lines

  This study provides bulk RNA sequencing data from Mino and Jeko-1 mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cell lines treated with CDK9 inhibitors, including the novel compound YX0798. CDK9 is a key regulator of RNA polymerase II–mediated transcription, and its inhibition disrupts transcriptional programs critical for tumor survival. The dataset captures transcriptomic changes associated with CDK9 inhibition, including downregulation of oncogenic drivers such as MYC and MCL-1. These data support mechanistic studies of transcriptional reprogramming and therapeutic vulnerability in aggressive MCL.
