• Whole-exome sequencing profiling of patients with metastatic prostate cancer at VHIO

  Metastatic prostate cancer (mPC) is enriched for homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene alterations, which have prognostic and predictive value. Routine clinical implementation of next-generation sequencing (NGS) is still limited. We investigated the association between genomic and functional loss of HRR, using NGS and a RAD51 immunofluorescence (RAD51-IF) iprimary or metastatic biopsies from patients with stage IV prostate cancer. Whole-exome sequencing was pursued for paired tumor-normal samples.

• Comparison Across Multiple Types of Sleep Deprivation

  This study is designed to assess neurobehavioral performance, as well as molecular and physiological changes associated with variations in timing and quantity of sleep. Gene expression changes associated with neurobehavioral (cognitive) performance were assessed in a time-series among individuals randomly assigned to four separate sleep conditions during a 10-day inpatient study: a well-rested control, sleep restriction with nighttime sleep, sleep restriction with daytime sleep to roughly simulate shiftwork schedules, and total (acute) sleep deprivation.

• Genomic Profiling of an anti-PD-L1 treated cohort of Newly Diagnosed GBM patients

  Checkpoint inhibitor therapy has limited efficacy in the outcomes of patients with glioblastoma (GBM).

• Bulk RNAseq from in vitro generated macrophages and T cells, and mUM tumour biopsies

  Monocyte derived macrophages were polarised into M1 or M2 using IFNg+ ILP or IL-4 respectively (n =4) . Pan T cells were cultured with or without IL-2 for 4 days (n=4 - 6). Pan T cells were co-cultured with THP1 tumour cells for 20 hours in the presence or absence of ImmTAC molecules and in the presence or absence of M2 macrophages. Sorted T cells and macrophage populations prior and post co-culture were analysed by bulk RNA sequencing (60 million reads per sample) using the Illumina NovaSeq system. Tumour biopsies were obtained from uveal melanoma patients (n = 35) pre and 16 days post treatment with tebentafusp.

• An atlas of transcribed enhancers across helper T cell diversity for decoding human diseases

  At 5' ends of RNAs, there is a unique "cap signature" derived from a 7-methylguanosine cap. By leveraging this signature, we developed ReapTEC (read-level pre-filtering and transcribed enhancer call), a method for simultaneously profiling gene expression and enhancer activities using 5'-end single-cell RNA sequencing (5' scRNA-seq). We applied ReapTEC and single-nucleus ATAC-seq to a total of ~1 million single human CD4+ T cells.

• Multi-omics analysis reveals immune programs delineating disease severity in extrapulmonary tuberculosis

  This study investigates the immune response in extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) using single-cell RNA sequencing. Hierarchical clustering of patient transcriptomes identified three distinct levels of disease severity, uncovering immunological pathways involved in disease progression, including interferon and IL-1β-mediated signaling. The findings also led to the development of a diagnostic gene expression signature for both EPTB and pulmonary TB, offering potential improvements in TB diagnosis and treatment.

• Dataset for study Genome-wide gene expression analysis following CRISPRi of transposable elements

  Transposable elements (TEs), once regarded as parasitic genomic remnants, are now recognized as key regulators of gene expression and genome evolution, yet the functional specificity of individual TE subfamilies remains largely unexplored. This dataset investigates the transcriptional consequences of targeted repression of MER57E3 and LTR10B2 elements using CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) in human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). hiPSCs expressing CRISPRi machinery (n = 2 biological replicates) were transduced with guide RNAs targeting individual or grouped copies of MER57E3 and LTR10B2, as well as the ZNF678 promoter or a lacZ non-targeting control. Transduced cells were subsequently differentiated into neural progenitor cells (NPCs), and total RNA was extracted for mRNA library preparation and sequencing. The dataset comprises 24 single-end mRNA-seq FASTQ files generated from these NPCs and wild-type controls.

• Immune control of functional memory CD8 T cells in normal-appearing vitiligo skin

  This study aimed to characterize immune cell states in nonlesional (NL) and perilesional (PL) skin of patients with vitiligo using single-cell RNA sequencing. Shared CD8⁺ T cell clusters were detected in both regions, with PL-derived cells enriched for immune activation pathways and NL skin showed stronger infiltration of regulatory T cells. These findings reveal functional T cell heterogeneity in vitiligo and highlight regulatory mechanisms that may limit depigmentation in NL skin.

• Deciphering the aggressive nature of morphoeic basal cell carcinoma

  Morphoeic basal cell carcinoma (mBCC) has a high risk of local recurrence compared to the more indolent nodular subtype reflected by a different set of driver mutations including FLNB and HECTD4. Surrounding mBCC stroma is abnormal, containing mutations such as EPHA3. Hedgehog pathway over-expression is seen in both the tumour and stroma of morphoeic tissue with the latter potentially being partly responsible for its aggressive nature and risk of recurrence.

  The effects of DNASE1L3 or DNASE1 deficiency on cfDNA methylation was explored in plasma of mice deficient in these nucleases and in DNASE1L3-deficient humans. Compared to wildtype cfDNA, cfDNA in Dnase1l3-deficient mice was significantly hypomethylated, while cfDNA in Dnase1-deficient mice was hypermethylated. The cfDNA hypomethylation in Dnase1l3-deficient mice was due to increased fragmentation and representation from open chromatin regions (OCRs) and CpG islands (CGIs).
