• Whole Exome Sequencing in Multiple Myeloma

  By whole exome sequencing (WES) our group observed the accumulation of mutations in receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), adhesion molecules and their effectors and developed a signaling network that was affected by at least one mutation in almost 100% of MM patients and by more than one mutation in around 50% of MM patients which we decided to call inter- and intra-individual pathway redundancy. Interestingly, the extension of our WES dataset to 67 primary MM samples with correspond normal tissue which were collected at the Medizinische Klinik and Poliklinik II in Würzburg within the frame of the CRU216 has tentatively led to the designation of three molecular subgroups based on their mutation profile: "adhesion only", "adhesion & downstream" and "RTK & adhesion & downstream

• H3Africa - Respiratory Microbiota of African Children

  Shotgun metagenomic sequencing of nasopharyngeal (NP) samples, from children enrolled in a PCV13-vaccinated South African birth cohort was used to explore strain-level pneumococcal colonization patterns and transmission dynamics, and associated antimicrobial-resistance determinants. NP swabs were collected at two-week intervals from birth through the first year of life from 137 infants. Pneumococcal isolates were serotyped and tested for phenotypic antimicrobial resistance. 196 NP samples from a subset of 23 infants were then selected based on changes in serotype or antimicrobial resistance. DNA was extracted directly from the enriched NP samples and shotgun metagenomic sequencing performed. Reads were assembled and aligned against reference pneumococcal genomes. in silico pneumococcal capsular, multilocus sequence typing, and resistome analyses were performed.

• Whole transcriptome RNA sequencing on bone marrow and peripheral blood samples from patients with acute myeloid leukemia at diagnosis or relapse.

  One hundred cryopreserved bone marrow and peripheral blood samples from patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with 10-90% blasts were selected from the biobank of the Department of Hematology of Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC). The AML cases cover all subtypes, and specifically include known subtype-defining balanced chromosomal translocations according to the WHO classification. The samples were obtained from 96 patients and include three pairs of de novo and relapsed AML and one pair of de novo and presumed therapy-related AML (tAML). Total RNA was isolated from mononuclear cells without prior enrichment for leukemic blasts. The quality and integrity of total RNA was checked and RNA libraries were prepared using the TruSeq RNA library preparation kit v2 (Illumina, San Diego, CA) in an ISO/IEC 17025-accredited protocol. This workflow started with enrichment of messenger RNA by oligo dT magnetic beads. After fragmentation, cDNA synthesis was performed, followed by adaptor ligation and PCR amplification. Paired-end sequencing with a read length of 126 bp was performed on an Illumina HiSeq 2500 v4 sequencer to at least 12.5 Gbp per sample. Image analysis, base calling, and quality check was performed with Illumina data analysis pipeline RTA v1.18.64 and Bcl2fastq v1.8.4. RNAseq reads are provided in compressed Sanger FASTQ format.

• WGS_of_healhy_mesothelial_cells_and_primary_mesothelima_cell_lines

  Mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive cancer associated with previous exposure to asbestos. Currently there are no effective treatments for mesothelioma and majority of patients will die within a year after diagnosis. Although a large number of preclinical and clinical trials assessed the efficacy of various therapuetic modes, none of the tested molecules entered the clinic. Thus, to better understand what drives mesothelioma carcinogenesis and to identify novel targets for therapy, here we aim at performing WGS of heathy mesothelial cells and a panel of mesothelioma cells lines. Primary mesothelial cell lines were established in prof. Marciniak lab from human pleural specimens, while primary mesothelioma cell lines were obtained from MesobanK. Both models constitute low passage cell lines and therefore should closely represent genetics of the original tissue.

• GM adipose tissue study

  The Greek Metabolic (GM) adipose study was carried out in 106 individuals living in Greece and consists of genotyping data (chip), RNA-Seq and ATAC-Seq (for a subset of individuals) data from paired biopsies of Subcutaneous and Visceral adipose tissue. eQTL mapping was performed to study gene regulation and findings compared to those from adipose tissue GTEX data. The focus of this project was to study an underexplored population living in different environmental conditions in order to reveal novel regulatory effects for genes that shape complex traits and disease risk. Our results highlight the utility of modest-sized studies in adding to our understanding of the molecular basis of complex traits and to the identification of mechanisms that drive disease in specific tissues.

• Assessing the suitability of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue for genome-wide association studies (GWAS)

  This study evaluates the feasibility of conducting genome-wide association studies (GWAS) using DNA extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue. Genotyping results from paired FFPE and blood samples were compared using both microarray technology and low-coverage whole-genome sequencing (lcWGS). The analysis demonstrated high concordance between FFPE- and blood-derived genotypes. Although both platforms performed well, microarrays achieved significantly higher recall and precision and currently offer greater cost-effectiveness and computational efficiency. These findings support the suitability of FFPE-derived DNA for GWAS, with microarrays representing the preferred approach at present. However, the broader variant detection enabled by lcWGS may represent an additional advantage to be explored in future studies, particularly in diverse populations.

• Exome sequencing of UK Birth Cohorts - Millennium Cohort Study

  Birth cohort studies involve repeated surveys of large numbers of individuals from birth and throughout their lives. They collect information useful for a wide range of life course research domains, and biological samples which can be used to derive data from an increasing collection of omic technologies. This rich source of longitudinal data, when combined with genomic data, offers the scientific community valuable insights from population genetics to rare disease associations. Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC)recruited 14,775 babies of predominantly White ethnicity in the Avon county of south-west England between 1991 and 1992. Born in Bradford (BiB) is similarly focused on a particular local area, the city of Bradford in the north of England, and recruited 13,858 babies between 2007 and 2011, of whom ~41% self-report as white British and ~59% as other ethnicities, predominantly Pakistani. Millennium Cohort Study (MCS) is a national cohort that recruited 18,827 children born between 2000 and 2002, intentionally over-sampling areas with high child poverty, large ethnic minority populations, and smaller UK nations (Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland) Available here is a subset of exome-sequenced parents and children from these studies (CRAMS and post-QC VCFs) as detailed in https://doi.org/10.12688/wellcomeopenres.22697 [doi.org]. Phenotypic data is also available by submitting an application to the corresponding cohort: https://cls.ucl.ac.uk/cls-studies/millennium-cohort-study/ [cls.ucl.ac.uk]
