• Distinct embryonic phylogenies and driver events of infant Wilms tumor - DNA

  Cancers of adults typically arise through progressive rounds of clonal diversification and intratumoral selective sweeps which generate a long mutational trunk with shorter subclonal branches. Here, we investigated whether tumors of young children exhibit the same phylogenetic configuration. We studied three infants, including two newborns, with the childhood kidney cancer, Wilms tumour, through whole genome sequencing of bulk tissues, of single cell derived organoids, and of microdissections. All three cancers exhibited unusual driver events, with tumours of newborns harbouring FOXR2 rearrangements, delineating a distinct variant of Wilms tumour. Phylogenetic analyses suggest that tumors were seeded in an early, possibly confined window of development. Unusually, following seeding there was extensive polyclonal diversification with little evidence of clonal sweeps, leading to a distinct phylogenetic configuration more reminiscent of normal tissues rather than of adult cancers. These findings indicate that some childhood cancers may diversify via unorthodox phylogenetic pathways.

• Somatic mutations in facial skin from countries of contrasting skin cancer risk

  The incidence of non-melanoma skin cancer is 17-fold lower in Singapore compared to the UK1, despite Singapore receiving 2-3 times more year-round ultraviolet radiation (UV)2,3. The ageing epidermis of the skin comprises competing somatic mutant clones4,5, from which such cancers develop. We question if differences in keratinocyte skin cancer incidence are reflected in the mutational landscape by comparing ageing facial epidermis from donors of Singapore and the UK. We find UK skin to be a highly competitive, densely mutated landscape with 4-fold greater mutation burden compared to Singaporean skin and differences in clonal selection by country. We disproportionately observe multiple features common to keratinocyte skin cancers6,7,8 in UK skin, such as UV mutagenesis, copy number aberration and hotspot mutations (in particular TP53 R248W). We conclude that keratinocyte skin cancer incidence is reflected in the somatic clones of non-cancerous epidermis. Finally, we re-analyse squamous cell carcinoma exomes from Korea9 to show, even in low incidence populations, carcinogenesis is driven by UV damage.

• raw RNA-seq data from patients infected with COVID-19 or influenza

  Dataset consists of fastq files from bulk RNA-seq done on peripheral blood acquired from two well characterised hospitalised cohorts, a cohort of patients infected with influenza and a cohort of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 during the first wave of the pandemic and prior to availability of COVID-19 treatments and vaccines.

• Targetable NOTCH1 rearrangements in reninoma - WGS

  Reninomas are exceedingly rare renin-secreting kidney tumours that derive from juxtaglomerular cells, specialised smooth muscle cells that reside at the vascular inlet of glomeruli. They are the central component of the juxtaglomerular apparatus which controls systemic blood pressure through the secretion of renin. We assessed somatic changes in reninoma and found structural variants that generate canonical activating rearrangements of NOTCH1, whilst removing its negative regulator, NRARP. Accordingly, in single reninoma nuclei we observed excessive renin and NOTCH1 signalling mRNAs, with a concomitant non-excess of NRARP expression. Re-analysis of previously published reninoma bulk transcriptomes further corroborates our observation of dysregulated Notch pathway signalling in reninoma. Our findings reveal NOTCH1 rearrangements in reninoma, therapeutically targetable through existing NOTCH1 inhibitors, and indicate that unscheduled Notch signalling may be a disease-defining feature of reninoma.
