• INfluenza Vaccine to Effectively Stop Cardio Thoracic Events and Decompensated Heart Failure (INVESTED)

  INVESTED was planned as a large, adequately powered, multicenter trial to assess the cardiopulmonary benefit of high- compared with standard-dose influenza vaccine in a high-risk cardiovascular population. In contrast to more complex interventions in patients with cardiac disease, the major potential benefits of this intervention are a) the ease of administration, b) low cost, c) 100% vaccination adherence and d) well established and extremely low risk. This trial, if positive, has the potential to substantially impact a major population attributable CV risk, change practice, and inform health policy by boosting utilization of influenza vaccination.

• M116 scRNA-seq

  scRNA-seq was performed using Chromium Next GEM Single Cell 3’ Kit v3.1 (10X Genomics) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, M116's PBMCs were thawed and quantified in order to calculate the number of cells to be loaded. Then, barcoded Single Cell 3ʹ Gel Beads, a master mix containing PBMCs, and Partitioning Oil were combined onto the Chromium Next GEM Chip G to generate Gel Beads-In-Emulsion (GEMs), where polyadenylated mRNAs were reverse transcribed. This way, all generated cDNAs from the same cell shared a common 10X Barcode. Following the reverse transcription, GEMs were broken and cDNAs were amplified and cleaned up with SPRIselect beads (Beckman Coulter®). Next, a portion of these cDNAs were enzymatically fragmented and subjected to adaptor ligation before using them as a PCR template for the incorporation of i5/i7 indexes. Finally, libraries were purified with SPRIselect beads, quantified and quality checked by using the 2200 TapeStation (Agilent®), and subjected to paired-end 150-bp sequencing (Novaseq systems, Illumina®) following standard practices at external facilities (Novogene®). Files types included in this dataset are raw Fastq files.

• Single-nuclei histone modification profiling of the adult human central nervous system unveils epigenetic memory of developmental programs

  We profile the adult human CNS from distinct regions, sex and ages, for chromatin accessibility at the single-nuclei level. Tissue was collected from 20 different donors (10 male, 10 female) within the ages of 34 to 74 years old. Additionally we performed Single-cell nanoCUT&Tag H3K27ac and H3K27me3 profiling for 4 of the donors and multiome single cell assay (RNA-seq+ATAC-seq) for 2 of the donors. Each donor donated fresh frozen white matter from the following three tissue regions: primary motor cortex (Brodmann area 4, BA4), arbor vitae cerebelli (CB) and fasciculi cuneatus and gracilis from and cervical spinal cord (CSC). Tissue was processed semi-randomly, ensuring that each batch of experiments had a representation of both sexes and all three tissue regions. Completed libraries were again randomly multiplexed during sequencing to minimize batch effects. We also performed micro-C,2 replicates, of iPS human derived cell cultures of human oligodendrocyte precursor cells (hOPC).

• WES analysis of paired tumor and non-tumoral DNA of 4 patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer

  We performed WES of tumor DNA and non-tumoral DNA (extracted from PBMC) of 4 patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, who after the tumor resection went on to receive BCG treatment as they had high-risk disease. In order to identify tumor-specific mutations that could give rise to patient-specific neo-epitopes, we performed paired WES of tumor and non-tumoral DNA for each patient. For patient UC2, 3 different tumors were resected at the same time and DNA from these 3 tumors were sent separately for WES.

• RNA expression profiling of neuromuscular diseases and viral diseases

  MicroRNAs (miRNAs), particularly those found in human body fluids, have been suggested as potential biomarkers. Among various body fluids, the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shows promise as a profiling target for diagnosis and monitoring of neurological diseases. However, relevant genome-scale studies are limited and no studies have profiled exosomal miRNAs in CSF. Therefore, we conducted a next-generation sequencing-based survey of small RNAs in the exosomal and non-exosomal (supernatant) fractions of healthy human CSF as well as serum in each donor. Our data provided the first landscape of small RNAs in CSF exosome.

• Adult B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia RoCK and ROI single-cell transcriptome

  Whohle Transcriptome sequencing was performed following the manufactures protocol from BD Rhapsody. Capture of BCR::ABL1 was performed using RoCK and ROI. RoCK and ROI is based on barcoded beads of the BD Rhapsody platform. For RoCKseq specific capture, TSO oligos on BD Rhapsody beads are modified with a/ multiple capture sequence(s) specific to transcripts of interest. ROIseq, on the other hand, is based on specific primers which are spiked in during library generation, directing reads to regions of interest (ROIs). Multiple scRNAseq experiments were performed on several biological samples to validate RoCK and ROI.

• Whole genome and whole transcriptome sequencing of patients diagnosed with angiosarcoma.

  Angiosarcomas are rare, clinically-aggressive tumors with a predilection for the elderly and immunosuppressed, which has incited suspicion of an oncogenic virus. We studied the metagenomic landscape of angiosarcomas and identified reads mapping to human herpesvirus-7 (HHV-7). Overall, HHV-7 was present in two-thirds of angiosarcomas, particularly in cases with low tumor mutation burden and lacking signatures of ultraviolet-induced DNA damage. Transcriptomic profiling revealed the enrichment of tumor inflammation signatures in HHV7-positive angiosarcomas. In conclusion, we identified a distinct “inflammatory” subtype of angiosarcoma associated with HHV-7.

• Identification of hypermutation and defective mismatch repair in ctDNA from metastatic prostate cancer

  DNA mismatch repair defects (MMRd) and tumor hypermutation are rare and under-characterized in metastatic prostate cancer. Furthermore, since hypermutated MMRd prostate cancers can respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors, there is an urgent need for practical detection tools. We analyzed cell-free DNA targeted sequencing data from 434 metastatic prostate cancer patients with circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) purity above 2%. Samples with somatic hypermutation were subjected to 150x whole exome sequencing. These data allowed us to interrogate the salient genomic properties of this rare prostate cancer subtype and correlate findings with patient clinical outcomes.

• Patterns of transcription factor programs and immune pathway activation define four major subtypes of SCLC with distinct therapeutic vulnerabilities

  Despite molecular and clinical heterogeneity, small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is treated as a single entity with predictably poor results. Using tumor expression data, we applied non-negative matrix factorization, which identified four SCLC subtypes defined largely by differential expression of transcription factors ASCL1, NEUROD1, and POU2F3 or low expression of all three transcription factor signatures accompanied by an Inflamed signature (SCLC-A, N, P and I, respectively). The presence of these subtypes were then validated in tumor gene expression data from the IMpower133 clinical trial.

• scRNA-seq of patient-derived PDAC organoids and matched CAFs

  We established direct three-dimensional (3D) co-cultures of primary PDAC organoids and patient-matched CAFs. Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed for three organoid/CAF pairs in mono- and co-culture to uncover transcriptional changes induced by tumor-stroma interaction. Single-cell RNA sequencing data evidenced induction of a pro-inflammatory phenotype in CAFs in co-cultures. Organoids showed increased expression of genes associated with epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in co-cultures and several potential receptor-ligand interactions related to EMT were identified, supporting a key role of CAF-driven induction of EMT in PDAC chemoresistance.

• Tobacco exposure and somatic mutations in normal human bronchial epithelium

  That tobacco smoking causes lung cancer is well-established, but we lack quantitative understanding of its effects on genomes of normal bronchial epithelium. We sequenced whole genomes of 632 colonies derived from single bronchial epithelial cells across 16 subjects. Tobacco smoking is the major influence on mutation burden, adding 1000-10,000+ mutations/cell, massively increasing both between-subject and within-subject variance, and generating several distinct signatures of substitutions and indels. A population of cells in subjects with smoking history had mutation burdens equivalent to that expected for never-smokers: these cells lacked tobacco-specific mutational signatures, were four-fold more frequent in ex-smokers than current smokers, and had significantly longer telomeres than their more mutated counterparts. Driver mutations increased in frequency with age, affecting 4-14% of cells in middle-aged never-smokers. In current smokers, ≥25% of cells carried driver mutations and 0-6% cells had 2 or even 3 drivers. Thus, tobacco smoking increases mutation burden, cell-to-cell heterogeneity and driver mutations, but quitting promotes replenishment of bronchial epithelium from mitotically quiescent cells that have avoided tobacco mutagenesis.

• 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.

• Glioblastoma stem cell lines RNA-seq (Guilhamon et al.)

  RNA was extracted from GSCs using the Qiagen RNeasy Plus kit. RNA sample quality was measured by Qubit (Life Technologies) for concentration and by Agilent Bioanalyzer for RNA integrity. All samples had RIN above 9. Libraries were prepared using the TruSeq Stranded mRNA kit (Illumina). Two hundred nanograms from each sample were purified for polyA tail containing mRNA molecules using poly-T oligo attached magnetic beads, then fragmented post-purification. The cleaved RNA fragments were copied into first strand cDNA using reverse transcriptase and random primers. This is followed by second strand cDNA synthesis using RNase H and DNA Polymerase I. A single “A” base was added and adapter ligated followed by purification and enrichment with PCR to create cDNA libraries. Final cDNA libraries were verified by the Agilent Bioanalyzer for size and concentration quantified by qPCR. All libraries were pooled to a final concentration of 1.8nM, clustered and sequenced on the Illumina NextSeq500 as a pair-end 75 cycle sequencing run using v2 reagents to achieve a minimum of ~40 million reads per sample.

• Myeloid cell programming in patients with non-medullary thyroid carcinoma

  This dataset contains single-cell RNA sequencing data from patients with thyroid cancer (n=7), multinodal Goiter (n=3) and healthy individuals (n=5). Mononuclear cells were taken from both the peripheral blood and the bone marrow compartments. We used a pooled single-cell design where multiple individuals were pooled in a single sample for sequencing (NextSeq 500-V2) and later demultiplexed using their genotype data. Associated metadata contains information on the phenotypes per individual, the pooling design and the linkage between the supplied files and sequenced pools. Due to limitations from EGA in uploading single-cell data, the raw fastq files were processed as follows: (i) I1/I2/R1/R2 fast files were concatenated over the different lanes. (ii) Concatenated I1 and I2 files were interleaved, as were the concatenated R1 and R2 files to generate two fastq files per pool containing all the information. To interleave the fastq files, the BBmap tool bbmap/reformat.sh was used, which can also be used to de-interleave the files.

• Genomic evolution and natural history of myeloproliferative neoplasms on therapy - MPN_bulk

  Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms are chronic blood neoplasms. Treatments control blood counts but disease can progress to myelofibrosis or acute myeloid leukaemia. We performed longitudinal whole-genome and targeted sequencing in 30 patients, integrating clonal dynamics with 7,986 blood counts and clinical histories. Distinct evolutionary patterns distinguished stable from progressive disease, with leukaemic transformation arising via TP53 loss, stepwise driver mutation acquisition within complex clones, or emergence of independent leukaemic clones. In contrast, stable disease showed long-term clonal equilibrium without new drivers. Phylogenetic analysis using 203 whole-genomes of haematopoietic colonies revealed age-appropriate polyclonal haematopoiesis in triple-negative essential thrombocythaemia and germline predisposition to thrombocytosis, supporting non-neoplastic origins. Therapy-associated mutagenesis was observed, including C>G mutations following azacitidine and characteristic T>A/T>G after hydroxycarbamide exposure in blood cells, although not in skin where UV damage predominated. These findings demonstrate progression is genomically encoded years in advance and support serial monitoring and further study of treatment-related mutagenesis.

• RAG mediated recombination is the predominant driver of oncogenic rearrangement in ETV6-RUNX1 Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (Rearrangement_sequencing_data)

  The ETV6-RUNX1 fusion gene, found in 25% of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), is acquired in utero but requires additional somatic mutations for overt leukemia. We used exome and low-coverage whole-genome sequencing to characterize the critical secondary events associated with leukemic transformation. RAG-mediated deletions emerge as the dominant mutational process, accounting for at least 43% of genomic rearrangements and characterized by the presence of recombination signal sequence motifs near the breakpoints; incorporation of non-templated sequence at the junction and a ten-fold enrichment at promoters and enhancers of genes actively transcribed in early B-lineage development. Single-cell tracking shows that this mechanism is not restricted to one founder cell but is rather active throughout leukemic evolution. Integration of point mutation and rearrangement data identifies recurrent inactivation of ATF7IP and MGA as two new tumor suppressor genes.Thus, a remarkably parsimonious mutational process transforms ETV6-RUNX1 lymphoblasts, striking promoters and enhancers of the genes that normally control B-cell differentiation.

• Sequencing component for the whole genome methylation analysis in PBMCs and cell subsets (pilot study)

  DNA methylation has been shown to play a major role in determining cellular phenotype by regulating gene expression. Moreover, dysregulation of differentially methylated genes has been implicated in disease pathogenesis of various conditions including cancer development as well as autoimmune diseases such as systemic Lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis. Evidence is rapidly accumulating for a role of DNA methylation in regulating immune responses in health and disease. However, the exact mechanisms remain unknown. The overall aim of the project is to investigate the role of epigenetic mechanisms in regulating immunity and their impact on autoimmune disease pathogenesis.The aim of this pilot study is to perform whole genome methylation analysis in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and cell subsets (CD4, CD8, CD14, CD19, CD16 and whole PBMCs) obtained from 6 healthy volunteers. Whole genome methylation analysis will be performed using two methodological approaches, the Infinium Methylation Bead Array K450 (Illumina) and MeDIP-seq. mRNA expression arrays will also be performed in order to correlate DNA methylation with gene expression as well as genotyping on the Illumina OmniExpress chip

• Chromatin accessibility maps of chronic lymphocytic leukemia identify subtype-specific epigenome signatures and transcription regulatory networks

  Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is characterized by substantial clinical heterogeneity, despite relatively few genetic alterations. To provide a basis for studying epigenome deregulation in CLL, we established genome-wide chromatin accessibility maps for 88 CLL samples from 55 patients using the ATAC-seq assay, and we also performed ChIPmentation and RNA-seq profiling for ten representative samples. Based on the resulting dataset, we devised and applied a bioinformatic method that links chromatin profiles to clinical annotations. Our analysis identified sample-specific variation on top of a shared core of CLL regulatory regions. IGHV mutation status – which distinguishes the two major subtypes of CLL – was accurately predicted by the chromatin profiles, and gene regulatory networks inferred for IGHV-mutated vs. IGHV-unmutated samples identified characteristic differences between these two disease subtypes. In summary, we discovered widespread heterogeneity in the chromatin landscape of CLL, established a community resource for studying epigenome deregulation in leukemia, and demonstrated the feasibility of chromatin accessibility mapping in cancer cohorts and clinical research.
