• Somatic mutations, clonal architecture and genomic evolution in multiple myeloma

  Multiple myeloma is an incurable plasma cell malignancy whose molecular pathogenesis is incompletely understood. We used whole exome sequencing, copy number profiling and cytogenetic to analyses 84 samples from 67 patients with myeloma. In addition to known myeloma genes, we identify new candidate genes, including truncations of SP140, ROBO1 and FAT3 and clustered missense mutations in EGR1. We find oncogenic mutations in cancer genes not previously implicated in myeloma, including SF3B1, PI3KCA and PTEN. We define diverse processes contributing to the mutational repertoire, including kataegis and somatic hypermutation. Most cases have at least one cluster of subclonal variants, including subclonal driver mutations, implying on-going tumor evolution. Serial samples revealed diverse patterns of clonal evolution, including linear evolution, differential clonal response and branching evolution. Our findings reveal the myeloma genome to be heterogeneous across patients and, within individual patients, to exhibit diversity in clonal admixture and dynamics in response to therapy.

• Clinical and Genetic Analysis of Costa Rican Patients with Parkinson's Disease

  This study is a pilot study designed to describe the clinical and genetic landscape of Parkinson's disease in Costa Rica. While most genetic studies have been conducted on Europeans, few have examined Parkinson's disease in Costa Ricans. 118 patients and 97 controls were recruited at the Movement Disorders Unit of the Department of Neurology, Hospital San Juan de Dios, Caja Costarricense de Seguro Social, Costa Rica. Familial Parkinson's disease genes were sequenced using Next-Generation Sequencing. We also measured and obtained different sociodemographic and clinical information.

• Deep Sequencing of 3 Cancer Cell Lines on 2 Sequencing Platforms (Illumina HiSeqX and NovaSeq)

  To test the performance of a new sequencing platform, develop an updated somatic calling pipeline and establish a reference for future benchmarking experiments, we performed whole-genome sequencing of 3 common cancer cell lines (COLO-829, HCC-1143 and HCC-1187) along with their matched normal cell lines to great sequencing depths (up to 278X coverage) on both Illumina HiSeqX and NovaSeq sequencing instruments. This dataset can be used for benchmarking purposes by the genomic community and as a reference call set for scientists using these 3 cell lines.

• Molecular Genetics of Heterotaxy and Related Congenital Heart Defects

  Heterotaxy syndrome is a congenital anomaly syndrome accompanied by thoracic and abdominal situs abnormalities. The study cohort comprises of individuals with heterotaxy or related congenital heart disease (CHD) who have undergone exome sequencing. The purpose of the study is to elucidate the molecular genetics of the disorder as well as contribute to knowledge about the biology of normal and abnormal development of left-right anatomic asymmetry. These results will further help delineate genotype-phenotype associations and provide important information on the causes, management, and prognosis of heterotaxy syndrome.

• Genetic and Environmental Risk Factors for Hemorrhagic Stroke (GERFHS)

  GERFHS is a population-based, case-control study of hemorrhagic stroke in the Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky region. Cases are recruited from within 50 miles of the University of Cincinnati and population-based controls are matched to cases by age (+/- 5 years), race and gender from the same population as cases. All study participants are of self-reported non-Hispanic Caucasian ethnicity and the data show consistency with the principal component projections. The current submission includes genome wide genotyping on a subset of these cases and controls.

• A Prospective Study of Lifestyle, the Gut Microbiome, and Diverticulitis

  By leveraging a large-scale collection of stool specimens (Micro-N) within the Nurses' Health Study II, we performed shotgun metagenomic sequencing and untargeted metabolomics profiling among 121 case women with a diagnosis of diverticulitis requiring antibiotics or hospitalization, with each matched to a control woman without diverticulitis during the same time period accounting for age, race, and month of stool collection (total N=242). We found microbiome and metabolomic profiles differed in diverticulitis cases compared to controls. Data deposited include metagenomic sequencing data (after removing the human sequences) and metabolomics data.

• Processed Chromium Single Cell GEX, CSP and VDJ data from intestinal plasma cells of untreated celiac disease patients

  The dataset contains processed sequencing data from Chromium Single Cell 5’ gene expression, human B cell VDJ and feature barcode (CSP) sequencing from transglutaminase 2-specific and other small intestinal plasma cells isolated from four untreated celiac disease patients. The raw sequencing data has been processed with Cell Ranger v.6.0.2 with the multi and aggr functions using the pre-built Cell Ranger references GRCh38 version 2020-A for gene expression and GRCh38-alts-ensembl-5.0.0 for V(D)J analysis. The dataset consists of a gene expression and antibody capture expression matrix (cell barcodes and feature names in tsv.gz file, expression matrix in mtx.gz file) and VDJ sequences in AIRR format (csv file). A metadata file (csv file) details cells passing our custom quality control based on number of detected genes, UMIs, mitochondrial genes, immunoglobulin genes and a productively rearranged immunoglobulin heavy chain of the IgA isotype.

• Encompassing view of spatial and single-cell RNA-seq renews the role of the microvasculature in human atherosclerosis

  Atherosclerosis is a pervasive contributor to ischemic heart disease and stroke. Despite the advance of lipid lowering-therapies and antihypertensive agents, the residual risk of an atherosclerotic event remains high and developing therapeutic strategies has proven challenging. This is due to the complexity of atherosclerosis with a spatial interplay of multiple cell types within the vascular wall. Here we generate an integrative high-resolution map of human atherosclerotic plaques combining single-cell RNA-seq from multiple studies and spatial transcriptomics data from 12 human specimens, with different stages of atherosclerosis. We show cell-type and atherosclerosis-specific expression changes and spatially constrained alterations in cell-cell communication. We highlight the possible recruitment of lymphocytes via ACKR1 endothelial cells of the vasa vasorum, the migration of vascular smooth muscle cells towards the lumen by transforming into fibromyocytes, and cell-cell communication in the plaque region, indicating an intricate cellular interplay within the adventitia and the subendothelial space in human atherosclerosis.

• Molecular counting enables accurate and precise quantification of methylated ctDNA for tumor-naive cancer therapy response monitoring

  Personalized cancer treatment can significantly extend survival and improve quality of life for many patients, but accurate and real-time therapy response monitoring remains challenging. To overcome logistical and technical challenges associated with therapy response monitoring via imaging scans or assays that track the variant allele fraction (VAF) of somatic mutations in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), we developed a tumor-naive liquid biopsy assay that leverages Quantitative Counting Template (QCT) technology to accurately and precisely quantify methylated ctDNA (Northstar ResponseTM).

• Aerobiology, Immunology, and Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Transmission

  We submit data from the TB Aerobiology, Immunology and Transmission (TBAIT) study examining clinical and transcriptomic characteristics associated with Tuberculosis cough aerosolization. From a prospective longitudinal cohort of 142 participants with previously untreated pulmonary Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection, we assessed presence of culturable Mtb aerosols using a cough aerosol sampling system (CASS), as well as other clinical, microbiologic, and immunologic characteristics. We performed whole blood transcriptional profiling (submitted here) on a convenience subset of 29 cough aerosol culture (CAC) positive participants and 29 CAC negative participants, using Illumina NextSeq RNA Sequencing (RNA-Seq).
