• The_effects_of_chemotherapy_and_radiation_in_human_oesophageal_epithelium__low_input

  Human oesophagus is a patchwork of competing mutant clones. We wish to see how this patchwork is altered under the extreme selection pressures of chemotherapy and radiotherapy both individually and combined. We will sequence 0.25mm diameter punch biopsies from patients who have undergone chemotherapy and radiotherapy to assess how the mutational landscape has changed.

• The_effects_of_chemotherapy_and_radiation_in_human_oesophageal_epithelium

  Human oesophagus is a patchwork of competing mutant clones. We wish to see how this patchwork is altered under the extreme selection pressures of chemotherapy and radiotherapy both individually and combined. We will sequence 2mm2 contiguous pieces of oesophageal epithelium from patients who have undergone chemotherapy and radiotherapy to assess how the mutational landscape has changed.

• Liquid-based genomic profiling in high-risk localized prostate cancer.

  In this study, we evaluated the feasibility and performance of tissue and liquid-based genomic profiling in patients with high-risk localized prostate cancer. Genomic DNA from 12 FFPE tissue samples and cell-free DNA from 27 plasma samples were analyzed using Illumina TruSight Oncology (TSO) 500 panels.

• PBL whole exome and transcriptome data

  Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) represents a clinically heterogeneous subtype of aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Although targeted sequencing studies and a single center whole exome sequencing (WES) study in HIV+ patients recently revealed several genes, associated with PBL pathogenesis, the global mutational landscape and transcriptional profile of PBL remain elusive. To inform on disease-associated mutational drivers, mutational patterns and perturbed pathways in HIV+ and HIV- PBL we performed WES and RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) of 34 PBL tumors.

• Exome sequencing of 317 rainforest hunter-gatherers and neighbouring farmers from Central Africa

  Exome sequencing of 317 rainforest hunter-gatherers (RHG) and neighbouring farmers (AGR) from Central Africa was performed based on the Nextera Rapid Capture Expanded Exome Kit (62-Mb content) with the Illumina HiSeq 2500. The population sample includes the Baka of south-eastern Cameroon and northern Gabon (wRHG), the Bantu-speaking Nzebi and Bapunu sedentary agriculturalists of Gabon (wAGR), and the BaTwa (eRHG) and BaKiga (eAGR) from Uganda. After QC filters, exomes of 300 unrelated individuals were obtained at high coverage (mean depth 68x), including 406,270 variants.

• Sequence data for study: Mobilization of tissue-resident memory CD4+ T lymphocytes from bone marrow and their contribution to a systemic secondary immune reaction

  Short Description: This study contains 7 RRBS samples, including 3 ex vivo CD4+ Trm (2 x spleen and 1 x bone marrow) and 4 blood tetanus (TT) and measles (Me) antigen-reactive memory CD4+ cells before and one day post DTaP (diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis) and MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) vaccination, respectively (1 x tetanus D0, 1 x tetanus D1, 1 x measles D0, 1 x measles D1). Technology: Illumina HiSeq 2500 Filetype: fastq format

• Dataset for identification of the dismal subtype of B-ALL with dysregulation of CDX2 and UBTF

  WGS (tumor and germline samples) was performed to identify structural variants in the UBTF/CDX2 subgroup. RNA-seq was performed to detect gene fusion in the UBTF/CDX2 subgroup. HiChIP was performed to investigate 3D chromatin architecture and enhancer landscapes of representative patient samples and cell lines harboring Type I and II FLT3-PAN3 deletions and amplifications.

• Analysis of the Whole Transcriptomes of Human Testis with Complete Spermatogenesis and of Human Testes with Sertoli Cell-Only Syndrome

  Sertoli cell-only syndrome is severe form of human male infertility in which most seminiferous tubules appear to lack all spermatogenic cells, including spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs). However, a few small tubule segments of some patients have active spermatogenesis and, thus, functional stem cell niches and SSCs. Normally SSCs replicate, migrate and refill adjacent empty niches, but this does not appear to occur in SCO syndrome. We hypothesized that this failure occurs because most niches are dysfunctional. As Sertoli cells are essential to formation of these niches, we used RNAseq to compare the transcriptomes of human testes with qualitatively normal (complete) spermatogenesis (n=4) with the transcriptomes of human testes with SCO syndrome (n=7). We then focused our analysis on the expression of transcripts that bioinformatic analyses identified as Sertoli cell signature transcripts. Results show that Sertoli cells in SCO testes express abnormally low levels of GDNF, FGF8 and BMP4, all of which are important regulators of mouse SSCs and/or progenitor spermatogonia. Sertoli cells in SCO testes express significantly reduced levels of transcripts for proteins that polarize the Sertoli cell plasma membrane and regulate the trafficking of cell adhesion and gap junction proteins in and out of that plasma membrane.

• Search for Susceptibility Genes for Diabetic Nephropathy in Type 1 Diabetes (GoKinD study participants and parents), NIDDK

  Genetics of Kidneys in Diabetes (GoKinD) study is an initiative aimed at identifying susceptibility genes for diabetic nephropathy in type 1 diabetes. A large number of individuals with type 1 diabetes were screened to identify two subsets, one with clear-cut kidney disease and another with normal renal status despite long-term diabetes. Those who met additional entry criteria and consented to participate were enrolled. When possible, both parents were also enrolled to form family trios. Altogether, GoKinD includes 3043 participants comprising 931 cases, 944 singletons, 268 pairs of parents of cases, and 316 pairs of parents of control. Accessible as a GAIN database are 905 of the cases, 890 of the controls, 10 pairs of parents of cases and 10 pairs of parents of controls (dbGaP phs000018 Search for Susceptibility Genes for Diabetic Nephropathy in Type 1 Diabetes (GoKinD study participants), GAIN). The other parents and the remaining cases and controls are available by a separate application process through NIDDK. Interested investigators may request the DNA collection and corresponding clinical data for GoKinD participants using the instructions and application form available at http://www.niddkrepository.org or by contacting the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

• Whole Genome Association Study of Visceral Adiposity in the Health Aging and Body Composition (Health ABC) Study

  The Health Aging and Body Composition (Health ABC) Study is a NIA-sponsored cohort study of the factors that contribute to incident disability and the decline in function of healthier older persons, with a particular emphasis on changes in body composition in old age. Between 4/15/97 and 6/5/98 the Health ABC study has recruited 3,075 70-79 year old community-dwelling adults (41% African-American), who were initially free of mobility and activities of daily living disability. The key components of Health ABC include a baseline exam, annual follow-up clinical exams, and phone contacts every 6 months to identify major health events and document functional status between clinic visits. The core yearly examination for HEALTH ABC includes measurement of body composition by dual energy x-ray absorptio-metry (DXA), walking ability, strength, an interview that includes self-report of limitations, and a medication survey, weight. At baseline, visceral adiposity was measured by computerized tomography (CT). Provision has been made for banking of blood specimens and extracted DNA (HealthABC repository). The overall goal of this project is to identify genetic determinants of visceral adiposity. Genetic samples from 2932 unrelated participants were evaluated with a genome-wide scan.
