• Fetal hemoglobin in sickle cell disease patients from Tanzania

  Levels of fetal hemoglobin have been associated with differences in severity and outcome of sickle cell disease (SCD). While some genetic associations have been reported between SNPs and HbF level, little of the variance in the trait is explained, and most studies have focused on African American, rather than African samples. We have carried out a GWAS in a collection of SCD patients from Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. This sample represents a diverse, metropolitan collection of individuals from East Africa. Omni 2.5M genotypes and HbF levels (measured after 5 years of age) are available.

• Breast Cancer - Subtype defined by an amplification of the HER2 gene

  Clinically positive HER2 (cHER2+) breast cancers (BC) are defined by the amplification and overexpression of the human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2/ERBB2) gene on chromosome region 17q12 and represent 15% of all BCs. Although anti-HER2 targeted therapies have improved BC’s natural history, the magnitude of their benefit varies widely between patients and deciphering the genomic heterogeneity of cHER2+ BC may provide a basis to better understand patients’ outcome. As part of the ICGC Breast Cancer Working Group effort, we combined whole genome sequencing and transcriptomic analyses of 64 cHER2+ primary invasive carcinomas.

• Whole Genome Sequencing of 317 individuals from the Pacific region

  Although genetic studies of modern Oceanians have revealed varying levels of admixture with populations of East Asian ancestry, attributed to the Austronesian expansion, the early peopling history of Oceania remains poorly characterized. Additionally, it is currently unknown whether and how the settlement of the Pacific was accompanied by genetic adaptation to island environments, and if archaic introgression facilitated this process in Oceanians, who present the highest worldwide levels of combined Neanderthal and Denisovan ancestry. This study reports the first whole genome-based survey that addresses a wide range of questions related to the demographic and adaptive history of Pacific populations.

• Single-cell DNA sequencing on Pediatric MDS

  Single-cell DNA sequencing with antibody-oligonucleotide staining was performed using the Mission Bio Tapestri single-cell DNA sequencing platform, per the manufacturer’s instructions. All libraries were sized and quantified using an Agilent Bioanalyzer and pooled for sequencing on an Illumina NovaSeq6000 with 150 base-paired ending multiplexed runs. Fastq files generated by the sequencers were processed using the Tapestri Pipeline V2 and included adapter trimming, sequence alignment (BWA), barcode correction, cell finding, and variant calling (GATK v4/Haplotypecaller). FastQ files are provided for the 5 samples that were processed using the aforementioned pipeline.

• Multiple Tissue Monitoring in Huntington disease - RNAseq skeletal muscle

  We examined whether peripheral tissues can serve as a source of readily accessible biological signatures at the RNA and protein level in Huntington disease (HD) patients. Under the MTM-HD study we generated large, high-quality human datasets from skeletal muscle, skin and adipose tissue, as well as primary human fibroblast lines to probe molecular changes in human pre-manifest and early manifest HD patients. We document the involvement of inflammation, energy metabolism and extracellular vesicle homeostasis. This demonstrates the potential to identify biological signatures from peripheral tissues in HD suitable as biomarkers in clinical trials.

• NOTCH-mutations drive immune-escape mechanisms in B cell malignancies

  Here we provide access to MCL expression data that were used for interrogating the molecular functions of NOTCH1 and NOTCH2, which are two of the most commonly mutated genes in CLL and MCL and associated with a poor clinical outcome. The mechanisms underlying how NOTCH1 contributes to disease progression, resistance to treatment and Richter’s transformation remain largely unknown. The main goal of this study is to compare the gene expression profile of primary MCL cells transduced with the intracellular part of NOTCH1 or NOTCH2 lacking of the PEST domain vs cells transduced with an empty vector.

• Single-cell proteogenomics of MDS upon AZA

  To study the evolution of the clonal molecular and cellular architecture of MDS upon the treatment with AZA, we performed scDNA-seq of an amplicon panel of 53 genes recurrently mutated in myeloid malignancies, as well as typically lost or gain DNA regions, and scProt-seq of 42 cell-surface proteins to provide a simultaneous landscape of the genetic setting and immunophenotype using the Tapestri platform (MissionBio). We sequenced thousands of cells from 14 MDS patients, where paired bone marrow samples were obtained at the timepoint of diagnosis and after AZA treatment.

• Multi-omic data of subjects of FUSION study

  Finland-United States Investigation of NIDDM Genetics (FUSION) Study has sought to understand the genetic basis of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and diabetes-related traits including glucose, insulin, lipid levels, and obesity. We have performed extensive multi-omic characterization of the study subjects, including SNP array genotyping, whole genome/exome DNA sequencing of blood/tissue/iPSC cells generated from fibroblast, as well as RNAs. The study has provided crucial data for understanding molecular and cellular mechanisms of the disease-causing variants and their respective target genes. This set of data will be a valuable resource to the T2D community.
