• WES of der(1;7)(q10;p10)

  This dataset contains the BAM files of WES of 26 myeloid neoplasm patients with der(1;7)(q10;p10)(+) cases. The dataset was used to identify key driver genes in patients with der(1;7)(q10;p10). Already known drivers along with novel driver genes were identified through the use of this WES.

• Identification of new molecular targets with profiling of malignant mesothelioma

  Aims: Malignant mesothelioma which is associated with asbestos exposure is highly aggressive and refractory to conventional therapeutic modalities. The aim of this study is identification of new targets for molecular target therapy by next generation sequencing and application of the genomic data to new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for malignant mesothelioma patients. Methods: We extracted genomic DNAs from surgical specimens or established mesothelioma cell lines from Japanese malignant mesothelioma patients. We also extracted control DNAs from peripheral blood of the same patients. We performed whole exome sequencing using these DNAs.

• Analysis of MPNST progression at single-cell resolution

  Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors (MPNST) are soft-tissue sarcomas with poor prognosis and a lack of treatment options. About half of them arise in people with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1). In this study, we set out to explore the malignant progression and tumor heterogeneity by exploring the different tumors along the MPNST progression at the single cell level. This work is part of the project "NF1-Associated Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors at Single-Cell Resolution: Heterogeneity, Tumor Growth, and Malignant Progression".

• Evolutionary analysis of pancreatic cancer and coexistent precursor lesions using whole exome sequencing data

  Most adult carcinomas develop from noninvasive precursor lesions, a progression that is supported by genetic analysis. Further, the evolution of these lesions contextualizes the dynamics of advanced stage disease. We analyzed the somatic variants of co-existing pancreatic cancers and precursor lesions sampled from distinct regions of the same pancreas. After inferring evolutionary relationships, we found that the ancestral cell had initiated and clonally expanded to form one or more lesions, and that subsequent driver gene mutations eventually led to a pancreatic cancer. We also found that this multi-step progression generally spans many years. Our data suggest that independent, high-grade pancreatic lesions observed in a histologic cross section often represent a single neoplasm that can spread and colonize the ductal system, accumulating spatial and genetic divergence over time.

• Malignant pheochromocytomas/paragangliomas harbor mutations in transport and cell adhesion genes

  One out of ten patients with pheochromocytoma (PCC) and paraganglioma (PGL) develop malignant disease. Today there are no reliable pathological methods to predict malignancy at the time of diagnosis. Tumors harboring mutations in the succinate dehydrogenase subunit B (SDHB) gene often metastasize but the sequential genetic events resulting in malignant progression are not fully understood. The aim of this study was to identify somatic mutations that contribute to the malignant transformation of PCC/PGL. We performed pair-wise (tumor-normal) whole-exome sequencing to analyze the somatic mutational landscape in five malignant and four benign primary PCC/sympathetic PGL (sPGL), including two biological replicates from each specimen. In total, 225 unique somatic mutations were identified in 215 genes, with an average mutation rate of 0.54 mutations/megabase. Malignant tumors had a significantly higher number of mutations compared to benign tumors (p<0.001). Three novel genes were identified as recurrently mutated; MYCN, MYO5B and VCL, and mutations in these genes were exclusively found in malignant sPGL tumors. Mutations in the MYO5B gene could be verified in two publicly available data sets. A gene ontology analysis of mutated genes showed enrichment of cellular functions related to cytoskeletal protein binding, myosin complex, and motor activity, many of which had functions in Rab and Rac/Rho GTPase pathways. Conclusively, we have identified recurrent mutations in genes related to intracellular transport and cell adhesion, and we have confirmed recurrent mutations of MYO5B in PCC/PGL cases with malignant potential. Our study suggests that deregulated Rab and Rac/Rho pathways may be important in PCC/PGL tumorigenesis.
