• Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL) Recognize Unique Somatic Mutations and Mediate Objective Clinical Responses in Metastatic Breast Cancer

  The purpose of this study is to investigate the immunogenicity of tumor mutations in patients with metastatic cancer. Harvest and analysis of progressing metastatic lesions are used for generation of tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) cultures and the detections of somatic mutations. In vitro T cell activation assays are used to examine the immune recognition of tumor mutations by autologous TIL. Once a candidate is determined to have a cell product that meets the requirements of one of the Surgery Branch clinical trials, the candidate is evaluated for enrollment in a prospective adoptive cell therapy trial.

• A genome-wide CRISPR screen identifies CALCOCO2 as a regulator of beta cell function influencing type 2 diabetes risk

  Identification of the genes and processes mediating genetic association signals for complex diseases represents a major challenge. As many of the genetic signals for type 2 diabetes (T2D) exert their effects through pancreatic islet-cell dysfunction, we performed a genome-wide pooled CRISPR loss-of-function screen in a human pancreatic beta cell line. We assessed the regulation of insulin content as a disease-relevant readout of beta cell function and identified 580 genes influencing this phenotype. Integration with genetic and genomic data provided experimental support for 20 candidate T2D effector transcripts including the autophagy receptor CALCOCO2. Loss of CALCOCO2 was associated with distorted mitochondria, less proinsulin-containing immature granules and accumulation of autophagosomes upon inhibition of late-stage autophagy. Carriers of T2D-associated variants at the CALCOCO2 locus further displayed altered insulin secretion. Our study highlights how cellular screens can augment existing multi-omic efforts to support mechanistic understanding and provide evidence for causal effects at genome-wide association studies loci.

• Mind the gap: the relevance of the genome reference to resolve rare and pathogenic inversions

  Chromosomal inversions (INV) are particularly challenging to detect due to their copy-number neutral state and association with repetitive regions. Inversions represent about 1/20 of all balanced structural chromosome aberrations and can lead to disease by gene disruption or altering regulatory regions of dosage sensitive genes in cis. Short-read genome sequencing (srGS) can only resolve ~70% of cytogenetically visible inversions referred to clinical diagnostic laboratories, likely due to breakpoints in repetitive regions. Here we study twelve inversions by srGS (n=3) or long read genome sequencing (lrGS) (n=9)

• Comparison of transcriptomics profile of stem cell-derived beta cells from HUES8 and RC9

  Stem cell-derived islet cells have a potential to be used to restore endogenous insulin production in people with diabetes. The goal of this experiment is to compare the transcriptomics profile of stem-cell derived beta cells from two different cell lines: HUES8 (non-clinical grade) and RC9 (clinical grade) in terms of beta cell identity and maturity. Stem cell-derived islets were produced using differentiation protocol detailed in Rajaei et al. 2025 (manuscript approved in Science Translational Medicine, pending pubmed ID). Single cell transcriptomics data were generated using 10x Genomics 3' Single Cell Gene Expression kit.

• Human four week embryo head as reference for generating an enhancer compendium for neuronal and neural crest development using neural tube organoids.

  This study has the aim of generating an enhancer code compendium of early human neuronal and neural crest development. For this purpose, we generated human neural tube organoids from single cells from two induced pluripotent stem cell lines. The organoids were subject to combined single cell multiomics at four time points of differentiation. To evaluate the biological relevance of the cell types and states obtained from the organoids, we compared with data obtained from 10XGenomics single cell multiomics on the head of a single four weeks post conception human embryo.

• ABHD11 inhibition drives sterol metabolism to modulate T cell effector function and alleviate autoimmunity

  Chronic inflammation in autoimmunity is driven by hyperactive T cells with dysregulated metabolism. ABHD11 is a mitochondrial hydrolase that supports alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase function and has been associated with remission in rheumatoid arthritis. To explore its role in T cell function, we used CRISPR/Cas9 to knock down ABHD11 in Jurkat T cells and performed RNA-Seq analysis. Differential gene expression revealed widespread transcriptional changes, with sterol-related pathways among the most significantly enriched. These findings highlight ABHD11 as a potential regulator of metabolic programming in T cells with implications for autoimmunity.

• High Sensitivity ctDNA Analysis Using a Novel Panel and NOIR-SS Technology for Monitoring Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma

  This dataset contains sequencing data generated by targeted amplicon analysis using the NOIR-SS method in 15 patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissues (15 samples) and plasma cfDNA (50 samples) were analyzed. Tumor tissues were subjected to targeted panel sequencing to identify mutations in TP53, FGFR3, TERT, and KRAS/HRAS. Plasma cfDNA was analyzed using a tumor-informed approach focusing on the mutations identified in matched tumor tissues. Sequencing was performed on the Ion PGM or Ion S5 XL platform. Raw sequencing data are provided in FASTQ format under controlled access.

• Comprehensive genetic landscape, immune checkpoint profiling, and establishment of patient-derived xenograft (PDX) of metachronous brain tumors from constitutive mismatch repair deficiency with a biallelic variant on MSH6

  Constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in mismatch repair genes (PMS2, MSH6, MLH1, or MSH2) resulting in the development of a variety of different tumors, including brain neoplasms. This study molecularly characterized a Brazilian child with CMMRD, harboring two metachronous brain tumors (medulloblastoma and high-grade glioma), and established a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) of the CMMRD-associated brain tumor. Keywords: Brazil, Constitutional mismatch repair deficiency syndrome, exome, MSH6, medulloblastoma, high-grade glioma.

• PD-associated regulatory variants in human dopaminergic neurons reveals modulators of SCARB2 and BAG3 expression

  SNPs have been associated with the risk of Parkinson’s disease but not in regulatory regions. While those potentially disrupt TFBS altering gene expression and contributing to cis-regulatory variation. To study changes in A and B compartment interactions and in topologically associated domains (TADs), we sequenced: - 3D chromatin contact using LowC, 6 samples. 3 replicates for each condition: smNPC (controls) cells and differentiated neurons after 30 days. Resulting paired-end are provided as BAM files. In order to confirm the predicted impact of the PD-associated allele of rs144814361 on BAG3 promoter, we proceeded with genome editing of the TH-REP1 cell line by using prime editing to insert the “T” allele at the position chr10:119651405 in the BAG3 promoter. - Chromatin accessibility using ATAC-seq, 9 samples of derived cell line TH-REP1. 3 replicates for each condition: 1) iPSC Wild Type 2) SNP-BAG3 variant in iPSC 3) SNP-BAG3 variant in smNPC. BAG3 variant: heterozygous for the SNP variant: rs144814361 (chr10 119651405) Resulting sequencing are provided as paired-end FASTQ files.
