• RNA-seq of uncultured CD112high and CD112low long-term(LT) human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and cultured and lentiviral transduced (CTRL, INKA1-OE) LT- and short-term HSC from umbilical cord blood

  We performed RNA-sequencing to elucidate the biological pathways (1) altered by INKA1 overexpression in LT-HSC and ST-HSC that may contribute to the induced transient restraint in generating proliferative hematopoietic output in vivo and in vitro; and (2) that underlie the differential in vitro priming and regeneration phenotypes of CD112high and CD112low LT-HSC. Therefore, we prospectively isolated indicated subpopulations from 3 independent human umbilical cord blood pools and subjected them either to RNA-sequencing directly or following culture, lentiviral transduction and purification of the transduced cell fractions.

• NHLBI GO-ESP: Family Studies (Familial Atrial Fibrillation)

  The NHLBI "Grand Opportunity" Exome Sequencing Project (GO-ESP), a signature project of the NHLBI Recovery Act investment, was designed to identify genetic variants in coding regions (exons) of the human genome (the "exome") that are associated with heart, lung and blood diseases. These and related diseases that are of high impact to public health and individuals from diverse racial and ethnic groups will be studied. These data may help researchers understand the causes of disease, contributing to better ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat diseases, as well as determine whether to tailor prevention and treatments to specific populations. This could lead to more effective treatments and reduce the likelihood of side effects. GO-ESP is comprised of five collaborative components: 3 cohort consortia - HeartGO, LungGO, and WHISP - and 2 sequencing centers - BroadGO and SeattleGO. Large epidemiological studies have demonstrated a significant heritable component in atrial fibrillation (AF), especially the Lone forms, suggesting a monogenic syndrome. Although substantial genetic contribution has been made to the etiology of AF, the specific genes have not yet been identified. The familial form of this disease remains poorly characterized and largely undetermined. Here we seek to identify, characterize and determine the natural course of AF in our clinical practice. We identified four large multi-generation families (FAF 1-4). In FAF 1-2, most family members have symptomatic paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (AF) and were adequately treated with a combination of rate and rhythm therapies. By contrast, the AF substrate in FAF 3 and 4 was resistant to anti-arrhythmic drugs and ablation therapies.

• Initial whole genome sequencing of plasma cell neoplasms in First Responders exposed to the World Trade Center attack of September 11, 2001

  The World Trade Center (WTC) attack of September 11, 2001 created an unprecedented environmental exposure to known and suspected carcinogens. High incidence of multiple myeloma (MM) and precursor conditions has been reported among first responders to the WTC disaster. To expand on our prior screening studies, and to characterize the genomic impact of the exposure to known and potential carcinogens in the WTC debris, we were motivated to perform whole genome sequencing (WGS) of WTC first responders and recovery workers who developed a plasma cell disorder after the attack. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We performed WGS of 9 CD138-positive bone marrow mononuclear samples from patients who were diagnosed with plasma cell disorders after the WTC disaster. RESULTS: No significant differences were observed in comparing the post-WTC driver and mutational signatures landscape with 110 previously published WGS from 56 patients with MM and the CoMMpass WGS cohort (n=752). Leveraging constant activity of the single base substitution mutational signatures 1 and 5 over time, we estimated that tumor-initiating chromosomal gains were windowed to both pre- and post-WTC exposure. CONCLUSIONS: Although limitations in sample size preclude any definitive conclusions, our findings suggest that the observed increased incidence of plasma cell neoplasms in this population is due to complex and heterogeneous effects of the WTC exposure that may have initiated or contributed to progression of malignancy.

• Transcriptomic analysis of Acute Myeloid Leukemia stem cells

  Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is characterized by the accumulation of clonal myeloid blast cells unable to differentiate into mature leukocytes. Chemotherapy induces remission in the majority of patients, but relapse rates are high and lead to poor clinical outcomes. Since this is primarily caused by chemotherapy-resistant leukemic stem cells (LSCs), it is essential to eradicate LSCs to improve patient survival. LSCs have predominantly been studied at the transcript level, thus lacking information about post-transcriptionally regulated genes and associated networks. Here we extend our previous report on LSC proteomes to healthy age-matched hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) and correlate the proteomes to the corresponding transcriptomes. By comparing LSCs to leukemic blasts and healthy HSPCs, we validate candidate LSC markers and highlight novel and potentially targetable proteins that are absent or only lowly expressed in HSPCs. In addition, our data provides strong evidence that LSCs harbor a characteristic energy metabolism, adhesion molecule composition, as well as RNA processing properties. Furthermore, correlating proteome and transcript data of the same individual samples highlights the strength of proteome analyses, which are particularly potent in detecting alterations in metabolic pathways. In summary, our study provides a comprehensive proteomic and transcriptomic characterization of functionally validated LSCs, blasts and healthy HSPCs, representing a valuable resource helping to design LSC-directed therapies.

• Alterations in the gut microbiome implicate key taxa and metabolic pathways across inflammatory arthritis phenotypes

  Musculoskeletal diseases affect up to 20% of adults worldwide. The gut microbiome has been implicated in inflammatory conditions, but large-scale metagenomic evaluations have not yet traced the routes by which immunity in the gut affects inflammatory arthritis. To characterize the community structure and associated functional processes driving gut microbial involvement in arthritis, the Inflammatory Arthritis Microbiome Consortium investigated 440 stool shotgun metagenomes comprising 221 adults diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, or psoriatic arthritis and 219 healthy controls and individuals with joint pain without an underlying inflammatory cause. Diagnosis explained about 2% of gut taxonomic variability, which is comparable in magnitude to inflammatory bowel disease. We identified several candidate microbes with differential carriage patterns in patients with elevated blood markers for inflammation. Our results confirm and extend previous findings of increased carriage of typically oral and inflammatory taxa and decreased abundance and prevalence of typical gut clades, indicating that distal inflammatory conditions, as well as local conditions, correspond to alterations to the gut microbial composition. We identified several differentially encoded pathways in the gut microbiome of patients with inflammatory arthritis, including changes in vitamin B salvage and biosynthesis and enrichment of iron sequestration. Although several of these changes characteristic of inflammation could have causal roles, we hypothesize that they are mainly positive feedback responses to changes in host physiology and immune homeostasis. By connecting taxonomic alternations to functional alterations, this work expands our understanding of the shifts in the gut ecosystem that occur in response to systemic inflammation during arthritis.

  The Human Cell Atlas initiative is an ambitious global research effort which aims to describe every cell in the human body across all developmental stages to generate a reference map to accelerate progress in science and medicine particularly relating to human development and disease. The initiative is led by investigators based at the Wellcome Sanger Institute and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard and funding support from the Wellcome and NIH. This specific project will assess human development. We aim to interrogate the cellular composition and molecular regulators underpinning development and maturation through single cell RNA-sequencing/spatial transcriptomics and computational algorithms to predict cellular developmental trajectories and cell-cell interactions. We will subsequent validate these findings in situ using allied imaging technologies e.g. immunohistochemistry and RNAscope and in vitro culture of human intestinal organoids (HIOs). This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• Platinum-based chemotherapy induces opposing effects on immunotherapy response-related spatial and stromal biomarkers in the bladder cancer microenvironment

  The goal of the current project was to investigate the modulation of the tumor-immune microenvironment (TME) by neo-adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy in muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Furthermore, we aimed to focus on how this modulation affects biomarkers of response to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Additionally, we aimed to explore the differences between MVAC and gemcitabine-containing platinum-based regimens regarding their effects on the bladder TME.

• Detection of maternal DNA contamination in the placenta

  We use whole-genome sequencing of monozygotic (and dizygotic) twins to detect somatic mutations to infer the cellular history of the twinning event. We recruited monozygotic twins with varying degrees of fetal membranes to compare the twinning events between theses subsets. We used blood, buccal epithelial cell, placenta, and umbilical cord to trace the embryonic somatic mutations. Using the somatic mutations from various tissues we infer the approximate timing of twinning in each monozygotic twin subtypes.

• Field Studies of Human Immunity to Amebiasis in Bangladesh (NIH Birth Cohort) and Exploration of the Biologic Basis for Underperformance of Oral Polio and Rotavirus Vaccines in Bangladesh (PROVIDE)

  NIH birth cohort study Amebiasis is a common cause of diarrhea and is associated with malnutrition in grade-school aged children in an urban slum of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Field Studies of Human Immunity to Amebiasis in Bangladesh was designed to determine the contribution of amebiasis to illness in the first 2 years of life when most deaths due to diarrhea occur, and understand the immunologic and genetic factors that protect children from amebiasis. The hypothesis underlying the study is that susceptibility to amebiasis is determined by host innate and acquired immune responses that vary between individuals in part due to: human genetic polymorphisms; environmental influences including malnutrition and concurrent geohelminth infection; and virulence differences among Entamoeba histolytica genotypes. Specific aims proposed in the design of the study were to: a) Measure the incidence of amebiasis and correlate it with human and parasite genetic polymorphisms, immune responses, and environmental factors such as geohelminth infection and malnutrition; b) Test the hypothesis that protective immunity is mediated both by innate immune responses initiated via TLR stimulation as well as by mucosal IgA against the Gal/GalNAc lectin and systemic IFN-γ; c) Test for the association of common genetic polymorphisms in host innate and acquired immune genes with incidence of amebiasis. 629 newborn babies were enrolled and followed regularly through bi-weekly surveillance for diarrheal episodes, anthropometry at 3-month interval until 60 months of age. The infants that were consented for GWAS analysis were genotyped in 3 separate batches at different times, on 3 different arrays. Quality control was performed on the 3 separate data sets and then jointly after merging. Genetic data available on 447 infants together with their phenotype data is made available in this submission PROVIDE (Performance of Rotavirus and Oral Polio Vaccines in Developing Countries) Study Oral polio and rotavirus vaccines are significantly less effective in children living in the developing world. Environmental enteropathy, which is associated with intestinal inflammation, decreased absorption and increased permeability, may contribute substantially to oral vaccine failure in developing country settings. The primary objective of the study was to determine the association of environmental enteropathy with the efficacy of oral polio and rotavirus vaccines in children in Bangladesh. Secondary and exploratory objectives were designed to address other possible causes of oral vaccine underperformance including malnutrition, interference with maternal or breastmilk antibodies, changes in gut microbiota, and genetic susceptibility. The PROVIDE study was structured as a 2x2 clinical trial with a prospective birth cohort enrollment of 700 infants and their mothers in the urban slum of Mirpur, Dhaka, Bangladesh. All children received the full series of Bangladesh's Expanded Program on Immunization vaccines, including oral polio vaccine (OPV) and followed for their first 2 years of life. Half the children were randomized to receive an inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) for their 4th dose at 39 weeks instead of the standard OPV dose. In the other trial, half the infants received the 2-dose rotavirus vaccine (Rotarix) with delayed dosing at 10 and 17 weeks of age. A detailed description of the study design and procedures can be obtained from PROVIDE methods publication: Kirkpatrick B.D., Colgate R.E., Mychaleckyj J.C., Haque R., Dorothy D.M., Carmolli M.P., et al. (2015) Am J Trop Med Hyg 92, 744-751 The Poliovirus trial and results are described in Mychaleckyj et al, Vaccine 2016 The Rotavirus trial and results are described in Colgate et al, Clin Infect Dis 2016 The PROVIDE infants were genotyped on a custom Affymetrix Axiom array (30K SNPs) at the University of Virginia Center for Public Health Genomics; and on a pre-production version of the Illumina MEGA v2 chip at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, UK. The latter genotyping was performed under the auspices of the VaccGene Consortium. Analyses are ongoing to identify variants associated with the included phenotypes.
