• Genetic heritage of the Baphuthi highlights an over-ethnicised notion of 'Bushman' in the Maloti-Drakensberg, southern Africa

  Using contemporary people as proxies for ancient communities is a contentious but necessary practice in anthropology. In southern Africa, the distinction between the Cape KhoeSan and eastern KhoeSan remains unclear as ethnicity labels have been changed through time and most communities were decimated if not extirpated. The eastern KhoeSan may have had genetic distinctions from neighbouring communities who speak Bantu languages and KhoeSan further away, alternatively the identity may not have been tied to any notion of biology, instead denoting communities with a nomadic 'lifeway' distinct from African agro-pastoralism. The Baphuthi of the 1800s in the Maloti-Drakensberg, southern Africa had a substantial KhoeSan constituency and a lifeway of nomadism, cattle raiding, and horticulture. Baphuthi heritage could provide insights into the history of the eastern KhoeSan. We examine genetic affinities of 23 Baphuthi to discern whether the narrative of KhoeSan descent reflects distinct genetic ancestry. Genome-wide SNP data (Illumina GSA) were merged with 52 global populations, for 160K SNPs. Genetic analyses show no support for a unique eastern KhoeSan ancestry distinct from other KhoeSan or southern Bantu-speakers. The Baphuthi have strong affinities with early-arriving southern Bantu-speaking (Nguni) communities, as the later-arriving non-Nguni show strong evidence of recent African admixture possibly related to Late-Iron Age migrations. The references to communities as 'San',and 'Bushman' in historic literature has often been misconstrued as notions of ethnic/biological distinctions. The terms may have reflected ambiguous references to non-sedentary polities instead, as seems to be the case for the eastern ‘Bushman’ heritage of the Baphuthi.

• Center for Craniofacial and Dental Genetics: Exome Sequencing of Orofacial Cleft Families

  Orofacial Clefts (OFCs) are genetically complex structural birth defects caused by genetic factors, environmental exposures, and their interactions. OFCs are the most common craniofacial anomalies in humans. Affect about 1 in 800 newborns, OFCs are also one of the most common structural birth defects worldwide. OFCs can impose a substantial personal cost resulting from the associated emotional and financial burden. On average a child undergoes 6 surgeries, spends 30 days in hospital, receives 5 years of orthodontic treatment, and participates in ongoing speech therapy, leading to an estimated total lifetime treatment cost of about $200,000. Individuals born with an OFC have higher infant mortality (especially in developing countries with limited access to care), higher mortality rates at all other stages of life, increased incidence of mental health problems, and higher risk for other disorders (notably including breast, brain, and colon cancers). Prior genetic studies have focused on the contribution of common genetic variants through genome-wide linkage and association studies. These studies have revealed a significant etiologic heterogeneity. One promising approach to dissect the etiology of OFCs into focus on subclinical phenotypic features present in the non-cleft family members of affected individuals. These subclinical features are subtle phenotypic features that may represent mild manifestations of the same risk genes; thus, their inclusion in family-based studies may clarify the inheritance patterns in OFC families. In this project, we conducted whole exome sequencing in multiplex families with both overt OFCs and subclinical phenotypes to identify high-impact genes causing OFCs.

• Understanding_the_development_of_resident_memory_T_cells__Trm__in_the_human_small_intestine_using_integrative_multiomic_approaches__Adult_RNA

  Animal studies have demonstrated that resident memory T (Trm) cells provide enhanced protective responses to a broad array of tissue-tropic pathogens, thus making Trm cells promising targets for novel vaccination strategies. However, the biological pathways that enable the long-term survival of Trm cells are poorly understood in humans. Here, we will employ a unique human intestinal transplantation setting that allows us to study the retention of persistent T cells in the grafts and the temporal development of resident T-cell populations from recruited recipient T cells. We will integrate high resolution transcriptomics, epigenetics, proteomics and immune repertoire single-cell data from purified intestinal T cells. These single-cell multiomics approaches will uncover the diversity and differentiation of the T cell populations in the human intestine, allowing us to temporally resolve the generation and maintenance of gut resident T cells.

• Ibrutinib induces a global chromatin reorganisation in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia

  Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is the most common haematological malignancy in developed countries. Ibrutinib (PCI-32765), a specific and irreversible inhibitor of Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) represents a major step forward in the treatment of CLL. We have undertaken a detailed analysis of the changes happening to the chromatin structure in CLL cells from patients continuously receiving oral doses of ibrutinib. ChIP-seq has been performed for H3K4me3, H3K27ac, H3K27me3 and EZH2 . We observed that Ibrutinib-dependent lymphocytosis correlates with a global and transient recruitment of EZH2 to active cis-regulatory elements and increased H3K27me3.

• Whole-genome and transcriptome versus panel sequencing in precision oncology: A translational-clinical comparison

  Precision oncology offers new cancer treatment options. While the use of whole-genome (WGS) and transcriptome (TS) sequencing remains often confined to specific clinical programs, molecular analysis with gene panels is more common clinical practice. Methods: Twenty patients with rare or advanced tumors sequenced by WGS/TS within the DKFZ/NCT/DKTK-MASTER program from 2015 to 2020 (MASTER 1) were additionally sequenced with the TSO500 DNA and TST170 RNA Assay by Illumina. Original Molecular Tumor Board (MTB) therapy recommendations (TR) were juxtaposed with TR from NGS panel data analysis (comparison 1). To mitigate temporal differences between the two sequencings, WGS/TS was bioinformatically reanalyzed (MASTER 2), and new TR were again compared (comparison 2). Results: In comparison 1, 47.1% of the MASTER 1’s TR and 62.8% of the panel’s TR were identical, as were 45.9% of the TR of MASTER 2 and 54.9% of the panel in comparison 2. In both MASTER 1 and MASTER 2, 26.5% and 36.1% of TR, respectively, relied on Biomarkers (BM) which were not covered by the panel. Eight of the ten MTB-derived therapy implementations were also supported in the panel, the two remaining ones being based on BM absent from the panel. Conclusions: About half of the TR in WGS/TS and panel sequencing were identical. Around a third of TR issued by WGS/TS were based on BM which are not covered by the panel, leading to therapy implementations. The presented data underscores the clinical value of comprehensive molecular analyses in individuals with advanced cancers.

• Targeted sequencing of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma tumour samples from the UK's Haematological Malignancy Research Network

  The UK’s Haematological Malignancy Research Network (www.HMRN.org) was established in 2004 to provide robust generalizable data to inform clinical practice and research. HMRN is a collaboration between researchers in the Epidemiology & Statistics Group (ECSG) at the University of York, a unified Clinical Network operating across 14 hospitals, and an integrated Haematological Malignancy Diagnostic Service (HMDS) in Leeds. Covering a population of around 4 million, HMRN collects detailed information about all patients diagnosed with a haematological malignancy within the HMRN region, accruing around 2,400 new diagnoses each year. The population has a similar socio-demographic profile to the country as a whole, and HMRN’s maturing data present an increasingly valuable resource to address real questions of concern to haematologists, commissioners and health service researchers – locally, nationally and internationally. This study forms part of a larger project employing targeted exome sequencing on tumour samples from patients diagnosed with a variety of both lymphoid and myeloid malignancies. The results for samples collected from 928 diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients, diagnosed within HMRN from 2005 to 2012, are provided.

• Population Architecture using Genomics and Epidemiology (PAGE): Causal Variants Across the Life Course (CALiCo): Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC)

  CALiCo ARIC The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study (ARIC), sponsored by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI), is a prospective epidemiologic study conducted in four U.S. communities. ARIC is designed to investigate the etiology and natural history of atherosclerosis, the etiology of clinical atherosclerotic diseases, and variation in cardiovascular risk factors, medical care and disease by race, gender, location, and date. ARIC includes a Cohort Component and a Community Surveillance Component. Cohort enrollment began in 1987. Each ARIC field center randomly selected and recruited a sample of approximately 4,000 individuals aged 45-64 from a defined population in their community. A total of 15,792 participants received an extensive examination, including medical, social, and demographic data. These participants were reexamined every three years with the first screen (baseline) occurring in 1987-89, the second in 1990-92, the third in 1993-95, and the fourth and last exam wastook place in 1996-98. Follow-up occurs yearly byA fifth cohort examination is underway (2011-2013). Yearly telephone tointerviews maintain contact with participants and to assess health status of the cohort. In the Community Surveillance Component, currently ongoing, these four communities are investigated to determine the community-wide occurrence of hospitalized myocardial infarction and coronary heart disease deaths in men and women aged 35-84 years. Hospitalized stroke is investigated in cohort participants only. The study conducts community surveillance of inpatient heart failure (ages 55 years and older) and cohort surveillance outpatient heart failure events beginning in 2005.

• Mid-pass Whole-genome Sequencing in a Malagasy Cohort Uncovers Body Composition Associations

  The majority of human genomic research studies have been conducted in European-ancestry cohorts, reducing the likelihood of detecting potentially novel and globally impactful findings. Here, we present mid-pass whole-genome sequencing data and a genome-wide association study in a cohort of 264 self-reported Malagasy individuals from three locations on the island of Madagascar. We describe genetic variation in this Malagasy cohort, providing insight into the shared and unique patterns of genetic variation across the island. We observe phenotypic variation by location, and find high rates of hypertension particularly in the Southern Highlands sampling site as well as elevated self-reported malaria prevalence in the West Coast site relative to other sites. After filtering to a subset of 214 minimally-related individuals, we find a number of genetic associations with body composition traits, including many variants that are only observed in African populations or populations with admixed African ancestry from the 1000 Genomes Project. This study highlights the importance of including diverse populations in genomic research for the potential to gain novel insights, even with small cohort sizes. This project was conducted in partnership and consultation with local stakeholders in Madagascar and serves as an example of genomic research that prioritizes community engagement and that has potential impacts on our understanding of human health and disease.
