• Long-term organoid culture of a small intestinal neuroendocrine tumor

  Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) are rare and highly heterogeneous neoplasms whose incidence has markedly increased over the last decades. A grading system based on the tumor cells' proliferation index predicts high-risk for G3 NETs. However, low-to-intermediate grade (G1/G2) NETs have an unpredictable clinical course that varies from indolent to highly malignant. Cultures of human cancer cells enable to perform functional perturbation analyses that are instrumental to enhance our understanding of cancer biology. To date, no tractable and reliable long-term culture of G1/G2 NET has been reported to permit disease modeling and pharmacological screens. Here, we report of the first long-term culture of a G2 metastatic small intestinal NET that preserves the main genetic drivers of the tumor and retains expression patterns of the endocrine cell lineage. Replicating the tissue, this long-term culture showed a low proliferation index, and yet it could be propagated continuously without dramatic changes in the karyotype. The model was readily available for pharmacological screens using targeted agents and as expected, showed low tumorigenic capacity in vivo. Overall, this is the first long-term culture of NETs to faithfully recapitulate many aspects of the original neuroendocrine tumor.

• Single-Cell Genomic Analysis of Gastrointestinal Cancer

  Our study aimed to define the heterogeneity of gastrointestinal cancers at a single-cell resolution. We subjected single-cell suspensions derived from surgical resections of gastrointestinal cancer tissue, paired normal tissue, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) or their ex vivo cultures to high-throughput microfluidics based single-cell RNA and DNA sequencing. We analyzed the features of the tumor microenvironment including fibroblasts, endothelial cells, macrophages and lymphocytes to determine their contribution to tumor growth and progression. We also characterized the mechanisms of immunosuppression in these tumors. This analysis led to novel insights into the biology of the microenvironment and also enabled the identification of new treatment targets.

• dbGaP Collection: NIH Autism -omics Studies

  Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are early onset neurodevelopmental syndromes characterized by impairments in reciprocal social interaction and communication, accompanied by restricted and repetitive behaviors. ASDs afflict ~1% of the human population, and represent a major public health burden. Evidence for the etiology of ASD has consistently pointed to a strong genetic component, though the genetic architecture is indisputably complex. This dbGaP Collection consists of studies that include GWAS, sequencing (targeted, exome, whole genome), transcriptomics, etc, across many different cohorts. Many of the datasets have been curated and harmonized with NDAR prior to submission to dbGaP. Researchers who request and are approved to access this collection will be granted access to all related substudies in dbGaP as well as all NDAR data. Individual level genomics data will only be available for download through dbGaP along with minimal phenotype and pedigree information. Detailed phenotype and available imaging data related to these same research subjects are available for query and download within NDAR. The NDAR GUID will allow individual genomic data to be associated with all NDAR data collected for those subjects.

• Analysis of error profiles in deep next-generation sequencing data

  BackgroundSequencing errors are key confounding factors for detecting low-frequency genetic variants that are important for cancer molecular diagnosis, treatment, and surveillance using deep next-generation sequencing (NGS). However, there is a lack of comprehensive understanding of errors introduced at various steps of a conventional NGS workflow, such as sample handling, library preparation, PCR enrichment, and sequencing. In this study, we use current NGS technology to systematically investigate these questions.ResultsBy evaluating read-specific error distributions, we discover that the substitution error rate can be computationally suppressed to 10-5 to 10-4, which is 10- to 100-fold lower than generally considered achievable (10-3) in the current literature. We then quantify substitution errors attributable to sample handling, library preparation, enrichment PCR, and sequencing by using multiple deep sequencing datasets. We find that error rates differ by nucleotide substitution types, ranging from 10-5 for A>C/T>G, C>A/G>T, and C>G/G>C changes to 10-4 for A>G/T>C changes. Furthermore, C>T/G>A errors exhibit strong sequence context dependency, sample-specific effects dominate elevated C>A/G>T errors, and target enrichment PCR led to aprox 6-fold increase of overall error rate. We also find that more than 70% of hotspot variants can be detected at 0.1% - 0.01% frequency with the current NGS technology by applying in-silico error suppression.ConclusionsWe present the first comprehensive analysis of sequencing error sources in conventional NGS workflows. The error profiles revealed by our study highlight new directions for further improving NGS analysis accuracy both experimentally and computationally, ultimately enhancing the precision of deep sequencing.

• Low T cell diversity is associated with poor outcome in bladder cancer - Single cell RNAseq and TCRseq data

  T cells are crucial effector cells in the endogenous defense against cancer, yet the clinical impact of their quantity, diversity, and dynamics remains underexplored. In this study we performed single cell RNAseq paired with single cell TCR-seq on tumor and blood samples from 4 patients (n samples = 8). The goal was to investigate T cell subtypes of expanded and non-expanded T cell clones in blood and in tumors.

• Prevalence of transthyretin amyloidosis in patients with heart failure and no left ventricular hypertrophy

  The study prospectively enrolled patients admitted for HF with LV ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50% and LV wall thickness <12 mm. TTR cardiac amyloidosis was diagnosed according to accepted criteria, which include positive cardiac 99-Tc-DPD scintigraphy in the absence of monoclonal protein expansion in blood. In a cohort of patients with HFpEF without LVH, the prevalence of TTR cardiac amyloidosis was 5%. Transthyretin gene sequencing was performed in positive patients.

• Hypoxia acts as an environmental cue for the human TRM differentiation program

  Tissue-resident memory T-cells (TRM) provide frontline defense against infectious diseases and contribute to anti-tumor immunity; however, aside from the necessity of TGF-β, knowledge regarding TRM-inductive cues remains incomplete, particularly for human cells. Oxygen tension is an environmental cue that distinguishes peripheral tissues from the circulation and here, we demonstrate that differentiation of human CD8+ T-cells in the presence of hypoxia and TGF-β1 led to the development of a TRM phenotype, characterized by a greater than five-fold increase in CD69+CD103+ cells expressing human TRM hallmarks and enrichment for endogenous human TRM gene signatures, including increased adhesion molecule expression and decreased expression of genes involved in recirculation. Hypoxia and TGF-β1 synergized to produce a significantly larger population of TRM phenotype cells than either condition alone, and comparison of these cells from the individual and combination conditions revealed distinct phenotypic and transcriptional profiles, indicating a programming response to milieu rather than a mere expansion. Our findings identify a previously unreported cue for the TRM differentiation program and can enable facile generation of human TRM phenotype cells in vitro for basic studies and translational applications such as adoptive cellular therapy.

• High-resolution profile of neoantigen-specific TCR activation links moderate stimulation to increased resilience of engineered TCR-T cells

  Neoantigen-specific T cell receptors (neoTCRs) promise safe, personalized anti-tumor immunotherapy. Previously, we identified diverse neoTCRs restricted to different neoantigens in a melanoma patient. In this work, we now combined single-cell TCR- and RNA-sequencing after neoantigen-specific restimulation of peripheral blood-derived CD8+ T cells of this patient. We detected novel neoTCRs with specificity to the previously detected neoantigens and observe a heterogeneous spectrum of TCR-intrinsic activation patterns in response to a shared neoepitope ranging from previously detected higher frequent neoTCRs with moderate activation to rare ones with initially stronger activation.
