• Genomic Landscape of Colorectal Cancer in a Multi-Ancestry Cohort

  Elucidating the tumor mutational landscape of colorectal cancer (CRC) in admixed and ancestrally diverse populations is essential to enable precision medicine advancements that benefit individuals of all backgrounds. This study draws from the Latino Colorectal Cancer Consortium (LC3) and other prior initiatives to characterize and examine the somatic mutational patterns of colorectal tumors in Hispanic/Latino/Latina patients (henceforth referred to as Latino) as compared to other racial and ethnic populations. It includes paired tumor-normal whole-exome sequencing from 718 patients with primary CRC (128 Latino and 469 non-Latino individuals) to investigate the associations between somatic mutational features and both self-reported ethnicity and genetic ancestry. Somatic mutations and inherited variants were called, and global genetic ancestry proportions (African, Asian, European, Native American) were estimated from inherited variants using ADMIXTURE based on reference samples from the 1000 Genomes Project (1KGP) and the Population Architecture using Genomics and Epidemiology (PAGE) Study. Associations between genetic ancestry and gene-level mutational status, microsatellite instability status, and tumor mutational burden were estimated using logistic regression, after adjusting for age at diagnosis, sex, tumor location, and stage.

• North American Brain Expression Consortium (NABEC) Exome Sequencing

  A fundamental challenge in the post-genome era is to understand and annotate the consequences of genetic variation, particularly within the context of human tissues. We describe a set of integrated experiments designed to investigate the effects of common genetic variability on mRNA expression distinct human brain regions. We show that brain tissues may be readily distinguished based on expression profile. We find an abundance of genetic cis regulation mRNA expression. We observe that the largest magnitude effects occur across distinct brain regions. We believe these data, which we have made publicly available, will be useful in understanding the biological effects of genetic variation.

• Transcriptomic profiling of fragile X syndrome unmethylated full mutation carriers

  Total RNA sequencing of fibroblasts from two unrelated FMR1 unmethylated full mutation carriers, a fragile X patient and a control individual. The existence of rare, unmethylated full mutation carriers who carry the mutation that causes fragile X syndrome but do not gain methylation at the locus offers a rare opportunity to study the mechanisms underlying fragile X syndrome. This study aims to compare the transcriptomes of these four individuals in order to elucidate the mechanism behind the methylation a the FMR1 CGG repeat expansion that causes Fragile X syndrome.

• Comparison of structural variations from 10X Genomics linked-reads and conventional Illumina short-reads sequencing

  Structural variations (SVs) are large genomic rearrangements that can drive many diseases. Conventional short-reads whole genome sequencing (cWGS) allows their identification with base-pair resolution, but suffers from high false discovery rate. cWGS taps in short-range information from short-reads while linked-reads sequencing (10XWGS) utilizes long-range information. 10XWGS allows linkage of short-reads originating from the same large DNA molecule with a unique barcode captured in a gel bead in emulsion. This mitigates alignment-based artefacts from cWGS especially in repetitive regions. However, the false discovery rate of this technology is unclear. In this study, we performed a comprehensive analysis of different type and size of SVs predicted from these two technologies. The SVs common between both technologies were found to be highly specific by PCR and Sanger sequencing while validation rate dropped for uncommon events. Further, we propose a novel enrichment approach for filtering out false positive calls from both the technologies independently. To this end, we trained a machine learning model for respective technologies and used it to characterise SVs from MCF7 cell line and a primary breast cancer tumor with high precision. This approach would be valuable in understanding true mechanisms driven by SVs in various diseases.

• Genome-wide SNP data of Fulani populations from the Sahel belt

  This project seeks to uncover the genetic structure and ancestry of the Fulani populations across the Sahel/Savannah Belt. The study includes two datasets (''WGA_Fulani_Database'' and ''Saliva_Fulani_Ddatabase''), and SNP-genotyping data was generated using the Illumina Infinium H3Africa Consortium array (BeadChip type: H3Africa_2019_20037295_B1) in two genotyping batches (TE-2559_201029 and TE-2559_201020). In total, 419 were genotyped for this study and the key results were presented in Fortes-Lima et al. 2024 (doi: 10.1101/2024.06.22.600206).

• Profiling the genomic landscape and evolutionary history of polyploid giant cancer cells in undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcomas

  In this study, we characterise PGCCs in ten pleomorphic sarcomas and use topographic single-cell DNA sequencing (scDNA-seq) to investigate their genomic landscape. We selected PGCCs based on their nuclear morphology, including mononucleated or multinucleated bizarre, misshapen nuclei, and analysed them at single-cell resolution. Histopathological analysis showed that PGCCs were often randomly distributed throughout the tumour and did not appear in clusters, suggesting that they arise de novo rather than through clonal expansion. scDNA-seq revealed that PGCCs originate from the dominant tumour population and exhibit extensive copy number heterogeneity, either due to subsequent or ongoing chromosomal instability. Both clonal and subclonal chromothripsis-like events were identified in PGCCs, indicating that chromothripsis is a key driver of heterogeneity in these cells and is linked to multinucleation rather than mononuclear PGCC formation.

• InTEAM Consortium - Alcoholic Hepatitis

  Alcoholic hepatitis (AH) is a life-threatening condition characterized by profound hepatocellular dysfunction for which targeted treatments are urgently needed. Identification of molecular drivers is hampered by the lack of suitable animal models. By performing RNA sequencing in livers from patients with different phenotypes of alcohol-related liver disease (ALD), we describe the transcriptional programs involved in disease progression. We uncovered that development of AH is characterized by the defective activity of liver-enriched transcription factors (LETFs). The PPARG predicted activation state was found increased in early forms of ALD, while AH was associated by a marked decrease in HNF4A-dependent gene expression along with a marked expression of the fetal HNF4A isoform (P2). TGFB1, a key upstream transcriptome regulator in AH, induced the use of HNF4a P2 promoter in hepatocytes, which resulted in abnormal bile acid synthesis and defective metabolic and synthetic functions. PPARG agonists partially prevented this effect. We conclude that targeting TGFB1 and epigenetic drivers that modulate HNF4A-dependent gene expression could be beneficial to improve hepatocellular function in patients with AH. The study was conducted thanks to a multicenter collaboration under the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA)-funded consortium: Integrated Approaches for Identifying Molecular Targets in Alcoholic Hepatitis (InTEAM).

• Mortality and risk of progression to adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma in patients with HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis

  Human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV)-1 causes the functionally debilitating disease HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/ tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) as well as adult T-cell leukemia lymphoma (ATLL). Although there were concerns that the mortality of HAM/TSP could be affected by the development of ATLL, prospective evidence was lacking in this area. In this 5-year prospective cohort study, we determined the mortality, prevalence, and incidence of ATLL in 527 HAM/TSP patients. The standard mortality ratio of HAM/TSP patients was 2.25, and ATLL was one of the major causes of death (5/33 deaths). ATLL prevalence and incidence in these patients were 3.0% and 3.81 per 1,000 person-years, respectively. To identify patients at a high risk of developing ATLL, flow cytometry, Southern blotting, and targeted sequencing data were analyzed in a separate cohort of 218 HAM/TSP patients. In 17% of the HAM/TSP patients, we identified an increase in T-cells positive for cell adhesion molecule 1 (CADM1), a marker for ATLL and HTLV-1 infected cells. Genomic analysis of these patients revealed that somatic mutations of HTLV-1 infected cells were seen in 90% of the cases and 11% of them had dominant clone and developed ATLL in the longitudinal observation. In this study, we were able to demonstrate for the first time that the increased mortality in patients with HAM/TSP and a significant effect of ATLL on their prognosis. Having dominant clonal expansion of HTLV-1- infected cells with ATLL-associated somatic mutations may be important characteristics of patients with HAM/TSP who are at an increased risk of developing ATLL.

• Fetal Genomics Consortium (FGC)

  Many of the congenital anomalies and associated genomic variants identified during prenatal care are rare, requiring aggregation and harmonization to assure their appropriate clinical interpretation and to support the expanding utility of genomics in perinatal medicine. The primary step in accomplishing this is the creation of interoperability allowing collection, collaborative storage, dissemination and use of harmonized and vetted genomic and phenotypic data. The overall goal of this project is to generate a prenatal repository for both clinical care and research ensuring data are Findable; Accessible; Interoperable; and Reusable. The specific goals are: (1) collect and organize data contributions from multiple sites using the cloud-based Terra platform; (2) establish a governance structure for data contributions across sites; (3) develop and implement a pipeline for phenotype driven analysis and implementation of fetal specific Phenopackets on Terra; (4) generate a searchable callset of genomic variants and phenotype features on Terra; and (5) explore methods for facilitating broad access and sharing of longitudinal phenotype and genomic data facilitating genomic analysis in the prenatal space.

• Single Cell Genotypic and Phenotypic Analysis of Measurable Residual Disease in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

  Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a group of blood cancers with high mortality. Even though complete remission is often achieved, majority of the AML patients still relapse. Measurable residual disease (MRD), defined as the population of cancer cells which persists following chemotherapy, is responsible for AML relapse. Understanding the biology enabling MRD clones to resist therapy is necessary to guide the development of curative treatments more effectively. Discriminating residual leukemic clones, preleukemic clones, and normal precursors remains a challenge with current MRD tools. We developed a single cell MRD (scMRD) assay by combining flow cytometric enrichment of the targeted precursor/blast population with integrated single cell DNA sequencing (scDNA-seq) and immunophenotyping (Tapestri, Missionbio). The platform utilizes a custom amplicon panel covering 109 amplicons across 31 genes frequently mutated in AML and a panel of 42 oligo-conjugated antibodies against surface makers. We applied our scMRD assay to sequence 30 MRD samples (multiplexed into 6) from 29 AML patients to study the clonal architecture and protein correlation. In addition, 2 MRD samples were sequenced with scDNA+protein sequencing technology without enrichment or multiplexing. Five patients with AML at diagnosis were also sequenced with scDNA+protein sequencing technology without enrichment or multiplexing. In order to establish the sensitivity of our scMRD assay, we spiked AML cells into normal bone marrow cells. We sequenced 12 such spiked samples after multiplexing.
