• PAX4 loss of function increases diabetes risk by altering human pancreatic endocrine cell development

  The coding variant (p.Arg192His) in the transcription factor PAX4 is associated with an altered risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D) in East Asian populations. In mice, Pax4 is essential for beta cell formation but its role on human beta cell development and/or function is unknown. Participants carrying the PAX4 p.His192 allele exhibited decreased pancreatic beta cell function compared to homozygotes for the p.192Arg allele in a cross-sectional study in which we carried out an intravenous glucose tolerance test and an oral glucose tolerance test. In a pedigree of a patient with young onset diabetes, several members carry a newly identified p.Tyr186X allele. In the human beta cell model, EndoC-βH1, PAX4 knockdown led to impaired insulin secretion, reduced total insulin content, and altered hormone gene expression. Deletion of PAX4 in human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived islet-like cells resulted in derepression of alpha cell gene expression. In vitro differentiation of hiPSCs carrying PAX4 p.His192 and p.X186 risk alleles exhibited increased polyhormonal endocrine cell formation and reduced insulin content that can be reversed with gene correction. Together, we demonstrate the role of PAX4 in human endocrine cell development, beta cell function, and its contribution to T2D-risk.

• Peripheral blood RNA sequencing of samples for a healthy cohort and a cohort with cancer patients

  RNA sequencing (fastq files) of white blood cells (WBCs) from healthy donors (n=376) and cancer patients (n=421) with different diagnoses, stages of disease and previously administered treatments, was performed. Samples from cancer patients were collected from the BostonGene clinical program; all patients provided written consent per IRB-approved protocols. Blood samples from healthy donors were purchased from multiple collection centers throughout the United States. Whole blood samples (3 ml) in K2-EDTA tubes received within 24 hours of collection at RT underwent red blood cell (RBC) lysis to isolate WBCs. Isolated WBCs for RNA sequencing were centrifuged at 300 x g for 5 minutes with a maximum of 10^6 cells per vial. The supernatant was removed, and the cells were resuspended in cold Homogenization Buffer (2% 1-Thioglycerol, Promega). Samples were then frozen at -80°C until extraction. RNA extraction was performed from frozen samples with Maxwell RSC simplyRNA Cells Kit (Promega) using the benchtop automated Maxwell RSC Instrument (Promega). Libraries were prepared with Illumina TruSeq® Stranded mRNA Library Prep (Poly-A mRNA; stranded). Libraries were sequenced on NovaSeq 6000 as Paired-End Reads (2x150) with targeted coverage of 50 mln reads.

• Development of Novel Histiocytic Sarcoma Organoid Model for Drug Discovery

  Histiocytic sarcoma is an extremely rare and aggressive hematopoietic malignancy. Its pathogenesis remains poorly understood and effective treatments are lacking. We treated a patient with histiocytic sarcoma of soft tissue in Osaka International Cancer Institute and established an organoid culture from a resected tumor specimen using a modified air���liquid interface method. After serial passaging, the organoid was successfully xenografted into NOD-scid IL2Rgnull (NSG) mice. The established organoid retained key histological features and genetic characteristics of the original tumor. This organoid model offers a novel and reliable platform for studying the biology of histiocytic sarcoma and may contribute to the development of future therapeutic strategies.

• Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing for high-grade glioma

  We conducted whole-genome bisulfite sequencing to delineate base-resolution methylomes of gliomas harboring G34R mutation as well as those harboring K27M and no mutations in H3F3A. Comparative analysis of these three glioma subgroups revealed that G34 subgroup exhibited lower global methylation levels, comparable CpG island (CGI) methylation levels, and compromised hypermethylation of telomere-proximal CGIs, compared to the other two subgroups. Genomic regions specifically hypermethylated in G34 subgroup were enriched for CGIs. CGIs with G34V-mutated histone H3.3 in the glioma cell line KNS-42 were hypermethylated compared to those without it, suggesting a correlation between G34-mutated histone H3.3 in CGI hypermethylation.

• Development of hunanized mice for human hematopoisis and immunity research

  We obtained peripheral blood or bone marrow samples from 112 acute myeloid leukemia patients and examined sensitivity and resistance of the AML samples to molecular targeting drugs. By doing RNA sequencing using AML cells, we found heterogenous gene expression patterns in AML with different mutational landscapes. From the RNA sequencing, we identified anti-apoptosis, cell cycle progression, and immune-related signals as pathways up-regulated in AML cells as compared with normal CD34+ cells. From the pathway analyses, we further setup in vitro experiments to find vulnerability genes in clinically-aggressive AML. BIRC, BCL2, MCL1, AURKB, and KIF10 may be essential molecules for AML cell survival and proliferation.

• A personalised medicine approach for ponatinib-resistant chronic myeloid leukaemia

  Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is characterised by the presence of a fusion driver oncogene, BCR-ABL1, which is a constitutive tyrosine kinase. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the central treatment strategy for CML patients and have significantly improved survival rates, but the T315I mutation in the kinase domain of BCR-ABL1 confers resistance to all clinically approved TKIs, except ponatinib. However, compound mutations can mediate resistance even to ponatinib and remain a clinical challenge in CML therapy. Here, we investigated a ponatinib-resistant CML patient through whole genome sequencing (WGS) to identify the cause of resistance and to find alternative therapeutic targets.

• Sequencing data of multiple sarcoma samples for personalized medicine and endotype identification

  Sequencing data derived from multiple patient samples was used to guide multiple patient-specific experiments and identify potential therapeutic options. These diseases are rare and high-risk (undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma) and thus have few available validated clinical options. This leaves the population of patients with few options if, and when, standard therapy fails to cure or control disease. An aspect of the personalize therapy design included the identification of broader disease endotypes (a combination of genetic and clinical data describing patient status) to identify subgroups of the individual disease that could better define treatments and could segment patient populations for deeper preclinical research.

• MorphoITH: A Framework for Deconvolving Intra-Tumor Heterogeneity Using Tissue Morphology

  This study introduces MorphoITH, a framework for deconvolving intra-tumor heterogeneity (ITH) in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) based on tissue morphology from histopathological slides. The study tested MorphoITH's ability to capture different aspects of morphology and to reflect genetic ITH. The data deposited here is derived from a morphology guided multi-regional sequencing dataset used to study the relationship between morphology and genetic evolution. This dataset consists of whole exome sequencing of tumor from multiple sites and adjacent normal samples which were collected from two patients treated in affiliated hospitals of the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UTSW), including Parkland Hospital.
