• CRLF2_sequencing_project_

  I hope to gain insight into novel genetic aberrations present in these patients that will highlightimportant pathways that are involved in this subtype of leukaemia. It would be interesting to see ifthe mutations and pathways that are activated are consistent between the patients, or differencesare observed dependent upon whether the patient has the translocation or the PAR1 deletion. Ofnote is the high association with either numerical gains of chromosome X or numerical/structuralabnormalities of chromosome 21 (Down syndrome, iAMP21) in patients with CRLF2 deregulation. Ihope to find abnormalities linking chromosomes X and 21 to CRLF2 deregulation in BCP‐ALL. Byincluding the three patients that are normal for CRLF2, but have consistent genetic abnormalitiesfound in the experimental cohort, I expect to find genetic differences between these two groupsthat will help us to identify novel molecular targets specific to CRLF2 deregulation.

• Transcriptome sequencing of Gingivo-buccal Cancer : ICGC-India Project_YR03

  Transcriptome Sequencing of Gingivo-buccal Cancer: ICGC-India ProjectAs a part of the ICGC, India has undertaken genomic studies on gingivobuccal cancer of the oral cavity, which is the most prevalent form of cancer among men in India. There are various known environmental (life-style) correlates of this cancer, the most important of which are tobacco chewing and HPV infection. Transcriptome sequencing of paired RNA samples – isolated from the tumor and adjacent normal tissues of 12 patients – have been performed. Detailed clinical characterization of the patients, collection of data on demographic and environmental exposures, and isolation of DNA samples from adjacent normal and tumor tissues collected from each patient are being done at the Advanced Centre for Research, Treatment and Education on Cancer, Mumbai. Sequencing is being performed at the National Institute of Biomedical Genomics, Kalyani.

• Molecular Sub-grouping of CNS-PNET

  In our study we aimed to define CNS-PNET subgroups. We performed Expression, Genotyping and/or Immunohistochemistry on 142 samples from 20 worldwide centers. Using these techniques, we have identified three molecular subgroups with distinct expression and copy number patterns, as well as, unique clinical characteristics. Specifically, these molecular subgroups were distinguished by primitive neural (group 1), oligoneural (group 2), and mesenchymal lineage (group 3) gene-expression signatures with differential expression of cell-lineage markers LIN28 and OLIG2. Our report underscores the importance of concerted, collaborative efforts to study large retrospective cohorts of tumours and patients to accelerate biological and ultimately therapeutic studies of rare tumours. The outcome of such a collaboration allowed us to identify LIN28 and OLIG2 as promising diagnostic and prognostic molecular markers for CNS PNET that warrant further assessment in prospective clinical trials.

• Whole genome characterisation of lung cancer organoids and tissue

  Organoids are self-organizing 3D structures grown from stem cells that recapitulate essential aspects of organ structure and function. Here we describe a method to establish long-term expanding human airway organoids from broncho-alveolar biopsies or lavage material. The pseudostratified airway organoid epithelium consists of basal cells, functional multi-ciliated cells, mucus-producing goblet cells, and CC10-secreting club cells. Airway organoids derived from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients allow assessment of CFTR function in an organoid swelling assay. Organoid culture conditions also allow gene editing as well as the derivation of various types of lung cancer organoids. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection recapitulated central disease features and dramatically increases organoid cell motility, found to be driven by the non-structural viral NS2 protein. We conclude that human airway organoids represent versatile models for the in vitro study of hereditary, malignant, and infectious pulmonary disease.

• Genomic Heterogeneity and the Small Renal Mass

  Tumor heterogeneity is believed to represent a barrier to pre-operative genomic characterization in kidney cancer. Previous studies of heterogeneity in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) evaluated only large and metastatic tumors. In small renal tumors in which multiple biopsies are not feasible, the extent of heterogeneity remains unknown. In this study, we evaluated how the extent of genomic heterogeneity in small and large ccRCC. A total of 23 small (<4cm ) and 24 large (>7cm ) ccRCC had 3 regions sampled for evaluation of copy number, clear-cell A/clear-cell B (ccA/ccB) classification, and cell cycle progression (CCP) score. Small tumors have less genomic complexity and significantly fewer subclonal events. Pre-treatment genomic characterization based on a single biopsy in small ccRCC can provide insight into biologic potential to make clinical decisions.

• MuTHER_adipose_tissue_small_RNA_expression

  We investigate the naturally occurring variation of small RNA expression in conjunction with genetic and gene expression variation. We shall assess the variation in subabdominal fat tissue small RNA levels in 168 unrelated MuTHER individuals. Using gene expression data from the same samples, we can survey how much the small RNA expression contributes to the variance in gene expression profiles. We can also take advantage of the high density genotyping data on these samples to identify genetic associations of small RNA expression levels, and the downstream effect of the genetic variants in small RNA sequence. Previous small RNA sequencing efforts have also extended the repertoire of small RNAs, and we hope to potentially find additional small RNAs active in adipose tissue biology. Altogether, the project should provide an exciting view into small RNA biology in humans, and lead to development of new methodology for analysis of molecular phenotype data.

• A proteogenomic atlas of the human neural retina

  The human neural retina is enriched for alternative splicing, and it is estimated that more than 10% of variants associated with inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) alter splicing. Previous research mainly used short-read RNA-sequencing techniques to investigate retina-specific splicing and splicing factors. However, this technique provides limited information about transcript isoforms. To gain a deeper understanding of the human neural retina and its isoforms, we generated a proteogenomic atlas that combines PacBio long-read RNA-sequencing data with mass-spectrometry and whole-genome sequencing data from three healthy human neural retina samples. About one third of the nearly 60,000 transcript isoforms were novel, and ten novel peptides that confirmed novel isoforms were detected. This study highlights the importance of studying tissue-specific transcriptomes in greater detail to better understand tissue-specific regulation and to identify disease-causing variants.

• Clonally heritable gene expression imparts a layer of diversity within cell types

  Cell types can be classified according to shared patterns of transcription. Non-genetic variability among individual cells of the same type has been ascribed to stochastic transcriptional bursting and transient cell states. Using high coverage single cell RNA profiling, we asked whether long-term, heritable differences in gene expression can impart diversity within cells of the same type. Studying clonal human lymphocytes and mouse brain cells, we uncovered a vast diversity of heritable gene expression patterns among different clones of cells of the same type in vivo. We combined chromatin accessibility and RNA profiling on different lymphocyte clones to reveal thousands of regulatory regions exhibiting interclonal variation which could be directly linked to interclonal variation in gene expression. Our findings identify a source of cellular diversity, which may have important implications for how cellular populations are shaped by selective processes in development, aging and disease.

• Evolutionary Trajectories of Small Cell Lung Cancer under Therapy

  Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is one of the deadliest human cancers with a five-years survival rate of less than 7%. The standard of care for extensive-stage SCLC consists of systemic treatment with platinum and etoposide, recently combined with PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). SCLC patients show high sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy, followed by rapid recurrence, which distinguishes SCLC from most human cancers. Unfortunately, second-line treatment with other chemotherapeutics or immunotherapy is only marginally effective, and patients ultimately succumb to their disease. We performed whole exome sequencing, whole genome sequencing and transcriptome sequencing of multiple tumor regions from 65 patients with SCLC. We determined tumor phylogenies at diagnosis and throughout chemotherapy and immunotherapy by multi-region sequencing of 160 tumors from 65 patients, to thus decipher the evolutionary processes underlying the remarkable sensitivity of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) to chemotherapy.

• The Emirati T2T-level Pangenome: A complete Diploid Graph of 58 Genomes

  This study presents a comprehensive Emirati telomere-to-telomere level (T2T) pangenome, constructed from 116 haplotype-resolved assemblies generated from 58 individuals, including 28 trio-based and 30 single-sample assemblies. The assemblies exhibit high contiguity (median 150 Mb) and high consensus accuracy (median QV 59), with 71.9% of chromosomes reaching T2T-level scaffold status. The resulting pangenome graph captures both globally shared and regionally enriched genetic variation, including sequences in complex regions that are inaccessible to less complete assemblies. Comparisons indicate diversity levels comparable to those of the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium, while highlighting unique Emirati genomic features. This reference forms a key resource for human pangenomics and precision medicine in the UAE. This work provides a foundational resource to improve variant discovery and genome annotation, contributing vital diversity data to global pangenomics efforts and enabling precision medicine in the region.
