RNA-seq study of a Princess Margaret Cancer Centre human acute myeloid leukemia patient cohort

The PMCC AML RNAseq dataset consists of 81 AML patient samples (clinical data in Supplemental Table 11 of manuscript), processed in two batches. These patient samples are able to engraft in the NSG (NOD.Cg PrkdcscidIl2rgtm1Wjl /SzJ) mouse model. Five patients (90543, 598, 90240, 110484, 100500) were included in both batches. Viaably frozen material from the Leukemia Tissue Bank at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre/ University Health Network were thawed by dropwise addition of X-VIVO + 50% fetal calf serum supplemented with DNase (100μg/mL final concentration, Roche). RNA was extracted from bulk peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) using the RNeasy Micro Kit (Qiagen Inc.). A paired-end 76 base-pair flow-cell lane Illumina High seq 2000 yielded an average of 240 million sequence reads aligning to genome per sample at the Genome Sciences Centre, BC Cancer Agency for cohort 1. Cohort 2 was subjected to 125 bp, paired-end RNA-sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq 2500 with an average of 50 million reads/sample at the Centre for Applied Genomics, Sick Kids Hospital.
