RNA sequencing data from glioblastoma primary cell lines treated with indisulam

This study aimed to develop NovumRNA, a bioinformatics pipeline designed to predict non-canonical tumor-specific antigens (ncTSAs) from human tumor RNA-sequencing data, potentially broadening the target pool for cancer neo-epitope-based immunotherapies. The splicing-modulating drug indisulam was investigated for its potential to induce aberrant transcriptomes, potentially increasing ncTSAs, subsequently predicted by NovumRNA. Four glioblastoma primary cell lines were derived from patient Cavitron Ultrasonic Aspirator (CUSA) material, cultured as neurospheres, and treated with indisulam or vehicle control. RNA was extracted at 6 and 16 hours post-treatment and sequenced using the NovaSeq platform. The resulting RNA-seq data was analyzed with NovumRNA, using healthy brain GTEx samples as controls, to identify and validate ncTSAs induced by indisulam treatment. NovumRNA is available at: https://github.com/ComputationalBiomedicineGroup/NovumRNA.

Dataset ID	Description	Technology	Samples
EGAD50000000957	The dataset includes RNA-sequencing results from four patient-derived glioblastoma cell lines treated with DMSO (vehicle control) or the splicing modulating-drug indisulam (at 6 and 16 hours), resulting in 12 RNA-seq samples. Paired-end sequencing produced 24 FASTQ.gz files. The RNA libraries were prepared using PolyA selection and ERCC spike-ins and sequenced on a NovaSeq platform. This dataset supports the analysis of drug-induced transcriptomic changes and the prediction of subsequent non-canonical tumor-specific antigens (ncTSAs) using the NovumRNA pipeline.
