• Circulating tumor cells Exome sequencing from breast cancer

  Single cell technologies allow interrogating the extent of tumor heterogeneity, providing novel insights into tumor evolution and treatment resistance mechanisms. Here, we investigated the level of genetic heterogeneity among circulating tumor cells (CTCs) at the single nucleotide variation and copy number aberration (CNA) levels and compared it to synchronous matched primary tumor/metastatic lesion from 3 metastatic breast cancer patients with triple-negative (TNBC), HER2-positive (HER2+) and estrogen-receptor-positive (ER+) tumors. Whole exome sequencing was performed on 3 synchronous bulk tumor tissue and 21 single/pooled CTC samples. When comparing bulk tissue with CTCs from the same patient, we found similar CNA profiles and the same patient-specific driver mutations for the HER2+ and TNBC tumors. Different CNA profiles and driver mutations were found for the ER+ tumor, with two distinct clones being identified in the CTCs, one harboring an activating ESR1 mutation, the other one bearing a TP53 mutation. These data suggest that tumor tissue and CTCs provide in a subset of patients complementary clinically relevant information to map tumor heterogeneity and monitor tumor evolution. Further validation is needed.

• Oxidative phosphorylation is a key ontogenetic feature of monocyte immunometabolism promoting myeloid differentiation after birth

  Neonates primarily rely on innate immunity, yet their inflammatory responses to microbes, particularly those of monocytes, are usually restricted compared to adults. This is controversially interpreted as immaturity increasing the risk of sepsis or essential programming allowing immune adaptation after birth. Which changes the cellular immunometabolism undergoes after birth and its role in these concepts are poorly defined. Here, we applied transcriptomic, metabolic, and immunological approaches and found that monocytes exhibit an inverse ontogenetic balance of immunometabolism. Our data show that glycolysis in monocytes increases within the first year of life and fuels their inflammatory responsiveness. In contrast, oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) is high in neonatal monocytes supporting myeloid differentiation but declines only gradually during the first five years of life. Treatment of neonatal monocytes with lipopolysaccharide induces an adult-like immunometabolic phenotype. Ketogenic diet restricts glycolysis in adult monocytes, but cannot reactivate OXPHOS and revive a neonatal-like immunometabolic phenotype, suggesting that neonatal metabolism is hardwired and cannot be restored by simple dietary changes. Transcriptional network and population-wide human variation analyses identified E2F1, MYB, STAT1 and FLI1 as important regulators of age-dependent cell functions and related energy demands in human monocytes. Collectively, our findings show that restricted glycolysis and increased OXPHOS are a physiological programming in neonatal monocytes. Premature switching to an adult-like metabolism could untimely enhance inflammatory responses and disrupt important myeloid differentiation, whereas microbial challenges accumulating during childhood seem to induce an essential gradual metabolic switch.

• Single cell transcriptomic landscape of pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia: dissection of transcriptional heterogeneity and B-cell developmental state

  Introduction: Genomic analyses of bulk ALL samples have improved our understanding of the genetic basis and risk stratification of B-ALL, but do not directly examine intratumor heterogeneity or enable inference of leukemia developmental state and cell of origin. Methods: We profiled 89 B-ALL samples by single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) (10X Genomics 5’v2) and compared them to a scRNA-seq reference map of normal human B-cell development. Results: Analysis of heterogeneity of inferred DNA copy number alterations at single cell level showed that aneuploid ALL with near haploidy and hyperdiploid harbor chromosomal losses or gains in all blasts, consistent with early, synchronous origin rather than sequential accumulation. Intra-sample heterogeneity was driven by five gene expression signatures: cell cycle, metabolism, differentiation, inflammation, refining leukemic subtyping. An atlas of B cell development was established to map B-ALL samples to specific developmental states. Hyperdiploid samples resembled pro-B cells, while MEF2D-r and TCF3::PBX1 showed high pre-B abundance. Patients with high early lymphoid abundance had poorer outcomes. Conclusions: Understanding variation in transcriptional programs and developmental states of B-ALL blasts by sc transcriptome refines existing clinical and genomic classifications and provides novel prognostic markers.

• Genome-wide DNA methylation sequencing identifies epigenetic perturbations in the upper airways under long-term exposure to moderate levels of ambient air pollution

  While the link between exposure to high levels of ambient particulate matter (PM) and increased incidences of respiratory and cardiovascular diseases is widely recognized, recent epidemiological studies have shown that low PM concentrations are equally associated with adverse health effects. As DNA methylation is one of the main mechanisms by which cells regulate and stabilize gene expression, changes in the methylome could constitute early indicators of dysregulated signaling pathways. So far, little is known about PM-associated DNA methylation changes in the upper airways, the first point of contact between airborne pollutants and the human body. Here, we focused on cells of the upper respiratory tract and assessed their genome-wide DNA methylation pattern to explore exposure-associated early regulatory changes. Using a mobile epidemiological laboratory, nasal lavage samples were collected from a cohort of 60 adults that lived in districts with records of low (Simmerath) or moderate (Stuttgart) PM10 levels in Germany. PM10 concentrations were verified by particle measurements on the days of the sample collection and genome-wide DNA methylation was determined by enzymatic methyl sequencing at single-base resolution. We identified 231 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) between moderately and lowly PM10 exposed individuals. A high proportion of DMRs overlapped with regulatory elements, and DMR target genes were involved in pathways regulating cellular redox homeostasis and immune response. In addition, we found distinct changes in DNA methylation of the HOXA gene cluster whose methylation levels have previously been linked to air pollution exposure but also to carcinogenesis in several instances. The findings of this study suggest that regulatory changes in upper airway cells occur at PM10 levels below current European thresholds, some of which may be involved in the development of air pollution-related diseases.

• RNA-seq of Liver Cancer

  The present series corresponds to 161 RNA-seq samples from tumors with matched WES or WGS. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for more than 90% of liver cancers, and is a major health problem. It is the 3rd cause of cancer-related mortality. Advances in genomic analyses have formed a comprehensive understanding of different underlying pathobiological layers resulting in hepatocarcinogenesis. Thus, the development of next-generation sequencing technologies has made it possible to generate more comprehensive catalogues of somatic alteration events (single nucleotide substitutions, structural variations, and epigenetic changes) in liver cancer genome than ever before.

• Analysis of the Elements Involved in the Enrichment of a Panel of Genomic Regions by Nanopore Sequencing Using Adaptive Sampling

  DNA sequencing using nanopore technologies with the affordable MinION device is useful for the identification and characterization of structural variants, long haplotypes, sequencing of repetitive regions and identification of epigenetic modifications. The main limitation of this approach is the low coverage obtained, which might be avoided by adaptive sampling, a computationally controlled method of enrichment for targeted genomic regions. This study dissects the factors involved in the enrichment by adaptive sampling of a panel of 18 human genome regions containing 20 genes implicated in breast cancer sequenced in 16 patients with familial breast cancer negative for NGS screening. An average coverage of 2.0x was obtained for the whole genome and 5.1x for selected regions. Sequencing time was the main factor improving coverage. The selection of long reads (>1 Kb) did not improve the enrichment. The length of the selected region, which in our study ranged from 126 to 565 Kb, did not play a significant role in enrichment. However, the region containing PMS2 showed significantly lower coverage, which could be explained by the high number of PMS2 pseudogenes (N = 14), which were also enriched. Our study shows new evidence of enrichment obtained by adaptive sampling in a panel of genomic regions and shows parameters, the relevance of sequencing time and the role of pseudogenes, that improve the enrichment yield with no library reloading or GPU use, data useful for a more efficient application of this procedure in future studies.

• High-resolution, patient-level dissection of IL-23 blockade in cutaneous psoriasis

  Psoriasis vulgaris and other chronic inflammatory diseases improve markedly with therapeutic blockade of IL-23 signaling in T cells, but the genetic mechanisms of response remain poorly understood. We single-cell transcriptomically profiled CD45+ immune cells isolated from lesional psoriatic skin before and after IL-23 blockade. In clinically responsive patients, a psoriatic transcriptional signature in skin-resident memory T cells was sharply attenuated. In contrast, poorly responsive patients were distinguished by enduring T17 cell activation, a mechanism distinct from alternative cytokine signaling or downstream resistance. Spatial transcriptomic analysis suggests that successful IL-23 blockade requires dampening of > 90% of IL-17-induced signaling in lymphocyte-adjacent keratinocytes, an unexpectedly high threshold. We also detected a subset of persistent, disease-specific T17 abnormalities in responsive patients, revealing an irreversible cell identity that may necessitate ongoing IL-23 inhibition. Collectively, our data establishes a patient-level paradigm for dissecting response to immunomodulatory treatments.

• Massively parallel functional dissection of schizophrenia associated non-coding genetic variants

  Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe mental disorder affecting 1% of the world population. SCZ is characterized by an underlying genetic architecture that is highly polygenic. Genome wide association studies have identified thousands of genetic variants that are statistically linked to the disease. However, the translation of these associations into insights on the pathomechanisms has been challenging because the causal genetic variants, their molecular function, and their target genes remain largely unknown. To address these questions, we combined induced pluripotent stem cell technology with a massively parallel variant annotation pipeline (MVAP) to functionally characterize 35,000 SCZ associated non-coding genetic variants. This approach identified a set of 620 (1.7%) single nucleotide polymorphisms as functional on the molecular level in a highly cell type and condition specific fashion. Subsequent multi-modal integration of epigenomic data combined with CRISPR screening in human neurons enabled us to systematically translate SCZ variant associations into target genes, biological processes, and ultimately alterations of neuronal physiology. These results provide a new high-resolution map of functional variant-gene combinations and offer comprehensive biological insights into the developmental context and stimulus dependent molecular processes modulated by SCZ genetic variation beyond statistical association.

• An MTOR mutation hitchhikes through renal embryogenesis, driving multifocal, multiphenotypic tumours - WGS

  Embryogenesis is a vulnerable time. Mutations in developmental cells can result in the seeding of cells predisposed to disease within mature organs, creating a field effect. We characterise an embryonic cancer mutation that drives multifocal, multiphenotypic renal tumours in a 14-year-old girl. Their shared MTOR mutation, absent from normal tissues, increases protein flexibility which enables a FAT domain hinge to dramatically increase mTORC1 activity. Developmental mutations, not usually detected in traditional genetic screening, have vital clinical importance in guiding prognosis, targeted treatment, and family screening decisions for paediatric tumours.

• Low-coverage whole genome sequencing for a highly selective cohort of severe COVID-19 patients

  Background Despite advances in identification of genetic markers associated to severe COVID-19, the full genetic characterisation of the disease remains elusive. Imputation of low-coverage whole genome sequencing (lcWGS) has emerged as a competitive method to study such disease-related genetic markers as they enable genotyping of most common genetic variants used for genome wide association studies. This study aims at exploring the potential use of imputation in lcWGS for a highly selected severe COVID-19 patient cohort. Findings We generated an imputed dataset of 79 variant call format (VCF) patient files using the GLIMPSE1 tool, each containing, on average, 9.5 million single nucleotide variants. The validation assessment of imputation accuracy yielded a squared Pearson correlation of approximately 0.97 across sequencing platforms, showing that GLIMPSE1 can be used to confidently impute variants with minor allele frequency up to approximately 2% in Spanish ancestry individuals. We conducted a comprehensive analysis on the patient cohort, examining hospitalisation and intensive care utilisation, sex and age-based differences, and clinical phenotypes using a standardised set of medical terms specifically developed to characterise severe COVID-19 symptoms for this cohort. Conclusion This dataset highlights the utility and accuracy of lcWGS imputation in the study of COVID-19 severity, setting a precedent for other applications in resource-constrained environments. The methods and findings presented here may be leveraged in future genomic projects, providing vital insights for health challenges like COVID-19.

• Low-coverage whole genome sequencing for a highly selective cohort of severe COVID-19 patients

  We generated a dataset consisting of 79 VCF files, and respective FASTQ and CRAM files, methodically generated using the GLIMPSE1 imputation algorithm leveraging the 1000 Genomes Project Phase 3 dataset as the reference panel of haplotypes. In total this dataset is composed of approximately 325 GB of FASTQ data, 156 GB of CRAM data, and 6 GB of VCF data. Our samples were specifically derived from sequenced DNA from a highly selective cohort of patients, mostly comprised of Iberian Populations in Spain (IBS) individuals but also containing some individuals with other genetic backgrounds, who presented severe COVID-19 symptoms during the initial wave of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in Madrid, Spain. On average, each VCF file in this rich dataset contains 9.49 million high-confidence single nucleotide variants [95%CI: 9.37 million - 9.61 million].

• The Precision Medicine in Liver Cancer across an Asia-pacific NETwork (PLANET)

  Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the 2nd most important cause of cancer deaths in the world. The outcomes of treatment in HCC are poor compared to other common cancers because there are no good systemic therapy drugs. We designed a prospective study that will involve 5 different sites within the established Asia-Pacific Hepatocellular Carcinoma Trials Group to study both the genetics as well as immune profiles of HCC in different ethnicities. In this study, patients will be followed-up and at recurrence the tissues to understand the evolution of disease progression. Here, we presented both the genomic (DNA) and phenotypic (RNA) evolution for the first batch of 56 patients. The detailed findings will be listed in the corresponding publication soon.

• MutWP1: CRUK Grand Challenge Mutographs of Cancer: Kidney (1)

  The Mutographs project aims to advance our understanding of the causes of cancer through studies of mutational signatures. Led by Mike Stratton, together with Paul Brennan, Ludmil Alexandrov, Allan Balmain, David Phillips and Peter Campbell, this large-scale international research endeavour was awarded a Cancer Research UK Grand Challenge. Different patterns of somatic mutation are generated by the different environmental, lifestyle and genetic factors that cause cancer, many of them are still unknown. Within Mutographs, the International Agency for Research on Cancer is coordinating the recruitment of 5000 individuals with cancer (colorectal, renal, pancreatic, oesophageal adenocarcinoma or oesophageal squamous cancers) across 5 continents to explore whether different mutational signatures explain marked variation in incidence. In brief, through an international network of collaborators around the world, biological materials are collected, along with demographic, histological, clinical and questionnaire data. Whole genome sequences of tumour-germline DNA pairs are generated at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute. Somatic mutational signatures are subsequently extracted by non-negative matrix factorisation methods and correlated with risk factors data. Through an enhanced understanding of cancer aetiology, Mutographs unprecedented effort is anticipated to outline modifiable risk factors, lead to new approaches to prevent cancer, and provide opportunities to empower early detection, refine high-risk groups and contribute to further therapeutic development.

• Target resequencing of LQTS-related 100 genes in Japanese patients

  Some of the fatal familial arrhythmias cause sudden death in seemingly healthy individuals. It is not easy to make a pre-symptomatic diagnosis of these diseases using only clinical examinations such as an electrocardiogram. The purpose of this study is to elucidate the cause of lethal arrhythmia and/or the genetic factors that influence its susceptibility, thereby enabling early diagnosis and selection of effective treatment methods, and preventing sudden death. The most important purpose of this study is to identify the sites of genetic abnormalities and disease-related genes in pre-symptomatic cases. If a genetic abnormality is found, it is expected that the functional abnormality can be evaluated and appropriate measures to prevent sudden death can be taken.

• High-coverage whole-genome sequencing reveals structural variations in triple-negative breast cancer

  Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells do not express estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors or human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). Currently, apart from poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, there are few effective therapeutic options for this cancer type. Here, we present a comprehensive characterization of genetic alterations in TNBC via high-coverage whole-genome sequencing along with transcriptomic and whole-exome sequencing. Silencing of BRCA1 gene impaired the homologous recombination (HR) pathway in a subset of TNBC, which exhibited similar phenotypes with tumors with BRCA1 mutations; they harbored many structural variations (SVs) with relative enrichment for tandem duplication. Clonal analysis suggested that TP53 mutations and methylation of CpG dinucleotides in the BRCA1 promoter were the early events of carcinogenesis. SVs were associated with driver oncogenic events such as amplification of MYC, NOTCH2 or NOTCH3 and impacted tumor suppressor genes including RB1, PTEN and KMT2C. We also identified a variety of oncogenes that could transform 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells, suggesting that individual TNBC tumors may undergo a unique driver event that can be targetable. Thus, we revealed several features of TNBC that had important clinical implications.

• Whole-genome analysis of a healthy man with common trichromatic vision

  Humans have a diversity of color vision that cannot be divided into normal and abnormal. As a first step to elucidate the genetic basis that contributes to the diversity of human color vision, we conducted a whole-genome analysis using DNA extracted from the saliva of a healthy man with common trichromatic vision. Further comparison with the genomes of people with various types of color vision may provide a model study of human nature that cannot be divided into normal and abnormal.

• Identification of RNA biomarkers in Parkinson's disease patients

  Parkinson?s disease (PD) is an age-related, chronic and progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a loss of dopaminergic neurons and subsequent motor symptoms. These overt motor symptoms are often preceded by prodromal non-motor symptoms. Though a number of genetic and environmental factors have been identified to play a role in PD, more exact methods for both diagnosing and assessing prognosis are yet to be discovered. By analyzing the transcriptome of early-stage PD patients, this study aims to identify genes (including important non-coding RNAs) and pathways altered at disease onset that may be used as novel biomarkers for PD diagnosis as well as potential new drug targets. The study consists of three main sources of data: first year blood transcriptomes, second year blood transcriptome and matched neural stem cell (NSC)/neuron transcriptomes. All transcriptome libraries were synthesized and sequenced using no-amplification non-tagging cap analysis of gene expression (nAnT-iCAGE) on the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. Resulting data was mapped to the human genome annotation (hg38), processed CAGE tags were clustered ready for differential expression analyses. First year blood sequencing consisted of 22 PD patients and 10 healthy controls across four lanes. In the second year, a further four lanes were sequenced containing 17 PD patients (12 patients from the first year and 5 new patients) along with 10 healthy controls and 5 first year blood samples matching the new second year patients.

• Whole-exome sequencing of MDS and related myeloid neoplasms

  Myelodysplastic syndromes(MDS) and related myeloid neoplasms (myelodysplasia) are heterogenous group of myeloid neoplasms characterized by deregulated blood cell production with evidence of myeloid dysplasia. Previously, frequent mutations in genes on RNA splicing machinery and DNA methylation pathway have been identified. However, comprehensive analysis of genetic alterations have not performed on a large cohort of these diseases. Therefore, in this study, we performed whole-exome sequencing of MDS and related myeloid neoplasms.

• Prevalence and Clinical Characteristics of hearing loss caused by MYH14 mutation

  Mutations in MYH14 are reported to cause autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hereditary hearing loss (ADNSHL), and 35 variants have been reported to cause hearing loss in various ethnic groups, but the information on prevalence as well as clinical features are fragmented. In this study, genetic screening for MYH14 variants was carried out using a large series of Japanese hearing loss patients to reveal the information. Massively parallel DNA sequencing of 68 target candidate genes was utilized in 8074 (including 1336 ADNSHL) unrelated Japanese hearing loss patients (probands) to identify genomic variations responsible for hearing loss. We identified 20 patients with 14 mutations from 15 pedigrees. The prevalence was proved to be 0.19% (15/8074) among hearing loss patients, and 1.12% (15/1336) among ADNSHL patients. The 12 mutations out of 14 mutations identified were novel. The patients typically showed late onset, slowly progressive modelate flat-type hearing loss. The clinical information revealed by the present study would contribute to further diagnosis and management of MYH14-associated hearing loss.

• CRISPR-screening identifies mechanisms of resistance to KRASG12C and SHP2 inhibitor combinations in non-small cell lung cancer

  Although KRASG12C inhibitors show clinical activity in patients with KRAS G12C mutated NSCLC and other solid tumor malignancies, response is limited by multiple mechanisms of resistance. The KRASG12C inhibitor JDQ443 shows enhanced preclinical antitumor activity combined with the SHP2 inhibitor TNO155, and the combination is currently under clinical evaluation. To identify rational combination strategies that could help overcome or prevent some types of resistance, we evaluated the duration of tumor responses to JDQ443 �� TNO155, alone or combined with the PI3K�� inhibitor alpelisib and/or the CDK4/6 inhibitor ribociclib, in xenograft models derived from a KRASG12C-mutant NSCLC line and investigated the genetic mechanisms associated with loss of response to combined KRASG12C/SHP2 inhibition.

• Rapid detection of expanded short tandem repeats in personal genomics using hybrid sequencing.

  Long expansions of short tandem repeats (STRs); i.e., DNA repeats of 2-6 nucleotides, are associated with some genetic diseases. Cost-efficient high throughput sequencing can quickly produce billions of short reads that would be useful for uncovering disease-associated STRs. However, enumerating STRs in short reads remains largely unexplored because of the difficulty in elucidating STRs much longer than 100 bp, the typical length of short reads. We propose ab initio procedures for sensing and locating long STRs promptly by utilizing the frequency distribution of all STRs and paired-end read information. We validated the reproducibility of this method using biological replicates and used it to locate an STR associated with a brain disease (SCA31). Subsequently, we sequenced this STR site in eleven SCA31 samples using SMRT? sequencing (Pacific Biosciences), determined 2.3-3.1 kb sequences at nucleotide resolution, and revealed that (TGGAA)- and (TAAAATAGAA)-repeat expansions determined the instability of the repeat expansions associated with SCA31. Our method could also identify common STRs, (AAAG)- and (AAAAG)-repeat expansions, which are remarkably expanded at four positions in an SCA31 sample. This is the first proposed method for rapidly finding disease-associated long STRs in personal genomes using hybrid sequencing of short and long reads.

• POU4F3 mutation screening in Japanese hearing loss patients.

  A variant in a transcription factor gene, POU4F3, is responsible for autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hereditary hearing loss, DFNA15. To date, 14 variants, including a whole deletion of POU4F3, have been reported to cause HL in various ethnic groups. In the present study, genetic screening for POU4F3 variants was carried out for a large series of Japanese hearing loss (HL) patients to clarify the prevalence and clinical characteristics of DFNA15 in the Japanese population. Massively parallel DNA sequencing of 68 target candidate genes was utilized in 2,549 unrelated Japanese HL patients (probands) to identify genomic variations responsible for HL. The detailed clinical features in patients with POU4F3 variants were collected from medical charts and analyzed. Novel 12 POU4F3 likely pathogenic variants (six missense variants, three frameshift variants, and three nonsense variants) were successfully identified in 15 probands (2.5%) among 602 families exhibiting autosomal dominant HL, whereas no variants were detected in the other 1,947 probands with autosomal recessive or inheritance pattern unknown HL. To obtain the audiovestibular configuration of the patients harboring POU4F3 variants, we collected audiograms and vestibular symptoms of the probands and their affected family members. Audiovestibular phenotypes in a total of 24 individuals from the 15 families possessing variants were characterized by progressive HL, with a large variation in the onset age and severity with or without vestibular symptoms observed. Pure-tone audiograms indicated the most prevalent configuration as mid-frequency HL type followed by high-frequency HL type, with asymmetry observed in approximately 20% of affected individuals. Analysis of the relationship between age and pure-tone average suggested that individuals with truncating variants showed earlier onset and slower progression of HL than did those with non-truncating variants. The present study showed that variants in POU4F3 were a common cause of autosomal dominant HL.
