• Genomic landscape of aplastic anemia

  This study investigates the genomic landscape of aplastic anemia using complementary sequencing approaches. Single-cell DNA and protein profiling were performed using the Mission Bio Tapestri platform to characterize clonal structure and immunophenotypic features. Long-read whole-genome sequencing (PacBio) and single-cell whole-genome sequencing (BioSkryb) were also generated to capture structural variants and genome-wide clonal architecture. Together, these datasets aim to elucidate mutational processes and clonal evolution underlying aplastic anemia.

• Identification of Germline Monoallelic Mutations in IKZF2 in Patients with Immune Dysregulation.

  Helios, encoded by IKZF2, is a member of the Ikaros family of transcription factors with pivotal roles in T-follicular helper, NK- and T-regulatory cell physiology. Somatic IKZF2 mutations are frequently found in lymphoid malignancies. Although germline mutations in IKZF1 and IKZF3, encoding Ikaros and Aiolos, have recently been identified in patients with phenotypically similar immunodeficiency syndromes, the effect of germline mutations in IKZF2 on human hematopoiesis and immunity remains enigmatic. We identified germline IKZF2 mutations (one nonsense (p.R291X)- and 4 distinct missense variants) in six patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, immune thrombocytopenia or EBV-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Patients exhibited hypogammaglobulinemia, decreased number of T-follicular helper and NKcells. Single-cell RNA sequencing of PBMCs from the patient carrying the R291X variant revealed upregulation of pro-inflammatory genes associated with T-cell receptor activation and T-cell exhaustion. Functional assays revealed the inability of HeliosR291X to homodimerize and bind target DNA as dimers. Moreover, proteomic analysis by proximity-dependent Biotin Identification revealed aberrant interaction of 3/5 Helios mutants with core components of the NuRD complex conveying HELIOS mediated epigenetic and transcriptional dysregulation.

• Coding and small non-coding transcriptional landscape of tuberous sclerosis complex cortical tubers: implications for pathophysiology and treatment

  Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is a rare genetic disorder that results from a mutation in the TSC1 or TSC2 genes leading to constitutive activation of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). TSC is associated with autism, intellectual disability and severe epilepsy. Cortical tubers are believed to represent the neuropathological substrates of these disabling manifestations in TSC. In the presented study we used high-throughput RNA sequencing in combination with systems-based computational approaches to investigate the complexity of the TSC molecular network. Overall we detected 438 differentially expressed genes and 991 differentially expressed small non-coding RNAs in cortical tubers compared to autopsy control brain tissue. We observed increased expression of genes associated with inflammatory, innate and adaptive immune responses. In contrast, we observed a down-regulation of genes associated with neurogenesis and glutamate receptor signaling. MicroRNAs represented the largest class of over-expressed small non-coding RNA species in tubers. In particular, our analysis revealed that the miR-34 family (including miR-34a, miR-34b and miR-34c) was significantly over-expressed. Functional studies demonstrated the ability of miR-34b to modulate neurite outgrowth in mouse primary hippocampal neuronal cultures. This study provides new insights into the TSC transcriptomic network along with the identification of potential new treatment targets.

• Single cell RNA sequencing of peripheral blood HSPC from patients with sickle cell anemia and healthy donors

  Neutrophils and monocytes are critical contributors to the pathophysiology of sickle cell anemia (SCA) and are persistently elevated in patients' circulation. While chronic hemolysis has been implicated in this leukocytosis, the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Our data show a myeloid-skewed transcriptional signature in early progenitor populations, including multipotent progenitors (MPPs) and hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Notably, we identify upregulation of the type I interferon signaling pathway in HSPCs as a key driver of early myeloid programming in SCA.

• Celiac disease-specific intestinal T cells analyzed with HLA-class II tetramers, RNA-seq and mass cytometry have a narrow, autoimmune-associated phenotype

  Celiac disease (CD) is an HLA-DQ2/8-associated autoimmune enteropathy driven by activation of gluten-specific CD4+ T lymphocytes upon gluten consumption. Much less is known about the phenotype and function of these cells or their correlation, if any, to disease-relevant cells in other autoimmune disorders. Here we use mass cytometry and RNA seq to show that gluten-specific blood and gut T cells occupy a small and phenotypically distinct T-cell subset.

• Study of the rare and low frequency variants in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean population

  The Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean (SLSJ) region is located in northeastern Quebec and is known for its unique demographic history and founder effect. Since founder populations are enriched with population-specific variants, we characterized the variants distribution in SLSJ and compared it with four European populations (Finnish, Sweden, United Kingdom and France), of which the Finnish population is another founder population. Targeted sequencing of the coding and non-coding immune regulatory regions of the SLSJ asthma familial cohort and the four European populations were performed. Rare and low-frequency coding and noncoding regulatory variants identified in the SLSJ population were then investigated for variant- and gene-level associations with asthma and allergy related-traits (eosinophil percentage, immunoglobulin (Ig)E levels and lung function). Our data showed that (1) rare or deleterious variants were not enriched in the two founder populations as compared to the three non-founder European populations; (2) a larger proportion of founder population-specific variants occurred with higher frequencies; and (3) low-frequency variants appeared to be more deleterious. Furthermore, a rare variant, rs1386931, located in the 3’UTR of CXCR6 and intron of FYCO1 was found to be associated with eosinophil percentage. Gene-based analyses identified NRP2, MRPL44 and SERPINE2 to be associated with various asthma and allergy related traits. Our study demonstrated the usefulness of using a founder population to identify new genes associated with asthma and allergy-related traits; thus better understand the genes and pathways implicated in pathophysiology.

• Negligible impact on missing heritability of autoimmune-locus rare coding-region variants

  Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have identified common variants of modest effect size at hundreds of loci for common autoimmune diseases - however a substantial fraction of heritability remains unexplained, and to which rare variants may contribute. To discover rare variants and test them for association with a phenotype, the majority of studies re-sequence a small initial sample size and then genotype the discovered variants in a larger sample set. This approach will fail to analyse a large fraction of the rare variants present in the entire sample set. Here we perform simultaneous amplicon sequencing-based variant discovery and genotyping for coding exons of 25 GWAS risk genes in 41,911 white-European origin UK subjects comprising 24,892 subjects with six autoimmune disease phenotypes and 17,019 controls, and show that rare coding-region variants at known loci play a negligible role in common autoimmune disease susceptibility. These results do not support the rare variant - synthetic genome-wide association hypothesis. Many known autoimmune disease risk loci contain multiple independent common and low frequency variant association signals, and so genes in these loci are a priori stronger candidates to harbor rare coding-region variants than other genes. Our data suggest that the missing heritability for common autoimmune diseases may not lie in the rare coding-region variant portion of the allelic spectrum, but perhaps as others have proposed in very many common variant signals of weak effect.

• CLUSTER RNAseq Study of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis patients in methotrexate cohort

  CLUSTER aims to discover novel disease mechanisms and biomarkers in children suffering from Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Currently, little is known about the pathological disease mechanisms of JIA and there are no validated tools capable of predicting response or non-response to treatment. The study aims to identify biomarkers for treatment response using RNAseq technology. The samples used in this study comes from blood samples that were collected prior to patients receiving methotrexate treatment (naive). These samples were then processed for PBMC isolation followed by sorting cells into 4 different immune cell types. All of these samples were then sequenced by NovaSeq6000.

• Novel immunodeficiency caused by homozygous mutations of SLC19A1

  The male proband suffered from infancy oral lesions, recurrent fever, diarrhea, vomiting, atopic dermatitis, dark discoloration patches on his skin and lip fissures; he suffered from anemia (megaloblastic), thrombocytopenia, hypogammaglobulinemia and lymphopenia; his growth and development are delayed. Whole exome sequencing identified only one variant predicted to have high impact and to potentially explain the patient’s phenotype, a homozygous missense chr21:46950793:C:T (hg19) SLC19A1 NM_194255:c.1042G>A (p.G348R). Sanger sequencing and segregation analysis confirmed the presence of the homozygous SLC19A1 c.1042G>A (G348R) missense variant in the proband, with a heterozygous state in his family. The same homozygous SLC19A1 variant was identified in a distantly-related male patient with a similar phenotype presentation, while his healthy family members were heterozygous. SLC19A1 is a folate transporter, and thus folic acid supplementation was performed for the proband: platelet counts normalized rapidly and anemia improved; hair and skin discoloration, mouth lesions and chronic diarrhea improved. In contrast, neurological and developmental issues remained unchanged and treatment had only a partial effect on the immune system. This further confirmed the causal role of SLC19A1 for the proband's condition.

• Chromosome contacts in activated T cells identify autoimmune disease-candidate genes

  Autoimmune disease-associated DNA variants are preferentially found in regions with putative regulatory function in immune cells, particularly CD4+ T cells. Linking such regulatory elements to gene promoters in disease-relevant cells and contexts is essential to identify disease candidate genes. Here we show that the activation of CD4+ T cells invokes changes in the activity of regulatory elements and transcription of RNAs that correspond to changes in the expression of their interacting genes identified by promoter capture Hi-C (PCHi-C).

• An Empirical Approach Leveraging Tumorgrafts to Dissect the Tumor Microenvironment in Renal Cell Carcinoma Identifies Missing Link to Prognostic Inflammatory Factors

  We undertook an empirical approach to dissect the tumor microenvironment by developing a bulk tumor dissection algorithm, DisHet, and leveraging RNA-Seq data of tumorgrafts (patient-derived tumors implanted in mice), in which only the tumor cell component expands. We found that approximately 65% of previously defined immune signature genes are not abundantly expressed in the Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) microenvironment, and we identified more than two times as many novel immune/stromal transcripts. By using refined immune/stroma-specific genes and genomics, electronic medical record data and imaging data of 1084 RCC patients, we discovered a highly-inflamed pan-RCC subtype enriched for Treg cells, NK cells, Th1 cells, neutrophils, macrophages, B cells, and CD8+ T cells. This inflamed subtype (IS) is enriched for aggressive RCCs, including BAP1-deficient clear-cell and type 2 papillary tumors. Interestingly, IS is correlated with systemic manifestations of inflammation in patients such as thrombocytosis and anemia, whose pathogenesis were poorly defined and have been predictors of poor prognosis in RCC. Indeed, we discovered that IS is a strong predictor of poor survival. Lastly, our analyses show that tumor cells may drive stromal immune response. Overall, these data provide a missing link between the tumor cells, the tumor microenvironment, and systemic factors.
