• Comprehensive molecular phenotyping of ARID1A-deficient gastric cancer reveals pervasive epigenomic reprogramming and therapeutic opportunities

  This dataset includes paired tumor-blood whole exome sequencing data for 209 gastric cancer (GC) patients, along with whole transcriptome sequencing data for 125 GC samples. Whole exome sequencing was conducted using Agilent SureSelect Human All Exon V6 kits. For RNA sequencing, total RNA was isolated using the RNeasy Mini Kit, and libraries were prepared with the TruSeq Stranded Total RNA with Ribo-Zero Gold protocol (Illumina). Aligned BAM files for both exome and RNAseq data are included in this dataset.

• Rearrangements of Viral and Human Genomes at Human Papillomavirus Integration Events and Their Allele-Specific Impacts on Cancer Genome Regulation

  We discovered genomic and epigenomic dysregulation originating at sites of human papillomavirus (HPV) integration following the Oxford Nanopore long-read analysis of 72 cervical cancer genomes. The integration events had allele-specific effects on the genome, methylome, and transcriptome, which sometimes resulted in the activation of cancer genes. We also examined the 72 samples using Illumina short-read analysis in phs000528.

• Luminal breast epithelial cells from wildtype and BRCA mutation carriers harbor copy number alterations commonly associated with breast cancer

  Cancer-associated mutations have been documented in normal tissues, but the prevalence and nature of somatic copy number alterations and their role in tumor initiation and evolution is not well understood. Here, using single cell DNA sequencing, we describe the landscape of CNA variants in >48,000 breast epithelial cells from women with normal or high risk of developing breast cancer. Individual cells with one or two of a specific subset of CNAs (e.g. 1q gain and 16q, 22q, 7q, and 10q loss) are detectable in almost all breast tissues and, in those from BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations carriers, occurs prior to loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of the wildtype alleles. These CNAs, which are among the most common associated with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and malignant breast tumors, are enriched almost exclusively in luminal cells and are generally absent from basal myoepithelial cells. Allele-specific analysis of the enriched CNAs reveals that each allele was independently altered, demonstrating convergent evolution of these CNAs in an individual breast. Tissues from BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation carriers contained a small percentage of cells with extreme aneuploidy, featuring loss of TP53, LOH of BRCA1 or BRCA2, and multiple breast cancer-associated CNAs in addition to one or more of the common CNAs in 1q, 10q or 16q. Notably, cells with intermediate levels of CNAs were not detected, arguing against a stepwise gradual accumulation of CNAs. Overall, our findings demonstrate that chromosomal alterations in normal breast epithelium including from high risk women, link early stage CNAs to clonally expanded tumor genomes .

• Loss of SDHB promotes dysregulated iron homeostasis, oxidative stress and sensitivity to ascorbate

  Succinate dehydrogenase is a key enzyme in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and the electron transport chain. All four subunits of succinate dehydrogenase are tumor suppressor genes predisposing to paraganglioma, but only mutations in the SDHB subunit are associated with increased risk of metastasis. Here we generated an Sdhd knockout chromaffin cell line and compared it to Sdhb-deficient cells. Both cell types exhibited similar SDH loss of function, metabolic adaptation, and succinate accumulation. In contrast, Sdhb-/- cells showed hallmarks of mesenchymal transition associated with increased DNA hypermethylation and a stronger pseudo-hypoxic phenotype compared to Sdhd-/- cells. Loss of SDHB specifically led to increased oxidative stress associated with dysregulated iron and copper homeostasis in the absence of NRF2 activation. High-dose ascorbate exacerbated the increase in mitochondrial reactive oxygen species, leading to cell death in Sdhb-/- cells. These data establish a mechanism linking oxidative stress to iron homeostasis that specifically occurs in SDHB deficient cells and may promote metastasis. They also highlight high-dose ascorbate as a promising therapeutic strategy for SDHB-related cancers.

• Methylation sequencing dataset for "Molecular counting enables accurate and precise quantification of methylated ctDNA"

  Methylation sequencing dataset for "Molecular counting enables accurate and precise quantification of methylated ctDNA." This dataset was created by running samples through Northstar Response, where bisulfite converted samples are amplified in a multiplex PCR targeting more than 500 genomic regions. Samples in this dataset include contrived samples made from 84 different tumors DNA, each mixed with their matched buffy coat DNA at varying ratios, as well as cfDNA and buffy coat DNA samples collected from 67 cancer patients undergoing treatment. All samples were sequenced on Illumina NextSeq 2000 with single end 100 cycle sequencing; files are in fastq.gz format.

• Targeted panel somatic variant sequencing dataset for "Molecular counting enables accurate and precise quantification of methylated ctDNA"

  Targeted panel somatic variant sequencing dataset for "Molecular counting enables accurate and precise quantification of methylated ctDNA." This dataset was created by running 60 cfDNA samples from patients with metastatic cancer to the lung through a research-use, tumor-naive, targeted-panel assay for measuring somatic mutations across a panel of 80 genes. All samples were sequenced on Illumina NextSeq 2000 with 150x2 paired end sequencing; files are in fastq.gz format. For the original study, the variant allele fractions of these somatic mutations were compared with the Tumor Methylation Scores calculated from Northstar Response in the same samples.

• FOCUS Trial

  We studied patients with advanced colorectal cancer, starting treatment with non-curative intent. 2135 unpretreated patients were randomly assigned to three treatment strategies in the ratio 1:1:1. Strategy A (control group) was single-agent fl uorouracil (given with levofolinate over 48 h every 2 weeks) until failure, then single-agent irinotecan. Strategy B was fl uorouracil until failure, then combination chemotherapy. Strategy C was combination chemotherapy from the outset.

• Luminal progenitor cell line iHBEC(CD117)

  Basal-like breast cancer originates in luminal progenitors, frequently with an altered PI3K pathway, and focally in close association with genetically altered myoepithelial cells at the site of tumor initiation. The exact trajectory behind this bi-lineage phenomenon remains poorly understood. Here we used a breast cancer relevant transduction protocol including hTERT, shp16, shp53, and PIK3CA(H1047R) to immortalize FACS isolated luminal cells, and we identified a candidate multipotent progenitor. We found that the apparent luminal phenotype of these oncogene transduced progenitors was metastable giving rise to basal-like cells dependent on culture conditions. After culturing the cells for more than 60 passages, cells were subjected to scRNA-seq as well as bulk RNA sequencing of two subpopulations (CD271+ and CD271-).

• cfDNA methylation profiling on longitudinally collected blood plasma of patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma

  Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is an aggressive cancer characterized by a high risk of relapse post-surgery. Analyzing cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from blood plasma emerges as a promising avenue for therapy response monitoring. This study aims to evaluate the cost-effective and genome-wide cell-free reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (cfRRBS) method combined with computational deconvolution for effective disease monitoring in EAC patients.
