• Cell Type-Specific and Disease-Associated eQTL in the Human Lung

  This study was conducted to investigate the genetic control of gene expression in a cell-type and context-specific manner in the human lung. We performed single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) of lung tissue from 66 Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) cases and 48 unaffected donors. Employing a pseudo-bulk approach, we mapped expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) across 38 cell types. The scRNA-seq data presented here include previously published (PMID 34262047) and unpublished samples. ILD tissue samples were obtained from lungs removed at the time of lung transplantation at either Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) or the Norton Thoracic Institute (NTI). Control tissue samples were obtained from lungs declined for organ donation either at the Donor Network of Arizona (DNA) or VUMC. The self-reported ethnicities of donors were 66.7% European, 9.6% African American, 17.5% not available (N/A), and 6.1% other. The smoking history includes 46.5% ever smoker, 29.8% never smoker, 23.7% N/A. For genotyping, flash-frozen tissue in DNA/RNA shield was homogenized via a bullet blender. Genomic DNA was extracted using Zymo Quick DNA/RNA microprep plus kit. Library preparation and low-pass Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) were carried out at TGen or by Gencove Inc. At TGen, libraries were prepared using PCR-free Watchmaker kits (Watchmaker Genomics) with 200 ng input. Genomes were sequenced on NovaSeq at low coverage (typically 0.4–1x). The resulting sequence data were processed and imputed using Gencove's imputation platform.

• Risk Factors for Asymptomatic Diverticulosis

  Data for this analysis came from a prospective study of colonic diverticulosis at the University of North Carolina Hospital in Chapel Hill, North Carolina (NIH R01DK094738). This is a case-control genetic and transcriptomic study to identify the genetic and cellular determinants underlying colonic diverticulosis and the relationship with other gastrointestinal disorders. The study inclusion and exclusion are described below. DNA and RNA sequencing were performed on colonic tissue from 404 patients with (N=172) and without (N=232) diverticulosis. We assessed variation in the transcriptome associated with diverticulosis and integrated this variation with human intestine single-cell RNA-seq data. We integrated our expression quantitative trait loci with GWAS using Mendelian Randomization. A polygenic risk score analysis examined associations between severity of diverticulosis and other gastrointestinal disorders. We identified 38 genes with differential expression and 17 genes with varied transcript usage linked to diverticulosis. Our results suggest tissue remodeling as a primary mechanism for diverticula formation. The presence of diverticulosis was linked to stromal and epithelial cells in the colon including endothelial cells, myofibroblasts, fibroblasts, goblet, tuft, enterocytes, neurons, and glia. MR highlighted five genes including CCN3, CRISPLD2, ENTPD7, PHGR1, and TNFSF13. In diverticulosis cases, ENTPD7 upregulation was confirmed. A greater burden of diverticula was positively correlated with genetic predisposition to diverticulitis. The data related to the study including total RNA-Seq, SNP array and imputed genotypes will be available through dbGaP.

• Space Associated Stem Cell Hallmarks of Aging in Astronauts

  This study examined the effects of the stress of space, specifically low earth orbit, on hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) that maintain lifelong hematopoiesis and immune responses. Enriched CD34+ HSPCs were derived from 7 astronauts before, during and after 10 and 21-day ISS missions on the International Space Station. The samples were used as input to whole transcriptome sequencing by bulk RNA-Seq performed at The Scripps Research Institute Next Generation Sequencing Core on Illumina NextSeq 2000 sequencer and single cell RNA-Seq performed at The Salk Institute for Biological Studies on Illumina NovaSeq X Plus sequencer. Subsequent expression, RNA editing, and retrotransposon analyses were performed to assess HSPC and immune subpopulation survival dynamics. Overall, these analyses revealed space-associated stem cell hallmarks of aging (SASHA), including spaceflight dependent alterations in HSPC survival and self-renewal, ADAR1, telomere maintenance, mobilization and cell cycle gene expression, combined with space-induced clonal hematopoietic mutations, APOBEC3C activation and retrotransposon deregulation to warrant countermeasure development to enable long-duration spaceflight. Post-spaceflight analysis revealed increased C-to-T and clonal hematopoiesis-associated mutations, repetitive element and base deaminase deregulation, decreased telomere maintenance gene expression, and decreased self-renewal capacity compared to ground controls. These results demonstrate the space-associated aging effects in HSPCs after month-long exposure to LEO, providing insights into utilizing the LEO environment to model space-accelerated aging and other age-related malignancies.

• BulkRNAseq - Notch Signaling Maintains a Progenitor-Like Subclass of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

  To identify the Notch signaling components expressed in both the human cancer cells and mouse stromal cells that typically comprise PDX tumors, we performed bulk RNA sequencing. Our results demonstrate that a JAG1-NOTCH2 signaling axis within the human cancer cell population drives the Notch dependency in the super-responder models, with NOTCH2 serving as the functionally relevant receptor.

• RNAseq samples of patients with anti-PD-1 resistant HNSCC from a non-randomized, open-label phase 1b clinical trial

  Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is an effective treatment for a subset of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC); however, the majority remain refractory. In a nonrandomized, open-label Phase 1b clinical trial, participants with recurrent and/or metastatic (R/M) HNSCC who had progressed on ICB were treated with low-dose 5-azacytidine (5-aza) daily for either 5 or 10 days, in combination with durvalumab and tremelimumab. The primary objective was to determine the biologically effective dose of 5-aza. In this study, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed on baseline and on-treatment samples from eight participants, and transcriptomic changes were analyzed to assess the impact of low-dose 5-aza treatment.

• Transcriptomic analysis of the NA-PHER2 clinical trial

  We performed whole transcriptome RNA sequencing on serial tumour biopsies collected at baseline, Day 14, and after completion of all neoadjuvant therapy from the NA-PHER2 trial. Patients received neoadjuvant treatment with the combined regimen of trastuzumab, pertuzumab, palbociclib with or without addition of fulvestrant. Transcriptomic profiles were generated from 143 samples (Baseline n = 53, Day 14 n = 49, Surgery n = 41) corresponding to 53 of the 58 patients enrolled in NA-PHER2 trial (91.4%). RNA sequencing was performed on total RNA samples derived from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections. RNA-Seq libraries were produced using NEBNext® Ultra™ II Directional RNA Library Prep Kit. The capture was then performed on cDNA libraries with the Twist Human Core Exome Enrichment System according to supplier recommendations (Twist Bioscience). The obtained eluted-enriched DNA samples was then sequenced on an Illumina NovaSeq as paired-end 100bp reads. FASTQ files are provided.

• RNA-seq on patient-derived, stage II, CRC cell lines

  The gut microbiome is a key player in the immunomodulatory and pro-tumorigenic microenvironment in colorectal cancer (CRC). It is well established that Fusobacterium’s virulence factors are responsible for its pro-tumorigenic properties, however the role of its metabolic cross-talk with the tumor remains unexplored. Here we use in vitro, in vivo, and in silico methods to describe a novel microbe-host interaction keystone: formate. Omics data reveals molecular signatures, linking a metabolically driven CRC phenotype with Fusobacteria. We observed a metabolic shift towards increased F. nucleatum formate secretion in gut-on-chip model co-cultures with patient-derived CRC cells, along with an accelerated cancer glutamine metabolism. We show that high formate levels trigger AhR signaling, increase cancer stemness and cellular invasion. Finally, we observed an expansion of Th17 cells accompanying F. nucleatum-induced tumorigenesis. Moving beyond observational studies, we applied new experimental approaches for gaining ecosystem-level mechanistic understanding of F. nucleatum’s role in cancer pathogenesis.

• RNA sequencing on colonic biopsies from inflammatory bowel disease patients treated with vehicle control, MEK inhibitor, or infliximab

  This dataset consists of RNA sequencing data (FASTQs) from intestinal mucosal biopsies from 9 IBD patients. All patients endoscopically active disease and were not receiving immunosuppressive or biologic therapies. All biopsies (6 per donor) were collected from a single inflamed site. Biopsies were cultured for 18 hours at an air-liquid interface in media containing either DMSO (vehicle control), PD-0325901 (0.5uM) or infliximab (10ug/ml; MSD) - two biopsies per condition. Sequencing was performed on a NovaSeq 6000 (100bp, PE reads). After 18 hours, biopsies were harvested and snap frozen. After lysis, RNA was extracted using an AllPrep DNA/RNA Mini Kit (Qiagen). Sequencing libraries were prepared from 10ng RNA using the SMARTer Stranded Total RNA-Seq Kit v2 - Pico Input Mammalian (Takara) following the manufacturer’s instructions. The quality and molarity of all libraries was assessed using a BioAnalyzer 2100 and the libraries were sequenced on a NovaSeq 6000 (100bp, PE reads).
