• Genomics and Epigenomics of the Elderly Response to Pneumococcal Vaccines

  Pneumococcal Vaccine Study: This is a study designed to develop a detailed transcriptional and cellular profile of the immune response to pneumococcal vaccination with conjugated and non-conjugated polysaccharide vaccines in the senescent immune system of older adults. In this study, 39 healthy adults ages 60 and older that have never received pneumococcal vaccination, have been randomized to receive Prevnar 13 (Pfizer), a conjugated 13-valent vaccine or Pneumovax 23 (Merck), a non-conjugated 23-valent vaccine. Four (4) study visits occurred over 70 days at Day -7 (baseline), day 1, day 10 and day 60 (± 5d) post vaccination.Bulk RNA-sequencing data are available on the 4 time points for 31 of the participants and 1 replicate. ATAC-Doublet Detector Study: We generated single nucleus ATAC-seq (snATAC-seq) data from PBMCs of 2 baseline blood samples from the pneumococcal study. Generated data was then used to benchmark a novel computational method for detecting multiplets in snATAC-seq data, namely, AMULET (https://github.com/UcarLab/AMULET). Multiplets confound downstream analyses by introducing combined epigenomic profiles from 2 or more cells/nuclei. AMULET detects multiplets by using unique snATAC-seq data features that allow it to reliably use read counts to detect multiplets for their removal from data analyses.

• Multimodal Epigenetic Sequencing Analysis (MESA) of Cell-free DNA for Non-invasive Cancer Detection

  Multimodal characterization of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in the blood can enable the sensitive and non-invasive detection of human cancers but remains technically challenging and costly. Here, we developed Multimodal Epigenetic Sequencing Analysis (MESA), a flexible and sensitive method of capturing and integrating multimodal epigenetic information of cfDNA using a single experimental assay, i.e., non-disruptive bisulfite-free methylation sequencing, such as Enzymatic Methyl-seq (EM-seq) and TET-assisted pyridine borane sequencing (TAPS). MESA can simultaneously infer cfDNA methylation, nucleosome occupancy, nucleosome fuzziness, and fragmentation profile for regions surrounding the promoters and polyadenylation sites (PASs). MESA’s integrated analysis of multimodal epigenetic features significantly improved the performance of cancer detection models compared to the usage of any single modality alone. MESA captures additional and highly complementary epigenetic information from cfDNA without additional experimental assays, highlighting the importance and clinical prospect of using multimodal epigenetic features for non-invasive cancer detection

• NCI Laboratory of Translational Genomics (LTG) Human Pancreas QTL study

  We created a human histologically normal pancreas eQTL resource using 91 fresh frozen tissue samples from patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (Mayo Clinic and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center) or from organ donors without a history of pancreatic cancer (Penn State University) by RNA-Sequencing. Genome wide genotyping was done using blood derived DNA samples or normal derived tissue samples. An average of ~369,4 million reads (paired end, stranded, 101 bp) and 724981 genotypes (per sample) were generated.

• Avelumab or M7824 for People with Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis

  This submission includes genomic data derived from the study of clinical samples from two different phase II trials. These trials evaluated the clinical efficacy and safety of avelumab or M7824 in the treatment of adults with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). Subjects with aggressive RRP were treated with three to six doses of avelumab or M7824. Pre-treatment or post-treatment snap frozen papilloma and normal mucosa samples were subjected to whole exome sequencing and bulk RNA-seq. A total of twenty subjects were enrolled and treated.

• Leveraging Extended Families for Cardiovascular Disease Genomic Discovery

  This study characterizes a large early onset atrial fibrillation family and identifies a rare causative mutation (R231H) in the KCNQ1 gene. The age of this mutation is ~5000 years, as estimated using IBD-coalescent methods. The geographic distribution and demographic history of the mutation is described. Induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes carrying the mutation have abbreviated action potential duration, indicating a gain-of-function. This data resource provides exome or whole genome sequencing data for six patients and RNA-seq data from the cardiomyocyte experiments.

• Single Nucleus Transcriptomes from the Ventral Midbrain of Opioid Overdose Cases and Controls

  We generated ventral midbrain single nuclei RNA-seq libraries for 95 brain donors, including 45 subjects with documented histories of opioid abuse and overdose, and 50 demographically-matched, opioid-free control subjects, collected from two geographically distinct regions within the U.S. (greater Detroit area, Michigan and Miami, Florida). Each sample included both substantia nigra and the adjacent ventral tegmental area. Nuclei were processed in pools of 3-4 brains using the 10X Chromium system followed by Illumina sequencing, read alignment and processing by 10X Cellranger.

• Single-cell analysis of upper airway cells reveals host-viral dynamics in influenza infected adults

  This observational study was designed to determine the cellular tropism of Influenza A and B Viruses (IAV, IBV) from samples taken from the upper respiratory tract collected during routine nasal washes during the 2017-2018 season. Using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) we sought to determine which cell types could be infected, what the cellular response was to infection in both infected and bystander cells, and to compare the intra/inter-host variability of IAV and IBV during a single season at a single healthcare provider location.

• Novel Approach to High-Throughput Identification and Characterization of Neoantigens

  This study focuses on the development of novel approach for the screening, identification and characterization of neoantigen-specific T-cell receptors (TCRs). The developed method consists of collecting targeted RNA-Seq from a T-cell specific gene panel via 3' end Illumina sequencing combined to Oxford Nanopore based full-length TCR sequencing post T-cell activation. The data generated during this study demonstrates feasibility of the approach on a Jurkat control cell line as well as T-cells isolated from the blood of 3 independent healthy donors.

• Protracted Neuronal Recruitment in the Temporal Lobe of Young Children

  This study describes a stream of migrating neurons directed to the human entorhinal cortex. This migration is among the most protracted in the developing human brain, with young neurons still arriving at 2-3 years of age. We did not observe a similar migratory process in the early postnatal macaque brain, which suggests that this migration may be uniquely delayed or extended into early postnatal human life. Using immunohistochemistry and single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq), we identified these late-arriving neurons as being mainly CGE-derived LAMP5+/RELN+ interneurons.

• Encompassing view of spatial and single-cell RNA-seq renews the role of the microvasculature in human atherosclerosis

  Atherosclerosis is a pervasive contributor to ischemic heart disease and stroke. Despite the advance of lipid lowering-therapies and antihypertensive agents, the residual risk of an atherosclerotic event remains high and developing therapeutic strategies has proven challenging. This is due to the complexity of atherosclerosis with a spatial interplay of multiple cell types within the vascular wall. Here we generate an integrative high-resolution map of human atherosclerotic plaques combining single-cell RNA-seq from multiple studies and spatial transcriptomics data from 12 human specimens, with different stages of atherosclerosis. We show cell-type and atherosclerosis-specific expression changes and spatially constrained alterations in cell-cell communication. We highlight the possible recruitment of lymphocytes via ACKR1 endothelial cells of the vasa vasorum, the migration of vascular smooth muscle cells towards the lumen by transforming into fibromyocytes, and cell-cell communication in the plaque region, indicating an intricate cellular interplay within the adventitia and the subendothelial space in human atherosclerosis.
