• Natural Killer Cell Plasticity During IL-15-driven Homeostatic Proliferation

  Here we performed single-cell RNA sequencing to address repertoire stability and subset plasticity during IL-15 driven homeostatic proliferation. Sorted NK cell subsets representing discrete stages of NK cell differentiation are compared with the corresponding subsets after proliferation and further sorted into two subsets depending on the rate of proliferation.

• Transcriptomic signatures of CD4+ T cells from visceral leishmaniasis (VL) patients

  Bulk RNA-sequencing was performed on CD4+ T cells isolated from the blood of visceral leishmaniasis patients (n = 12) and endemic controls (EC; n = 12). CD4+ T cells were obtained by magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS). Alterations in the transcripts of T helper (Th) cells during infection were identified.

• Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy transcriptome signatures correlate with different stages of disease and are marked by different MRI biomarkers

  This project includes RNA-sequencing data from human FSHD and control skeletal muscle biopsies. This project includes data from 28 FSHD patients (total 37 samples, including vastus lateralis and tibialis anterior muscles) and 12 control individuals (total 24 samples, including vastus lateralis and tibialis anterior muscles).

• Epithelioid sarcoma dataset

  This deposit consists of DNA and RNA sequencing data from 32 EPS patients. 28 samples had tumor DNA sequencing data. 2 had matched normal sequencing data. 27 samples had tumor RNA sequencing data.

• Multiomic Dissection of Movement and Neurocognitive Toxicity Following BCMA-Targeting CAR T Therapy

  We report a case of parkinsonism following treatment with ciltacabtagene autoleucel. To investigate underlying mechanisms, we performed a multi-pronged longitudinal analysis using single-cell RNA/TCR-sequencing including both cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and peripheral blood samples, spanning a time frame over 6 month after CAR T cell therapy.

• RNA sequencing of CD8 T cells from melanoma patients prior to and during checkpoint immunotherapy and untreated healthy controls

  We are interested in inter-individual variation in transcriptional response to immune checkpoint blockade. We have analysed poly A purified RNA expression from CD8 T cells (297 transcriptomes in total) isolated from metastatic melanoma patients (n=106) prior to and during treatment with either single agent (Pembrolizumab) or combination (Ipilimumab/ Nivolumab) immune checkpoint blockade. We compare expression at different stages of treatment and additionally contrast this with that from healthy controls (n=68).

• NOWAC blood-based breast cancer case-control study

  Tumor-host interactions extend beyond the local microenvironment and cancer development largely depends on the ability of malignant cells to hijack and exploit the normal physiological processes of the host. Although abnormalities in a host’s systemic immunity are associated with increased cancer susceptibility, the functional interplay between tumor cells and circulating immune cells in regulating tumorigenic responses is unclear. We employed the Norwegian Women and Cancer study, a large prospective population-based cohort study, to identify gene expression changes in blood cells that provide a robust and reproducible diagnostic signal specific to breast cancer patients. We further show that circulating blood cells in breast cancer patients are enriched in genes involved in systemic immunosuppression and the motility, metabolism, growth, and proliferation of immune cells. By mining of the cancer-associated blood transcriptome, we identified immune mediators or biomarkers that could permit early detection of breast cancer and open avenues to novel targeted immunotherapies.

• Single molecule genome-wide mutation profiles of cell-free DNA for non-invasive detection of cancer

  Somatic mutations are a hallmark of tumorigenesis and may be useful for non-invasive diagnosis of cancer. We analyzed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data from 2,511 individuals in the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) study as well as 489 individuals from four prospective cohorts and found distinct regional and mutation type specific frequencies in tissue and cell-free DNA (cfDNA) of cancer patients that were associated with replication timing and other chromatin features. A machine learning model using genome-wide mutational profiles combined with other features and followed by CT imaging detected >90% of lung cancer patients, including those with stage I and II disease. The fixed model was validated in an independent cohort, detected patients with cancer earlier than standard approaches, and could be used to monitor response to therapy. This approach lays the groundwork for non-invasive cancer detection using genome-wide mutation features that may facilitate cancer screening and monitoring.

• Evolution of Structural Rearrangements in Prostate Cancer Intracranial Metastases

  Intracranial metastases in prostate cancer are uncommon but clinically aggressive. We sought to characterize prostate cancer intracranial metastases in order to improve our understanding of their pathogenesis and to promote the search for new treatment strategies. We evaluated the clinical and molecular characteristics of 36 patients with metastatic prostate cancer to either the dura or brain parenchyma. We performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) on samples from 21 patients. The WGS samples include 10 intracranial prostate cancer metastases, as well as WGS of primary prostate tumors from men who later developed metastatic disease (n=6) and non-brain prostate cancer metastases (n=26).

• Genomic Characterization of African-American Prostate Cancer

  African-American men have the highest incidence and mortality rate from prostate cancer. This study represents a whole exome sequencing study of prostate cancer samples from African-American men. We performed exome sequencing and analysis of prostate tumors and matched normal tissues to identify somatic mutations and insertion/deletions across this cohort. All sequencing was performed at the Broad Institute. This study has the potential to identify novel recurrently mutated genes in prostate cancer and improve our understanding of prostate cancer in African-Americans.
