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

  By investigating an intergenic haplotype on chr21q22, independently linked to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), ankylosing spondylitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis and Takayasu’s arteritis, we discover that the causal gene, ETS2, is a master regulator of inflammatory responses in human macrophages and delineate how the risk haplotype increases ETS2 expression. Using a database of cellular signatures, we identified drugs that could modulate this pathway. To validate the anti-inflammatory activity of one class of small molecules ex vivo, we obtained biopsies from patients with active IBD and cultured these biopsies with a selective, non-ATP competitive MEK inhibitor (PD-0325901), infliximab (positive control), or DMSO (vehicle control) for 18 hours, then performed RNA sequencing.

• Using genetics to identify cell types and mechanisms underlying susceptibility to primary sclerosing cholangitis

  Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a T-cell mediated, chronic inflammatory condition of the biliary tree that is strongly associated with inflammatory bowel disease. Genome-wide association studies have identified 22 non-HLA genetic risk variants associated PSC. Identifying the genes impacted by these variants has proven difficult as the majority lie in non-coding regions of the genome. Knowledge of the genes and biological pathways these non-coding variants are perturbing is vital to understanding the disease biology. One means of assessing the impact of non-coding variants within disease associated loci upon genes is via colocalisation with eQTL. Many eQTL are cell-type specific, requiring the analysis of disease relevant cell types to detect colocalisation. We have collected PSC-relevant T-cell-subtypes from the peripheral blood of PSC patients via fluorescence activated cell sorting in preparation for RNA sequencing and mapping of eQTL. Samples were collected at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hopital, for which local ethical approval has been granted. Lysed cell samples will be transferred to WTSI and DNA/RNA will be extracted from lysed cell samples by T143 before genotyping (DNA) and custom library preparation and sequencing (RNA). This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• minION fastq files of 10 different tumor samples from the Master program (H021)

  Nanopore RNA Sequencing was done for 10 tumor samples. Direct cDNA sequencing was performed using the SQK-DCS109 kit (Oxford Nanopore Technologies). For analysis of a single sample on a MinION flow cell (version R9.4.1), 5 μg RNA was used as input. For multiplexing on a MinION flow cell, 2.5 μg RNA per sample was used as input, and the native barcoding expansion kit EXP-NBD104 was employed in conjunction with SQK-DCS109. After reverse transcription with Maxima H Minus Reverse Transcriptase (Thermo Scientific), second-strand synthesis was performed using the 2x LongAmp Taq Master Mix (New England Biolabs). The resulting double-stranded cDNA was subjected to end-repair and dA-tailing using the NEBNext Ultra End Repair/dA-Tailing Module (New England Biolabs). For multiplexed libraries, this step was followed by barcode ligation and library pooling. Next, libraries were quantified with a Qubit Fluorometer 3.0 (Life Technologies). Finally, sequencing adapters were added to the library preparations and ligated with Blunt/TA Ligase Master Mix (New England Biolabs), followed by further quality control using a Qubit. Samples ACC1 and ACC2 were analyzed on individual MinION flow cells, while the remaining eight samples were sequenced as multiplexed libraries on two MinION flow cells by pooling four samples for each run. Five ACC samples were also analyzed individually on Flongle flow cells
