• 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.

• NCI COVID-19 in Cancer Patients Study (NCCAPS): A Longitudinal Natural History Study

  NCCAPS is a longitudinal prospective cohort study designed to assess patient, disease and treatment factors associated with short- and long-term outcomes in patients with cancer who develop COVID-19. We also aimed to describe COVID-19 symptoms and treatments, and to describe disruptions in cancer treatment due to COVID-19. The study enrolled patients with cancer on active treatment or with a history of stem cell transplant or CAR-T cell therapy with new, active COVID-19, defined as being within 14 days of their first positive SARS-CoV-2 test. The study found that receipt of chemotherapy and baseline history of stroke, atrial fibrillation or pulmonary embolism were associated with a higher risk of hospitalization for COVID-19. Vaccination for SARS-CoV-2 was associated with a lower risk of hospitalization. Death due to COVID-19 was highest in patients with lymphoma, intermediate in those with acute leukemia and lung cancer, and lowest in those with other solid tumors and other hematologic cancers. Disruptions of cancer treatment were frequent in the first 30 days after SARS-CoV-2 infection.

• Genome-wide cell-free DNA fragmentation in patients with cancer

  Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in the blood provides a noninvasive diagnostic avenue for patients with cancer. However, characteristics of the origins and molecular features of cfDNA are poorly understood. We developed an approach to evaluate fragmentation patterns of cfDNA across the genome and found that cfDNA profiles of healthy individuals reflected nucleosomal patterns of white blood cells, while patients with cancer had altered fragmentation profiles. We applied this method to analyze fragmentation profiles of 236 patients with breast, colorectal, lung, ovarian, pancreatic, gastric, or bile duct cancers and 245 healthy individuals. A machine learning model incorporating genome-wide fragmentation features had sensitivities of detection ranging from 57% to &amp;gt;99% among the seven cancer types at 98% specificity, with an overall AUC of 0.94. Fragmentation profiles could be used to identify the tissue of origin of the cancers to a limited number of sites in 75% of cases. Combining our approach with mutation based cfDNA analyses detected 91% of cancer patients. The results of these analyses highlight important properties of cfDNA and provide a proof of principle approach for screening, early detection, and monitoring of human cancer.

• MutWP4__CRUK_Grand_Challenge_Mutographs_of_Cancer__Gastric_Organoids

  The Mutographs project aims to advance our understanding of the causes of cancer through studies of mutational signatures. Led by Mike Stratton, together with Paul Brennan, Ludmil Alexandrov, Allan Balmain, David Phillips and Peter Campbell, this large-scale international research endeavour was awarded a Cancer Research UK Grand Challenge. Different patterns of somatic mutation are generated by the different environmental, lifestyle and genetic factors that cause cancer, many of them are still unknown. Within Mutographs, Kings College London will characterise the mutational signatures induced by putative human carcinogens in order to identify the origins of mutational signatures found in human cancers. To achieve this human organoid cell cultures will be exposed to a representative catalogue of known or suspected human carcinogens and mutagens and, using whole genome sequencing, the patterns of mutations induced by them will be determined. Somatic mutational signatures will be subsequently extracted by non-negative matrix factorisation methods and correlated with exposure data. Through an enhanced understanding of cancer aetiology, Mutographs unprecedented effort is anticipated to outline modifiable risk factors, lead to new approaches to prevent cancer, and provide opportunities to empower early detection, refine high-risk groups and contribute to further therapeutic development.

• RNAseq data of polyA+ RNA from Leukocytes from 624 individuals of the SardiNIA cohort.

  We sequenced the polyA+ of the RNA of the leukocytes from 624 sardinian individuals with RNAseq (Illumina 2000, an average of round 60M reads per sample, 51 + 51 nt). Combining the genotype information of the same individuals (already available from the ProgeNIA project) with the transcriptome data we identified 21,183 independent expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) and 6,768 independent splicing quantitative trait loci (sQTLs), including 619 novel QTLs that exhibit population-specific trait associations. Using family relationships, we identified 809 segregating expression outliers and provide a new approach to study large effect regulatory variants and their relevance to traits. Our results provide insight into the effects of regulatory variants and their relationship to population history and individual genetic risk.

• 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.

• 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

• 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).

• Targeted sequencing of breast cancers with germline BRCA1/2 mutations

  Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer in women, where a germline predisposition plays a substantial role. However, the effects of pathogenic germline variants on accompanying breast cancers have not been fully characterized in terms of somatic alterations. We obtained tumor samples from 30 patients with pathogenic germline variants in BRCA2 (n = 25) and BRCA1 (n = 5), as well as an additional 30 patients without pathogenic germline mutations, in which somatic mutations in common breast cancer drivers and CNAs were analyzed using targeted panel sequencing.

• Colorectal cancer cells possess an equipotent capacity to enter a developmental pausing-like state to survive chemotherapy

  Cancer cells enter a reversible drug tolerant persister (DTP) state to evade death from both chemotherapies and targeted agents. It is increasingly appreciated that the DTP state is an important driver of therapy failure and tumor relapse. We combined cellular barcoding and mathematical modeling in patient-derived colorectal cancer xenograft models to identify and characterize the cancer cells capable of generating DTPs in response to standard-of-care chemotherapy. Barcode analysis revealed no loss in clonal complexity of tumors that entered the DTP state and recurred following treatment cessation. Our data fits a mathematical model in which all cancer cells, and not a small subpopulation, possess an equipotent capacity to enter the DTP state. Mechanistically, we determined that DTPs display remarkable transcriptional and functional similarities to diapause, a reversible state of suspended embryonic development triggered by unfavorable environmental conditions. Our study provides new insights into how cancer cells use a developmentally conserved mechanism to drive the DTP state pointing to novel therapeutic opportunities to target diapause-like DTPs.

• National Cancer Institute (NCI) Prostate Cancer Genome-Wide Association Study for Uncommon Susceptibility Loci (PEGASUS)

  This genome-wide association study was funded by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) to identify uncommon susceptibility loci for prostate cancer. A total of 4,600 prostate cancer cases and 2,840 controls of European ancestry from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian (PLCO) Cancer Screening Trial were genotyped using the Illumina HumanOmni2.5 and passed rigorous quality control filters. Additional genotype data (available in dbGap under other accession numbers) from 101 independent controls of European ancestry scanned with the HumanOmni2.5 were also included, resulting in a total of 4,600 cases and 2,941 controls for the published analysis. SNPs from the most promising regions, as determined by rank p-value, under multiple different models as well as select candidate genes were taken forward for replication using a custom Iselect chip in 6,575 cases and 6,392 controls of European ancestry. Results from the primary scan after imputation were then meta-analyzed with the Iselect results as well as results from previous GWAS. In a combined meta-analysis of the primary scan together with the custom Iselect replication and a previous GWAS, thirteen loci reached genome-wide significance (P &#60; 5 x 10-8) for prostate cancer overall; however, each of them confirmed a previously reported locus. Although they did not reach genome-wide significance, we found evidence for two new suggestive loci at chromosome 16q22.2 (PKD1L3, rs12597458, P = 9.67 x 10-8) and 6p22.3 (CDKAL1, rs12198220, P = 2.13 x 10-7). In a combined case-only analysis of 12,518 prostate cancer cases, we identified two loci associated with Gleason score, a pathological measure of disease aggressiveness: rs35148638 at 5q14.3 (RASA1, P=6.49x10-9) and rs78943174 at 3q26.31 (NAALADL2, P=4.18x10-8). In a stratified case-control analysis, the SNP at 5q14.3 appears specific for aggressive prostate cancer (P=8.85x10-5) with no association for non-aggressive prostate cancer compared to controls (P=0.57). Only the cases and controls genotyped on the HumanOmni2.5 specifically for this study are included under this accession number. Controls (n=101) genotyped with the HumanOmni2.5 for another study are posted under a different accession number. Please note that the majority of prostate cancer cases and controls genotyped in CGEMS (and posted under a different accession number) are included in this study.

• Reconstituting the transcriptome and DNA methylome landscapes of human implantation at single-cell resolution

  Implantation is a milestone event during mammalian embryogenesis. Due to the extreme difficulty of obtaining in vivo human early post-implantation embryos, the gene regulatory network and epigenetics controlling human embryo implantation remains elusive. Here, combining an in vitro culture system for human post-implantation development and single-cell omics sequencing technologies, over 10,000 single cells at five representative stages of pre/post-implantation development were systematically analyzed. Unsupervised dimensionality reduction and clustering algorithm of the transcriptome data show stepwise implantation routes for the epiblast, primitive endoderm, and trophectoderm lineages, suggesting preparation for the establishment of a mother-to-offspring connection after implantation. Female embryos showed asynchronous progress of dosage loss of X chromosomes during implantation. Furthermore, using the single cell trio-Seq (scTrio-Seq) strategy, re-methylation of the genomes of all the three lineages was unambiguously revealed. Surprisingly, the genome re-methylation of PE lineage were much slower than both EPI and TE lineages during the implantation process, indicating distinct methylome features between EPI and PE although both of which were derived from ICM. Collectively, our work paves the way for understanding the complex molecular mechanisms that regulate human embryo implantation, informing new insights and future efforts in early embryonic development and reproductive medicine.

• Accurate mutation detection in leukemia by re-sequencing a cancer gene set

  With the advent of whole-genome and whole-exome sequencing, high-quality catalogs of recurrently mutated cancer genes are becoming available for many cancer types. Increasing access to sequencing technology, including bench-top sequencers, provide the opportunity to re-sequence a limited set of cancer genes across a patient cohort with limited processing time. Here, we re-sequenced a set of cancer genes in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) using the Roche/454 technology coupled with Nimblegen sequence capture. First, we investigated how a maximal sensitivity and specificity of mutation detection can be achieved through a benchmark study. We tested nine combinations of different mapping and variant-calling methods, varied the variant calling parameters, and compared the predicted mutations with a large independent validation set obtained by capillary re-sequencing. We found that the combination of two mapping algorithms, namely BWA-SW and SSAHA2, coupled with the variant calling algorithm Atlas-SNP2 yields the highest sensitivity (95%) and the highest specificity (93%). Next, we applied this analysis pipeline to identify mutations in a set of 58 cancer genes, in a panel of 18 T-ALL cell lines and 15 T-ALL patient samples. We confirmed mutations in known T-ALL drivers, including PHF6, NF1, FBXW7, NOTCH1, KRAS, NRAS, PIK3CA, and PTEN. Interestingly, we also found mutations in several cancer genes that had not been linked to T-ALL before, including JAK3. Finally, we re-sequenced a small set of 39 candidate genes and identified recurrent mutations in TET1, SPRY3 and SPRY4. In conclusion, we established an optimized analysis pipeline for Roche/454 data that can be applied to accurately detect gene mutations in cancer, which led to the identification of several new candidate T-ALL driver mutations.

• Breast cancer women lack normal lifelong immune response after full-term pregnancies

  Immunological tolerance during pregnancy is necessary for women’s bodies to accept the semi-allogenic fetus. Interestingly, “immune evasion”, which consists of some similar immunological changes, was recently proposed as a hallmark of cancer. Looking at these results, it seems paradoxical that increasing number of full-term pregnancies (FTP) reduces the risk of breast cancer in women. Our aim was to use a systems epidemiology approach to investigate this paradox by modelling breast cancer incidence as a function of parity in the Norwegian Women and Cancer (NOWAC) cohort, then testing the mathematical model using gene expression from blood in a subcohort of these women: the NOWAC postgenome cohort. Lastly, we undertook a gene set enrichment analysis for immunological gene sets. A linear trend nicely fitted the dataset showing an 8% decrease in risk for each FTP, independent of stratification on other risk factors and lasting for decades after a woman’s last FTP. However, when we looked at gene expression we found that hundreds of genes showed linear trends in cancer-free controls, but this was not the case in /any/ of the samples from breast cancer cases. In the gene set enrichment analysis, samples consisted of human blood or cord blood and mouse bone marrow or spleen. We found more adaptive gene sets than expected in humans and more innate gene sets than expected in mice. None of the gene sets provided information about the long-term effects of immunological tolerance during pregnancy, but the lack of relevant reductionist experiments hampers our interpretation. We suggest that, after resolution at birth, the immunological tolerance induced by pregnancy augments immune response to cancer development.

• Genetic Risk for Subsequent Neoplasms among Long-term Survivors of Childhood Cancer in the St. Jude Lifetime Cohort

  While childhood cancer survivors are known to be at increased risk of subsequent neoplasms (SNs), the contribution of germline mutations in cancer predisposition genes to the risk of SN is largely unknown. Whole-genome sequencing (30X) was performed on 3,006 5+ year survivors of childhood cancer (median age, 35.8 [range: 7.1-69.8] years) from the St. Jude Lifetime Cohort. Survivors underwent a comprehensive clinical assessment. Germline mutations in 156 cancer predisposition genes (SJCPG156), including a subset of 60 (SJCPG60) autosomal dominant genes with moderate to high penetrance, were classified for their pathogenicity. Piecewise exponential regression, stratified by radiation exposure, was used to evaluate the relative rate (RR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of SN occurrence by mutation status. Pathogenic or likely pathogenic mutations in SJCPG156 and SJCPG60 were identified in 11.7% and 5.8% of survivors, respectively. The most frequently mutated SJCPG60 genes included RB1 (n=43), NF1 (n=22), BRCA2 (n=14), BRCA1 (n=12) and TP53 (n=10). Mutations in SJCPG60 were associated with the rate of subsequent sarcoma (RR, 10.3; 95% CI, 4.2 to 25.6) and breast cancer (RR, 13.3; 95% CI, 5.8 to 30.5) among irradiated survivors, and the rate of developing any SN (RR, 4.8; 95% CI, 2.4 to 9.4) and breast cancer (RR, 7.8; 95% CI, 2.5 to 24.0) among non-irradiated survivors. The rate of developing ≥2 histologically distinct SNs was increased 17.8-fold (95% CI, 3.5 to 89.8) among SJCPG60 mutation carriers treated without radiotherapy. Similar but attenuated associations were observed for mutations in SJCPG156. Survivors who develop a SN without prior radiotherapy or who are diagnosed with a subsequent sarcoma or breast cancer within a site of prior radiotherapy should be referred to genetic counseling.

• Smoking-dependent expression alterations in nasal epithelium reveal immune impairment linked to germline variation and lung cancer risk.

  Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the world. In contrast to many other cancers, a direct connection to lifestyle risk in the form of cigarette smoke has long been established. More than 50% of all smoking-related lung cancers occur in former smokers, often many years after smoking cessation. Despite extensive research, the molecular processes for persistent lung cancer risk are unclear. CT screening of current and former smokers has been shown to reduce lung cancer mortality by up to 26%. To examine whether clinical risk stratification can be improved upon by the addition of genetic data, and to explore the mechanisms of the persisting risk in former smokers, we have analyzed transcriptomic data from accessible airway tissues of 487 subjects. We developed a model to assess smoking associated gene expression changes and their reversibility after smoking is stopped, in both healthy subjects and clinic patients. We find persistent smoking associated immune alterations to be a hallmark of the clinic patients. Integrating previous GWAS data using a transcriptional network approach, we demonstrate that the same immune and interferon related pathways are strongly enriched for genes linked to known genetic risk factors, demonstrating a causal relationship between immune alteration and lung cancer risk. Finally, we used accessible airway transcriptomic data to derive a non-invasive lung cancer risk classifier. Our results provide initial evidence for germline-mediated personalised smoke injury response and risk in the general population, with potential implications for managing long-term lung cancer incidence and mortality.

• High-depth whole genome sequencing of 26 premalignant breast lesions

  Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a non-obligate precursor lesion of breast cancer, representing 20-25% of newly diagnosed breast cancer lesions. It is currently not possible to predict which DCIS patients will progress to invasive breast cancer. The samples deposited here are part of a larger study using high-depth whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate the somatic mutation genomic landscape of DCIS. Comprehensive evaluation of DCIS genomes aims to uncover biological insights into breast cancer progression and potential opportunities to stratify DCIS patients for personalised treatment options or active surveillance. Due to specific restrictions imposed by the ethical approval at sample collection, the use of the germline data is restricted to filtering of somatic mutation calls only and cannot be used outside this purpose.

• Genome-wide analyses of cell-free DNA for therapeutic monitoring of patients with pancreatic cancer

  Determining response to therapy for patients with pancreatic cancer can be challenging. We evaluated methods for assessing therapeutic response using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in plasma samples from 40 patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer as part of the CheckPAC trial (NCT02866383). Patients were evaluated before and after initiation of therapy using tumor-informed plasma whole-genome sequencing (WGMAF), and genome-wide cfDNA fragmentation profiles and repeat landscapes (ARTEMIS-DELFI). Of those assessed with WGMAF, molecular responders had a median overall survival (OS) of 319 days compared to 126 days for non-responders (HR=0.29, 95% CI=0.11–0.79, p=0.011). For ARTEMIS-DELFI, patients with low scores after therapy initiation had a longer median OS than patients with high scores (233 days versus 172 days, HR=0.12, 95% CI=0.046-0.31, p<0.0001). We validated ARTEMIS-DELFI in a separate cohort of 40 patients with pancreatic cancer who were part of the PACTO trial (NCT02767557). These analyses suggest that non-invasive mutation and fragmentation-based cfDNA approaches can identify therapeutic response of individuals with pancreatic cancer.

• Melbourne Collaborative Cohort Study DNA Methylation Studies

  This dataset contains raw Illumina 450K blood DNA methylation data from a subset of participants in the Melbourne Cohort Study (MCCS), a prospective study of 41,513 healthy adult volunteers (24,469 women) aged between 27 and 76 years when recruited between 1990 and 1994. Nested case-control studies: DNA methylation data were generated as part of cancer case-control studies nested in the MCCS. Participants were cancer-free at blood draw; blood samples were taken at baseline (1990-1994) for 97% of participants; and for 3% of participants at the second wave of follow-up (2003-2007). Eight separate studies were conducted of breast, prostate, colorectal, lung, kidney, urothelial and gastric cancer and B-cell lymphoma, for a total of > 3,500 cancer cases. Controls were individually matched to cases on age, sex, and country of birth using incidence density sampling. Additional matching on smoking history was made for the study of lung cancer. Longitudinal study: For a subset of 1,100 participants with baseline DNA methylation measures (from dried blood spots) who were selected as controls in the nested case-control studies, repeated methylation measures were made using wave 2 follow-up samples (also from dried blood spots) to study longitudinal DNA methylation changes. Project aims: 1. Nested case-control studies: To assess prospective associations between peripheral blood DNA methylation and risk of eight cancer types (breast, prostate, colorectal, lung, kidney, urothelial cell and gastric cancer, and mature B-cell neoplasms). 2. Longitudinal study: To assess associations between lifestyle changes and changes in peripheral blood DNA methylation.

• Benchmarking for alignment and variant calling

  Background: Lung cancer is a heterogeneous disease and the primary cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Somatic mutations, including large structural variants, are important biomarkers in lung cancer for selecting targeted therapy. Genomic studies in lung cancer have been conducted using short-read sequencing. Emerging long-read sequencing technologies are a promising alternative to study somatic structural variants, however there is no current consensus on how to process data and call somatic events. In this study, we preformed whole genome sequencing of lung cancer and matched non-tumour samples using long and short read sequencing to comprehensively benchmark three sequence aligners and six structural variant callers comprised of four generic callers (Sniffles2, cuteSV, SVIM and DELLY in generic mode) and two somatic callers (nanomonsv and DELLY in somatic modes). Results: Different combinations of aligners and variant callers influenced somatic structural variant detection. The choice of caller had a significant influence on somatic structural variant detection in terms of variant type, size, sensitivity, and accuracy. The performance of each variant caller was assessed by comparing to somatic structural variants identified by short read sequencing. When compared to somatic structural variants detected with short read sequencing, more events were detected with long read sequencing. The mean recall of somatic variant events identified by short read sequencing was higher for the somatic callers (64%) than generic callers (52%), with nanomonsv (69%) showing the best performance. Conclusion: Long read sequencing can identify somatic structural variants. The longer reads have the potential to improve our understanding of cancer development and inform personalized cancer treatment.

• Clonal_haematopoiesis_in_patients_with_AAA

  Recent advances in genomics have demonstrated that clonal haemopoiesis driven by leukaemia associated somatic mutations is a relatively common phenomenon that increases in frequency with advancing age. Whilst individuals with clonal haemopoiesis have an increased risk of developing haematological malignancies, they also have an increased mortality from other causes. Additionally, certain mutations are almost exclusively seen in individuals aged 70 years or older, whilst others are seen in individuals with non-haematological cancers including breast and ovarian. Recently, clonal haemopoiesis was found to be associated with a significantly increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. This association is thought to be causative with clonally-derived macrophages showing elevated expression of several chemokine and cytokine genes that contribute to atherosclerosis. Another vascular pathology, abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), increases with age and shares risk factors with atherosclerosis (including smoking, male sex, high cholesterol). However, the impact of these risk factors and the overlap between AAA and atherosclerosis is poorly understood. To investigate a possible link between clonal haemopoiesis and AAA, we will study DNA samples from 300 patients with AAA and up to 200 controls for evidence of clonal haemopoiesis. This will be done using target DNA enrichment with biotinylated RNA baits followed by high throughput sequencing.

• RNA stability controlled by m6A methylation contributes to X-to-autosome dosage compensation in mamals

  In mammals, X-chromosomal genes are expressed from a single copy since males (XY) possess a single X chromosome, while females (XX) undergo X inactivation. To compensate for this reduction in dosage compared to two active copies of autosomes, it has been proposed that genes from the active X chromosome exhibit dosage compensation. However, the existence and mechanism of X-to-autosome dosage compensation are still under debate. Here, we show that X-chromosomal transcripts are reduced in m6A modifications and more stable compared to their autosomal counterparts. Acute depletion of m6A selectively stabilises autosomal transcripts, resulting in perturbed dosage compensation in mouse embryonic stem cells. We propose that higher stability of X-chromosomal transcripts is directed by lower levels of m6A, indicating that mammalian dosage compensation is partly regulated by epitranscriptomic RNA modifications.

• Use of Whole Genome Sequencing for Diagnosis and Discovery in the Cancer Genetics Clinic

  Despite the potential of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to improve patient diagnosis and care, the empirical value of WGS in the cancer genetics clinic is unknown. We performed WGS on members of two cohorts of cancer genetics patients: those with BRCA1/2 mutations (n = 176) and those without (n = 82). Initial analysis of potentially pathogenic variants (PPVs, defined as nonsynonymous variants with allele frequency &#60; 1% in ESP6500) in 163 clinically-relevant genes suggested that WGS will provide useful clinical results. This is despite the fact that a majority of PPVs were novel missense variants likely to be classified as variants of unknown significance (VUS). Furthermore, previously reported pathogenic missense variants did not always associate with their predicted diseases in our patients. This suggests that the clinical use of WGS will require large-scale efforts to consolidate WGS and patient data to improve accuracy of interpretation of rare variants. While loss-of-function (LoF) variants represented only a small fraction of PPVs, WGS identified additional cancer risk LoF PPVs in patients with known BRCA1/2 mutations and led to cancer risk diagnoses in 21% of non-BRCA cancer genetics patients after expanding our analysis to 3209 ClinVar genes. These data illustrate how WGS can be used to improve our ability to discover patients&#39; cancer genetic risks. "Reprinted from doi:10.1016/j.ebiom.2014.12.003, with permission from EBioMedicine."

• Geriatric Oncology Database of genotypes and methylation, gene expression, clinical data, and survey results on psychosocial and physical conditions in Japanese elderly cancer patients to establish truly effective treatment strategy

  Owing to the advent of super-aged society, cancer mortality in Japan is forecasted to become an all-time high. The management of elderly patients with cancer is a serious health issue and the need for specific care guidelines for this population is critical in Japan. The significant individual differences in comorbidity, physical and mental functioning, and social problems among aging individuals are obstacles to the progress. The response to cancer treatment varies significantly among patients, even in the same stage of the same type of cancer. Older aged patients are still less likely to be offered participation in clinical trials, thus the number of clinical evidences is limited. The molecular mechanisms regulating the physiological process of ageing and senescence, and cancer are far from understood. To establish a truly effective treatment algorithm, we attempted to develop a geriatric oncology database for genotypes and methylation, gene expression, clinical data, and survey results on psychosocial and physical conditions in Japanese elderly cancer patients in this retrospective study. The genomic analysis was performed in 62, 106, and 173 cases, respectively for gastric, colon and lung cancers. The clinical data and survey results on psychosocial and physical conditions were collected from 166, 313, and 344 patients respectively for gastric, colon and lung cancers, and also collected from 357, 49, and 300 benign cases respectively for cardiovascular disorder, respiratory dysfunction, diabetes and nephropathy as the analysis control.
