• Assessment of genetic and epigenetic variation in human IPS cells-RNA

  In order to progress human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) towards the clinic, several outstanding questions must be addressed. It is possible to reprogram different somatic cell types into hiPSCs and from studies in the mouse, it appears that an epigenetic memory of the starting cell type is carried over to hiPSCs. However a comprehensive comparative study of the characteristics of these hiPSCs has been missing from the literature. Importantly studies which aimed to address these aspects of hiPSCs have used cells from different patients. In order to avoid this important confounding variable and to keep the genetic background constant, tissue samples were procured from the patients and reprogrammed to iPS cells. The transcriptomes of these iPS cells will be compared. Protocol: primary cultures of cells were reprogrammed to iPS cells. RNA was extracted using a standard column extraction kit.

• Enrichment of PTPRT and JAK2 mutations in lung cancer from African Americans and evidence for increased GI and HRD in LUSC

  The goal of this study is to compare the somatic mutation landscape between European Americans and African Americans. It includes various histological forms of lung cancer. In LUAD, we find increased prevalence of PTPRT and JAK2 mutations among African Americans. These proteins function in the same pathway and as such, this may be a new actionable target for lung cancer. We have also examined the landscape of copy number profiles in African Americans and European Americans.

• Mutational Landscape of Lethal Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer

  Exome sequencing of matched pairs of tumor / normal genomic DNA was performed from high risk localized prostate cancer or lethal, metastatic, castrate resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Exome libraries were prepared using Illumina Paired_End Genome DNA Sample Prep Kit and captured using Agilent SureSelect Capture Library or Roche EZ Exome capture library. Sequencing was performed on Illumina GAII and HiSeq 2000 platforms in paired end mde, with 80 base pair reads from the final library fragments. Copy number alterations and somatic mutations were identified.

• Genome-Wide Analysis of Aberrant Position and Sequence of Plasma DNA Fragment Ends in Patients With Cancer

  This study investigated fragmentation characteristics in plasma cell-free DNA and evaluated the relevance of such analysis for cancer diagnostics. Specifically, we performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) of healthy individuals and cancer patients, and evaluated genome-wide coverage and sequences surrounding fragment ends. This was a retrospective study of archived plasma samples. The WGS data are available through this submission. Detailed study design and findings were published in Budhraja et al. Science Translational Medicine 2023.

• Ontario Familial Colon Cancer Registry Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms and CpG Methylation (OFCCR SNP-CpG)

  We profiled the methylation landscape of ~2100 DNA samples (~1100 cases of colorectal cancer and ~1000 controls) from the Ontario Familial Colon Cancer Registry (OFCCR) using the HumanMethylation450 array from Illumina. DNA was extracted from lymphocyte pellets, except for 99 samples for which DNA was extracted from lymphoblastoid cell lines. Samples were genotyped on the Affymetrix Human Mapping 100k and 500k arrays. The aim the study was to evaluate the interplay between genetic variation and methylation, including long-range epigenetic regulation.

• Human Skin Cancer Atlas, Medical University of Vienna Data Access Policy

  Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play a key role in cancer progression and treatment outcome. Here, we elucidate the yet unresolved intra-tumoral CAF variety in three skin cancer types at molecular and spatial single-cell resolution in a large cohort. We show that two out of three CAF subtypes contribute to tumor immune surveillance with distinct mechanisms. Matrix CAFs (mCAFs) ensheath tumor nests and synthesize extracellular-matrix to prevent T cell invasion. Immunomodulatory CAFs (iCAFs), which express proinflammatory and immunomodulatory factors, are only detected in high abundance in aggressive tumors. Strikingly, iCAFs but not tumor cells are (apart from immune cells) the exclusive cell type producing chemokines and, thus, play a key role in immune cell recruitment and activation. Mechanistically, we show that cancer cells transform adjacent healthy fibroblasts into cytokine-expressing iCAFs, which subsequently recruit immune cells and modulate the immune response. In conclusion, targeting CAF variants holds promise for improved efficacy of immunotherapy.

• WES of breast cancer patients and controls

  This study assessed the variant profiles of 408 samples from 126 breast cancer patients with various survival outcomes, including paired uninvolved mammary gland samples collected at proximal distances from primary lesions. As a reference, control samples from 15 mammoplasty individuals without cancer history were studied. Whole exome sequencing was performed to identify post-zygotic and germline variants present in the studied samples. Variant annotation in known databases, interpretation, and statistical analyses followed to discern the clinical relevance of called variants.

• analysis of immune infiltration in colorectal cancer metastasis

  Metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is the main cause of CRC mortality, with limited treatment options. Although immunotherapy has benefited some cancer patients, mCRC typically lacks the molecular features that respond to this treatment. However, recent studies indicate that the immune microenvironment of mCRC may be modified to enhance the effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors. This study aimed to explore the metastatic immune microenvironment by comparing immune cell populations in colorectal liver (CLM), lung (mLu) and peritoneal (PM) metastases.

• Uncovering Principles of Adaptive Regulation in Cancer Resistance Through Deep Evolutionary Profiling

  A comprehensive understanding of the emergence of therapy resistance in cancer requires new approaches capable of generating and characterizing drug resistant cell lines at scale. Here, we present the EVolution Of Lineages in Vitro (EVOLV) platform, a high-throughput approach for generating diverse libraries of viable, drug-resistant cell lines from a common progenitor. EVOLV enables deeper insights into the genomics of drug resistance as well as into the complex interplay among genomic, transcriptomic, and functional layers during cancer evolution.
