Sequencing of Medulloblastoma

ABSTRACT:

Medulloblastoma is a heterogenous disease made up of at least four distinct subtypes of disease which appear to exploit and disrupt naturally occurring developmental pathways of cellular growth and hindbrain development. To better understand the driver mutations of this disease, we performed whole genome sequencing of 37 medulloblastomas and the corresponding normal DNA of the 37 affected children treated at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. We have found several novel mutations which appear subtype specific. These mutations were checked for frequency in a separate tumor cohort of 56 children with medulloblastoma, also treated on the St. Jude Medulloblastoma 2003 trial, and were tested in several animal models of medulloblastoma for proof of oncogenic potential.

Elucidating the etiology and molecular pathogenicity of infectious diarrhea by high throughput RNA sequencing

Project description:Diarrhea remains a major cause of death in children. Current diagnostic methods largely rely on stool culture and suffer from low sensitivity and inadequate specificity, often leading to inappropriate treatment. The objective of the present study was to use RNA sequencing (RNAseq) analysis to determine blood transcriptional profiles specific for several common pathogenic bacteria and viruses that cause diarrhea in children. We collected whole blood samples from children in Mexico having diarrhea associated with a single pathogen and without systemic complications. Our RNAseq data suggested that the blood signatures can differentiate children with diarrhea from healthy children either with or without bacterial colonization. Moreover, we detected different expression profiles from bacterial and viral infection, demonstrating for the first time the use of RNAseq to identify the etiology of infectious diarrhea. Whole blood from 207 children including children with diarrhea caused by rotavirus (n=55), E.coli (n=55), Salmonella (n=36), Shigella (n=37) and control children (n=24).

Affymetrix SNP array data for breast cancer samples

Project description:Chromosomal structural mutations play an important role in determining the transcriptional landscape of human breast cancers. We determined that pro-oncogenic and anti-oncogenic genes are clustered throughout the genome and that these clusters coincide with regions of segmental amplification and deletion. We constructed detailed structural mutation maps of representative breast cancers and found that tandem duplications appear to nucleate regions for amplification. Subsequent rearrangements link distant pro-oncogenic elements for co-amplification, and are associated with loss of tumor suppressors. We show that genes engaged in co-amplifications or conjoint deletions on 17q and 8q have pro-growth effects that are additive in nature. Our results suggest structural mutations efficiently orchestrate the gain and loss of cancer gene cassettes that engage many oncogenic pathways simultaneously. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from fresh-frozen breast tumors with >80% tumor cell content and their paired peripheral blood samples. Copy number analysis of the SNP arrays was done using the copy number pipeline implemented into Partek software version 6.5

A de novo mouse model of C11orf95-RELA fusion-driven ependymoma identifies driver functions in addition to NFκB

Project description:The vast majority of supratentorial ependymomas (ST-EPNs) have few mutations other than chromosomal rearrangements on chromosome 11, most generating a fusion between C11orf95 and RELA (CR). This CR fusion can transform stem cells ex vivo rendering them oncogenic and may possess NF-κB activity, which has been proposed to be a mechanism of oncogenesis. However, it is not known whether CR is sufficient for EPN formation in vivo, and from what cell type and location. We found that CR is sufficient to form tumors from cells in the ependymal zone in mice that show many molecular and histologic similarities to human ST-EPN. Furthermore, the activation of NF-κB by this fusion protein appears minimal and not related to its oncogenic activity

Chromosome as oncogenic organizer: functional consequences of structural mutations in breast cancer (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Chromosomal structural mutations play an important role in determining the transcriptional landscape of human breast cancers. To assess the nature of these structural mutations, we analyzed a representative sampling of the major types of breast tumor samples for detailed structural mutations using paired-end tag sequencing of long-insert genomic DNA (DNA-PET) with matched transcriptome ascertainment by RNA-seq. Compared with other structural mutations, tandem duplications are enriched around partners of fusion transcripts and demarcate regions of high gene expression. Moreover tandem duplications appear to be early events in tumor evolution by facilitating subsequent downstream amplification and deletion of important adjacent cancer associated genes. In a detailed reconstruction of events in chr17, we found large unpaired-inversions connect a duplicated ERBB2 with neighboring 17q21.3 amplicons while simultaneously deleting the intervening BRCA1 tumor suppressor locus. Using siRNAs in breast cancer cell lines, we showed that the 17q21.3 amplicon harbored a significant number of weak oncogenes that appeared consistently co-amplified in primary tumors. Down-regulation of BRCA1 expression augmented the cell proliferation in human normal mammary epithelial cells. Finally, using in silico approaches, we determined that genes whose expression in breast tumors are associated with either poor or good clinical prognosis appear clustered together in segments of frequent amplification or deletion, suggesting that structural abnormalities induce the loss or gain of blocks of adjacent genes with oncogenic or growth suppressor function. These analyses suggest that structural mutations efficiently orchestrate the gain and loss of cancer gene cassettes that engage many oncogenic pathways simultaneously.

Longitudinal single-cell dynamics of mitochondrial mutations in chronic lymphocytic leukemia mirror disease history

Project description:Mitochondrial mutations have the potential to act as natural barcodes that allow the tracking of heterogenous cell populations at the single cell level, but thus far, the dynamics of mitochondrial mutations across time and tissue compartments have not been extensively studied. This dataset was generated using mtscATAC-seq to track mitochondrial mutations in peripheral blood, bone marrow and lymph node from 9 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) across different clinical scenarios. Our in-depth analysis reveals different patterns of dynamisms in mitochondrial mutations in patients undergoing watchful waiting, chemotherapy with fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and rituximab (FCR), allogeneic stem cell transplantation, ibrutinib treatment or transformation to Richter’s syndrome. We provide evidence that mitochondrial mutations can link CLL subclones with distinct chromatin cell states. Mitochondrial mutations appear to recapitulate disease history in CLL, providing patient-level support of the concept of in vivo natural barcodes as a means for understanding clonal dynamics in cancer.
