Single-cell sequencing of genomic DNA resolves sub-clonal heterogeneity in a melanoma cell line.

ABSTRACT: We performed shallow single-cell sequencing of genomic DNA across 1475 cells from a cell-line, COLO829, to resolve overall complexity and clonality. This melanoma tumor-line has been previously characterized by multiple technologies and is a benchmark for evaluating somatic alterations. In some of these studies, COLO829 has shown conflicting and/or indeterminate copy number and, thus, single-cell sequencing provides a tool for gaining insight. Following shallow single-cell sequencing, we first identified at least four major sub-clones by discriminant analysis of principal components of single-cell copy number data. Based on clustering, break-point and loss of heterozygosity analysis of aggregated data from sub-clones, we identified distinct hallmark events that were validated within bulk sequencing and spectral karyotyping. In summary, COLO829 exhibits a classical Dutrillaux's monosomic/trisomic pattern of karyotype evolution with endoreduplication, where consistent sub-clones emerge from the loss/gain of abnormal chromosomes. Overall, our results demonstrate how shallow copy number profiling can uncover hidden biological insights.

Comparative genomic hybridization by array of early passage melanoma cell lines (LM-MEL-series) and single-cell sub-clone of these cell lines to study clonal heterogeneity in melanoma

Project description:Genetic heterogeneity is an important feature of solid tumors, however it is often assumed that most cancer cell lines are genetically homogeneous. A disparity in genetic complexity between cell lines and the disease they model could result in problems such as in vitro preclinical experiments overstating the effectiveness of putative therapeutics. We therefore derived clonal sublines by single cell cloning of in house derived early passage melanoma cell lines (LM-MEL-series), and compared their genomes to each other and the parental cell line using Illumina 610-Quad SNP arrays.

Genomic Heterogeneity and Clonal Evolution in Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer Revealed by Single Cell DNA Sequencing.

Project description:Gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer is a tumor that occurs at the junction of stomach and esophagus anatomically. GEJ cancer frequently metastasizes to lymph nodes, however the heterogeneity and clonal evolution process are unclear. This study is the first of this kind to use single cell DNA sequencing to determine genomic variations and clonal evolution related to lymph node metastasis. Multiple Annealing and Looping Based Amplification Cycles (MALBAC) and bulk exome sequencing were performed to detect single cell copy number variations (CNVs) and single nucleotide variations (SNVs) respectively. Four GEJ cancer patients were enrolled with two (Pt.3, Pt.4) having metastatic lymph nodes. The most common mutation we found happened in the TTN gene, which was reported to be related with the tumor mutation burden in cancers. Significant intra-patient heterogeneity in SNVs and CNVs were found. We identified the SNV subclonal architecture in each tumor. To study the heterogeneity of CNVs, the single cells were sequenced. The number of subclones in the primary tumor was larger than that in lymph nodes, indicating the heterogeneity of primary site was higher. We observed two patterns of multi-station lymph node metastasis: one was skip metastasis and the other was to follow the lymphatic drainage. Taken together, our single cell genomic analysis has revealed the heterogeneity and clonal evolution in GEJ cancer.

Mitochondrial variant enrichment from high-throughput single-cell RNA sequencing resolves clonal populations.

Project description:The combination of single-cell transcriptomics with mitochondrial DNA variant detection can be used to establish lineage relationships in primary human cells, but current methods are not scalable to interrogate complex tissues. Here, we combine common 3' single-cell RNA-sequencing protocols with mitochondrial transcriptome enrichment to increase coverage by more than 50-fold, enabling high-confidence mutation detection. The method successfully identifies skewed immune-cell expansions in primary human clonal hematopoiesis.

Single cell derived clonal analysis of human glioblastoma links functional and genomic heterogeneity

Project description:Single cell derived clones were extracted from four glioblastoma tumors using fluorescence activated cell sorting with CD15 and CD133 markers. Unsorted bulk tumors were also derived. Gene expression analysis of clones of tumor GBM-482 involved comparison between TMZ resistant (n=5) and sensitive (n=2) clones.

Single cell-derived clonal analysis of human glioblastoma links functional and genomic heterogeneity.

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is a cancer comprised of morphologically, genetically, and phenotypically diverse cells. However, an understanding of the functional significance of intratumoral heterogeneity is lacking. We devised a method to isolate and functionally profile tumorigenic clones from patient glioblastoma samples. Individual clones demonstrated unique proliferation and differentiation abilities. Importantly, naïve patient tumors included clones that were temozolomide resistant, indicating that resistance to conventional GBM therapy can preexist in untreated tumors at a clonal level. Further, candidate therapies for resistant clones were detected with clone-specific drug screening. Genomic analyses revealed genes and pathways that associate with specific functional behavior of single clones. Our results suggest that functional clonal profiling used to identify tumorigenic and drug-resistant tumor clones will lead to the discovery of new GBM clone-specific treatment strategies.

Conifer: clonal tree inference for tumor heterogeneity with single-cell and bulk sequencing data.

Project description:BackgroundGenetic heterogeneity of a cancer tumor that develops during clonal evolution is one of the reasons for cancer treatment failure, by increasing the chance of drug resistance. Clones are cell populations with different genotypes, resulting from differences in somatic mutations that occur and accumulate during cancer development. An appropriate approach for identifying clones is determining the variant allele frequency of mutations that occurred in the tumor. Although bulk sequencing data can be used to provide that information, the frequencies are not informative enough for identifying different clones with the same prevalence and their evolutionary relationships. On the other hand, single-cell sequencing data provides valuable information about branching events in the evolution of a cancerous tumor. However, the temporal order of mutations may be determined with ambiguities using only single-cell data, while variant allele frequencies from bulk sequencing data can provide beneficial information for inferring the temporal order of mutations with fewer ambiguities.ResultIn this study, a new method called Conifer (ClONal tree Inference For hEterogeneity of tumoR) is proposed which combines aggregated variant allele frequency from bulk sequencing data with branching event information from single-cell sequencing data to more accurately identify clones and their evolutionary relationships. It is proven that the accuracy of clone identification and clonal tree inference is increased by using Conifer compared to other existing methods on various sets of simulated data. In addition, it is discussed that the evolutionary tree provided by Conifer on real cancer data sets is highly consistent with information in both bulk and single-cell data.ConclusionsIn this study, we have provided an accurate and robust method to identify clones of tumor heterogeneity and their evolutionary history by combining single-cell and bulk sequencing data.

Single-cell DNA amplicon sequencing reveals clonal heterogeneity and evolution in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Project description:T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive leukemia that is most frequent in children and is characterized by the presence of few chromosomal rearrangements and 10 to 20 somatic mutations in protein-coding regions at diagnosis. The majority of T-ALL cases harbor activating mutations in NOTCH1 together with mutations in genes implicated in kinase signaling, transcriptional regulation, or protein translation. To obtain more insight in the level of clonal heterogeneity at diagnosis and during treatment, we used single-cell targeted DNA sequencing with the Tapestri platform. We designed a custom ALL panel and obtained accurate single-nucleotide variant and small insertion-deletion mutation calling for 305 amplicons covering 110 genes in about 4400 cells per sample and time point. A total of 108 188 cells were analyzed for 25 samples of 8 T-ALL patients. We typically observed a major clone at diagnosis (>35% of the cells) accompanied by several minor clones of which some were less than 1% of the total number of cells. Four patients had >2 NOTCH1 mutations, some of which present in minor clones, indicating a strong pressure to acquire NOTCH1 mutations in developing T-ALL cells. By analyzing longitudinal samples, we detected the presence and clonal nature of residual leukemic cells and clones with a minor presence at diagnosis that evolved to clinically relevant major clones at later disease stages. Therefore, single-cell DNA amplicon sequencing is a sensitive assay to detect clonal architecture and evolution in T-ALL.

Multi-region and single-cell sequencing reveal variable genomic heterogeneity in rectal cancer.

Project description:BackgroundColorectal cancer is a heterogeneous group of malignancies with complex molecular subtypes. While colon cancer has been widely investigated, studies on rectal cancer are very limited. Here, we performed multi-region whole-exome sequencing and single-cell whole-genome sequencing to examine the genomic intratumor heterogeneity (ITH) of rectal tumors.MethodsWe sequenced nine tumor regions and 88 single cells from two rectal cancer patients with tumors of the same molecular classification and characterized their mutation profiles and somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs) at the multi-region and the single-cell levels.ResultsA variable extent of genomic heterogeneity was observed between the two patients, and the degree of ITH increased when analyzed on the single-cell level. We found that major SCNAs were early events in cancer development and inherited steadily. Single-cell sequencing revealed mutations and SCNAs which were hidden in bulk sequencing. In summary, we studied the ITH of rectal cancer at regional and single-cell resolution and demonstrated that variable heterogeneity existed in two patients. The mutational scenarios and SCNA profiles of two patients with treatment naïve from the same molecular subtype are quite different.ConclusionsOur results suggest each tumor possesses its own architecture, which may result in different diagnosis, prognosis, and drug responses. Remarkable ITH exists in the two patients we have studied, providing a preliminary impression of ITH in rectal cancer.
