Project description:<p>The biological determinants of sensitivity and resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors are not completely understood. To elucidate the role of intratumoral T-cells and its association with the tumor genomic landscape, we perform paired whole exome DNA sequencing and multiplexed quantitative immunofluorescence (QIF) in pre-treatment samples from non-small cell lung carcinoma patients treated with PD-1 axis blockers. QIF was used to simultaneously measure the level of CD3+ tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), in situ T-cell proliferation (Ki-67 in CD3) and effector capacity (Granzyme-B in CD3). Whole exome sequencing reported in the number/type of mutations and predicted class I and class II mutant neoantigens.</p>

Project description:Human peripheral blood natural killer cells are grouped in various ways according to phenotypic and functional characteristics. We sorted peripheral blood natural killer cells from healthy donors into seven surface phenotype-defined populations, hashtagged them, and sequenced them. This analysis permitted simultaneous identification of transcriptional clusters and traceback of the components to their phenotypic groups.

Project description:Imunopeptidomes promise novel surface markers as ideal targets for immunotherapies, but their characterization by mass spectrometry (MS) remains challenging. Until recently, cell numbers exceeding 1.0xE9 were needed for reasonably deep immunopeptidome surveys of at least 1,000 HLA ligands. Such limitation in analytical sensitivity necessarily constrains the types of clinical specimens that can evaluated. To evaluate the feasibility of immunopeptidome profiling from limiting cell amounts, primary purified human regulatory (Treg) and conventional T cells (Tconv) were compared, evaluating the relative immunopeptide recovery from T cells isolated from individual healthy donors (N=5) versus pools (N=2 pools from 13 donors). Two donors’ Tconv were subsequently stimulated with CD3/CD28 and IL-2 and compared to resting Tconv. The combined T-cell immunopeptide dataset reported here contains over 13,000 unique peptides derived from over 5,000 proteins. In comparison to protein expression, T cell immunopeptidomes revealed complementary aspects of T cell biology, while pointing to HLA ligands specific for distinct T cell subsets (e.g., FOXP3, CD5 and WNK1). Taken together, these findings have implications for understanding conditions required to induce therapeutic immune responses and may open up new avenues for tuning Treg suppressive functions to treat cancer.

Project description:Here we investigate the role of mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells in human and murine hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We isolated immune cells of syngeneic HCC cell line RIL-175 tumor-bearing or tumor-free livers and applied FACS sorting (CD45+ leukocytes) prior to 10X genomics based scRNA-seq. This is a complimentary dataset to the human scRNA-seq (deposited through dbGaP), highly multiplexed immunofluorescence microscopy using CODEX technology (deposited through TCIA) of paired patient samples.

Project description:Separation of B cells has been historically important in discovering their functional relevance, particularly in relation to infection, immune disorders and vaccination. Traditional use of phenotypic markers often poses problems in distinguishing heterogeneous populations such as the Double Negative (DN, CD19+CD27-IgD-) cells. B cells represent a small subset of PBMCs; this represents challenges to use bottom-up approaches such as single-cell transcriptomics in defining B cell subpopulations. In this study we therefore used the 10X single-cell RNAseq platform on B cell populations already defined by FACS sorting (Transitional, CD19+CD27-IgD+CD10+; Naïve, CD19+CD27-IgD+CD10-; Classical Memory, CD19+CD27+IgD-; IgM Memory, CD19+CD27+IgD+; and DN). These data match known phenotypes to transcriptionally defined B cell subpopulations, and provide a reference atlas for researchers interested in better defining B cell subsets in their data.

Project description:High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is an archetypal cancer of genomic instability patterned by distinct mutational processes, tumour heterogeneity and intraperitoneal spread. Immunotherapies have had limited efficacy in HGSOC, highlighting an unmet need to assess how mutational processes and the anatomical sites of tumour foci determine the immunological states of the tumour microenvironment. Here we carried out an integrative analysis of whole-genome sequencing, single-cell RNA sequencing, digital histopathology and multiplexed immunofluorescence of 160 tumour sites from 42 treatment-naive patients with HGSOC. Homologous recombination-deficient HRD-Dup (BRCA1 mutant-like) and HRD-Del (BRCA2 mutant-like) tumours harboured inflammatory signalling and ongoing immunoediting, reflected in loss of HLA diversity and tumour infiltration with highly differentiated dysfunctional CD8+ T cells. By contrast, foldback inversion-bearing tumours exhibited elevated immunosuppressive TGFβ signalling and immune exclusion, with predominantly naive/stem-like and memory T cells. Phenotypic state associations were specific to anatomical sites, highlighting compositional, topological and functional differences between adnexal tumours and distal peritoneal foci. Our findings implicate anatomical sites and mutational processes as determinants of evolutionary phenotypic divergence and immune resistance mechanisms in HGSOC. Our study provides a multi-omic cellular phenotype data substrate from which to develop and interpret future personalized immunotherapeutic approaches and early detection research.

Project description:We used a phenotypic cell sorting technique to ask whether phenotypically supervised scRNAseq analysis (pheno-scRNAseq) can provide more insight into heterogeneous cell behaviors than unsupervised scRNAseq. Using a simple 3D in vitro breast cancer (BRCA) model, we conducted pheno-scRNAseq on invasive and non-invasive cells and compared the results to phenotype-agnostic scRNAseq analysis. Pheno-scRNAseq identified unique and more selective differentially expressed genes (DEGs) than unsupervised scRNAseq analysis. Functional studies validated the utility of pheno-scRNAseq in understanding within-cell-type functional heterogeneity and revealed that migration phenotypes were coordinated with specific metabolic, proliferation, stress, and immune phenotypes.

Project description:To identify heterogeneity of stromal cells in human lymph nodes, we performed single-cell RNA-seq of stromal cells (CD45-, CD31- PDPN+) from 3 donors. Additionally, dendritic cells (DCs, CD45+, CD11C+) were isolated from the LNs of the same donors to predict potential interactions between these two types of cells. As potentially human identifiable data, he raw sequencing data files for this experiment will be deposited in the controlled-access EGA archive.

Project description:There has recently been marked progress in identifying genetic risk factors for major depression (MD) and bipolar disorder (BD); however, few systematic efforts have been made to elucidate heterogeneity that exists within and across these diagnostic taxa. The Affective disorders, Environment, and Cognitive Trait (AFFECT) study presents an opportunity to identify and associate the structure of cognition and symptom-level domains across the mood disorder spectrum in a prospective study from a diverse US population.Participants were recruited from the 23andMe, Inc research participant database and through social media; self-reported diagnosis of MD or BD by a medical professional and medication status data were used to enrich for mood-disorder cases. Remote assessments were used to acquire an extensive range of phenotypes, including mood state, transdiagnostic symptom severity, task-based measures of cognition, environmental exposures, personality traits. In this paper we describe the study design, and the demographic and clinical characteristics of the cohort. In addition we report genetic ancestry, SNP heritability, and genetic correlations with other large cohorts of mood disorders.A total of 48,467 participants were enrolled: 14,768 with MD, 9864 with BD, and 23,835 controls. Upon enrollment, 47% of participants with MD and 27% with BD indicated being in an active mood episode. Cases reported early ages of onset (mean = 13.2 and 14.3 years for MD and BD, respectively), and high levels of recurrence (78.6% and 84.9% with >5 episodes), psychotherapy, and psychotropic medication use. SNP heritability on the liability scale for the ascertained MD participants (0.19-0.21) was consistent with the high level of disease severity in this cohort, while BD heritability estimates (0.16-0.22) were comparable to reports in other large scale genomic studies of mood disorders. Genetic correlations between the AFFECT cohort and other large-scale cohorts were high for MD but not for BD. By incorporating transdiagnostic symptom assessments, repeated measures, and genomic data, the AFFECT study represents a unique resource for dissecting the structure of mood disorders across multiple levels of analysis. In addition, the fully remote nature of the study provides valuable insights for future virtual and decentralized clinical trials within mood disorders.
