Project description:To invesitigate the additional paracaspase-independent tumor-promoting effect exist for Malt1. We thus collected E0771-Vector control tumor tissue, E0771 wildtype Malt1 (Malt1-WT) overexpression tumor tissue and E0771 paracaspase-deficient Malt1 (Malt1-PD) overexpression tumor tissue, and sorted out immune cells for 10× Genomics single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq).
Project description:This clinical trial studies the effectiveness of a web-based cancer education tool called Helping Oncology Patients Explore Genomics (HOPE-Genomics) in improving patient knowledge of personal genomic testing results and cancer and genomics in general. HOPE-Genomics is a web-based education tool that teaches cancer/leukemia patients, and patients who may be at high-risk for developing cancer, about genomic testing and provide patients with information about their own genomic test results. The HOPE-Genomics tool may improve patient’s genomic knowledge and quality of patient-centered care. In addition, it may also improve education and care quality for future patients.

Project description:Lentiviral vector (LV)-based gene therapy holds promise for a broad range of diseases. Analyzing more than 280,000 vector integration sites (VISs) in 273 samples from 10 patients with X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID-X1), we discovered shared LV integrome signatures in 9 out of 10 patients in relation to the genomics, epigenomics, and 3D structure of the human genome. VISs were enriched in the nuclear sub-compartment A1 and integrated into super-enhancers close to nuclear pore complexes. These signatures were validated in T cells transduced with an LV encoding a CD19-specific chimeric antigen receptor. Intriguingly, the one patient whose VISs deviated from the identified integrome signatures had a distinct clinical course. Comparison of LV and gamma retrovirus integromes regarding their 3D genome signatures, identified differences that might explain the lower risk of insertional mutagenesis in LV-based gene therapy. Our findings suggest that LV integrome signatures, shaped by common features such as genome organization, may impact the efficacy of LV-based cellular therapies.
