Current genomic models in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are based on single tumor biopsies, which might underestimate heterogeneity. Data on mutational evolution largely remains unknown. An exploratory study using whole exome sequencing on paired (primary and relapse) formalin fixed paraffin embedded DLBCL biopsies (n = 14) of 6 patients was performed to globally assess the mutational evolution and to identify gene mutations specific for relapse samples from patients treated with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone. A minority of the mutations detected in the primary sample (median 7.6%, range 4.8⁻66.2%) could not be detected in the matching relapse sample. Relapsed DLBCL samples showed a mild increase of mutations (median 12.5%, range 9.4⁻87.6%) as compared to primary tumor biopsies. We identified 264 genes possibly related to therapy resistance, including tyrosine kinases (n = 18), (transmembrane) glycoproteins (n = 73), and genes involved in the JAK-STAT pathway (n = 7). Among the potentially resistance related genes were PIM1, SOCS1, and MYC, which have been reported to convey a risk for treatment failure. In conclusion, we show modest temporal heterogeneity between paired tumor samples with the acquisition of new mutations and identification of genes possibly related to therapy resistance. The mutational evolution could have implications for treatment decisions and development of novel targeted drugs.

A software package to analyze next-generation resequencing data. The toolkit offers a wide variety of tools, with a primary focus on variant discovery and genotyping as well as strong emphasis on data quality assurance. Its robust architecture, powerful processing engine and high-performance computing features make it capable of taking on projects of any size. This software library makes writing efficient analysis tools using next-generation sequencing data very easy, and second it's a suite of tools for working with human medical resequencing projects such as 1000 Genomes and The Cancer Genome Atlas. These tools include things like a depth of coverage analyzers, a quality score recalibrator, a SNP/indel caller and a local realigner. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)
View all literature mentionsTHIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 9, 2023. An aggregated data platform for genome sequencing data created by a coalition of investigators seeking to aggregate and harmonize exome sequencing data from a variety of large-scale sequencing projects, and to make summary data available for the wider scientific community. The data set provided on this website spans 61,486 unrelated individuals sequenced as part of various disease-specific and population genetic studies. They have removed individuals affected by severe pediatric disease, so this data set should serve as a useful reference set of allele frequencies for severe disease studies. All of the raw data from these projects have been reprocessed through the same pipeline, and jointly variant-called to increase consistency across projects. They ask that you not publish global (genome-wide) analyses of these data until after the ExAC flagship paper has been published, estimated to be in early 2015. If you''re uncertain which category your analyses fall into, please email them. The aggregation and release of summary data from the exomes collected by the Exome Aggregation Consortium has been approved by the Partners IRB (protocol 2013P001477, Genomic approaches to gene discovery in rare neuromuscular diseases).
