A unified data repository of the National Cancer Institute (NCI)'s Genomic Data Commons (GDC) that enables data sharing across cancer genomic studies in support of precision medicine. The GDC supports several cancer genome programs at the NCI Center for Cancer Genomics (CCG), including The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Therapeutically Applicable Research to Generate Effective Treatments (TARGET), and the Cancer Genome Characterization Initiative (CGCI). The GDC Data Portal provides a platform for efficiently querying and downloading high quality and complete data. The GDC also provides a GDC Data Transfer Tool and a GDC API for programmatic access.

The GDC Data Portal is a robust data-driven platform that allows cancer researchers and bioinformaticians to search and download cancer data for analysis.

The Cancer Genome Atlas Breast Invasive Carcinoma (TCGA-BRCA) data collection is part of a larger effort to build a research community focused on connecting cancer phenotypes to genotypes by providing clinical images matched to subjects from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Clinical, genetic, and pathological data resides in the Genomic Data Commons (GDC) Data Portal while the radiological data is stored on The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA).

Matched TCGA patient identifiers allow researchers to explore the TCGA/TCIA databases for correlations between tissue genotype, radiological phenotype and patient outcomes. Tissues for TCGA were collected from many sites all over the world in order to reach their accrual targets, usually around 500 specimens per cancer type. For this reason the image data sets are also extremely heterogeneous in terms of scanner modalities, manufacturers and acquisition protocols. In most cases the images were acquired as part of routine care and not as part of a controlled research study or clinical trial.

TCGA RNA-seq V2 Level3 data were downloaded from TCGA Genomic Data Commons Data Portal (https://gdc-portal.nci.nih.gov), consisting of 11,303 samples in 34 cancer projects (33 cancer types). Nine cancer types that do not have corresponding non-tumour samples were filtered out, and the analysis was focused on tumour versus non-tumour comparison. 24 cancer types were used in this meta-analysis: BLCA, BRCA, CESC, CHOL, COAD, ESCA, GBM, HNSC, KICH, KIRC, KIRP, LIHC, LUAD, LUSC, PAAD, PCPG, PRAD, READ, SARC, SKCM, STAD, THCA, THYM, UCEC (https://gdc-portal.nci.nih.gov). The nine filtered cancer types were ACC, DLBC, LAML, LGG, MESO, OV, TGCT, UCS and UVM. To extract expression values from TCGA RNA-seq data, we used genomic coordinates to retrieve UCSC Transcript IDs that correspond to the identifiers in TCGA RNA-seq V2 Level3 data (isoform level). The GAF (General Annotation Format) file was used to map the coordinate to UCSC Transcript ID, and it was downloaded form https://tcga-data.nci.nih.gov/docs/GAF/GAF.hg19.June2011.bundle/outputs/TCGA.hg19.June2011.gaf. This file contains genomic annotations shared by all TCGA projects. More details of the GAF file format can be found at https://tcga-data.nci.nih.gov/docs/GAF/GAF3.0/GAF_v3_file_description.docx. We filtered out any coding exons overlapping UCSC Transcript IDs to eliminate expression value of coding genes and evaluate lncRNA expression.We could find the expression values of 443 pcRNAs and 203 tapRNAs in TCGA data, as many of non-coding regions are not yet fully annotated in the TCGA RNA-seq V2 Level3 data. The expression value of pcRNAs and tapRNAs were extracted and clustered by un-supervised Pearson correlation method (Supplementary Figure 18A). The expression values of tapRNA-associated coding genes were also extracted and used to generate the heat-map (Supplementary Figure 18B), which shows the similar pattern of expression with tapRNAs across the cancer types.To show that tapRNAs and associated coding genes have similar expression profiles in cancers we generated a Spearman's Rank-Order Correlation heatmap (Figure 6A) between tapRNAs and their associated coding genes based on the TCGA RNA-seq data. We used the MatLab function corr to calculate the Spearman's rho. This function takes two matrices X (197-by-8,850 expression profiling matrix of tapRNA) and Y (197-by-8,850 expression profiling matrix of tapRNA-assocated coding gene) and returns an 8,850-by-8,850 matrix containing the pairwise correlation coefficient between each pair of 8,850 columns (TCGA cancer samples in Supplementary Figure 18A and B). Thus, the rank-order correlation matrix that we computed from the matrices of expression profiling data (Supplementary Figure S18A and B) allowed us to compare the correlation between two column vectors i.e. cancer samples. This function also returns a matrix of p-values for testing the hypothesis of no correlation against the alternative that there is a nonzero correlation. Each element of a matrix of p-values is the p value for the corresponding element of Spearman's rho. The p-values for Spearman's rho are calculated using large-sample approximations. To check significance level of correlation between tapRNA and its associated coding gene, the diagonal of the p-value matrix was extracted and used. The median is 1.31x10-11 and the mean is 1.03x10-4 with standard deviation 0.0029.To identify cancer-specific tapRNAs, we considered not only the global expression pattern of a given tapRNA in each cancer type, but also expression pattern of specific sub-group that is significantly distinct, to take into account cancer sample heterogeneity. Thus, two conditions were applied: (1) average expression level of a tapRNA in a given cancer type is in top 10% or bottom 10% and (2) a tapRNA has at least 10% of samples in a given cancer type that are significantly up-regulated (Z-score > 2) or down-regulated (Z-score < -2).

Bioinformatics analysis of CEP350 tumor suppression in human TCGA cutaneous melanoma. Publicly available datasets were downloaded from Genomic Data Commons Data Portal using data from the The Cancer Genome Atlas Program and the International Cancer Genome Consortium Data Portal for statistical analyses using R and Shiny.Supplementary datasets and other information accompanying manuscript: Tumor Suppressive Functions of CEP350 in Cutaneous Melanoma Cells by Aziz Aiderus, Bin Fang, John M. Koomen and Michael B. Mann.Abstract: We previously identified Cep350 as a novel melanoma haploinsufficient melanoma tumor suppressor gene using SB transposon-mediated mutagenesis to drive melanoma progression in Braf(V600E) mutant (SB|Braf) mice functionally demonstrated that the human CEP350 ortholog is a new melanoma tumor-suppressor gene in human cancer cell lines (Mann et al., Nature Genetics, 2015). Further dissection of the latent tumor suppressive functions of CEP350 in cutaneous melanoma cells is essential for understanding its role in melanoma imitation and progression. In this work, we investigated the role of the novel tumor suppressive functions of CEP350 in cutaneous melanoma cells using comparative informatics, molecular oncology, and proteomics approaches to demonstrate that CEP350 acts via altered cytoskeletal dynamics to contribute to BRAF-V600E driven melanoma.

Summary statistics are fundamental to data science, and are the buidling blocks of statistical reasoning. Most of the data and statistics made available on government web sites are aggregate, however, until now, we have not had a suitable linked data representation available. We propose a way to express summary statistics across aggregate groups as linked data using Web Ontology Language (OWL) Class based sets, where members of the set contribute to the overall aggregate value. Additionally, many clinical studies in the biomedical field rely on demographic summaries of their study cohorts and the patients assigned to each arm. While most data query languages, including SPARQL, allow for computation of summary statistics, they do not provide a way to integrate those values back into the RDF graphs they were computed from. We represent this knowledge, that would otherwise be lost, through the use of OWL 2 punning semantics, the expression of aggregate grouping criteria as OWL classes with variables, and constructs from the Semanticscience Integrated Ontology (SIO), and the World Wide Web Consortium's provenance ontology, PROV-O, providing interoperable representations that are well supported across the web of Linked Data. We evaluate these semantics using a Resource Description Framework (RDF) representation of patient case information from the Genomic Data Commons, a data portal from the National Cancer Institute.

Collection description

The Molecular Characterization Initiative (MCI) [2] is a component of the National Cancer Institute’s (NCI) Childhood Cancer Data Initiative (CCDI). It offers state-of-the-art molecular testing at no cost to newly diagnosed children, adolescents, and young adults (AYAs) with central nervous system (CNS) tumors, soft tissue sarcomas (STS), certain rare childhood cancers (RAR), and certain neuroblastomas (NBL) treated at a Children’s Oncology Group (COG)–affiliated hospital. The goal of MCI is to enhance the understanding of genetic factors in pediatric cancers and to provide timely, clinically relevant findings to doctors and families to aid in treatment decisions and determine eligibility for certain planned COG clinical trials.

The original images in vendor-specific format were collected on IRB-approved clinical trials or tissue banking studies from Children’s Oncology Group (COG) patients enrolled in EveryChild APEC14B1 protocol.

Those images, augmented with the metadata describing their content, were provided to the IDC team for the purposes of archival, and were converted into DICOM Whole Slide Microscopy (SM) representation [3,4] using custom open source scripts and tools as described in [5]. The resulting converted images were released in IDC in the CCDI-MCI collection with the IDC data release v19.

BackgroundImmunological-related genes (IRGs) play a critical role in the immune microenvironment of tumors. Our study aimed to develop an IRG-based survival prediction model for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and to investigate the impact of IRGs on the immune microenvironment.MethodsDifferentially expressed IRGs were obtained from The Genomic Data Commons Data Portal (TCGA) and the immunology database and analysis portal (ImmPort). The univariate Cox regression was used to identify the IRGs linked to overall survival (OS), and a Lasso-regularized Cox proportional hazard model was constructed. The International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) database was used to verify the prediction model. ESTIMATE and CIBERSORT were used to estimate immune cell infiltration in the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME). RNA sequencing was performed on HCC tissue specimens to confirm mRNA expression.ResultsA total of 401 differentially expressed IRGs were identified, and 63 IRGs were found related to OS on the 237 up-regulated IRGs by univariate Cox regression analyses. Finally, five IRGs were selected by the LASSO Cox model, including SPP1, BIRC5, STC2, GLP1R, and RAET1E. This prognostic model demonstrated satisfactory predictive value in the ICGC dataset. The risk score was an independent predictive predictor for OS in HCC patients. Immune-related analysis showed that the immune infiltration level in the high-risk group was higher, suggesting that the 5-IRG signature may play an important role in mediating immune escape and immune resistance in the TIME of HCC. Finally, we confirmed the 5-IRG signature is highly expressed in 65 HCC patients with good predictive power.ConclusionWe established and verified a new prognosis model for HCC patients based on survival-related IRGs, and the signature could provide new insights into the prognosis of HCC.
