The Superfund Research Program Analytics Portal: linking environmental chemical exposure to biological phenotypes

The OSU/PNNL Superfund Research Program represents a longstanding collaboration to quantify Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) at various superfund sites in the Pacific Northwest and assess their potential impact on human health. To link the chemical measurements to biological activity, we describe the use of the zebrafish as a high-throughput developmental model of human exposure that provides quantitative measurements of the biological ramifications of exposure to toxicants. Toward this end, we have linked over 150 PAHs found at Superfund sites to the effect of these same chemicals in zebrafish, creating a rich dataset that links environmental exposure to biological response. To quantify this response, we have implemented a dose-response modelling pipeline to calculate benchmark dose parameters which enable potency comparison across over 500 chemicals and 10 zebrafish-specific phenotypes. Our portal provides public access to this dataset via an interactive web site designed to support exploration and re-use of these data by the scientific community at http://srp.pnnl.gov.

The AML microenvironment catalyzes a step-wise evolution to gilteritinib resistance

This study reports a stepwise evolution of gilteritinib resistance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) relapse, and identifies therapeutic vulnerabilities that could be exploited. Our in vitro model demonstrates that extrinsic microenvironmental factors within the bone marrow nurture the growth of residual cells that underlie early gilteritinib resistance. These early resistant cells exhibit a dependency upon Aurora B (AURKB) and undergo dynamic metabolic adaptations that fostered their transition to late resistance. In line with clinical observations of gilteritinib resistance, late resistant cells displayed an expansion of NRAS mutant subclones and a unique metabolic profile that originated during early resistance. Pharmacological inhibition of AURKB resensitized early resistant cells to gilteritinib. Early resistant cells from AML patients were found to display exquisite sensitivitye to AURKB inhibition. Together, our findings support that eradication of early resistant AML cells may increase the efficacy and durability of gilteritinib.

leapR: An R Package for Multiomic Pathway Analysis

A generalized goal of many high-throughput data studies is to identify functional mecha-nisms that underlie observed biological phenomena, whether disease outcomes or metabolic out-put. Increasingly, studies that rely on multiple sources of high-throughput data (genomic, tran-scriptomic, proteomic, metabolomic) are faced with a challenge of utilizing the data in a way that maximizes utility. However, methods for integration of multiple forms of molecular data into a biolog-ically coherent frameworks are needed. Furthermore, we have developed a framework to assess biological pathway activity that relates to phenotypic outcome using multi-source data. Availability and implementation: The leapR package with user manual and example workflow is available for download from GitHub (https://github.com/biodataganache/leapR).

PNNL Superfund Research Program Analytics (srpAnalytics Data Release v.1.0)

The OSU/PNNL superfund Research Program represents a longstanding collaboration to quantify Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons at various superfund sites in the Pacific Northwest and assess their potential impact on human health. To link the chemical measurements to biological activity, we describe the use of the zebrafish as a high-throughput developmental model of human exposure that provides quantitative measurements of the biological ramifications of exposure to toxicants. The PNNL Superfund have implemented a dose-response modelling pipeline to calculate benchmark dose parameters that enable the comparison of potency across chemicals and phenotypes. Our portal provides public access to this dataset and an interactive web site designed to enable exploration and re-use of this data by the scientific community at http://srp.pnnl.gov.
