Abstract

Abstract BACKGROUND Driver single nucleotide variants (SNV) and somatic copy number aberrations (SCNA) of pediatric high-grade glioma (pHGGs), including Diffuse Midline Gliomas (DMGs) are characterized. However, structural variants (SVs) in pHGGs and the mechanisms through which they contribute to glioma formation have not been systematically analyzed genome-wide. METHODS Using SvABA for SVs as well as the latest pipelines for SCNAs and SNVs we analyzed whole-genome sequencing from 174 patients. This includes 60 previously unpublished samples, 43 of which are DMGs. Signature analysis allowed us to define pHGG groups with shared SV characteristics. Significantly recurring SV breakpoints and juxtapositions were identified with algorithms we recently developed and the findings were correlated with RNAseq and H3K27ac ChIPseq. RESULTS The SV characteristics in pHGG showed three groups defined by either complex, intermediate or simple signature activities. These associated with distinct combinations of known driver oncogenes. Our statistical analysis revealed recurring SVs in the topologically associating domains of MYCN, MYC, EGFR, PDGFRA & MET. These correlated with increased mRNA expression and amplification of H3K27ac peaks. Complex recurring amplifications showed characteristics of extrachromosomal amplicons and were enriched in coding SVs splitting protein regulatory from effector domains. Integrative analysis of all SCNAs, SNVs & SVs revealed patterns of characteristic combinations between potential drivers and signatures. This included two distinct groups of H3K27M DMGs with either complex or simple signatures and different combinations of associated variants. CONCLUSION Recurrent SVs associate with signatures shaped by an underlying process, which can lead to distinct mechanisms to activate the same oncogene.

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
