Ex vivo drug response phenotype related to the epistatic interaction between immunoglobulin heavy variable gene status and trisomy 12. (A) Heatmap plot showing the responses of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) samples (rows) towards the 6 drugs (columns) for which there was a significant interaction between immunoglobulin heavy variable (IGHV) gene mutation status and trisomy 12. The coloring encodes the column-wise z-scores of sample viabilities after drug treatment. (B) Boxplots of the viabilities (normalized to dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO] controls) of CLL samples, stratified by their IGHV and trisomy 12 status, towards the 6 drugs shown in the heatmap. The IGHV-unmutated (IGHV-U) and IGHV-mutated (IGHV-M) groups contain unmutated-CLL (U-CLL) and mutated-CLL (M-CLL) samples, respectively, without trisomy 12. The IGHV-U+tri12 and IGHV-M+tri12 groups contain U-CLL and M-CLL samples, respectively, with trisomy 12.
