A considerable amount of evidence showed that, in addition to mutations and homozygous deletions, frequent promoter methylation of the p16 gene, which results in transcriptional silencing, is a key event in the development of EC [26,84]. Guida et al., utilized the MSP assay (methylation-specifi...
NIPT can be used to screen for other common chromosomal aneuploidies, such as trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome) and trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome) or single-gene mutations [2,16]. The gap between clinical trials and clinical practice is smaller than between scientific studies and clinical practice. ...

If one DDR pathway is compromised and not functional, e.g., due to mutations in one or more DNA repair genes, the cancer cell attempts to restore the DNA damage utilizing the backup repair mechanism. However, if this backup mechanism is pharmacologically targeted, the cancer cell has no ...
Due to the shorter gestation length, Kari has received much attention from the local farmers; however, crossbreeding is in practice to enhance wool production and adult weight. It is posing a risk to the uniqueness and genetic pool of Kari sheep, which still needs to be discovered [1]. DNA...
while 12% had pathogenic/likely pathogenic germline alterations. The key genes that were altered includedAR,TP53,RB1,PTEN, andAPC. Mutations inBRCA1/2, either germline or somatic, were observed in 21% of the patients. Among the metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients, ...
Mutations in EGFR were the most common overall (824, 29.7%), largely driven by a high prevalence in patients previously treated with targeted therapy (573/770, 91.5%). For example, among 490 patients who received a first- or second-generation EGFR-TKI and for whom ctDNA was detected in ...
Thus, the profiling of mtDNA mutations and copy number variations is receiving increasing attention for its possible role in the early diagnosis and monitoring therapies of human cancers. This applies particularly to highly aggressive pancreatic cancer, which is often diagnosed late and is associated ...
