Mutated genes, pathways and processes in tumours
Integration of the many available sources of cancer gene information--such as large-scale tumour-resequencing studies--identifies the 'usual suspect' genes, mutated in many tumour types, as well as different sets of mutated genes according to the specific tumour type. Scaling-up the analysis reveals that this large collection of mutated genes cluster into a smaller number of signalling pathways...
متن کاملLow frequency of microsatellite instability in BRCA1 mutated breast tumours.
EDITOR—BRCA1 is one of the major breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility genes. Many studies have suggested that the BRCA1 protein is multifunctional. Notably, it may play a role in DNA repair, especially in double strand break (DSB) DNA repair by homologous recombination because (1) BRCA1 acts in association with Rad51, 2 (2) DNA damage induces its phosphorylation and delocalisation from nucl...

متن کاملIdentification of key genes and pathways involved in vitiligo vulgaris by gene network analysis
Background and Aim: Vitiligo vulgaris is an acquired, chronic skin and hair condition characterized clinically by loss of melanin, which, if untreated, is typically progressive and irreversible. The aim of the present study was to identify potential genes involved in the pathogenesis of vitiligo. Methods: One dataset of mRNA expression in patients with vitiligo (GSE65127) were obtained from ...
متن کاملGenes involved in angiogenesis and mTOR pathways are frequently mutated in Asian patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
Introduction: To address the issue of limited data on and inconsistent findings for genetic alterations in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs), we analyzed sequences of known pNET-associated genes for their impact on clinical outcomes in a Taiwanese cohort. Methods: Tissue samples from 40 patients with sporadic pNETs were sequenced using a customized sequencing panel that analyzed 43 genes...
