p53 Genetics and Biology in Lung Carcinomas: Insights, Implications and Clinical Applications.

The gene is renowned as a tumor suppressor, playing a pivotal role in overseeing the cell cycle, apoptosis, and maintaining genomic stability. Dysregulation of p53 often contributes to the initiation and progression of various cancers, including lung cancer (LC) subtypes. The review explores the intricate relationship between p53 and its role in the development and progression of LC.

Next generation sequencing technologies to address aberrant mRNA translation in cancer.

In this review, we explore the transformative impact of next generation sequencing technologies in the realm of translatomics (the study of how translational machinery acts on a genome-wide scale). Despite the expectation of a direct correlation between mRNA and protein content, the complex regulatory mechanisms that affect this relationship remark the limitations of standard RNA-seq approaches. Then, the review characterizes crucial techniques such as polysome profiling, ribo-seq, trap-seq, proximity-specific ribosome profiling, rnc-seq, tcp-seq, qti-seq and scRibo-seq.
