The price of whole-genome and -exome sequencing has fallen to the point where these methods can be applied to clinical medicine. Here, we outline the lessons we have learned in converting a sequencing laboratory designed for research into a fully functional clinical program.

Purpose/background: Clozapine is the recommended drug for treatment-resistant schizophrenia. Drug response could be affected by numerous factors such as age, sex, body mass index, co-medication, consumption of xanthine-containing beverages, smoking, and genetic variants of the enzymes involved in clozapine metabolism (CYP1A2, CYP3A4, and, to a lesser extent, CYP2C19 and CYP2D6). This study evaluated genetic and nongenetic variables that may affect clozapine plasma concentrations in Uruguayan patients with schizophrenia.

Purpose: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC), exhibiting remarkable heterogeneity, can be highly infiltrated by regulatory T cells (Tregs). However, the relationship between Treg and the heterogeneity of RCC remains to be explored.
Methods: We acquired single-cell RNA-seq profiles and 537 bulk RNA-seq profiles of TCGA-KIRC cohort.

Background: Low-grade glioma (LGG) is a slow-growing but invasive tumor that affects brain function. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play a critical role in gene regulation and tumor progression. This study aims to develop a prognostic model based on HDAC-related genes to aid in risk stratification and predict therapeutic responses.

Background: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) represents a common renal carcinoma subtype influenced by the immune microenvironment. LIM and SH3 Protein 2 (LASP2), an actin-binding protein within the nebulin family, contributes to cellular immunity and adhesion mechanisms.
Objective: This study aimed to clarify the immunological and prognostic relevance of LASP2 in ccRCC.
