Published: June 2019

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) represents a prototype disease in which TP53 gene defects lead to inferior prognosis. Here, we present two distinct methodologies which can be used to identify TP53 mutations in CLL patients; both protocols are primarily intended for research purposes. The functional analysis of separated alleles in yeast (FASAY) can be flexibly adapted to a variable number of samples and provides an immediate functional readout of identified mutations. Amplicon-based next-generation sequencing then allows for a high throughput and accurately detects subclonal TP53 variants (sensitivity <1% of mutated cells).

Background: Integrating multi-layered information can enhance the accuracy of genomic prediction for complex traits. However, the improvement and application of effective strategies for genomic prediction (GP) using multi-omics data remains challenging.

Methods: We generated 11 feature sets for sequencing variants from genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, and epigenetics data in beef cattle, then we assessed the contribution of functional variants using genomic restricted maximum likelihood (GREML).

Background: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a persistent neurodevelopmental disorder affecting brains of children. Mounting evidences support the associations between gut microbial dysbiosis and ASD, whereas detailed mechanisms are still obscure.

Methods: Here we probed the potential roles of gut microbiome in ASD using fecal metagenomics and metabolomics.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the molecular mechanisms by which YWHAG (Tyrosine 3-Monooxygenase/Tryptophan 5-Monooxygenase Activation Protein Gamma) promotes metastasis in bladder cancer. Specifically, it seeks to elucidate the role of YWHAG in driving cancer cell invasion and its potential as a prognostic marker for bladder cancer progression.

Methods: The expression pattern of YWHAG in both primary and metastatic bladder cancer tissues was analyzed using immunohistochemistry (IHC) to determine its correlation with clinical stage and prognosis in bladder cancer patients.

Background: Patient-derived organoids (PDOs) represent a promising approach for replicating the characteristics of original tumors and facilitating drug testing for personalized treatments across diverse cancer types. However, clinical evidence regarding their application to esophageal cancer remains limited. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of implementing PDOs in clinical practice to benefit patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
