Motivation: Next-generation sequencing technologies, such as whole genome sequencing (WGS), have become prominent in cancer genomics. However, managing, visualizing, and integratively analyzing WGS results across various bioinformatic pipelines remains challenging, particularly for non-bioinformaticians, hindering the usability of WGS data for biological discovery.
Results: We developed Sherlock-Genome, an R Shiny app for data harmonization, visualization, and integrative analysis of WGS-based cancer genomics studies. Following FAIR principles, Sherlock-Genome provides a platform and guidelines for managing and sharing finalized sample-level WGS analysis results, enabling users to upload results, inspect analyses locally, and perform integrative analyses. It includes modules for major cancer genomic analyses, allowing interactive data visualizations and integrative analyses with other data types. Sherlock-Genome supports both local and cloud deployment, facilitating the sharing of results for related publications. This tool has the potential to be widely adopted in cancer genomics, significantly enhancing the accessibility and usability of sample-level WGS analysis results for comprehensive biological discovery and research advancements.
Availability And Implementation: The source code and installation instructions for Sherlock-Genome can be accessed via Github https://github.com/xtmgah/Sherlock-Genome . Documentation and data requirements for user project data can also be found on the same GitHub page.

Purpose: Precision medicine plays an important role in the treatment of patients with advanced melanoma. Despite its high incidence in White patients, advanced melanoma is rare in Asian countries, hampering prospective clinical trials targeting the Asian population. This retrospective study aimed to elucidate the real-world molecular diagnoses and outcomes of Japanese patients with melanoma using comprehensive genome profiling (CGP).

Background And Objectives: Breast cancers (BCs) of patients with paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes and anti-Yo antibodies (Yo-PNS) overexpress human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and display genetic alterations and overexpression of the Yo-onconeural antigens. They are infiltrated by an unusual proportion of B cells. We investigated whether these features were also observed in patients with PNS and anti-Ri antibodies (Ri-PNS).

The study of mutational processes in somatic genomes has gained recent momentum, uncovering a wide array of endogenous and exogenous factors associated with somatic changes. However, the overall landscape of mutational processes in germline mutations across the tree of life and associated evolutionary driving forces are rather unclear. In this study, we analyzed mutational processes in single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) viruses which are known to jump between different hosts with divergent exogenous environments.

Trophoblast glycoprotein (TPBG) plays a significant part in the growth of specific cancers, yet its connection to gastric cancer (GC) remains uncertain. This research seeks to analyse the fluctuation in TPBG levels in GC and evaluate how TPBG expression relates to the prognosis of GC patients. TPBG expression in GC and normal gastric tissues was investigated in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) database, further extracting the immunohistochemistry images from HPA database and validating by Western blot.

Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) exhibits molecular heterogeneity, with mitochondrial damage affecting progression. The relationship between mitochondrial damage and immune infiltration, and Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA)-derived biomarkers for LUAD classification and prognosis, remains unexplored.
Aims: The objective of our research is to identify gene modules closely related to the clinical stages of LUAD using the WGCNA method.
