Routes for breaching and protecting genetic privacy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
We are entering the era of ubiquitous genetic information for research, clinical care, and personal curiosity. Sharing these datasets is vital for rapid progress in understanding the genetic basis of human diseases. However, one growing concern is the ability to protect the genetic privacy of the data originators.

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

Rare manifestation of a c.290 C\u3eT, p.Gly97Glu VCP mutation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Introduction. The valosin-containing protein (VCP) regulates several distinct cellular processes. Consistent with this, VCP mutations manifest variable clinical phenotypes among and within families and are a diagnostic challenge. Methods.

GestaltMML: Enhancing Rare Genetic Disease Diagnosis through Multimodal Machine Learning Combining Facial Images and Clinical Texts [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Individuals with suspected rare genetic disorders often undergo multiple clinical evaluations, imaging studies, laboratory tests and genetic tests, to find a possible answer over a prolonged period of time. Addressing this "diagnostic odyssey" thus has substantial clinical, psychosocial, and economic benefits.

Modifications in FLAP's second cytosolic loop influence 5‐LOX interaction, inhibitor binding, and leukotriene formation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The enzyme 5‐lipoxygenase (5‐LOX) catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of leukotrienes (LTs) involved in inflammatory pathophysiology. After cellular stimulation, 5‐LOX translocates to the nucleus, interacting with the 5‐LOX‐activating protein (FLAP) to form LTA4 from arachidonic acid (AA).

Clinical practice improvement in the genetics clinic [PDF]

open access: yesHereditary Cancer in Clinical Practice, 2012
Quality in health is defined as ‘doing the right thing, the first time, in the right way, and at the right time”. A model for practical quality improvement in the genetic unit will be presented, along with tools and techniques relevant to the practice of clinical genetics, and examples from real life practice.

Outcomes of Genetic Testing in a Genitourinary Genetics Clinic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Several known hereditary cancer syndromes confer an increased risk for genitourinary (GU)related malignancies. Various guidelines indicate when to refer patients to genetic counseling for GU-related hereditary cancer syndromes but there is limited ...

Multivariate Feature Selection and Autoencoder Embeddings of Ovarian Cancer Clinical and Genetic Data [PDF]

open access: yes
This study explores a data-driven approach to discovering novel clinical and genetic markers in ovarian cancer (OC). Two main analyses were performed: (1) a nonlinear examination of an OC dataset using autoencoders, which compress data into a 3-dimensional latent space to detect potential intrinsic separability between platinum-sensitive and platinum ...

B cell mechanobiology in health and disease: emerging techniques and insights into therapeutic responses

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...
