Outcomes of pregnancies that screened positive for sex chromosome aneuploidy ascertained via cell‐free DNA screening

open access: yesJournal of Genetic Counseling, Volume 34, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Cell‐free DNA screening (cfDNA), also referred to as noninvasive prenatal screening (NIPS), is utilized to screen for fetal chromosomal aneuploidies during pregnancy, including sex chromosome aneuploidies (SCAs). All patients within our center are offered diagnostic testing following a positive cfDNA for an SCA, but not all patients pursue ...

G Protein‐Coupled Receptor Signaling: Implications and Therapeutic Development Advances in Cancers

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 10, October 2025.
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the dynamic protein family in the human genome. GPCR dysregulation aids in the advancement of cancer through increased migration, survival, and proliferation. Novel treatments that target GPCR signaling include orthosteric ligands, biased receptor mutants, PROTACs, and antibody–drug conjugates.
