Copy number variations and stroke [PDF]

Neurological Sciences, 2016
Stroke is the third leading cause of death worldwide after heart disease and all forms of cancers. Monogenic disorders, genetic, and environmental risk factors contribute to damaging cerebral blood vessels and, consequently, cause stroke. Developments in genomic research led to the discovery of numerous copy number variants (CNVs) that have been ...

A comprehensive survey of copy number variation in 18 diverse pig populations and identification of candidate copy number variable genes associated with complex traits

BMC Genomics, 2012
Background Copy number variation (CNV) is a major source of structural variants and has been commonly identified in mammalian genome. It is associated with gene expression and may present a major genetic component of phenotypic diversity.

An integrated genomic analysis of lung cancer reveals loss of DUSP4 in EGFR-mutant tumors. [PDF]

, 2009
To address the biological heterogeneity of lung cancer, we studied 199 lung adenocarcinomas by integrating genome-wide data on copy number alterations and gene expression with full annotation for major known somatic mutations in this cancer.

Copy number variation in the horse genome. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2014
We constructed a 400K WG tiling oligoarray for the horse and applied it for the discovery of copy number variations (CNVs) in 38 normal horses of 16 diverse breeds, and the Przewalski horse.

Determination of plasmid copy number in yeast transformants by means of agarose plugs [PDF]

, 1993
The determination of plasmid copy number in Saccharomyces cerevisiaetransformants containing circular or linear plasmids is currently performed with total yeast DNA extracts obtained from cultures grown under selection.

Feasibility and Safety of High‐Dose Proton Re‐Irradiation in Recurrent Pediatric Central Nervous System Tumors: A Single‐Institution Retrospective Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Pediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumors often recur despite multimodality therapy. Although re‐irradiation (re‐RT) has historically been limited by concerns for severe late toxicities, modern techniques have renewed interest in this approach. Proton therapy provides dosimetric advantages that may enable curative re‐treatment with

A hierarchical Bayesian model for inference of copy number variants and their association to gene expression [PDF]

, 2014
A number of statistical models have been successfully developed for the analysis of high-throughput data from a single source, but few methods are available for integrating data from different sources.

Copy number variations among silkworms [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2014
Abstract Background Copy number variations (CNVs), which are important source for genetic and phenotypic variation, have been shown to be associated with disease as well as important QTLs, especially in domesticated animals. However, little is known about the CNVs in silkworm. Results

Defining Roles in Pediatric Palliative Care: Perspectives From Oncology and Palliative Care Teams

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Early integration of pediatric palliative care (PPC) is associated with improved symptom management, quality of life, and healthcare utilization for children with cancer. Despite this, variation persists in how PPC is understood, operationalized, and integrated within pediatric oncology programs. In particular, ambiguity surrounding

Copy number normalization distinguishes differential signals driven by copy number differences in ATAC-seq and ChIP-seq

BMC Genomics
A common objective across ATAC-seq and ChIP-seq analyses is to identify differential signals across contrasted conditions. However, in differential analyses, the impact of copy number variation is often overlooked.
