Genomic landscape of pancreatic cancer in the Japanese version of the Cancer Genome Atlas

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, 2023
Background Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most aggressive cancers worldwide. Although many studies have investigated genomic alterations, the genomic landscape of Japanese PC patients has not been fully elucidated.

Genetics of strabismus

open access: yesFrontiers in Ophthalmology, 2023
Strabismus, or misalignment of the eyes, is the most common ocular disorder in the pediatric population, affecting approximately 2%–4% of children. Strabismus leads to the disruption of binocular vision, amblyopia, social and occupational discrimination,

Read Mapping, Variant Calling, and Copy Number Variation Detection in Segmental Duplications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Segmental duplications or low-copy repeats (LCRs) are long segments of duplicated DNA that cover more than 5% of the human genome and overlap more than 600 protein-coding genes.

Expanding the allelic spectrum of ELOVL4‐related autosomal recessive neuro‐ichthyosis

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2023
Background Very long‐chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) composed of more than 20 carbon atoms are essential in the biosynthesis of cell membranes in the brain, skin, and retina. VLCFAs are elongated beyond 28 carbon atoms by ELOVL4 enzyme. Variants in ELOVL4 are

GROM-RD: resolving genomic biases to improve read depth detection of copy number variants [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2015
Amplifications or deletions of genome segments, known as copy number variants (CNVs), have been associated with many diseases. Read depth analysis of next-generation sequencing (NGS) is an essential method of detecting CNVs. However, genome read coverage

Visualizing and exploring patterns of large mutational events with SigProfilerMatrixGenerator

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2023
Background All cancers harbor somatic mutations in their genomes. In principle, mutations affecting between one and fifty base pairs are generally classified as small mutational events.

“We Cannot Talk as a Family”: Complexities of Survivorship Communication Among Hispanic/Latino Young Adult Survivors of Childhood Cancer, Parents, and Clinicians

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Young adult childhood cancer survivors (YA‐CCS) have an increased risk of treatment‐related health complications throughout their lives. Lifelong survivorship care is recommended, yet many YA‐CCS experience disruptions in care during pediatric‐to‐adult transitions and do not receive recommended survivorship care.
