pCRM1exportome: database of predicted CRM1-dependent Nuclear Export Signal (NES) motifs in cancer-related genes

open access: yesBioinform., 2019
MOTIVATION The consensus pattern of Nuclear Export Signal (NES) is a short sequence motif that is commonly identified in protein sequences, whether the motif acts as an NES (true positive) or not (false positive).

Analysis and Interpretation of the Impact of Missense Variants in Cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Large scale genome sequencing allowed the identification of a massive number of genetic variations, whose impact on human health is still unknown. In this review we analyze, by an in silico-based strategy, the impact of missense variants on cancer ...

Severity of effect considerations regarding the use of mutation as a toxicological endpoint for risk assessment: A report from the 8th International Workshop on Genotoxicity Testing (IWGT)

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.

Comprehensive genomic characterization of cutaneous malignant melanoma cell lines derived from metastatic lesions by whole-exome sequencing and SNP array profiling. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Cutaneous malignant melanoma is the most fatal skin cancer and although improved comprehension of its pathogenic pathways allowed to realize some effective molecular targeted therapies, novel targets and drugs are still needed.

Utilizing Protein Structure to Identify Non-Random Somatic Mutations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Motivation: Human cancer is caused by the accumulation of somatic mutations in tumor suppressors and oncogenes within the genome. In the case of oncogenes, recent theory suggests that there are only a few key "driver" mutations responsible for ...

Loss of the candidate tumor suppressor ZEB1 (TCF8, ZFHX1A) in Sézary syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma is a group of incurable extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphomas that develop from the skin-homing CD4+ T cell. Mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome are the most common histological subtypes.

Polygenic risk score and prostate specific antigen predict death from prostate cancer in men with intermediate aggressive cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Using 21 SNPs, two novel PRS were constructed and used to develop two new machine‐learning classifiers, one for the detection of prostate cancer and the other for the prediction of its aggressiveness and subsequent mortality. The classifier for disease detection is built using the PRS as the sole feature, whereas the one for disease ...

BcCluster: a bladder cancer database at the molecular level [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Bladder Cancer (BC) has two clearly distinct phenotypes. Non-muscle invasive BC has good prognosis and is treated with tumor resection and intravesical therapy whereas muscle invasive BC has poor prognosis and requires usually systemic ...

Detecting TP53 mutations in paired liquid and tissue biopsies from patients with high‐grade serous ovarian carcinoma

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? High‐grade serous ovarian carcinoma is often diagnosed at advanced stages due to non‐specific symptoms and the lack of reliable screening methods. This proof‐of‐concept study introduces a novel TP53 mutation panel using unique molecular identifier‐based next‐generation sequencing for sensitive detection of high‐grade serous ovarian ...

Chinese pan‐cancer patient genomic characteristics: A comprehensive analysis based on the National Cancer Center–Clinical Diagnostics Knowledgebase real‐world clinical sequencing cohort

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
We assembled National Cancer Center–Clinical Diagnostics Knowledgebase, a clinical genomic knowledgebase of 6935 tumors with matched normal samples, revealing key somatic alterations and actionable variants (70.2% of the cohort). Enrichment of certain different gene mutations was observed between Chinese and American populations, along with a strong ...
