A Spatial Simulation Approach to Account for Protein Structure When Identifying Non-Random Somatic Mutations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Current research suggests that a small set of "driver" mutations are responsible for tumorigenesis while a larger body of "passenger" mutations occurs in the tumor but does not progress the disease.

Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Non-Receptor 11 (PTPN11/Shp2) as a Driver Oncogene and a Novel Therapeutic Target in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
PTPN11 encodes the SHP2 protein tyrosine phosphatase that activates the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway upstream of KRAS and MEK. PTPN11/Shp2 somatic mutations occur frequently in Juvenile myelomonocytic leukaemia (JMML); however, the ...

Profiling the interactome of protein kinase C ζ by proteomics and bioinformatics

open access: yesProteome Science, 2018
Background Protein kinase C ζ (PKCζ), an isoform of the atypical protein kinase C, is a pivotal regulator in cancer. However, the molecular and cellular mechanisms whereby PKCζ regulates tumorigenesis and metastasis are still not fully understood.

Machine learning models-based on integration of next-generation sequencing testing and tumor cell sizes improve subtype classification of mature B-cell neoplasms

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
BackgroundNext-generation sequencing (NGS) panels for mature B-cell neoplasms (MBNs) are widely applied clinically but have yet to be routinely used in a manner that is suitable for subtype differential diagnosis.

Identification of novel therapeutic targets in the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in hepatocellular carcinoma using targeted next generation sequencing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Understanding genetic aberrations in cancer leads to discovery of new targets for cancer therapies. The genomic landscape of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been fully described. Therefore, patients with refractory advanced/metastatic HCC referred

The complex impact of cancer-related missense mutations on the stability and on the biophysical and biochemical properties of MAPK1 and MAPK3 somatic variants

open access: yesHuman Genomics, 2023
Mitogen-activated protein kinases 1 and 3 (MAPK1 and MAPK3), also called extracellular regulated kinases (ERK2 and ERK1), are serine/threonine kinase activated downstream by the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK signal transduction cascade that regulates a variety of ...

Computational Identification and Validation of Non-Synonymous SNPs in Progesterone Receptor Membrane Complex 1 Linked to Lung Cancer

open access: yesInternational journal of experimental research and review, 2023
Numerous gene polymorphisms have been attributed to Lung cancer, but PGRMC1 (Progesterone receptor membrane component 1) is a lesser-known candidate among them.

TNFAIP3 mutation may be associated with favorable overall survival for patients with T-cell lymphoma

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2021
Background T-cell lymphoma (TCL) is highly aggressive and has a poor prognosis; thus, it is worth exploring biomarkers that may predict clinical outcomes and investigate their potential role in developing targeted therapies.

Whole-exome sequencing and bioinformatic analyses revealed differences in gene mutation profiles in papillary thyroid cancer patients with and without benign thyroid goitre background

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundPapillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common thyroid malignancy. Concurrent presence of cytomorphological benign thyroid goitre (BTG) and PTC lesion is often detected. Aberrant protein profiles were previously reported in patients with and
