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

Modular organization of cancer signaling networks is associated with patient survivability [PDF]
Molecular signaling networks are believed to determine cancer robustness. Although cancer patient survivability was reported to correlate with the heterogeneous connectivity of the signaling networks inspired by theoretical studies on the increase of network robustness due to the heterogeneous connectivity, other theoretical and data analytic studies ...

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 ...

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

CDMPred: a tool for predicting cancer driver missense mutations with high-quality passenger mutations [PDF]
Most computational methods for predicting driver mutations have been trained using positive samples, while negative samples are typically derived from statistical methods or putative samples.

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

Target enrichment using parallel nanoliter quantitative PCR amplification [PDF]
Background: Next generation targeted resequencing is replacing Sanger sequencing at high pace in routine genetic diagnosis. The need for well validated, high quality enrichment platforms to complement the bench-top next generation sequencing devices is ...

Loss-of-function cancer-linked mutations in the EIF4G2 non-canonical translation initiation factor
This work identifies missense mutations in the translation initiation factor EIF4G2 gene in cancer, showing loss-of-function effects on binding to interacting proteins and translational activity.
