A role for SETD2 loss in tumorigenesis through DNA methylation dysregulation
BMC Cancer, 2023 SETD2-dependent H3 Lysine-36 trimethylation (H3K36me3) has been recently linked to the deposition of de-novo DNA methylation. SETD2 is frequently mutated in cancer, however, the functional impact of SETD2 loss and depletion on DNA methylation across ...

Clinical experience of immune checkpoint inhibitor for a metastatic jejunal cancer patient with a high tumor mutational burden and low expression of programmed death-ligand 1 [PDF]
Korean Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2020 Recent data showed that DNA mismatch repair deficiency can be a predictive biomarker for a favorable response of immune checkpoint inhibitors regardless of tumor type due to give rise to high tumor mutational burden (TMB) and microsatellite instability ...
