The atypical KRASQ22K mutation directs TGF‐β response towards partial epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in patient‐derived colorectal cancer tumoroids

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
TGF‐β has a complex role in cancer, exhibiting both tumor‐suppressive and tumor‐promoting properties. Using a series of differentiated tumoroids, derived from different stages and mutational background of colorectal cancer patients, we replicate this duality of TGF‐β in vitro. Notably, the atypical but highly aggressive KRASQ22K mutation rendered early‐

Multidimensional OMICs reveal ARID1A orchestrated control of DNA damage, splicing, and cell cycle in normal‐like and malignant urothelial cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the frequently mutated chromatin remodeler ARID1A, a subunit of the SWI/SNF cBAF complex, results in less open chromatin, alternative splicing, and the failure to stop cells from progressing through the cell cycle after DNA damage in bladder (cancer) cells. Created in BioRender. Epigenetic regulators, such as the SWI/SNF complex, with important

Targeted exome analysis of Russian patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2021
Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), described as the presence of hypertrophy of left ventricular, is the most prevalent heritable cardiovascular disease with predominantly an autosomal dominant type of inheritance.

MET and NF2 alterations confer primary and early resistance to first‐line alectinib treatment in ALK‐positive non‐small‐cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Alectinib resistance in ALK+ NSCLC depends on treatment sequence and EML4‐ALK variants. Variant 1 exhibited off‐target resistance after first‐line treatment, while variant 3 and later lines favored on‐target mutations. Early resistance involved off‐target alterations, like MET and NF2, while on‐target mutations emerged with prolonged therapy.

Mutation Clusters from Cancer Exome [PDF]

open access: yesGenes 8(8) (2017) 201, 2017
We apply our statistically deterministic machine learning/clustering algorithm *K-means (recently developed in https://ssrn.com/abstract=2908286) to 10,656 published exome samples for 32 cancer types. A majority of cancer types exhibit mutation clustering structure. Our results are in-sample stable.

Detecting homologous recombination deficiency for breast cancer through integrative analysis of genomic data

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study develops a semi‐supervised classifier integrating multi‐genomic data (1404 training/5893 validation samples) to improve homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) detection in breast cancer. Our method demonstrates prognostic value and predicts chemotherapy/PARP inhibitor sensitivity in HRD+ tumours.

Whole Exome Sequencing to Estimate Alloreactivity Potential Between Donors and Recipients in Stem Cell Transplantation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
Whole exome sequencing was performed on HLA-matched stem cell donors and transplant recipients to measure sequence variation contributing to minor histocompatibility antigen differences between the two. A large number of nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms were identified in each of the nine unique donor-recipient pairs tested. This variation

Dynamical System Modeling to Simulate Donor T Cell Response to Whole Exome Sequencing-Derived Recipient Peptides Demonstrates Different Alloreactivity Potential In HLA-Matched and Mismatched Donor-Recipient Pairs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
Stem cell transplants may be considered as dynamical systems to allow sequence differences across the exomes of the transplant donors and recipients to be used to simulate an alloreactive T cell response. Whole exome sequencing was performed on HLA matched stem cell transplant donor-recipient pairs, and the nucleotide sequence differences translated to

Polymorphism of the cold receptor gene TRPM8 in native populations of Siberia: putative selective role of rs11563208 polymorphism in Northeast Asia

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2017
The TRPM8 gene encodes the cold-activated receptor TRPM8, which has an important role in cold adaptation as well as in metabolic and immune responses. Previously, it has been found that polymorphic variants of the TRPM8 gene, which are present in human ...

Enhancing power of rare variant association test by Zoom-Focus Algorithm (ZFA) to locate optimal testing region [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Motivation: Exome or targeted sequencing data exerts analytical challenge to test single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with extremely small minor allele frequency (MAF). Various rare variant tests were proposed to increase power by aggregating SNPs within a fixed genomic region, such as a gene or pathway. However, a gene could contain from several to
