Cell‐free epigenomes enhanced fragmentomics‐based model for early detection of lung cancer

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine
Background Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer mortality, highlighting the need for innovative non‐invasive early detection methods. Although cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) analysis shows promise, its sensitivity in early‐stage lung cancer patients remains a

Comprehensive fragmentation of cell-free repetitive DNA for enhanced cancer detection in plasma [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
BackgroundRepetitive elements account for a large proportion of the human genome and undergo alterations during early tumorigenesis. However, the exclusive fragmentation pattern of DNA-derived cell-free repetitive elements (cfREs) remains unclear ...

A standardized framework for robust fragmentomic feature extraction from cell-free DNA sequencing data [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biology
Fragmentomics features of cell-free DNA represent promising non-invasive biomarkers for cancer diagnosis. A lack of systematic evaluation of biases in feature quantification hinders the adoption of such applications.

Systematic biases in reference-based plasma cell-free DNA fragmentomic profiling

open access: yesCell Reports Methods
Plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) fragmentation patterns are emerging directions in cancer liquid biopsy with high translational significance. Conventionally, the cfDNA sequencing reads are aligned to a reference genome to extract their fragmentomic features.

Circulating nuclear DNA structural features, origins, and complete size profile revealed by fragmentomics

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2021
To unequivocally address their unresolved intimate structures in blood, we scrutinized the size distribution of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) using whole-genome sequencing (WGS) from both double- and single-strand DNA library preparations (DSP and ...

Early detection of urological tumors based on genomic characteristics of cell-free DNA fragments: a multi-center study [PDF]

open access: yesnpj Precision Oncology
Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has shown potential in distinguishing cancer patients from healthy individuals. This study investigates cfDNA fragmentomics—fragmentation patterns, end motifs (EDMs), and breakpoint motifs (BPMs)—to develop an early detection method
