Exploration of cfDNA landscape in NIPT and clinical utilities of cfDNA based gene expression inference in prenatal diagnostics

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics
Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is a dynamic biomarker reflecting the physiological state of the body. Its unique physical and biochemical properties, inherited from the tissue of origin, enable a wide range of clinical applications.

NICE: A Two‐Step Non‐Invasive Framework for Embryo cfDNA Read Enrichment and Quality Assessment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The non‐invasive NICE framework, built on an ensemble stacking machine learning model, prioritizes embryos by analyzing cell‐free DNA from spent culture medium. By integrating multimodal signals, including genomic and epigenetic profiles, this automated approach standardizes morphological assessment without human bias, paving the way for more precise ...

Multimodal analysis of methylomics and fragmentomics in plasma cell-free DNA for multi-cancer early detection and localization

open access: yes, 2023
Despite their promise, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-based assays for multi-cancer early detection face challenges in test performance, due mostly to the limited abundance of ctDNA and its inherent variability.

Circulating Tumor DNA in Neurofibromatosis Type 1: Translating Molecular Discovery into Clinical Surveillance

open access: yesDiagnostics
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a genetic tumor predisposition syndrome characterized by a substantial risk of developing peripheral nerve sheath tumors, including malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs), which occur in 8–13% of patients ...

Characterization of fragment sizes, copy number aberrations and 4‐mer end motifs in cell‐free DNA of hepatocellular carcinoma for enhanced liquid biopsy‐based cancer detection

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2021
Circulating cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) fragmentomics, which encompasses the measurement of cfDNA length and short nucleotide motifs at the ends of cfDNA molecules, is an emerging field for cancer diagnosis.

Sizing and concentration analysis of cfDNA using Biabooster technology: Results from a prospective plasma‐based collection of 77 patients with locally advanced unresectable esophageal cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? This study introduces a novel approach for detecting locally advanced esophageal carcinoma using cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) analysis through a highly sensitive fragmentome assay. Unlike traditional sequencing‐based methods that are limited by the absence of specific mutations in esophageal tumors, our method offers an alternative by quantifying ...

Multi-signal cell-free DNA analysis for cancer detection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
In this thesis, we explored the potential of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) metrics for non-invasive cancer detection and therapy response prediction, leveraging whole genome sequencing (WGS) data. Our research was divided into two parts.
