Purple-grained barley (Hordeum vulgare L.): marker-assisted development of NILs for investigating peculiarities of the anthocyanin biosynthesis regulatory network

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Anthocyanins are plants secondary metabolites important for plant adaptation to severe environments and potentially beneficial to human health. Purple colour of barley grain is caused by the pigments synthesized in pericarp.

Molecular characterisation of human penile carcinoma and generation of paired epithelial primary cell lines

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Generation of two normal and tumour (cancerous) paired human cell lines using an established tissue culture technique and their characterisation is described. Cell lines were characterised at cellular, protein, chromosome and gene expression levels and for HPV status.

Genetics of Parkinson's disease: Dominant forms and GBA

Neurology Perspectives
Parkinson's disease (PD) accounts for a significant burden on modern society, with an increasingly rapid growth in cases. Variants of several genes have been linked to the risk of developing the disease (e.g., the GBA gene).

Strength through diversity: how cancers thrive when clones cooperate

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Intratumor heterogeneity can offer direct benefits to the tumor through cooperation between different clones. In this review, Kuiken et al. discuss existing evidence for clonal cooperativity to identify overarching principles, and highlight how novel technological developments could address remaining open questions.

Analysis of rare variants of autosomal‐dominant genes in a Chinese population with sporadic Parkinson’s disease

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2020
Background To date, several studies have suggested that genes involved in monogenic forms of Parkinson's disease (PD) contribute to unrelated sporadic cases, but there is limited evidence in the Chinese population.

Monitoring of circulating tumor DNA allows early detection of disease relapse in patients with operable breast cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Monitoring circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in patients with operable breast cancer can reveal disease relapse earlier than radiology in a subset of patients. The failure to detect ctDNA in some patients with recurrent disease suggests that ctDNA could serve as a supplement to other monitoring approaches.

Developing evidence‐based, cost‐effective P4 cancer medicine for driving innovation in prevention, therapeutics, patient care and reducing healthcare inequalities

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The cancer problem is increasing globally with projections up to the year 2050 showing unfavourable outcomes in terms of incidence and cancer‐related deaths. The main challenges are prevention, improved therapeutics resulting in increased cure rates and enhanced health‐related quality of life.

Crucial parameters for precise copy number variation detection in formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded solid cancer samples

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that copy number variations (CNVs) can be reliably detected in formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) solid cancer samples using ultra‐low‐pass whole‐genome sequencing, provided that key (pre)‐analytical parameters are optimized.

Phenylacetic acid metabolic genes are associated with Mycobacteroides abscessus dominant circulating clone 1

Microbiology Spectrum
Mycobacteroides abscessus (MAB) causes lung infections in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF), and infecting strains show significant genetic variability both between and within individuals. MAB isolates can be divided into dominant clonal clusters (DCCs)

Tomato Defense to Oldium neolycopersici: Dominant OI Genes Confer Isolate-Dependent Resistance Via a Different Mechanism Than Recessive oI-2

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2005
Tomato powdery mildew caused by Oidium neolycopersici has become a globally important disease of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum). To study the defense responses of tomato triggered by tomato powdery mildew, we first mapped a set of resistance genes to O.
