Integrating summarized data from multiple genetic variants in Mendelian randomization: bias and coverage properties of inverse-variance weighted methods [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
Mendelian randomization is the use of genetic variants as instrumental variables to assess whether a risk factor is a cause of a disease outcome. Increasingly, Mendelian randomization investigations are conducted on the basis of summarized data, rather than individual-level data.

Crosstalk between gut microbiota and tumor: tumors could cause gut dysbiosis and metabolic imbalance

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this research, we analyzed the relationship between gut microbiota and tumor. We discovered that both subcutaneous and metastatic tumors would alter the composition and metabolic function of gut microbiota. Meanwhile, fecal microbiota transplantation also indicated the anti‐tumor role of the gut microbiota, revealing the crosstalk between tumor and ...

Unveiling the Genetic and Phenotypic Landscape of a Chinese Cohort With Retinitis Pigmentosa

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine
Introduction Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a type of inherited retinal degeneration (IRD) that typically leads to vision loss in individuals of working age. Currently, over 100 genes and loci, as well as over 1000 individual variants, have been identified

Clinical Interpretation and Management of Genetic Variants

JACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2020
Genetic variants are major determinants of susceptibility to disease, response to therapy, and clinical outcomes. Advances in the short-read sequencing technologies, despite some shortcomings, have enabled identification of the vast majority of the genetic variants in each genome.

Integrative analysis of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and exosomes from small‐cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients: a comprehensive approach

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study simultaneously investigated circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and exosomes from small‐cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients. The elevated expression of JUNB and CXCR4 in CTCs was a poor prognostic factor for SCLC patients, whereas exosomal overexpression of these biomarkers revealed a high discrimination ability of patients from healthy individuals,

NME1 and DCC variants are associated with susceptibility and tumor characteristics in Mexican patients with colorectal cancer

Journal of the Egyptian National Cancer Institute
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks third in cancer incidence globally and is the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality. The nucleoside diphosphate kinase 1 (NME1) and netrin 1 receptor (DCC) genes have been associated with resistance ...

The accumulation of myeloid‐derived suppressor cells participates in abdominal infection‐induced tumor progression through the PD‐L1/PD‐1 axis

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study explores how sepsis affects GC progression by creating an immunosuppressive environment. Our findings reveal that sepsis promotes immune dysregulation, enhancing tumor growth and metastasis. Targeting the PD‐1/PD‐L1 pathway with monoclonal antibodies shows potential for restoring immune function and improving outcomes in cancer patients ...

Improvement of variant reclassification in genetic neurodevelopmental conditions

Genetics in Medicine Open
Purpose: Limited knowledge about disease mechanisms, few published cases, and the lack of functional assessment of variants for neurodevelopmental genetic disorders challenge diagnostic classification for variants and increase the frequency of variants ...
