The Vaginal Microbiome: Disease, Genetics and the Environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The vagina is an interactive interface between the host and the environment. Its surface is covered by a protective epithelium colonized by bacteria and other microorganisms.

Superstring Graph: A New Approach for Genome Assembly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
With the increasing impact of genomics in life sciences, the inference of high quality, reliable, and complete genome sequences is becoming critical. Genome assembly remains a major bottleneck in bioin-formatics: indeed, high throughput sequencing apparatus yield millions of short sequencing reads that need to be merged based on their overlaps.

Tumor B‐cell infiltration in platinum‐treated advanced muscle‐invasive urothelial carcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Bladder tumors with higher pretreatment memory B‐cell infiltration were linked to longer survival after cisplatin chemotherapy, but not carboplatin. These tumors also showed more organized immune structures (tertiary lymphoid structures) and a shared pro‐inflammatory B‐cell‐rich community, suggesting that memory B cells may help identify patients most ...

Liquid biopsy‐based diagnostic evaluation of hypermethylated CpG sites for ovarian cancer diagnosis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This schematic outlines the workflow from biomarker identification to duplex MethyLight assay validation for epithelial ovarian cancer diagnosis using cfDNA‐based liquid biopsy. Initial screening of hypermethylated CpG candidates (cg02957270, cg10061138 cg00480298, COL2A1) was performed in tissue using ARMS‐PCR, COBRA, qPCR and image analysis. Selected

GraphTyper2 enables population-scale genotyping of structural variation using pangenome graphs

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Structural variants may be omitted in sequence analysis despite their importance in genome variation and phenotypic impact. Here the authors present GraphTyper2, which uses pangenome graphs to genotype structural variants using short-reads and can be ...

Epigenetic heterogeneity and plasticity in therapy‐induced tumor states through single‐cell multi‐omics

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Single‐cell multi‐omics reveals epigenetic heterogeneity across therapy‐adaptive tumor states, including quiescent/dormant, drug‐tolerant persister, and EMT‐like phenotypes. By linking regulatory features with state‐associated biomarkers, these approaches inform biomarker‐guided therapeutic strategies for evolving tumors.

Admixture in the Hispanics of the San Luis Valley, Colorado, and its implications for complex trait gene mapping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Hispanic populations are a valuable resource that can and should facilitate the identification of complex trait genes by means of admixture mapping (AM).

PAK1 activation drives divergent resistance mechanisms to aromatase inhibition and tamoxifen in a luminal: A breast cancer model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Breast cancer remains a major cause of cancer death in women, frequently developing endocrine therapy resistance. This study demonstrates that upregulated p21‐activated kinase 1 (PAK1) activity drives resistance to tamoxifen and long‐term estrogen deprivation in ER+ breast cancer models.

Whole-genome comparison of two Campylobacter jejuni isolates of the same sequence type reveals multiple loci of different ancestral lineage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Campylobacter jejuni ST-474 is the most important human enteric pathogen in New Zealand, and yet this genotype is rarely found elsewhere in the world. Insight into the evolution of this organism was gained by a whole genome comparison of two ST-474, flaA

GROOLS: reactive graph reasoning for genome annotation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
GROOLS (Genomic Rule Oriented Object Logic System) is an expert system to help biologists in the evaluation of genome functional annotation through biological processes like metabolic pathways. Such reasoning is conducted using a Business Rule Management System (BRMS) working on a generic representation of biological knowledge that captures complex ...
