Intrapatient tumour heterogeneity and clonal evolution in an autopsy study of metastatic salivary gland cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumour heterogeneity and clonal evolution of metastatic salivary gland cancer were evaluated in two patients with adenoid carcinoma and one patient with myoepithelial carcinoma. Radiology‐guided autopsy enabled multi‐region sampling (total samples n = 149), followed by whole‐genome sequencing and phylogenetic reconstruction (17 tumour samples, 4–7 per ...

A Novel Homozygous Variant in the Aspartoacylase Gene Causes Canavan Disease-Case Report [PDF]

open access: yes
Glu178 is the active site residue essential for substrate affinity and catalytic activity of the aspartoacylase enzyme. Sanger sequencing in an infant with Canavan disease revealed a homozygous ASPA: c.532G>A: p. (Glu178Lys) variant.

Bridging the gap: a genetically validated avian chorioallantoic membrane platform for investigation of spontaneous circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...

Multiplicity of hereditary thrombophilic factors inherited from both parents results in child catastrophe

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2019
Here we present a rare case of hereditary thrombophilia due to transfer of multiple hereditary thrombophilic factors from father and mother with lethal outcome.

A Novel Homozygous CYP19A1 Gene Mutation: Aromatase Deficiency Mimicking Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia in an Infant without Obvious Maternal Virilisation

open access: yes, 2019
Aromatase deficiency is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder in which affected patients fail to synthesize normal estrogen. Herein, we report a 46, XX patient born with virilised external genitalia.

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

IGF2 knockout reduces but does not abolish osteosarcoma growth in vitro and in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
To test whether endogenous IGF2 promotes osteosarcoma growth, IGF2 was knocked out in Saos2 cells via CRISPR‐Cas9. KO cells showed reduced proliferation in vitro, and knockout xenografts in mice reached only ~25% of wild‐type tumor volume. Insulin‐like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is implicated in osteosarcoma, but direct functional evidence of its role is ...

The Clinical Manifestation of Homozygous Huntington's Disease

open access: yesClinical Case Reports
Huntington's disease is an incurable neurodegenerative disease with deficits in many areas including cognitive, psychiatric, and most notably, motor. It is autosomal dominant, meaning one affected allele is enough to express the condition.
