Anaplastic thyroid cancer: genome-based search for new targeted therapy options
Objective: Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is one of the most lethal human cancers with meager treatment options. We aimed to identify the targeted drugs already approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for solid cancer in general, which could ...

Targeted Therapy of Papillary Thyroid Cancer: A Comprehensive Genomic Analysis
BackgroundA limited number of targeted therapy options exist for papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) to date. Based on genetic alterations reported by the “The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)”, we explored whether PTC shows alterations that may be targetable by ...

Bacteria-human somatic cell lateral gene transfer is enriched in cancer samples. [PDF]
There are 10× more bacterial cells in our bodies from the microbiome than human cells. Viral DNA is known to integrate in the human genome, but the integration of bacterial DNA has not been described. Using publicly available sequence data from the human

Unraveling Mycobacterium tuberculosis acid resistance and pH homeostasis mechanisms
Mycobacterium tuberculosis exhibits a remarkable resilience to acid stress. In this Review, we discuss some of the molecular mechanisms and metabolic pathways used by the tubercle bacilli to adapt and resist host‐mediated acid stress. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a successful pathogen that has developed a variety of strategies to survive and ...
