Pancancer analysis of DNA methylation-driven genes using MethylMix. [PDF]

, 2015
Aberrant DNA methylation is an important mechanism that contributes to oncogenesis. Yet, few algorithms exist that exploit this vast dataset to identify hypo- and hypermethylated genes in cancer.

Improving genetic diagnosis of hereditary tumor syndromes: From expanded gene panels to functional genomics

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic tumor risk syndromes (genturis) contribute substantially to the overall cancer burden and provide opportunities for early detection, prevention, and individualized treatment. Yet, many affected individuals remain undiagnosed due to restrictive testing criteria and challenges in variant interpretation.

Multiple origins and regional dispersal of resistant dhps in African Plasmodium falciparum malaria. [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: Although the molecular basis of resistance to a number of common antimalarial drugs is well known, a geographic description of the emergence and dispersal of resistance mutations across Africa has not been attempted.

Living at genetic risk: The patient experience of Lynch syndrome

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Lynch syndrome is a germline cancer predisposition syndrome caused by a variant in one of four genes. Lynch syndrome places individuals at significantly higher risk for a range of cancers, especially colorectal and endometrial. Depending on which gene is affected, the risk of ovarian, gastric, small bowel, pancreatic, biliary urothelial, brain,

Colorectal cancer carcinogenesis: a review of mechanisms

Cancer Biology & Medicine, 2016
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cancer in women and the third most common in men globally. CRC arises from one or a combination of chromosomal instability, CpG island methylator phenotype, and microsatellite instability.

A multilevel perspective on MSH6‐associated Lynch syndrome: Integrating molecular, biological, and clinical insights

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome, caused by a germline pathogenic variant in one of the mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Among these, MSH6‐associated LS represents a distinct subtype with unique molecular and clinical characteristics.
