Molecular testing of soft tissue tumors
Abstract Background The diagnosis of soft tissue tumors is challenging, especially when the evaluable material procured is limited. As a result, diagnostic ancillary testing is frequently needed. Moreover, there is a trend in soft tissue pathology toward increasing use of molecular results for tumor classification and prognostication. Hence, diagnosing

3 '-UTR poly(T/U) repeat of EWSR1 is altered in microsatellite unstable colorectal cancer with nearly perfect sensitivity [PDF]
Approximately 15 % of colorectal cancers exhibit instability of short nucleotide repeat regions, microsatellites. These tumors display a unique clinicopathologic profile and the microsatellite instability status is increasingly used to guide clinical ...

No evidence of EMAST in whole genome sequencing data from 248 colorectal cancers [PDF]
Microsatellite instability (MSI) is caused by defective DNA mismatch repair (MMR), and manifests as accumulation of small insertions and deletions (indels) in short tandem repeats of the genome. Another form of repeat instability, elevated microsatellite

BACKGROUND Cancers with a defective DNA mismatch repair (dMMR) system contain thousands of mutations most frequently located in monomorphic microsatellites and are thereby defined as having microsatellite instability (MSI).

Phase 1b study of anlotinib combined with TQB2450 in pretreated advanced biliary tract cancer and biomarker analysis. Abstract Background and Aims We evaluated the efficacy and safety of the antiangiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitor anlotinib plus TQB2450, a programmed death‐ligand 1 inhibitor in pretreated advanced biliary tract cancers (BTCs ...

Systemic circulating microRNA landscape in Lynch syndrome
What's new? Systemic circulating microRNA expression patterns (c‐miRnomes) are altered during sporadic carcinogenesis and they have predictive potential in early cancer detection. However, their potential in carriers of inherited pathogenic mismatch‐repair gene variants associated with Lynch syndrome remains understudied.

Background As a transmembrane protein, C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2) is mainly expressed on platelets and released into plasma after platelet activation. Activated platelets participate in the regulation of innate immune cells.
