THE ROLE OF GENETICS IN MODERN MEDICINE
The lecture examines the role of modern genetics and its significance for medicine. The goals of genetics and its structure are determined. It is shown that modern medical genetics is divided into general genetics, clinical genetics and laboratory ...

Schlafen-5 inhibits LINE-1 retrotransposition
Summary: Long interspersed element 1 (LINE-1) is the only currently known active autonomous transposon in humans, and its retrotransposition may cause deleterious effects on the structure and function of host cell genomes and result in sporadic genetic ...

The Hippo pathway uses different machinery to control cell fate and organ size
Summary: The Hippo pathway is a conserved signaling network that regulates organ growth and cell fate. One such cell fate decision is that of R8 photoreceptor cells in the Drosophila eye, where Hippo specifies whether cells sense blue or green light.

Molecular genetics of astrocytomas
Astrocytomas are the most frequent group of intracranial tumors. Among them, glioblastoma is the most aggressive one. In this review we will describe the most common genetic abnormalities found out in astrocytomas. We will refer to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), p53, p16, PTEN and DMBT1 genes.

YAP regulates alveolar epithelial cell differentiation and AGER via NFIB/KLF5/NKX2-1
Summary: Ventilation is dependent upon pulmonary alveoli lined by two major epithelial cell types, alveolar type-1 (AT1) and 2 (AT2) cells. AT1 cells mediate gas exchange while AT2 cells synthesize and secrete pulmonary surfactants and serve as ...

ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Germline polymorphisms and alternative splicing of human immunoglobulin light chain genes
Summary: Inference of germline polymorphisms in immunoglobulin genes from B cell receptor repertoires is complicated by somatic hypermutations, sequencing/PCR errors, and by varying length of reference alleles.

Molecular genetics of AML [PDF]
In the past decade, a series of technological advances have revolutionized our ability to interrogate cancer genomes, culminating in whole-genome sequencing, which provides genome-wide coverage at a single base-pair resolution. To date, the tumor genome has been sequenced in nearly 40 cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
