Somatic genetic alterations predict hematological progression in GATA2 deficiency

open access: yesHaematologica, 2023
Germline GATA2 mutations predispose to myeloid malignancies resulting from the progressive acquisition of additional somatic mutations. Here we describe clinical and biological features of 78 GATA2-deficient patients.

A critical reassessment of the role of mitochondria in tumorigenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
<p><b>Background:</b> Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is being analyzed by an increasing number of laboratories in order to investigate its potential role as an active marker of tumorigenesis in various types of cancer.

A pathway-centric survey of somatic mutations in Chinese patients with colorectal carcinomas.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Previous genetic studies on colorectal carcinomas (CRC) have identified multiple somatic mutations in four candidate pathways (TGF-β, Wnt, P53 and RTK-RAS pathways) on populations of European ancestry.

Analysis of somatic mutations in 131 human brains reveals aging-associated hypermutability

open access: yes, 2022
We analyzed 131 human brains (44 neurotypical, 19 with Tourette syndrome, 9 with schizophrenia, and 59 with autism) for somatic mutations after whole genome sequencing to a depth of more than 200x.

Uncovering the profile of somatic mtDNA mutations in Chinese colorectal cancer patients. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
In the past decade, a high incidence of somatic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations has been observed, mostly based on a fraction of the molecule, in various cancerous tissues; nevertheless, some of them were queried due to problems in data quality ...

Mutations in the DNA methyltransferase gene DNMT3A cause an overgrowth syndrome with intellectual disability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Overgrowth disorders are a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by increased growth parameters and other variable clinical features such as intellectual disability and facial dysmorphism1.

The landscape of somatic mutation in cerebral cortex of autistic and neurotypical individuals revealed by ultra-deep whole-genome sequencing

open access: yes, 2021
We characterize the landscape of somatic mutations-mutations occurring after fertilization-in the human brain using ultra-deep (~250×) whole-genome sequencing of prefrontal cortex from 59 donors with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and 15 control donors ...

Inheritance of somatic mutations by animal offspring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Since 1892, it has been widely assumed that somatic mutations are evolutionarily irrelevant in animals because they cannot be inherited by offspring. However, some nonbilaterians segregate the soma and germline late in development or never, leaving the ...

Whole Exome Sequencing of Growing and Non-Growing Cutaneous Neurofibromas from a Single Patient with Neurofibromatosis Type 1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The growth behaviors of cutaneous neurofibromas in patients with Neurofibromatosis type 1 are highly variable. The role of the germline NF1 mutation, somatic NF1 mutation and mutations at modifying loci, are poorly understood.
