Unexpected perinatal death caused by an occult MTM1 mutation: a case report

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
BackgroundGenetic mutations can lead to miscarriages, perinatal deaths, and abnormalities in fetal development. Sometimes, the regular prenatal test cannot identify some rare diseases, but whole-exome sequencing can be performed.

Cost-effectiveness of massively parallel sequencing for diagnosis of paediatric muscle diseases

open access: yesnpj Genomic Medicine, 2017
Childhood-onset muscle disorders are genetically heterogeneous. Diagnostic workup has traditionally included muscle biopsy, protein-based studies of muscle specimens, and candidate gene sequencing.

Whole-exome sequencing of a pedigree segregating asthma

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2012
Background Despite the success of genome-wide association studies for asthma, few, if any, definitively causal variants have been identified and there is still a substantial portion of the heritability of the disease yet to be discovered.

Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Analysis of Tumor Heterogeneity and the Microenvironment in Pseudomyxoma Peritonei

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a single‐cell atlas of pseudomyxoma peritonei spanning primary and paired metastatic lesions. Distinct epithelial substates, stromal remodeling, immune exclusion, lipid metabolic reprogramming, and a candidate angiogenic network were identified in metastatic lesions.

Gene Analysis for the Sudden Death of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy by Whole Exome Sequencing [PDF]

open access: yesFayixue Zazhi, 2017
Objective To analyze the related pathogenicity gene mutations in a sudden death of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) on whole exome level. Methods Whole exome sequencing (WES) was been performed on a sudden death case sample with pathological features of

Multi‐regional Organoid Biobank Reveals FAK‐ACSL1‐Driven Doxorubicin‐Resistance and Predictive Biomarkers in Breast Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study established a high‐quality organoid biobank derived from 68 tumor sites across 50 Chinese patients, elucidated the drug sensitivity‐based molecular subtyping in breast cancer, and revealed a novel mechanism of drug resistance mediated by the FAK‐ACSL1 pathway.

Whole exome sequencing enhances diagnosis of hereditary bronchiectasis

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Background Hereditary bronchiectasis refers to a subset of bronchiectasis related to genetic mutations, presenting with common clinical features. Historically, diagnosing this condition has been difficult due to the inaccessibility of diagnostic services

Trafficking Deficiency of TMEM175 Variants in Parkinson's Disease Pathogenesis and the Prospects of Precision Medicine

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies that the PD‐associated TMEM175‐L156P variant disrupts lysosomal ion channel trafficking by causing aberrant endoplasmic reticulum retention. A “chaperone–agonist” bifunctional small molecule restores TMEM175‐L156P lysosomal localization and channel function, thereby alleviating PD‐relevant cellular phenotypes and highlighting a ...

Agent‐Based Simulations of Lung Tumor Evolution Suggest That Ongoing Cell Competition Drives Realistic Clonal Expansions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Computational simulations of tumor evolution are increasingly used to infer the rules underlying cancer growth, with the goal of one day recommending tailored treatments. Here we show that the properties of lung cancer sequencing data are best replicated by a model which assumes that cells compete both to proliferate and survive. ABSTRACT Computational

Whole Exome Sequencing of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Patients

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 2016
Background: Previous studies have shown that leukemogenic chromosomal translocations, including fusions between Break point Cluster Region (BCR) and Abelson (ABL) are present in the peripheral blood of healthy individuals.
