Diagnostic value of partial exome sequencing in developmental disorders. [PDF]
Although intellectual disability is one of the major indications for genetic counselling, there are no homogenous diagnostic algorithms for molecular testing. While whole exome sequencing is increasingly applied, we questioned whether analyzing a partial

Immune DNA signature of T-cell infiltration in breast tumor exomes. [PDF]
Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) have been associated with favorable prognosis in multiple tumor types. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) represents the largest collection of cancer molecular data, but lacks detailed information about the immune ...

Whole-exome sequencing of rectal neuroendocrine tumors
The genetic characteristics of rectal neuroendocrine tumors (R-NETs) were poorly understood. Depicting the genetic characteristics may provide a biological basis for prognosis prediction and novel treatment development. Tissues of 18 R-NET patients were analyzed using whole-exome sequencing.

Circulating tumor cells: advancing personalized therapy in small cell lung cancer patients
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive form of lung cancer that spreads rapidly to secondary sites such as the brain and liver. Cancer cells circulating in the blood, “circulating tumor cells” (CTCs), have demonstrated prognostic value in SCLC, and evaluating biomarkers on CTCs could guide treatment decisions such as for PARP inhibitors ...

Whole exome sequencing for diagnosis of hereditary thrombocytopenia
Abstract Hereditary thrombocytopenia comprises extremely diverse diseases that are difficult to diagnose by phenotypes alone. Definite diagnoses are helpful for patient (Pt) management. To evaluate the role of whole exome sequencing (WES) in these Pts.

Molecular and functional profiling unravels targetable vulnerabilities in colorectal cancer
We used whole exome and RNA‐sequencing to profile divergent genomic and transcriptomic landscapes of microsatellite stable (MSS) and microsatellite instable (MSI) colorectal cancer. Alterations were classified using a computational score for integrative cancer variant annotation and prioritization.

Whole Exome Sequencing Identifies Genes Associated With Non-Obstructive Azoospermia
Background: Non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) affects nearly 1% of men; however, the landscape of the causative genes is largely unknown.Objective: To explore the genetic etiology which is the fundamental cause of NOA, a prospective case-control study ...
