Gastric Collision Tumors: An Insight into Their Origin and Clinical Significance
(2015)Collision tumors are rare neoplasms displaying two distinct cell populations developing in juxtaposition to one another without areas of intermingling. They are rare entities with only 63 cases described in English literature. ... -
Gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST): British Sarcoma Group clinical practice guidelines.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2024-06-05)BACKGROUND: British Sarcoma Group guidelines for the management of GIST were initially informed by those published by the European Society of Clinical Oncology. This update was written by a group of experts to includes a ... -
Gastrointestinal tissue-based molecular biomarkers: a practical categorisation based on the 2019 World Health Organization classification of epithelial digestive tumours.
(WILEY, 2020-09-01)Molecular biomarkers have come to constitute one of the cornerstones of oncological pathology. The method of classification not only directly affects the manner in which patients are diagnosed and treated, but also guides ... -
Gastrointestinal Toxicity Prediction Not Influenced by Rectal Contour or Dose-Volume Histogram Definition.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2023-12-01)PURPOSE: Rectal dose delivered during prostate radiation therapy is associated with gastrointestinal toxicity. Treatment plans are commonly optimized using rectal dose-volume constraints, often whole-rectum relative-volumes ... -
Gatekeeper Mutations and Intratumoral Heterogeneity in FGFR2-Translocated Cholangiocarcinoma.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-03-01)<b/>FGFR2 genetic translocations are frequent in cholangiocarcinoma, yet despite initial sensitivity to FGFR inhibitors in clinic, patients quickly become resistant to targeted therapies. The work published by Goyal and ... -
GDNF-RET signaling in ER-positive breast cancers is a key determinant of response and resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2013-06-15)Most breast cancers at diagnosis are estrogen receptor-positive (ER(+)) and depend on estrogen for growth and survival. Blocking estrogen biosynthesis by aromatase inhibitors has therefore become a first-line endocrine ... -
Gefitinib and EGFR Gene Copy Number Aberrations in Esophageal Cancer.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2017-07-10)Purpose The Cancer Esophagus Gefitinib trial demonstrated improved progression-free survival with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor gefitinib relative to placebo in patients with advanced ... -
GENCODE 2021.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2021-01-08)The GENCODE project annotates human and mouse genes and transcripts supported by experimental data with high accuracy, providing a foundational resource that supports genome biology and clinical genomics. GENCODE annotation ... -
GENCODE reference annotation for the human and mouse genomes.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2019-01-08)The accurate identification and description of the genes in the human and mouse genomes is a fundamental requirement for high quality analysis of data informing both genome biology and clinical genomics. Over the last 15 ... -
Gene and pathway level analyses of germline DNA-repair gene variants and prostate cancer susceptibility using the iCOGS-genotyping array.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2016-04-12)BACKGROUND: Germline mutations within DNA-repair genes are implicated in susceptibility to multiple forms of cancer. For prostate cancer (PrCa), rare mutations in BRCA2 and BRCA1 give rise to moderately elevated risk, ... -
Gene Copy Number Estimation from Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing of Prostate Cancer Biopsies: Analytic Validation and Clinical Qualification.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-10-15)Purpose: Precise detection of copy number aberrations (CNA) from tumor biopsies is critically important to the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer. The use of targeted panel next-generation sequencing (NGS) is inexpensive, ... -
Gene expression modules in primary breast cancers as risk factors for organotropic patterns of first metastatic spread: a case control study.
(BMC, 2017-10-13)BACKGROUND: Metastases from primary breast cancers can involve single or multiple organs at metastatic disease diagnosis. Molecular risk factors for particular patterns of metastastic spread in a clinical population are ... -
Gene expression profiling identifies distinct molecular subgroups of leiomyosarcoma with clinical relevance.
(2016-10)Background Soft tissue sarcomas are heterogeneous and a major complication in their management is that the existing classification scheme is not definitive and is still evolving. Leiomyosarcomas, a major histologic category ... -
Gene expression profiling in bladder cancer identifies potential therapeutic targets.
(SPANDIDOS PUBL LTD, 2017-04-01)Despite advances in management, bladder cancer remains a major cause of cancer related complications. Characterisation of gene expression patterns in bladder cancer allows the identification of pathways involved in its ... -
Gene Regulatory Networks and Transcriptional Mechanisms that Control Myogenesis
(CELL PRESS, 2014-02-10)We discuss the upstream regulators of myogenesis that lead to the activation of myogenic determination genes and subsequent differentiation, focusing on the mouse model. Key upstream genes, such as Pax3 and Pax7, Six1 and ... -
Gene-environment dependence creates spurious gene-environment interaction.
(CELL PRESS, 2014-09-04)Gene-environment interactions have the potential to shed light on biological processes leading to disease and to improve the accuracy of epidemiological risk models. However, relatively few such interactions have yet been ... -
Gene-environment interactions involving functional variants: Results from the Breast Cancer Association Consortium.
(WILEY, 2017-11-01)Investigating the most likely causal variants identified by fine-mapping analyses may improve the power to detect gene-environment interactions. We assessed the interplay between 70 single nucleotide polymorphisms identified ... -
Gene-Environment Interactions Relevant to Estrogen and Risk of Breast Cancer: Can Gene-Environment Interactions Be Detected Only among Candidate SNPs from Genome-Wide Association Studies?
(MDPI, 2021-05-14)In this study we aim to examine gene-environment interactions (GxEs) between genes involved with estrogen metabolism and environmental factors related to estrogen exposure. GxE analyses were conducted with 1970 Korean ... -
General anaesthetic and airway management practice for obstetric surgery in England: a prospective, multicentre observational study.
(WILEY, 2020-09-21)There are no current descriptions of general anaesthesia characteristics for obstetric surgery, despite recent changes to patient baseline characteristics and airway management guidelines. This analysis of data from the ...
