The role of RAS mutations in MLL-rearranged leukaemia: A path to intervention?
(ELSEVIER, 2017-12-01)
Childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) with MLL rearrangement (MLL-r) is an aggressive disease still associated with a high mortality rate. Recent investigations have identified co-operating mutations in the RAS ...
Immuno-PET in Pontine Glioma: More Than Meets the Eye?

Targeting the Vulnerability of RB Tumor Suppressor Loss in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.
(CELL PRESS, 2018-01-30)
Approximately 30% of triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs) exhibit functional loss of the RB tumor suppressor, suggesting a target for precision intervention. Here, we use drug screens to identify agents specifically ...
Glycogen synthase kinase 3 controls migration of the neural crest lineage in mouse and Xenopus.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-03-19)
Neural crest migration is critical to its physiological function. Mechanisms controlling mammalian neural crest migration are comparatively unknown, due to difficulties accessing this cell population in vivo. Here we report ...
Three-dimensional cardiovascular imaging-genetics: a mass univariate framework.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-01-01)
MOTIVATION: Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy is a strong predictor of cardiovascular outcomes, but its genetic regulation remains largely unexplained. Conventional phenotyping relies on manual calculation of LV mass and ...
Adaptation and validation of the ACMG/AMP variant classification framework for MYH7-associated inherited cardiomyopathies: recommendations by ClinGen's Inherited Cardiomyopathy Expert Panel.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-03-01)
PurposeIntegrating genomic sequencing in clinical care requires standardization of variant interpretation practices. The Clinical Genome Resource has established expert panels to adapt the American College of Medical ...
CardioClassifier: disease- and gene-specific computational decision support for clinical genome interpretation.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-10-01)
PURPOSE: Internationally adopted variant interpretation guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) are generic and require disease-specific refinement. Here we developed CardioClassifier ...
Long-term outcomes for neoadjuvant versus adjuvant chemotherapy in early breast cancer: meta-analysis of individual patient data from ten randomised trials.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-01-01)
BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) for early breast cancer can make breast-conserving surgery more feasible and might be more likely to eradicate micrometastatic disease than might the same chemotherapy given after ...
Olaratumab in soft tissue sarcoma - Current status and future perspectives.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018-03-01)
Recent randomised phase II trial data have indicated that the addition of olaratumab, a novel monoclonal antibody against platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRα), to doxorubicin confers an unprecedented ...
Clinical and Molecular Spectrum of Liposarcoma.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2018-01-10)
Liposarcomas are rare malignant tumors of adipocytic differentiation. The classification of liposarcomas into four principal subtypes reflects the distinct clinical behavior, treatment sensitivity, and underlying biology ...
