Liquid Biopsy Test Tracks Treatment-Based ctDNA Changes

Metastatic or unresectable disease is identified in approximately 20% of patients presenting with invasive urothelial cancer. In addition, up to 50% of patients will develop metastases following radical cystectomy for clinically localized disease. More...

Benign Hypertension-Causing Tumors Linked to Somatic Co-Driver Mutations

Most aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) have gain-of-function somatic mutations of ion channels or transporters. However, their frequency in aldosterone-producing cell clusters of normal adrenal gland suggests a requirement for co-driver mutations in APAs. More...

WHO Warning: Rapid Tests Misdiagnose Many Cases of P. falciparum Malaria in Africa

A pair of mutations, which result in deletion of the Plasmodium falciparum histidine-rich protein 2 (HRP2), render the malaria parasite invisible to the most commonly used rapid diagnostic tests. More...
