Precise Measurement of DNA Length Polymorphisms Used to Diagnose Acute Myeloid Leukemia
By combining two powerful analytical tools, researchers have demonstrated the ability to diagnose diseases such as leukemia by quantifying both the size and proportion of DNA length polymorphisms. More...08 Feb 2021

Liquid Biopsy Predicts Colon Cancer Relapse Months Earlier
Colorectal cancer (CRC), also known as bowel cancer, colon cancer, or rectal cancer, is the development of cancer from the colon or rectum (parts of the large intestine). Signs and symptoms may include blood in the stool, a change in bowel movements, weight loss, and fatigue. More...03 Feb 2021



ABO Histo-Blood Groups Influence Makeup of Gut Microbiome
Recent genome-wide association studies yielded inconsistent, underpowered and rarely replicated results such that the role of human host genetics as a contributing factor to microbiome assembly and structure remains uncertain. More...01 Feb 2021

Specific RUNX1 Mutations Cause Different Disease Types
Mutations of the hematopoietic master regulator RUNX1 are associated with acute myeloid leukemia, familial platelet disorder and other hematological malignancies whose phenotypes and prognoses depend upon the class of the RUNX1 mutation. More...28 Jan 2021
