Genomic Analysis Used to Diagnose Neurodevelopmental and Congenital Anomalies

A recent paper described the use of genomic DNA methylation analysis to facilitate the molecular diagnosis of unresolved clinical cases of neurodevelopmental and congenital anomalies (ND/CAs) and highlighted the potential value of epigenomic testing in the routine clinical assessment of these disorders.

Digital PCR Assay Diagnoses Paucibacillary Leprosy

Leprosy, or Hansen’s disease, is a chronic bacterial disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae. Although it is curable and early treatment averts most disabilities, it remains an important global health concern. More...

Immune Relationship to Lung Tumor Evolution Characterized

Non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is any type of epithelial lung cancer other than small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC). NSCLC accounts for about 85% of all lung cancers. As a class, NSCLCs are relatively insensitive to chemotherapy, compared to small cell carcinoma. More...

Glioblastoma Driver Mutations Appear Long Before Diagnosis

Glioblastomas are the most common high-grade (cancerous) primary brain tumor in adults. They can also occur, rarely, in children. Glioblastomas belong to a group of brain tumors known as gliomas, as they grow from a type of brain cell called a glial cell. More...

Preterm Birth Clues Identified in Cervicovaginal Microbiome

Failure to predict and understand the causes of preterm birth, the leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality, have limited effective interventions and therapeutics. Preterm birth (PTB) is defined as birth before 37 completed weeks of gestation and is the leading cause of death in neonates and children under the age of 5. More...
