Molecular Prognostic Biomarker Found for CNS Lymphoma
Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), a rare subgroup of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) arising in the central nervous system (CNS), is an aggressive malignant variant of nodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). PCNSLs account for 3% of all primary CNS tumors and 1% of NHLs in adults. More...24 Jan 2019
Gene-Based Risk Scores Predicts Alcoholic Cirrhosis
Alcoholic chronic liver disease, with a prevalence of around 12% in the European and North-American populations, is characterized by a broad spectrum of conditions ranging from simple steatosis to alcoholic steatohepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. More...23 Jan 2019
Prognostic Signature Described in HPV-Positive Cell Carcinomas
Human papilloma virus (HPV) is an etiological agent of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). Patients with HPV+ OPSCC have high long-term survival rates: however, current radiation protocols are aggressive and can result in life-long morbidities, including difficulty swallowing, chronic dry-mouth, and altered speech.

Genetic Methods Rapidly Diagnoses Huntington's Disease
People with Huntington's disease suffer from jerky body movements and decreasing mental abilities. The condition usually leads to death 15 to 20 years after diagnosis. The cause of the disease is a region in the Huntingtin gene (HTT) that is absent in healthy people. More...23 Jan 2019
Urinary Detection Method Developed for Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common types of malignancy worldwide and is the second leading cause of cancer death among men. This cancer tends to be asymptomatic and slow growing, often with onset in young men, but usually not detected until the age of 40 to 50 years. More...22 Jan 2019
Latinos and Hispanics Prone to Kidney Disease Gene Variant
Risk variants in the apolipoprotein A-I (APOL1) gene on chromosome 22, which were first discovered in African Americans, confer a substantially increased risk of kidney disease, early-onset hypertension, and cardiovascular disease, although disease risk is modified by other genetic factors and by environmental factors.
