Simple Urine Test Detects Urothelial Cancers in Lynch Syndrome Patients
Lynch Syndrome (LS) is an inherited genetic disorder that carries a high risk of cancer. LS is caused by mutations affecting MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 or PMS2 genes. More than one in 300 people have LS but most do not know it and that is equivalent to more than 2,300 new cases every year in the UK. More...24 Nov 2021

Men with Certain Pathogenic Variants Had a Higher Incidence of Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in men worldwide. The importance of germline genetic variation for identifying men at increased risk of prostate cancer to enable targeted screening and early detection has become increasingly recognized. More...17 Nov 2021
Endotoxemia Genetic Profile Reveals an Association with Thromboembolism and Stroke
Microorganisms are part of the human body, and bacteria or their components often end up in the circulation. One such bacterial component is lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which is a toxin. High concentrations of LPS in the blood cause sepsis. Low LPS levels, known as endotoxemia, cause low-grade inflammation. More...09 Nov 2021
Novel Serum Biomarker Investigated for Early Gastric Cancer Diagnosis
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common causes of cancer-related death worldwide. More importantly, most reported GC cases are in developing countries. The high mortality of GC is often due to its nonspecific symptoms and delayed diagnosis. More...03 Nov 2021
Gene Expression Test Improves Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Diagnosis
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a serious chronic disease that affects the tissue surrounding the air sacs, or alveoli, in the lungs. This condition occurs when that lung tissue becomes thick and stiff for undetermined reasons. More...01 Nov 2021
