Genetic Risk Score Predicts Prostate Cancer Drug Response
Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer is when the cancer has spread to parts of the body other than the prostate, and it is able to grow and spread even though drugs or other treatments to lower the amount of male sex hormones are being used to manage the cancer. More...20 Apr 2020
Novel Inherited Mutation Predisposes Children to Medulloblastoma
Cancer genomics has revealed many genes and core molecular processes that contribute to human malignancies, but the genetic and molecular bases of many rare cancers remains unclear. Genetic predisposition accounts for 5% to 10% of cancer diagnoses in children. More...16 Apr 2020
Reactive Pneumocytes Identified by Distinctive Cytology
One of the most challenging and exceedingly common diagnostic dilemmas in pulmonary pathology is the distinction between reactive and neoplastic epithelial atypia. In particular, reactive pneumocytes in various infectious or inflammatory lung diseases can exhibit marked cytological atypia, which can closely resemble malignancy. More...15 Apr 2020
Susceptibility Gene Identified for Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) is a lung disorder characterized by high blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries. In this instance, “idiopathic” means that the cause of the pulmonary artery hypertension is unknown. More...14 Apr 2020
Liquid Biopsy Lung Cancer Screening Method Developed
Genomic blood tests for cancer screening and early detection have become the focus of attention in the molecular diagnostic space, though most activity so far has been either toward pan-cancer screening tools, or in a few other specific tumor types like colorectal cancer, where tests hope to vie against colonoscopy and existing stool-based methods. More...09 Apr 2020
Potential Microbial Markers Identified for Cervical Pre-Cancer Progression
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections. However, only a small percentage of high-risk (HR) HPV infections progress to cervical pre-cancer and cancer. The role of the cervicovaginal microbiome (CVM) in the natural history of HR-HPV has been investigated. More...08 Apr 2020
Early Prediction of Resistance to Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Reported
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutations that confer sensitivity to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in non-small cell lung carcinomas paved the way for a precision medicine approach in this neoplastic form. More...31 Mar 2020
