The illustration of protein structure (domains) on the left side, and corresponding exons in the FLT3 gene are displayed on the right side. FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) mutations represent some ...
After an allogeneic stem cell transplant, a recipient’s body faces a daunting task: rebuilding the person’s blood-forming and immune systems from the ground up from a relatively small number of “seed” ...
Today, doctors are increasingly looking at the genetic makeup of each patient’s tumor to guide treatment decisions.
While men may be able to have children much later than women, doing so could come with an increased risk of inherited disease for their children. Researchers from the Wellcome Sanger Institute have ...
Autologous T-Cell Therapies in Solid Tumor Malignancies: Current Landscape and Future Opportunities Histology-agnostic therapies: by focusing on common mutations across various cancers, this approach ...
In humans, hundreds of proteins interact in a complex network dubbed the interactome. Those interactions are further complicated when disease-causing mutations are introduced into genes that code for ...
In mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), an aggressive form of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, TP53 mutations are known to affect patients’ prognosis—but questions remain. What does the heterogeneity of TP53 ...
A reanalysis of whole-genome data from 130 children conceived after the Chernobyl disaster has identified a statistically significant increase in a specific type of DNA mutation in the offspring of ...
Human semen not only accumulates genetic mutations with age; as the percentage of sperm carrying potentially serious mutations increases, so does the risk of developing diseases in offspring. This is ...
