Development and validation of an expanded targeted sequencing panel for non-invasive prenatal diagnosis of sporadic skeletal dysplasiaBMC Medical Genomics - Tập 14 - Trang 1-13 - 2021
Ching-Yuan Wang, Yen-An Tang, I-Wen Lee, Fong-Ming Chang, Chun-Wei Chien, Hsien-An Pan, H. Sunny Sun
Skeletal dysplasia (SD) is one of the most common inherited neonatal disorders worldwide, where the recurrent pathogenic mutations in the FGFR2, FGFR3, COL1A1, COL1A2 and COL2A1 genes are frequently reported in both non-lethal and lethal SD. The traditional prenatal diagnosis of SD using ultrasonography suffers from lower accuracy and performed at latter gestational stage. Therefore, it remains in...... hiện toàn bộ
Clinicopathological investigation of secretory carcinoma cases including a successful treatment outcome using entrectinib for high-grade transformation: a case reportBMC Medical Genomics - Tập 15 - Trang 1-13 - 2022

Secretory carcinoma (SC) of the salivary gland is a recently described malignant tumor harboring characteristic ETV6-NTRK3 gene fusion. SC generally has a favorable clinical course, and is currently regarded as a low-grade carcinoma. However, a small subset of SCs demonstrates aggressive clinical features with histologically high-grade transformed morphology, the molecular pathogenesis of which ha...... hiện toàn bộ
Identification of genetic risk variants for deep vein thrombosis by multiplexed next-generation sequencing of 186 hemostatic/pro-inflammatory genesBMC Medical Genomics - Tập 5 - Trang 1-12 - 2012

Next-generation DNA sequencing is opening new avenues for genetic association studies in common diseases that, like deep vein thrombosis (DVT), have a strong genetic predisposition still largely unexplained by currently identified risk variants. In order to develop sequencing and analytical pipelines for the application of next-generation sequencing to complex diseases, we conducted a pilot study ...... hiện toàn bộ
Transforming growth factor β receptor 1 is a new candidate prognostic biomarker after acute myocardial infarctionBMC Medical Genomics - Tập 4 - Trang 1-13 - 2011

Prediction of left ventricular (LV) remodeling after acute myocardial infarction (MI) is clinically important and would benefit from the discovery of new biomarkers. Blood samples were obtained upon admission in patients with acute ST-elevation MI who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Messenger RNA was extracted from whole blood cells. LV function was evaluated by echocardiogra...... hiện toàn bộ
Transcriptomic epidemiology of smoking: the effect of smoking on gene expression in lymphocytesBMC Medical Genomics - Tập 3 - Trang 1-11 - 2010

This investigation offers insights into system-wide pathological processes induced in response to cigarette smoke exposure by determining its influences at the gene expression level. We obtained genome-wide quantitative transcriptional profiles from 1,240 individuals from the San Antonio Family Heart Study, including 297 current smokers. Using lymphocyte samples, we identified 20,413 transcripts w...... hiện toàn bộ
Fast comparison of genomic and meta-genomic reads with alignment-free measures based on quality valuesBMC Medical Genomics - Tập 9 - Trang 41-50 - 2016
Matteo Comin, Michele Schimd
Sequencing technologies are generating enormous amounts of read data, however assembly of genomes and metagenomes remain among the most challenging tasks. In this paper we study the comparison of genomes and metagenomes only based on read data, using word counts statistics called alignment-free thus not requiring reference genomes or assemblies. Quality scores produced by sequencing platforms are ...... hiện toàn bộ
