The sequencing of two members of the Royal Kelantan Malay family genomes will provide insights on the Kelantan Malay whole genome sequences. The two Kelantan Malay genomes were analyzed for the SNP markers associated with thalassemia and Helicobacter pylori infection. Helicobacter pylori infection was reported to be low prevalence in the north-east as compared to the west coast of the Peninsular M...... hiện toàn bộ
An economic perspective on personalized medicine Tập 7 - Trang 1-6 - 2013
Sairamesh Jakka, Michael Rossbach
The concept of personalized medicine not only promises to enhance the life of patients and increase the quality of clinical practice and targeted care pathways, but also to lower overall healthcare costs through early-detection, prevention, accurate risk assessments and efficiencies in care delivery. Current inefficiencies are widely regarded as substantial enough to have a significant impact on t...... hiện toàn bộ
Mutation screening in 86 known X-linked mental retardation genes by droplet-based multiplex PCR and massive parallel sequencing - 2010
Hao Hu, Klaus Wrogemann, Vera Kalscheuer, Andreas Tzschach, Hugues Richard, Stefan A. Haas, Corinna Menzel, Melanie Bienek, Guy Froyen, Martine Raynaud, Hans Van Bokhoven, Jamel Chelly, Hilger Ropers, Wei Chen
Massive parallel sequencing has revolutionized the search for pathogenic variants in the human genome, but for routine diagnosis, re-sequencing of the complete human genome in a large cohort of patients is still far too expensive. Recently, novel genome partitioning methods have been developed that allow to target re-sequencing to specific genomic compartments, but practical experience with these ...... hiện toàn bộ
Current status and future potential of somatic mutation testing from circulating free DNA in patients with solid tumours Tập 4 - Trang 11-21 - 2011
K. L. Aung, R. E. Board, G. Ellison, E. Donald, T. Ward, G. Clack, M. Ranson, A. Hughes, W. Newman, C. Dive
Genetic alterations can determine the natural history of cancer and its treatment response. With further advances in DNA sequencing technology, multiple novel genetic alterations will be discovered which could be exploited as prognostic, predictive and pharmacodynamic biomarkers in the development and use of cancer therapeutics. As such, the importance in clinical practice of efficient and robust ...... hiện toàn bộ
The extent of functionality in the human genome Tập 7 - Trang 1-4 - 2013
John S Mattick, Marcel E Dinger
Recently articles have been published disputing the main finding of the ENCODE project that the majority of the human genome exhibits biochemical indices of function, based primarily on low sequence conservation and the existence of larger genomes in some ostensibly simpler organisms (the C-value enigma), indicating the likely presence of significant amounts of junk. Here we challenge these argume...... hiện toàn bộ
Germ-line variation at a functional p53 binding site increases susceptibility to breast cancer development Tập 3 - Trang 31-40 - 2010

Multiple lines of evidence suggest regulatory variation to play an important role in phenotypic evolution and disease development, but few regulatory polymorphisms have been characterized genetically and molecularly. Recent technological advances have made it possible to identify bona fide regulatory sequences experimentally on a genome-wide scale and opened the window for the biological interroga...... hiện toàn bộ
Current and emerging therapeutic strategies for Fanconi anemia Tập 6 - Trang 1-8 - 2012
Pallavi Shukla, Kanjaksha Ghosh, Babu R Vundinti
Fanconi Anemia (FA) is a rare disorder with incidence of 1in 350,000 births. It is characterized by progressive bone marrow failure leading to death of many patients in their childhood while development of cancer at later stages of life in some. The treatment of FA is still a medical challenge. Current treatments of FA include androgen administration, hematopoietic growth factors administration an...... hiện toàn bộ
