Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) and advanced differentiated cancers (DTCs) show fatal outcomes, unlike DTCs. Here, we demonstrate mutational landscape of 27 ATCs 86 DTCs by massively-parallel DNA sequencing, transcriptome 13 12 were profiled RNA sequencing. TERT, AKT1, PIK3CA, EIF1AX frequently co-mutated with driver genes (BRAFV600E RAS) in as well ATC, but tumor suppressors (e.g., TP53 CDKN2A) predominantly altered ATC. CDKN2A loss was significantly associated poor disease-specific...

Intestinal-type gastric carcinoma exhibits a multistep carcinogenic sequence from adenoma to with gradual increase in genomic alterations. But the roles of microRNAs (miRNA) this multistage cascade are not fully explored. To identify differentially expressed miRNA (DEM) during early carcinogenesis, we performed microarray profiling 24 cancers and precursor lesions (7 cancer [EGC], 3 adenomas high-grade dysplasia, 4 low-grade 10 adjacent normal tissues). Alterations expression 132 were...

Several recurrent mutations and epigenetic changes have been identified in advanced gastric cancer, but the genetic alterations associated with early carcinogenesis malignant transformation remain unclear. We investigated genomic transcriptomic landscape of adenomas low-grade dysplasia (LGD) high-grade (HGD), intestinal-type cancer (EGC). The results were validated an independent cohort that included EGCs directly adjacent to adenoma (EGC-adenomas) process transformation, de novo do not seem...

Relatively few recurrent gene fusion events have been associated with breast cancer to date. In an effort uncover novel transcripts, we performed whole‐transcriptome sequencing of 120 fresh‐frozen primary samples and five adjacent normal tissues using the Illumina HiSeq2000 platform. Three different fusion‐detecting tools (deFuse, Chimerascan, TopHatFusion) were used, results compared. These detected 3,831, 6,630 516 transcripts (FTs) overall. We primarily focused on obtained deFuse...

Background/Objectives: Mutations in RAS/RAF are common colorectal cancer (CRC) and play a pivotal role guiding treatment selection. With the recent advent of immunotherapy, microsatellite (MSI) status, tumor mutation burden (TMB), POLE mutations, particularly those leading to high TMB, have gained importance CRC. This study aimed examine clinicopathological characteristics patients with CRC mutations. Methods: We identified mutations who had available next-generation sequencing (NGS) results...

Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) is a rare type metastatic cancer in which the origin tumor unknown. Since treatment strategy for patients with tumors depends on knowing site, accurate identification site important. Here, we developed an image-based deep-learning model that utilizes vision transformer algorithm predicting CUP. Using DNA methylation dataset 8,233 from The Genome Atlas (TCGA), categorized 29 types into 18 organ classes and extracted 2,312 differentially methylated CpG sites...

Genome-wide association studies have been used extensively to identify genetic variants linked metabolic syndrome (MetS), but most of them conducted in non-Asian populations. This study aimed evaluate the between MetS and previously studied single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), their interaction with health-related behavior Korean men. Seventeen SNPs were genotyped its components was tested 1193 men who enrolled at Seoul National University Hospital. We found that rs662799 near APOA5...

Invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma (IMA) of the lung frequently presents with diffuse pneumonic-type features or multifocal lesions, which are regarded as a pattern intrapulmonary metastases. However, genomics IMAs have not been well studied. We performed whole exome sequencing on samples taken from 2 to 5 regions in seven patients synchronous (24 total). Early initiating driver events, such KRAS, NKX2-1, TP53, ARID1A mutations, clonal mutations and were present all each patient. The tumor...

Abstract Keratinocyte-derived cytokines and chemokines amplify psoriatic inflammation by recruiting IL-17-producing CCR6 + γδT-cells neutrophils. The expression of these mainly depends on NF-κB activity; however, the pathway that activates in response to triggering factors is poorly defined. Here, we show transglutaminase 2 (TG2), previously reported elicit a T H 17 increasing IL-6 mouse model lung fibrosis, mediates upregulation activating imiquimod (IMQ)-treated keratinocytes....

Heparin and low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) have been the drug of choice for treatment or prevention thromboembolic disease. Different methods are employed to prepare LMWHs that clinically approved market currently. In particular, enoxaparin, which has a reducing sugar moiety at end-site polysaccharide, is prepared by alkaline depolymerization. Focusing on this end-site-specific activity LMWHs, we conjugated tetraoligomer deoxycholic acid (TetraDOCA; TD) enoxaparin via nonenzymatic...
