Abstract PIK3CA, which codes for the p110α catalytic subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, is one most frequently mutated genes in human breast cancer. Here, we describe a mouse model PIK3CA-induced cancer by using ROSA26 (R26) knock-in system, targeted Pik3ca alleles can be activated through transgenic expression Cre recombinase. We mated Pik3caH1047R and Pik3cawt lines with MMTV-Cre transgenics, express mammary epithelium. Starting at approximately 5 months age, female...

The UniFrac distance metric is often used to separate groups in microbiome analysis, but requires a constant sequencing depth work properly. Here we demonstrate that unweighted highly sensitive rarefaction instance and uniform data sets with no clear structure or separation between groups. We show this arises because of subcompositional effects. introduce information ratio UniFrac, two new weightings are not as allow greater outliers than classic weighted UniFrac. With expansion the toolbox,...

Abstract Breast cancer is associated with alterations in a number of growth factor and hormone-regulated signaling pathways. Mouse models metastatic breast typically feature mutated oncoproteins that activate PI3K, Stat3, Ras signaling, but the individual combined roles these pathways progression are poorly understood. In this study, we examined relationship between oncogenic pathway activation subtype by analyzing mouse mammary tumor formation which each was activated singly or pairwise....

This work was conducted to characterize the 16S rRNA gene profile of a cohort patients with traditional risk factors for developing atherosclerosis. The in were divided into two extremes; those predicted develop extreme atherosclerosis who did not (Protected), and (Unexplained). Bacterial DNA isolated from stool saliva this used determine V4 variable region sequence composition samples triplicate.
