Systematic Review of the Potential of MicroRNAs in Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma
(MDPI, 2019-01-26)
Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of invasive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). DLBCL presents with variable backgrounds, which results in heterogeneous outcomes among patients. Although new tools ...
Genetic and metabolic determinants of methotrexate-induced mucositis in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(Springer Nature, 2014-11-04)
Methotrexate (MTX) is an effective and toxic chemotherapeutic drug in the treatment of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL). In this prospective study, we aimed to identify metabolic and genetic determinants of MTX ...
Potential relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms used in forensic genetics and diseases or other traits in European population
(Springer, 2015-03-13)
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are an interesting option to facilitate the analysis of highly degraded DNA by allowing the reduction of the size of the DNA amplicons. The SNPforID 52-plex panel is a clear example ...
A Genome-Wide Study of Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms in MicroRNAs and Further In Silico Analysis Reveals Their Putative Role in Susceptibility to Late-Onset Alzheimer's Disease.
(Springer Nature, 2020-09-06)
Late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) is a neurodegenerative disorder of growing relevance in an aging society for which predictive biomarkers are needed. Many genes involved in LOAD are tightly controlled by microRNAs ...
Genetics of ancestry-specific risk for relapse in acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(Springer Nature, 2017-01-18)
The causes of individual relapses in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) remain incompletely understood. We evaluated the contribution of germline genetic factors to relapse in 2225 children treated on Children's ...
Integrative genomic analyses reveal mechanisms of glucocorticoid resistance in acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(Springer Nature, 2020-03)
Identification of genomic and epigenomic determinants of drug resistance provides important insights for improving cancer treatment. Using agnostic genome-wide interrogation of mRNA and miRNA expression, DNA methylation, ...
Impact of polymorphisms in apoptosis-related genes on the outcome of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia
(Wiley, 2018-05-29)
Despite intensification of therapy, 20% of children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) relapse (Ceppi et al, 2015). The different response to chemotherapy may be partially explained by inherited genetic variants, ...
