Non-leukemic pediatric mixed phenotype acute leukemia/lymphoma: genomic characterization and clinical outcome in a prospective trial for pediatric lymphoblastic lymphoma
(Wiley, 2018-12-22)
Rare cases of hematological precursor neoplasms fulfill the diagnostic criteria of mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL), characterized by expression patterns of at least two hematopoietic lineages, for which a highly ...
Chromosomes trapped in micronuclei are liable to segregation errors
(Company Biologist LTD, 2018-07-09)
DNA in micronuclei is likely to get damaged. When shattered DNA from micronuclei gets reincorporated into the primary nucleus, aberrant rearrangements can take place, a phenomenon referred to as chromothripsis. Here, we ...
Genetic Variants and Hamstring Injury in Soccer: An Association and Validation Study
(American College of Sports Medicine, 2018-02)
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the association of candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) with noncontact hamstring muscle injuries in elite soccer players and to create and validate a model to assess the ...
Variants in the 14q32 miRNA cluster are associated with osteosarcoma risk in the Spanish population
(Nature Publishing, 2018-10-18)
Association studies in osteosarcoma risk found significant results in intergenic regions, suggesting that regions which do not codify for proteins could play an important role. The deregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) has ...
Involvement of SNPs in miR-3117 and miR-3689d2 in Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Risk
(Board, 2018-04-01)
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer in children. Numerous studies have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) could play a role in this disease. Nowadays, more than 2500 miRNAs have been described, that ...
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, ...
Genetic and environmental factors affecting birth size variation: a pooled individual-based analysis of secular trends and global geographical differences using 26 twin cohorts
(Oxford University Press, 2018-05-19)
Background: The genetic architecture of birth size may differ geographically and over
time. We examined differences in the genetic and environmental contributions to birthweight,
length and ponderal index (PI) across ...
