Ultrasensitive Screening Platform Detects Pathogenic Bacteria

A diagnostic platform has been developed that significantly increases the sensitivity of high-throughput sequencing for detection and characterization of bacteria, virulence determinants, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes. More...

Functional Genomic Landscape of AML Analyzed

Acute myeloid leukemia is a cancer of the myeloid line of blood cells, characterized by the rapid growth of abnormal cells that build up in the bone marrow and blood and interfere with normal blood cells. More...

Myeloproliferative Neoplasms Fall into Genetic Subgroups

Myeloproliferative neoplasms are a group of chronic blood cancers associated with a risk of bleeding and blood clots, but they can also progress to more advanced disease, including leukemia. More...

Multidrug-Resistant TB Outbreak Undetected by Standard Tests

Rapid diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to anti-tuberculosis drugs is essential to prevent further acquisition of drug resistance, high morbidity and mortality, and unabated transmission of resistant strains. More...

Chronic Inflammation Linked to Risk for Alzheimer's Disease

While it has been widely shown that possessing the apolipoprotein E4 (ApoE4) gene is the major genetic risk factor of Alzheimer's disease (AD), not all ApoE4 carriers develop AD. It is likely that a complex interaction of genetic vulnerabilities with environmental risk factors lead to AD and identifying such factors could be beneficial for the prevention of AD. More...

Fatal Prostate Cancer Differentiated from Manageable Cancer

Human prostate cancers display numerous DNA methylation changes compared to normal tissue samples. However, definitive identification of features related to the cells’ malignant status has been compromised by the predominance of cells with luminal features in prostate cancers. More...

High-Risk HPV Evaluated for Invasive Cervical Cancer

Cervical cancer is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in women worldwide and the role of high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) in the development of invasive cervical cancer (ICC) is well established. More...
