Saki Nakashima, Kenichiro Sato, Yoshiki Niimi et al.
Passive anti–amyloid-β immunotherapy has shifted from repeated phase 3 failure to reproducible, although modest, clinical slowing in biomarker-defined early Alzheimer's disease. We review lessons from first-generation antibodies, includi...

Rachel M. Hurley, Hesham Mohei, Malay Haldar
The tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) has emerged as a crucial regulator of antitumor immune responses with important therapeutic, prognostic, and predictive implications. Despite the success of immunotherapies in select solid tumors,...

Juan J. Montero, Christian J. Braun, Michael Sattler et al.
Ninety-eight percent of the human transcriptome lacks protein-coding potential. A small fraction of this landscape comprises housekeeping noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) with well-defined functions, whereas the heterogeneous group of regulatory ...

Enhancer Hijacking in Hematological Malignancies

Open DOI
Roger Mulet-Lazaro, Ruud Delwel
Cell identity is established by tightly regulated transcriptional programs. Disruption of the regulatory mechanisms governing these programs leads to aberrant behavior and, frequently, cancer. Enhancer hijacking, the process whereby a ge...

Ultrasensitive Protein Detection in Cancer

Open DOI
Stephanie J. Zhang, Kathleen H. Burns, David R. Walt
Circulating protein biomarkers may offer a minimally invasive way to diagnose and follow cancers, yet their clinical utility has been limited by biological and analytical constraints. Recent advances in ultrasensitive protein detection h...

Extrachromosomal Circular DNA in Pathobiology: Current State

Open DOI
Saba Tufail, Anindya Dutta
With advances in sequencing technologies and molecular tools, extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA), once considered a mere by-product of genomic instability, is now recognized as playing important roles in genome plasticity, gene regul...

Proteomics for Precision Oncology: Lessons from Liver Cancer

Open DOI
Amanda Smythers, Shelby Ruiz, Benjamin C. Orsburn
It is an exciting time for the field of proteomics, which has finally demonstrated the capabilities the term has long suggested. Today it is possible to deeply analyze the proteomes of up to 100 human samples at depth on a single instrum...

Joowon Um, Jacob W. Adelman, Elizabeth A. Pollina
The human genome is both fragile and resilient: prone to alteration yet protected by extensive repair mechanisms. With age, individuals accumulate genetic damage from environmental factors and cell-intrinsic processes, with effects rangi...

David R. Lynch, Sanjay I. Bidichandani, Jill S. Napierala et al.
Friedreich ataxia is a slowly progressive neurodegenerative disorder caused by GAA expansions in the FXN gene that lead to decreased transcription of the mRNA coding for frataxin protein. Such deficiency leads to impaired iron sulfur clu...
