Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid KRAS, EGFR, BRAF and PIK3CA mutation analysis of fine needle aspirates from non-small-cell lung cancer using allele-specific qPCR.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that these standard molecular techniques can be accurately applied on fine needle cytological aspirates from NSCLC patients and show that all mutations detected in the histological material of primary tumor were also identified in the cytological samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Gene Group Analysis Reveals a Role of Synaptic Heterotrimeric G Proteins in Cognitive Ability

TL;DR: Although alterations in synaptic signaling processes may not be the exclusive explanation for the association of heterotrimeric G proteins with cognitive ability, such alterations may prominently affect the properties of neurons in the brain in such a manner that impaired cognitive ability and lower intelligence are observed.
