High-plex spatial RNA profiling reveals cell type-specific biomarker expression during melanoma development.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used spatial transcript profiling that maintains the morphological tumor context to measure expression of >1,000 RNAs in situ in patient-derived formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections in primary melanoma and melanocytic nevi.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regional perturbation of gene transcription is associated with intrachromosomal rearrangements and gene fusion transcripts in high grade ovarian cancer

TL;DR: The association of gene fusion transcripts with neighboring gene overexpression supports rearrangements as mechanism through which cancer cells remodel their transcriptomes and identifies a new way to utilize gene fusions as indicators of regional expression changes in diseased cells with only transcriptomic data.

A Comprehensive Assessment of Somatic Mutation Calling in Cancer Genomes

Tyler Alioto, +60 more
- 24 Dec 2014 - 
TL;DR: It is concluded that somatic mutation calling remains an unsolved problem and critical issues that need to be addressed before this valuable technology can be routinely used to inform clinical decision-making are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-enzymic glycation of proteins: analysis of N-(1-deoxyhexitol-1-yl)amino acids by high-performance liquid chromatography.

TL;DR: A method for determining the extent of non-enzymic glycation of both lysyl and N-terminal residues of a protein is described and has been applied successfully to samples of human hemoglobin and human serum albumin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Future Promises and Concerns of Ubiquitous Next-Generation Sequencing.

TL;DR: Personal genomics has arrived and is already being used in the clinic, but significant privacy issues remain, however, and these are not widely understood.
