Journal ArticleDOI
Next-Generation Sequencing in Oncology: Genetic Diagnosis, Risk Prediction and Cancer Classification.
Rick Kamps,Rita D. Brandão,Bianca J.C. van den Bosch,Aimee D C Paulussen,Sofia Xanthoulea,Marinus J. Blok,Andrea Romano +6 more
TL;DR: This review describes the recent technological developments in NGS applied to the field of oncology and a number of clinical applications are reviewed, i.e., mutation detection in inherited cancer syndromes based on DNA- sequencing, detection of spliceogenic variants based on RNA-sequencing, DNA-sequenced to identify risk modifiers and application for pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, cancer somatic mutation analysis, pharmacogenetics and liquid biopsy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estrogen metabolizing enzymes in endometrium and endometriosis
H. Dassen,Chamindie Punyadeera,Rick Kamps,Bert Delvoux,A. Van Langendonckt,Jacques Donnez,B. Husen,H. Thole,Gerard A.J. Dunselman,Patrick G. Groothuis +9 more
TL;DR: In endometriosis lesions, the balance is tilted in favor of enzymes producing E(2) due to a suppression of types 2 and 4 17 beta-HSD, and an increased expression of aromatase and type 1 17beta-HSS in ectopic endometrium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oestrogen-modulated gene expression in the human endometrium
Chamindie Punyadeera,H. Dassen,J. Klomp,Gerard A.J. Dunselman,Rick Kamps,F. Dijcks,A. Ederveen,A.F.P.M. de Goeij,Patrick G. Groothuis +8 more
TL;DR: Observations emphasise that the regulation of endometrium maturation by oestrogen entails more then just stimulation of cell proliferation, as well as being influenced by the in vivo environment as well.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exome sequencing reveals a novel Moroccan founder mutation in SLC19A3 as a new cause of early-childhood fatal Leigh syndrome
Mike Gerards,Rick Kamps,Jo van Oevelen,Iris B W Boesten,Eveline Jongen,Bart de Koning,Hans R. Scholte,Isabel B. de Angst,Kees Schoonderwoerd,Abdelaziz Sefiani,Ilham Ratbi,Wouter Coppieters,Latifa Karim,René de Coo,Bianca J.C. van den Bosch,Hubert J.M. Smeets +15 more
TL;DR: The data shows that SLC19A3 is a new candidate for mutation screening in patients with Leigh syndrome, who might benefit from high doses of thiamine and/or biotin, and especially, Moroccan patients withLeigh syndrome should be tested for the c.20C>A founder mutation in SLC 19A3.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression and regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor ligands and receptors during menstruation and post-menstrual repair of human endometrium
Chamindie Punyadeera,Victor L. Thijssen,S Tchaikovski,Rick Kamps,Bert Delvoux,Gerard A.J. Dunselman,A.F.P.M. de Goeij,Arjan W. Griffioen,Patrick G. Groothuis +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the mRNA expression levels of all known vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) ligands and receptors in human endometrium collected in the menstrual and proliferative phases of the menstrual cycle were analyzed.
