Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2522 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Frequent mutation of the PI3K pathway in head and neck cancer defines predictive biomarkers

Vivian Wai Yan Lui, +28 more
- 01 Jul 2013 - 
TL;DR: Analysis of whole-exome sequencing data from 151 tumors revealed the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway to be the most frequently mutated oncogenic pathway, suggesting that PI3K pathway mutations may serve as predictive biomarkers for treatment selection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly accurate diagnosis of cancer in thyroid nodules with follicular neoplasm/suspicious for a follicular neoplasm cytology by ThyroSeq v2 next-generation sequencing assay.

Yuri E. Nikiforov, +13 more
- 01 Dec 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this study, the authors tested whether the most complete next‐generation sequencing (NGS) panel of genetic markers could significantly improve cancer diagnosis in thyroid nodules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of the Multi-Gene ThyroSeq Next-Generation Sequencing Assay on Cancer Diagnosis in Thyroid Nodules with Atypia of Undetermined Significance/Follicular Lesion of Undetermined Significance Cytology

Yuri E. Nikiforov, +12 more
- 06 Nov 2015 - 
TL;DR: The results of the study demonstrate that the ThyroSeq v2.1 multi-gene NGS panel of molecular markers provides both high sensitivity and high specificity for cancer detection in thyroid nodules with AUS/FLUS cytology, which should allow improved management for these patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immune Landscape of Viral- and Carcinogen-Driven Head and Neck Cancer

Anthony R. Cillo, +16 more
- 14 Jan 2020 - 
TL;DR: A gene expression signature associated with CD4+ T follicular helper cells that is associated with longer progression-free survival in HNSCC patients is defined and provided a resource for the further study of the impact of immune cells on viral- and carcinogen-induced cancers.
