Cell-of-Origin Patterns Dominate the Molecular Classification of 10,000 Tumors from 33 Types of Cancer.

Katherine A Hoadley, +738 more
- 05 Apr 2018 - 
TL;DR: Molecular similarities among histologically or anatomically related cancer types provide a basis for focused pan-cancer analyses, such as pan-gastrointestinal, Pan-gynecological, pan-kidney, and pan-squamous cancers, and those related by stemness features, which may inform strategies for future therapeutic development.

The 2016 WHO Classification of Tumours of the Urinary System and Male Genital Organs-Part B: Prostate and Bladder Tumours.

TL;DR: Modifications to the Gleason grading system are incorporated into the 2016 WHO section on grading of prostate cancer, and it is recommended that the percentage of pattern 4 should be reported for Gleason score 7.

Signatures of mutational processes in human cancer

Ludmil B. Alexandrov, +84 more
- 22 Aug 2013 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that hypermutation localized to small genomic regions, ‘kataegis’, is found in many cancer types, and this results reveal the diversity of mutational processes underlying the development of cancer.

Mutational heterogeneity in cancer and the search for new cancer-associated genes

Michael S. Lawrence, +96 more
- 11 Jul 2013 - 
TL;DR: A fundamental problem with cancer genome studies is described: as the sample size increases, the list of putatively significant genes produced by current analytical methods burgeons into the hundreds and the list includes many implausible genes, suggesting extensive false-positive findings that overshadow true driver events.
