While the genes involved can differ, this example illustrates how most cancers arise. Accumulated DNA mutations, acquired either over time (ageing naturally leads to some DNA mistakes) or from ...

A phase I open-label study of Ad-RTS-hIL-12, an adenoviral vector engineered to express hIL-12 under the control of an oral activator ligand, in subjects with unresectable stage III/IV melanoma.

Purpose: Most cystic fibrosis mutation screening methods do not detect large exon deletions or duplications in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator gene. We looked for such mutations in ...

One of the key mutations seen in the 'Alpha variant' of SARS-CoV-2 - the deletion of two amino acids, H69/V70 - enables the virus to overcome chinks in its armor as it evolves, say an international ...

Purpose: To develop a high resolution microarray based method to detect single- and multiexons gene deletions and duplications. Methods: We have developed a high-resolution comparative genomic ...
