Researchers used single-cell sequencing to uncover karyotype heterogeneity within mouse and human cancers and predicted that it might be linked to outcomes.
Truncations to PD-L1's 3' untranslated region were detected in a variety of tumor types, apparently increasing expression of the gene and decreasing immune response to it.
Researchers have sequenced and analyzed more than 50 feral and domestic cats in search of genetic variants involved in specific physical features and forms of disease.
In Science this week: ancient Ethiopian genome indicates greater Eurasian backflow into Africa, sequencing to diagnose cutaneous T cell lymphoma, and more.
An NGS-based assay was better at diagnosing CTCL than PCR-based tests, and could distinguish between malignant and benign skin lesions and identify recurrence.
