Background: Cancer genome sequencing enables accurate classification of tumours and tumour subtypes. However, prediction performance is still limited using exome-only sequencing and for tumour types with low somatic mutation burden such as many paediatri ...
Genomic instability enhances cancer progression by favoring clonal diversity, yet uncontrolled replicative stress can lead to mitotic catastrophe and inflammatory responses promoting immune rejection. KRAB-containing zinc finger proteins (KZFPs) are epigen ...
Damage to DNA is a central mechanism to the initiation of carcinogenesis. As a consequence, precise DNA damage detection is essential for an effective risk assessment of xenobiotics and constitutes a powerful tool for human biomonitoring and early stage ca ...
Cancer is one of the biggest medical challenges of our times, with a devastating impact across all social categories. Accordingly, considerable efforts are geared towards improving the standard of care. Among them, immunotherapy, which relies on the immune ...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a frequently lethal disease with heterogeneous outcomes and drug responses. To resolve inconsistencies among the reported gene expression-based CRC classifications and facilitate clinical translation, we formed an international c ...
Recently we published two independent studies describing novel gene expression-based classifications of colorectal cancer (CRC). Notably, each study stratified CRC into a different number of subtypes: one reported 3 subtypes, whereas the second highlighted ...
