Hematological Neoplasm Cytogenetics Profiled With Optical Genome Mapping

The current standard-of-care cytogenetic techniques for the analysis of hematological malignancies include karyotyping, fluorescence in situ hybridization, and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), which are labor intensive and time and cost prohibitive, and they often do not reveal the genetic complexity of the tumor, demonstrating the need for alternative technology for better characterization of these tumors.

Super-Enhancer Induces Oncogenic Driver in Colorectal Carcinoma

The etiology of super-enhancer (SE) reprogramming in cancer is incompletely understood, but is widely attributed to cancer cell-intrinsic genomic alterations. Non-coding SE can become focally amplified in multiple malignancies. More...

Simple Blood Test Could Offer Smarter Treatment for Children’s Cancer

A new study has found that a simple blood test could help guide the treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare type of cancer that mostly affects children. Researchers found that ‘liquid biopsy’ blood tests could pick up signs that a cancer had returned, assess the severity of the disease, and help guide choice of drugs. More...

AI Diagnostic Tool Could Deliver Results in Two Minutes Using Fingertip Sample

Scientists developing a platform that would use AI to speed up the process of detecting biomarkers in biofluids have shown that the concept could work, paving the way for faster test results for health conditions such as cardiovascular disorders, joint quality, and Alzheimer’s. More...

Periodontal Rapid Diagnostic Test Could Calculate Risk for Heart and Lung Disease

Researchers developing a rapid test for gum disease expect the technology - a probe for use in point of care settings such as dental surgeries or pharmacies - to play a pivotal role in early detection of heart or lung disease, type 2 diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. More...

AI-Based Prenatal Blood Test Identifies Dangerous Fetal Heart Defects before Birth

A new blood test for pregnant women uses artificial intelligence (AI) and genetic-related biomarkers to accurately detect, fetal congenital heart defects, well before birth. More...
