Multiomics tools for improved atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease management
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Multiomics studies offer accurate preventive and therapeutic strategies for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) beyond traditional risk factors. By using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) ... -
Multisteroid LC-MS/MS assay for glucocorticoids and androgens, and its application in Addison’s disease
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)Objective: Liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) offers superior analytical specificity compared with immunoassays, but it is not available in many regions and hospitals due to expensive instrumentation ... -
The multitude of molecular analyses in cancer: the opening of Pandora’s box
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-09-03)The availability of large amounts of molecular data of unprecedented depth and width has instigated new paths of interdisciplinary activity in cancer research. Translation of such information to allow its optimal use in ... -
Musculoskeletal Chronic Graft versus Host Disease-A Rare Complication to Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant: A Case-Based Report and Review of the Literature
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Musculoskeletal graft versus host disease (GVHD) is a rare manifestation of chronic GVHD (cGVHD) following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Left untreated, the disease can cause extensive ... -
Mutation Spectrum in Liquid Versus Solid Biopsies From Patients With Advanced astroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Carcinoma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Purpose Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine carcinomas (GEP-NEC) are rare and have a poor prognosis. Most GEP-NEC are diagnosed with metastatic disease, with only minor biopsies available for molecular diagnostics. We ... -
Mutational Signature 3 Detected from Clinical Panel Sequencing is Associated with Responses to Olaparib in Breast and Ovarian Cancers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Purpose: The identification of patients with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) beyond BRCA1/2 mutations is an urgent task, as they may benefit from PARP inhibitors. We have previously developed a method to detect ... -
Mutations in TP53 increase the risk of SOX2 copy number alterations and silencing of TP53 reduces SOX2 expression in non-small cell lung cancer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-01-19)Background: Amplifications of the transcription factor, SRY (sex determining region Y)-box 2 (SOX2), are common in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). SOX2 signaling is important in maintaining the stem cell-like phenotype ... -
