Single-cell pharmacogenomic landscapes of epigenetic therapy revealed by gastric cancer Perturb-seq
Abstract Gene expression signatures (“molecular phenotypes”) are extensively utilized in cancer research. To study how gastric cancer molecular phenotypes are regulated by cell-intrinsic genetic alterations interacting with cell-extrinsic therapeutic pressures, we performed direct capture Perturb-seq to interrogate >200 gastric cancer-related genes against 4 distinct epigenetic therapies in normal gastric and gastric cancer lines.

Telomere variant sequences encode the genetic blueprint for allele-specific telomere length
Abstract The ends of human chromosomes are capped by specialized nucleoprotein structures, termed telomeres, which are essential for genome stability. Recent advances in long-read sequencing have enabled allele-specific telomere length measurements at nucleotide resolution, uncovering extreme heterogeneity in telomere length between alleles. The progressive telomere shortening over time makes steady-state telomere length in human somatic cells a promising biomarker for age-associated diseases.

DP103 as a critical modulator of Wnt signaling and cancer stemness: implications for precision treatment in triple negative breast cancer
|
Abstract Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a clinically aggressive subtype lacking targeted therapies, often characterized by hyperactivation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and an enriched population of cancer stem cells (CSCs). Here, we identify the DEAD-box RNA helicase DP103 as a novel modulator of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in TNBC, acting independently of its canonical helicase function.

AI-induced never-skilling in medical education
Abstract The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into medical training is accelerating faster than the educational frameworks designed to govern it.
