HCV-induced Epigenetic Changes Associated With Liver Cancer Risk Persist After Sustained Virologic Response
Epigenetic reprogramming drives HCV liver cancer risk following DAA cure. Continue reading
GNAI1 and GNAI3 Reduce Colitis-Associated Tumorigenesis in Mice by Blocking IL6 Signaling and Downregulating Expression of GNAI2
Interleukin 6 (IL6) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) contribute to the development of colitis-associated cancer (CAC). We investigated these signaling pathways and the involvement of G protein subunit alpha i1 (GNAI1), GNAI2, and GNAI3 in the developmen… Continue reading
Association Between Antibiotics in the First Year of Life and Celiac Disease
The intestinal microbiota is thought to be involved in pathogenesis of celiac disease, along with genetic variants and dietary gluten. The gut microbiota is strongly influenced by systemic antibiotics—especially in early life. We explored the associa… Continue reading
Real-time Targeted Genome Profile Analysis of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinomas Identifies Genetic Alterations that Might be Targeted with Existing Drugs or Used as Biomarkers
It has been a challenge to select treatment for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs) based on genome alterations. We performed targeted genomic profile analyses of a large number of PDACs to assess the full spectrum of actionable gen… Continue reading
