Ancestry-specific predisposing germline variants in cancer
Abstract Background: Distinct prevalence of inherited genetic predisposition may partially explain the difference of cancer risks across ancestries. Ancestry-specific analyses…
Comprehensive molecular characterization of mitochondrial genomes in human cancers
Abstract Mitochondria are essential cellular organelles that play critical roles in cancer. Here, as part of the International Cancer Genome…
Divergent mutational processes distinguish hypoxic and normoxic tumours
Abstract Many primary tumours have low levels of molecular oxygen (hypoxia), and hypoxic tumours respond poorly to therapy. Pan-cancer molecular…
Pan-Cancer Analysis of lncRNA Regulation Supports Their Targeting of Cancer Genes in Each Tumor Context
Abstract Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are commonly dysregulated in tumors, but only a handful are known to play pathophysiological roles…
