GPSai: A Clinically Validated AI Tool for Tissue of Origin Prediction During Routine Tumor Profiling
Abstract. A subset of cancers presents with unclear or potentially incorrect primary histopathologic diagnoses, including cancers of unknown primary (CUP). We aimed to develop and validate an artifici...

RNA polymerase II at histone genes predicts outcome in human cancer
Genome-wide hypertranscription is common in human cancer and predicts poor prognosis. To understand how hypertranscription might drive cancer, we applied our formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE)–cl...

New method for identifying spatially variable genes in spatial transcriptomics.

We use spectral graph theory to extract 1D curves related to tissue morphology, creating a more relevant coordinate system. Improves sensitivity.

The migration of MedTwitter, along with a large cohort of science journalists, to BlueSky is striking in its scale and rapidity. In a short time, this shift has effectively transformed BlueSky into the essential hub for breaking medical news and vibrant scientific discourse.

"Next-generation sequencing" started to be a misnomer after the subsequent generation of sequencing came along.

Now that we have users who were born after the commercial availability of "next-generation sequencing" it is truly ridiculous. 🧪🧬🖥️

Let me tell you about the work that we published last year in Nature Cancer (@natureportfolio.bsky.social). It was a tremendous effort from Jacquelin Taylor within Andreas Fischer's lab. In it, we describe a new role of endothelial cells to promote cancer cachexia: nature.com/articles/s4301… 1/6

(1/8) 🚀 Excited to share our findings on a large-scale ChIP-seq assay for 166 previously uncharacterized human transcription factors (TFs) and their roles in both regulatory regions, and more strikingly, the “dark matter” genome. 🌌 doi.org/10.1101/2024....
Extensive binding of uncharacterized human transcription factors to genomic dark matter
Most of the human genome is thought to be non-functional, and includes large segments often referred to as “dark matter” DNA. The genome also encodes hundreds of putative and poorly characterized tran...
