Nature of Epigenetic Aging from a Single-Cell Perspective

Research on the Essence of Epigenetic Aging from a Single-Cell Perspective Research Background As biological research progresses, scientists have discovered that changes in DNA methylation (DNAm) constitute one of the most reliable predictors of age—known as the epigenetic clock. However, the mechanisms underlying what these clocks precisely measur...

Deep Learning of Imaging Phenotype and Genotype for Predicting Overall Survival Time of Glioblastoma Patients

Deep Learning of Imaging Phenotype and Genotype for Predicting Overall Survival Time of Glioblastoma Patients

Globally, the most common and deadly malignant brain tumor is glioblastoma (Glioblastoma, GBM). In recent years, research has continuously attempted to predict the overall survival time (OS) of GBM patients using machine learning techniques based on preoperative single-modality or multi-modality imaging phenotypes. Although these machine learning m...

CHD2 Regulates Neuron-Glioma Interactions in Pediatric Glioma

Research Report on the Regulation of Neuron-Glioma Interactions by CHD2 in Pediatric Gliomas Background High-grade gliomas (HGG) are fatal diseases in both adult and pediatric patients. Recent studies have shown that neuronal activity can promote the progression of various high-grade glioma subgroups. However, the epigenetic mechanisms regulating t...

St. Jude Survivorship Portal: Sharing and Analyzing Large Clinical and Genomic Datasets from Pediatric Cancer Survivors

St. Jude Survivorship Portal: Analysis and Sharing of Large-Scale Clinical and Genomic Data of Pediatric Cancer Survivors Research Background In the United States, the five-year survival rate for childhood cancer has increased from about 60% in the 1970s to over 85% today. Despite the significant improvement in survival rates, these childhood cance...

Identification of Clonal Hematopoiesis Driver Mutations Through In Silico Saturation Mutagenesis

Introduction In the process of healthy hematopoiesis, a group of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) contribute to all blood-related lineages. However, as we age, this process often leads to clonal hematopoiesis (CH), meaning the expansion of clones originating from a particular HSC, which then occupies a significant portion of blood cells and platelets...
