Inconsistencies in Neanderthal Genomic DNA Sequences
Two recently published papers describe nuclear DNA sequences that were obtained from the same Neanderthal fossil. Our reanalyses of the data from these studies show that they are not consistent with each other and point to serious problems with the data quality in one of the studies, possibly due to modern human DNA contaminants and/or a high rate of sequencing errors.
متن کاملMouse p53-Deficient Cancer Models as Platforms for Obtaining Genomic Predictors of Human Cancer Clinical Outcomes
Mutations in the TP53 gene are very common in human cancers, and are associated with poor clinical outcome. Transgenic mouse models lacking the Trp53 gene or that express mutant Trp53 transgenes produce tumours with malignant features in many organs. We previously showed the transcriptome of a p53-deficient mouse skin carcinoma model to be similar to those of human cancers with TP53 mutations a...
متن کاملMouse models of cancer as biological filters for complex genomic data.
Genetically and pathologically accurate mouse models of leukemia and lymphoma have been developed in recent years. Adoptive transfer of genetically modified hematopoietic progenitor cells enables rapid and highly controlled gain- and loss-of-function studies for these types of cancer. In this Commentary, we discuss how these highly versatile experimental approaches can be used as biological fil...
متن کاملCancer genetics: mouse models of intestinal cancer.
The capacity to model cancer within the mouse has advanced significantly in recent years. Perhaps the most notable technical gains have been in the development of techniques that allow the temporal and spatial control of gene expression, so that it is now possible to regulate target genes in the tissue of choice and at a given time [Maddison and Clarke (2005) J. Pathol. 205, 181-193; Shaw and C...
متن کاملMouse models of intestinal cancer.
Murine models of intestinal cancer are powerful tools to recapitulate human intestinal cancer, understand its biology and test therapies. With recent developments identifying the importance of the tumour microenvironment and the potential for immunotherapy, autochthonous genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) will remain an important part of preclinical studies for the foreseeable future. ...
