Molecular classification and prognostication of adrenocortical tumors by transcriptome profiling.
PURPOSE Our understanding of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) has improved considerably, yet many unanswered questions remain. For instance, can molecular subtypes of ACC be identified? If so, what is their underlying pathogenetic basis and do they possess clinical significance? EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We did a whole genome gene expression study of a large cohort of adrenocortical tissues annotated...
متن کاملMolecular predictors in glioblastoma: toward personalized therapy.
Recent therapeutic advances have improved standard treatment for patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Unfortunately, even with these improvements, only a fraction of patients derive significant benefit and experience prolonged survival. These findings are consistent with long-standing clinical and recent molecular evidence that subtypes of glioblastoma exist with differing survival rates...
متن کاملPersonalized medicine-molecular targeted cancer therapy
chemotherapy. Metastatic or advanced cancers with limited effects of radiation and chemotherapy have been the challenging issue in recent cancer therapy. In this situation, the molecular target cancer therapy has been successfully accepted for various cancers. This type of therapy is to suppress the cell proliferation or induce apoptosis of cancer cells by targeting particular molecules which p...
متن کاملMolecular markers and targeted therapies for adrenocortical carcinoma.
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a lethal disease with poor prognosis and lack of effective therapeutic options. Systemic treatment is often employed to treat patients with advanced ACC, but outcomes are disappointing. During the last decade, some of the causative genetic mutations in sporadic ACCs have been identified. Molecular analysis has had a significant impact on the understanding of th...
متن کاملGreat challenges in molecular medicine: toward personalized medicine
GENE HUNTING, SIGNALING NETWORK, AND MOLECULAR MEDICINE In the 20th century, most researchers investigated WNT signaling in cell and developmental biology by using model animals, such as Drosophila, Xenopus, and mouse. However, I was confident that WNT signaling should be investigated for clinical application by using human samples or cell lines. In 1998, I, together with post-doctoral fellows,...
