Uncovering disease mechanisms through network biology in the era of Next Generation Sequencing
Characterizing the behavior of disease genes in the context of biological networks has the potential to shed light on disease mechanisms, and to reveal both new candidate disease genes and therapeutic targets. Previous studies addressing the network properties of disease genes have produced contradictory results. Here we have explored the causes of these discrepancies and assessed the relations...
متن کاملInsights into cancer biology through next-generation sequencing.
Cancer is the ultimate disorder of the genome, characterised not by just one or two mutations, but by hundreds to thousands of acquired mutations that have been accrued through the development of a tumour. Thanks to the recent increase in the speed of sequencing offered by modern sequencing technologies, we are no longer restricted to exploring tiny fragments of protein-coding portions of the h...
متن کاملUnderstanding pathogens in the era of next generation sequencing.
What is a pathogen? Medical textbooks usually define a pathogen as any microorganism that causes disease. However, this widespread definition is problematic on a number of counts [1, 11]. Moreover, a generally accepted definition is not forthcoming among medical microbiologists, immunologists, and physicians. Here it is argued that there is another, and more pressing question to be asked, namel...
متن کاملClinical care models in the era of next‐generation sequencing
Personalized (or precision) medicine utilizes genomic sequence for diagnosis, identifying, and managing presymptomatic conditions, and for evaluating risks and guiding treatments (Bowdin et al. 2016). Whole exome sequencing (WES) is a critical tool for the implementation of personalized medicine and had a transformative impact on patient care in the few years since its inception as a clinical t...
متن کاملanalysis of power in the network society
اندیشمندان و صاحب نظران علوم اجتماعی بر این باورند که مرحله تازه ای در تاریخ جوامع بشری اغاز شده است. ویژگیهای این جامعه نو را می توان پدیده هایی از جمله اقتصاد اطلاعاتی جهانی ، هندسه متغیر شبکه ای، فرهنگ مجاز واقعی ، توسعه حیرت انگیز فناوری های دیجیتال، خدمات پیوسته و نیز فشردگی زمان و مکان برشمرد. از سوی دیگر قدرت به عنوان موضوع اصلی علم سیاست جایگاه مهمی در روابط انسانی دارد، قدرت و بازتولید...
