Surgical resection of colorectal cancers (CRC) that have not invaded beyond the bowel wall (i.e. Stage I) can achieve 5-year patient survival rates exceeding 90%. In the majority of Stage I cases with T1 (submucosal) or T2 (not beyond the muscularis propria) depth of tumour invasion, surgery alone i...
As international collaborative research grows there is increasing desire to transport specimens around the globe. Transporting biological samples such as cells or tissues is complicated by the need to maintain integrity and minimise modification and degradation, but this is economically costly as th...
Recurrent somatic H3 K27M mutations characterize midline pediatric high-grade astrocytomas (pHGAs). In 40 treatment-naïve midline pHGAs we find additional somatic mutations specific to tumor location. Gain-of-function mutations in ACVR1 occur in tumors of the pons in conjunction with H3.1K27M, whil...
Whole exome sequencing of paediatric glioblastoma with mutations reported in the manuscript: Mutations in ACVR1, FGFR1 and TP53 associate with tumor location in histone H3 K27M pediatric midline high-grade astrocytoma
Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of WT, K27M, G34R and IDH1glioblastomas Bisulphite converted DNA from 38 WT, 28 K27M, 17 IDH1 AND 15 G34R samples hybridised to the Illumina 450k Human Methylation Beadchip
