Innovation in Informatics to Improve Clinical Care and Drug Accessibility for Rare Diseases in China

In China, there are severe unmet medical needs of people living with rare diseases. Relatedly, there is a dearth of data to inform rare diseases policy. This is historically partially due to the lack of informatics infrastructure, including standards and terminology, data sharing mechanisms and network; and concerns over patient privacy protection.

Temporally restricted activation of IFNβ signaling determines response to immune checkpoint therapy

The biological determinants of the response to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) in cancer remain incompletely understood. Little is known about dynamic biological events that underpin therapeutic efficacy due to the inability to frequently sample tumours in patients.

Searching for a technology-driven acute rheumatic fever test: the START study protocol

The absence of a diagnostic test for acute rheumatic fever (ARF) is a major impediment in managing this serious childhood condition. ARF is an autoimmune condition triggered by infection with group A Streptococcus.

Transcribed enhancers lead waves of coordinated transcription in transitioning mammalian cells

Our data support a highly generalizable model in which enhancer transcription is the earliest event in successive waves of transcriptional change during...

Transcriptional dynamics reveal critical roles for non-coding RNAs in the immediate-early response

The immediate-early response mediates cell fate in response to a variety of extracellular stimuli and is dysregulated in many cancers.

Technical Advance: Transcription factor, promoter, and enhancer utilization in human myeloid cells

The generation of myeloid cells from their progenitors is regulated at the level of transcription by combinatorial control of key transcription factors...

Gateways to the FANTOM5 promoter level mammalian expression atlas

The FANTOM5 project investigates transcription initiation activities in more than 1,000 human and mouse primary cells, cell lines and tissues using CAGE.

TagDust2: A generic method to extract reads from sequencing data.

Arguably the most basic step in the analysis of next generation sequencing data (NGS) involves the extraction of mappable reads from the raw reads...

Telomerase reverse transcriptase regulates microRNAs.

This study reports that telomerase reverse transcriptase extensively affects the expression levels of mature microRNAs.

Cellular and molecular changes to cortical neurons following low intensity repetitive magnetic stimulation at different frequencies

A systematic comparison of the cellular and molecular changes in neurons in vitro induced by low intensity magnetic stimulation at different frequencies.
