Abstract:
Abstract The clinical manifestations of inherited susceptibility to leukemia encompass a wide phenotypic range, including patients with certain congenital anomalies or early-onset myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and some with no obvious medical problems until they develop leukemia. Leukemia susceptibility syndromes occur as a result of autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked recessive inheritance, or de novo occurrence, of germline pathogenic variants in DNA repair, ribosome biogenesis, telomere biology, hematopoietic transcription factors, tumor suppressors, and other critical cel

Abstract:
Human cancers exhibit genomic instability and an increased mutation rate due to underlying defects in DNA repair. Cancer cells are often defective in one of six major DNA repair pathways, namely: mismatch repair, base excision repair, nucleotide excision repair, homologous recombination, nonhomologous endjoining and translesion synthesis. The specific DNA repair pathway affected is predictive of the kinds of mutations, the tumor drug sensitivity, and the treatment outcome. The study of rare inherited DNA repair disorders, such as Fanconi anemia, has yielded new insights to drug sensitivity and

Among pediatric cancer survivors, those with the E4 allele of Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) are more likely to exhibit cognitive dysfunction than those with the more prevalent ApoE3 allele, suggesting the ApoE4 allele increases susceptibility to CICI.

Abstract BACKGROUND Central nervous system (CNS) tumors are the second most common childhood cancer. Despite innovations in surgery and chemo-/radiotherapy, CNS tumors remain the major cause of cancer-related death in children. Previous sequencing analyses in a pediatric cancer cohort identified BRCA and DSB repair signatures as potentially targetable events. Based on these findings, we propose the use of PARP inhibitors (PARPi) for aggressive CNS tumor subtypes, including high-grade glioma (HGG), medulloblastoma (MB) and ependymoma (EPN). METHODS We tested multiple PARPi in tumor cell lines (

Background: Despite the introduction of antibiotics significantly reducing the mortality associated with Salmonella Typhi infections, the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) strains has created a critical public health challenge, particularly in endemic regions like Pakistan. The increasing resistance limits treatment options, complicates disease management, and underscores the need for continuous surveillance, especially among vulnerable pediatric populations including those with underlying malignancies.

Neck ultrasound (nUS) is the cornerstone of clinical management of thyroid nodules in pediatric patients, as well as adults. The current study was carried out to explore and compare the diagnostic performance of the main US-based risk stratification systems (RSSs) (i.e., the American College of Radiology (ACR), European (EU), Korean (K) TI-RADSs and ATA US RSS criteria) for detecting malignant thyroid lesions in pediatric patients.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Previously thought to be rare, recent case series have shown that IDH mutations in young patients are more common than previously described. In this study, we analyzed IDH-mutant tumors to determine clinical significance of these mutations in children, adolescents and young adults. METHODS Through this multi-institution study (10 institutions), we collected 64 IDH1/2-mutant infiltrating astrocytoma specimens from 58 patients aged 4–26 (M:F, 0.4:0.6). Specimens included 46 low-grade (LGG) and 18 high-grade (HGG) astrocytomas. Tumor sequencing data (n=45), germline sequenci

Abstract Survivors of childhood hematologic malignancies are at a substantially higher risk of developing subsequent neoplasms (SNs) when compared with the general population. SNs commonly observed in this population include basal cell carcinoma, brain tumors, thyroid cancer, breast cancer, bone tumors, and sarcoma. Radiation is the primary therapeutic exposure associated with the development of these SNs. There is emerging evidence of an association between chemotherapeutic exposures (alkylating agents/anthracyclines) and the development of SNs. Despite a strong dose-dependent association bet

Risk factors for pediatric brain tumors are largely unknown. Identifying spatial clusters of these rare tumors on the basis of residential address may provide insights into childhood socio-environmental factors that increase susceptibility. From 2000–2017, the Texas Cancer Registry recorded 4305 primary brain tumors diagnosed among children (≤19 years old). We performed a spatial analysis in SaTScan to identify neighborhoods (census tracts) where the observed number of pediatric brain tumors was higher than expected. Within each census tract, the number of pediatric brain tumors was summed on

Abstract:
During recent years, novel approaches and new technologies have revealed a startling level of complexity of higher eukaryotes' transcriptome. A large proportion of the transcriptional output is represented by protein noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) that arise from the “dark matter” of the genome. Focus on such sequences has revealed numerous RNA subtypes with several functions in RNA processing and gene expression regulation, and deep sequencing studies imply that many remain to be discovered.

This creates a unique opportunity to develop improved methods to identify children at increased risk for cancer, enable early detection or prevention of tumors, and improve cure rates with decreased morbidity.
