Cancer is driven by multiple types of genetic alterations, which range in size from point mutations to whole-chromosome gains and losses, known as aneuploidy. Chromosome …
Metastatic disease is responsible for the majority of cancer-related deaths. We report the longitudinal evolutionary analysis of 126 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumours from …

Cancer genome-sequencing studies have revealed a remarkably high prevalence of mutations in genes encoding subunits of the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodelling complexes …
BACKGROUND Chromatin is the essential medium through which transcription factors, signaling pathways, and other cues alter gene activity and cellular phenotypes. It assumes …
Cancer develops through a process of somatic evolution,. Sequencing data from a single biopsy represent a snapshot of this process that can reveal the timing of specific genomic …

Brain, the major organ of the central nervous system controls and processes most of body activities. Therefore, the most aggressive brain tumor–glioblastoma and metastases from …
Patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) have become a prominent cancer model system, as they are presumed to faithfully represent the genomic features of primary tumors. Here we …
Patterns of genomic evolution between primary and metastatic breast cancer have not been studied in large numbers, despite patients with metastatic breast cancer having dismal …
