High expression of apoptosis-inducing factor, mitochondrion-associated 3 (AIFM3) in human cholangiocarcinoma
In conclusion, AIFM3 was aberrantly expressed only in the mitochondria of CCA tissues. This finding suggests that AIFM3 could be a potential target molecule for CCA chemotherapy. < /p > (Source: Tumor Biology)

Association of variants in BAFF (rs9514828 and rs1041569) and BAFF-R (rs61756766) genes with the risk of chronic lymphocytic leukemia
In conclusion, our results indicate that SNPs in < em class= " a-plus-plus " > BAFF < /em > and < em class= " a-plus-plus " > BAFF-R < /em > genes may be considered as potential CLL risk factors. < /p > (Source: Tumor Biology)

Biomarkers of genome instability and cancer epigenetics
< h3 class= " a-plus-plus " > Abstract < /h3 > < p class= " a-plus-plus " > Tumorigenesis is a multistep process involving genetic and epigenetic alterations that drive somatic evolution from normal human cells to malignant derivatives. Collectively, genetic and epigenetic alterations might be combined into biomarkers for the assessment of risk, the detection of early stage tumors, and accurate tumor characterization before and after treatment. Recent efforts have provided systematic approaches to cancer genomics through the application of massive sequencing of specific tumor types. Here, we review biomarkers of genome ins...
