Brain malignancies can either originate from within the CNS (gliomas) or invade from other locations in the body (metastases). A highly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) influen...
Genomic imbalances or copy number variations (CNVs) are a major cause of pregnancy losses, fetal anomalies identified during prenatal period, congenital defects in newborn, dysmorphology and...
Genetic diseases are known occur due to various types of mutations in the human genome. The molecular assays to diagnose these diseases have been developed based on the type of mutation comm...
Most bladder cancer (BC) cases are non-muscle-invasive BC (NIBMC), which is rarely lethal. However, nearly one-fifth of NMIBC cases progress to muscle-invasive BC (MIBC), which shows a 5-yea...
NGS technology has grown leaps and bounds in reproductive genetics field. Infertility is on the rise and with the mushrooming of so many IVF clinics in our country and increasing number of I...
Background: Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) and structural rearrangement (PGT-SR) have been widely used within indications of previous miscarriages, repeated implantat...
Genetic carrier screening is a method to help couples discover whether they are at risk of passing on serious genetic disorders to their children. When carried out before conception or early...
