2021年12月9日 · This is next-generation sequencing — the process of sequencing DNA or RNA by producing millions of sequence reads in a massively parallel manner. Also known as deep sequencing, next-generation sequencing allows for the sequencing of the entire genome of a …

2018年10月1日 · ROCHESTER, Minn. — Mayo Clinic released a new DNA product with Helix, a personal genomics company, called "Mayo Clinic GeneGuide." The DNA-powered product provides healthy individuals with genetic testing and insights with a focus on education. This product is backed by Mayo medical science and expertise. “The Mayo Clinic GeneGuide app …

2023年1月7日 · Mayo Clinic Laboratories’ newly released suite of MayoComplete hematology and oncology next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels delivers precision answers on the genetic associations of an individual’s cancer. Results from MayoComplete NGS, which evaluates for gene mutations, rearrangements, and amplifications, deepen understanding of the ...

2016年2月22日 · Treatment and prognosis of Mendelian diseases, in which a single gene is broken, such as cystic fibrosis or Huntington’s disease, have also benefited from genomics. In 1990 the medical community knew about 61 such monogenic traits. By 2013, the single gene for 4,800 such diseases had been identified. More are being identified all the time.

2024年2月28日 · Rapid genome sequencing accelerates the identification of genetic abnormalities across a patient's entire genome – all 3 billion DNA base pairs — while targeted gene panels streamline the analysis by focusing on …

2017年5月10日 · This novel chromosome test finds the “breaks” in gene rearrangements that other tests can’t. ROCHESTER, Minn. — Mayo Clinic has launched a first-of-its-kind clinical test that will be used to help patients who may be at a diagnostic “dead end” with other genetic testing. The mate-pair sequencing test can identify chromosome alterations or “breakpoints” involved […]

2023年4月11日 · "Our research also revealed that, apart from the patients with a type of gastric cancer who are typically considered for ICI treatment, some other patients with gastric cancer could potentially benefit from ICI treatment if they have low levels of ACTA2 expression," says Tae Hyun Hwang, Ph.D., a cancer researcher in the field of artificial intelligence and informatics.

2023年6月26日 · With the increased use of genomic testing such as multi-gene panels, exome sequencing and genome sequencing in the past decade, there is a greater opportunity to better diagnose and treat patients with rare diseases. According to the National Institutes of Health, as many as 10,000 distinct rare diseases exist and an estimated 25-30 million ...

2023年12月26日 · Brandon recently joined the Center's DNA sequencing research study, called Tapestry, in hopes that his biological data will be valuable to scientists and potentially help lead to the discovery of treatments that could benefit him, his 3-year-old daughter who also carries the hereditary gene mutation, and countless other families.

2022年1月1日 · Mayo Clinic is sequencing the exomes of tens of thousands of people from diverse backgrounds to investigate large-scale patterns of distinctive mutations that fuel disease. Exome sequencing analyzes almost all the 20,000 genes that provide instructions for making proteins, which play many critical roles in the body.
