Targeted DNA Sequencing Reveals Distinct Rare-Variant Profiles in Pulmonary Hypertension Associated with Chronic Lung Diseases

The mechanisms underlying the development and severity of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) remain poorly understood. To investigate the contribution of genetic factors, we performed targeted sequencing...

MicroRNAs and Other Small RNAs in Liquid Biopsies as Biomarkers for Early Detection of Colorectal Cancer

Early detection of colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major determinant of patient prognosis, as survival strongly depends on disease stage at diagnosis. Despite advances in screening programs, a significant proportion of CRC cases are still diagnosed at advanced stages, underscoring t...
