Pediatric liver tumors are very rare tumors with the most common diagnosis being hepatoblastoma. While hepatoblastomas are predominantly sporadic, around 15% of cases develop as part of predisposition syndromes such as Beckwith-Wiedemann (11p15.5 locus altered). Here, we identify mosaic genetic alterations of 11p15.5 locus in the liver of hepatoblastoma patients without a clinical diagnosis of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. We do not retrieve these alterations in children with other types of pediatric liver tumors. We show that mosaic 11p15.5 alterations in liver FFPE sections of hepatoblastoma patients display IGF2 overexpression and H19 downregulation together with an alteration of the liver zonation. Moreover, mosaic livers' microenvironment is enriched in extracellular matrix and angiogenesis. Spatial transcriptomics and single-nucleus RNAseq analyses identify a 60-gene signature in 11p15.5 altered hepatocytes. These data provide insights for 11p15.5 mosaicism detection and its functional consequences during the early steps of carcinogenesis.

A software package to analyze next-generation resequencing data. The toolkit offers a wide variety of tools, with a primary focus on variant discovery and genotyping as well as strong emphasis on data quality assurance. Its robust architecture, powerful processing engine and high-performance computing features make it capable of taking on projects of any size. This software library makes writing efficient analysis tools using next-generation sequencing data very easy, and second it's a suite of tools for working with human medical resequencing projects such as 1000 Genomes and The Cancer Genome Atlas. These tools include things like a depth of coverage analyzers, a quality score recalibrator, a SNP/indel caller and a local realigner. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)
View all literature mentionsTHIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on February 28,2023. Software Python package that provides infrastructure to process data from high-throughput sequencing assays. While the main purpose of HTSeq is to allow you to write your own analysis scripts, customized to your needs, there are also a couple of stand-alone scripts for common tasks that can be used without any Python knowledge.
View all literature mentionsToppGene Suite is a one-stop portal for gene list enrichment analysis and candidate gene prioritization based on functional annotations and protein interactions network. ToppGene Suite is a one-stop portal for (i) gene list functional enrichment, (ii) candidate gene prioritization using either functional annotations or network analysis and (iii) identification and prioritization of novel disease candidate genes in the interactome. Functional annotation-based disease candidate gene prioritization uses a fuzzy-based similarity measure to compute the similarity between any two genes based on semantic annotations. The similarity scores from individual features are combined into an overall score using statistical meta-analysis.
