Introduction. Due to the rapidly growing incidence of tumor pathology of the thyroid gland, the range of molecular genetic research methods used to study the targets of targeted drugs, prognosis and surgical tactics is growing. Aim. To study the frequency of m…
Dysfunction of the epidermal barrier plays an important role in the development of skin inflammatory processes. Pathological changes in the intracellular composition of keratinocytes are an integral part of the modern understanding of the pathogenesis of atopi…
Introduction. Molecular genetic research methods suggest the development of certain forms of pancreatitis and its complications. Aim of the study. Identification of risk factors for the development of acute forms of pancreatitis based on molecular genetic stud…
Introduction. The origin of the genetic predisposition to family adenomatous polyposis is associated with functional disorders of the repair system. The molecular mechanism of this phenomenon is not sufficiently studied and need clarification. The aim of the s…
Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare, aggressive intraocular malignant tumor, leading to metastatic disease in more than 50% of patients. Cytogenetic and molecular studies have identified some genetic prognostic factors considered to be reliable to forecast the survi…
The literature review provides information on the molecular biology of low-grade malignancy gliomas (LGMG) in children and adolescents. The data on specific genetic aberrations in pilocytic astrocytoma, pleomorphic xantoastrocytoma, subependimal giant cell ast…
Introduction. Mutations in the tumor suppressor gene TP53 are observed approximately in the half of all human malignancies. In bladder cancer (BC), ТР53 molecular alterations were shown to be associated with more aggressive tumor phenotype; however their clini…
Introduction. Most cases of gastric cancer (GC) occur sporadically. Until recently, diffuse hereditary gastric cancer associated with the CDH1 gene mutations was considered the only hereditary form (about 1–3% of all tumors of the stomach). However, a signific…
Introduction. KRAS mutations play a critical role in human tumorigenesis and are the most prevalent in colorectal cancer. Because KRAS is the most frequently mutated factor downstream of the EGFR signaling pathway, it was considered to be a candidate molecular…
Introduction. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), the most common mesenchymal tumors of GI tract, are characterized by KIT and PDGFRA activating mutations that are predictive factors. KIT and PDGFRA mutations are present in 85% of GISTs and are associated…
Introduction. The prevalence of human cutaneous melanoma (CM) in the world is constantly rising. Diagnostics and treatment of CM at the early stages allows to increase the 5-year patient survival up to 90%. This problem can be solved with personalized therapy …
Lung cancer is one of the most common oncologic diseases in the world and the most frequent cause of the death from malignant neoplasms. Last decade’s studies revealed significant number of molecular events leading to the onset and development of non-small cel…
Introduction. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common genetically heterogeneous disease caused by mutations in genes encoding proteins of the cardiac sarcomere. Mutations in the genes encoding β-myosin heavy chain (MYH7) and myosin binding protein C (MYB…
Introduction.Uveal melanoma (UM) is one of the most frequent intraocular tumors. Mutations in new oncogenes GNAQ and GNA11 are found in more than 50% of UM. GNAQ gene and its homologue GNA11 are coding the alpha subunit of heterotrimeric G-protein with GTPase …
Based on literature and own data the role of genotoxic events in nosogenesis of hereditary, congenital and somatic diseases is considered. Special emphasis is paid to the analysis of significance of premutagenic DNA lesions and as well induced gene mutations i…
