Molecular profiling with omics approaches reveals the resemblance between neuroendocrine malignancies and solitary fibrous tumors, rare soft tissue cancers with no effective treatment options.
Clinical, genetic, and model organism data collectively define PLCG1 as a disease-associated gene with diverse missense variants contributing to phenotypic heterogeneity.
The unbiased genetic screening and animal model experiments have characterized a new candidate pathogenic gene associated with high myopia, providing a potential therapeutic intervention target for controlling the disease.
