My note on paper: Germline mutations in oncogene-induced senescence pathways are associated with multiple sessile serrated adenomas
Paper: Germline mutations in oncogene-induced senescence pathways are associated with multiple sessile serrated adenomas (doi:10.1053/j.gastro.2013.10.045) colon polyps (sessile or traditional serrated adenomas) ------------------------ Research gap: genetic factor that facilitating the colon polyps. Evident: SSA - contain BRAF or KRAS mutation early in development - mutation causes oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) of the intestinal crypt cell - escape from OIS facilitates the development of serrated neoplasia by inactivating of tumor suppressor Aim: Investigate subject having SSA contains germline loss of function mutation (nonsense and splice site) in gene regulate the OIS (p16-Rb and ATM-ATR) -- cause the transition from OIS to SSA Method: 1.Bioinformatics reveal set of gene function in the main node of p16-Rb and ATM-ATR dna damage response pw 2.Whole-exosome sequencing on multiple SSA (compare SSA (20 cases) vs control group with same ethnicity) 3.Integrative
