GERMLINE VARIANTS IN ETV6 UNDERLIE REDUCED PLATELET FORMATION, PLATELET DYSFUNCTION AND INCREASED LEVELS OF CIRCULATING CD34+ PROGENITORS

Germline variants in ETV6 underlie reduced platelet formation, platelet dysfunction and increased levels of circulating CD34+ progenitors

Variants in ETV6, which encodes a transcription repressor of the E26 transformation-specific family, have recently been reported to be responsible for inherited thrombocytopenia and hematologic malignancy.We sequenced the DNA from cases with unexplained dominant thrombocytopenia and identified six likely pathogenic variants in ETV6, of which five a

m5C RNA Methylation Regulators Predict Prognosis and Regulate the Immune Microenvironment in Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma

RNA methylation is a novel epigenetic modification that can be used to evaluate tumor prognosis.However, the underlying mechanisms are unclear.This study aimed to investigate the genetic characteristics of 5-methylcytosine (m5C) and N1-methyladenosine (m1A) regulators in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) and the prognostic value and immune-relate

A Different Approach for Sensing Disruption

Spectrum sensing vulnerabilities in cognitive radio networks can significantly degrade performance.Most disruption attacks in the current literature involve spoofing of the free bands used for sensing by making them appear busy.In this study, we proposed a different approach for sensing disruptions.We examined the optimal strategy for an intelligen
