Study provides resource for investigating diabetes-linked transcription factors

Scientists have generated a comprehensive map of the gene targets regulated by the transcription factors HNF4A and HNF1A in human pancreatic beta cells and liver cells. Published in the journal Nature Communications, the study revealed common and tissue-specific molecular pathways regulated by HNF4A and HNF1A, two proteins that possess important functions governing the development and function of the pancreas and liver.

Multi-regional sampling uncovers hidden complexity in liver cancer

A study led by clinician-scientists and scientists from the National Cancer Centre Singapore (NCCS) and A*STAR's Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS) and funded by the National Research Foundation Singapore (NRF) has discovered unexpected molecular heterogeneity even within the same liver tumors. More than 40% of HCC harbors more than one molecular subtype within the same tumor and in these, the clinical outcomes for the patients are best predicted by the most aggressive subtype.
