A Synopsis of Serum Biomarkers in Cutaneous Melanoma Patients by Pierre Vereecken, Frank Cornelis, Nicolas Van Baren, Valérie Vandersleyen, Jean-François Baurain

“…However, the poor sensitivity and specificity of those markers and many other molecules are serious limitations for their routine use in both early (AJCC stage I and II) and advanced stages of melanoma (AJCC stage III and IV). Microarray technology and proteomic research will surely provide new candidates in the near future allowing more accurate definition of the individual prognosis and prediction of the therapeutic outcome and select patients for early adjuvant strategies.…”

R-locus for roaned coat is associated with a tandem duplication in an intronic region of USH2A in dogs and also contributes to Dalmatian spotting. by Takeshi Kawakami, Meghan K Jensen, Andrea Slavney, Petra E Deane, Ausra Milano, Vandana Raghavan, Brett Ford, Erin T Chu, Aaron J Sams, Adam R Boyko

“…The tandem duplication is in an intronic region of usherin gene (USH2A), which was perfectly associated with roaning but absent in non-roaned dogs. We detected strong selection signals in this region characterized by reduced nucleotide diversity (π), increased runs of homozygosity, and extended haplotype homozygosity in Wirehaired Pointing Griffons and Australian Cattle Dogs (typically roaned breeds), as well as elevated genetic difference (FST) between Wirehaired Pointing Griffon (roaned) and Labrador Retriever (non-roaned). …”
