Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the commonest endocrinopathy, Worldwide. Amongst the protean complex genetic variations, cubulin gene and megalin gene mutations in diabetes are important in dictating genotype-phenotypic correlations and natural clinical course of diabetes. The genetic studies in this area are especially very sparse from Indian sub-continent. In this context, we analyzed the prevalence of cubulin (CBN) and megalin (LRP2) gene mutations, as part of NGS (Ne...

Background: Follicular differentiated thyroid cancer (FDTC) is the most common endocrine cancer, globally. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) in thyroid cancer allows for high-throughput genetic sequencing in short time. This analysis offers useful information on tumor biology. NGS Studies on follicular differentiated thyroid cancer are scanty from South East Asia. In this context, we set out study the pattern of a genetic panel wide somatic mutations in thyroid cancer.<p cl...

Background: Follicular differentiated thyroid cancer (FDTC) is the most common endocrine cancer, globally. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) in thyroid cancer allows for high-throughput genetic sequencing with quick turnover. NGS Studies on papillary thyroid cancer are scanty from South East Asia. In this context, we conducted this study of a genetic panel wide somatic mutations in thyroid cancer.Methods: We selected 21 FDTC cases. All of them underwent t...
