Cancer statistics, 2022

Rebecca L. Siegel et al.

Summary: Each year, the American Cancer Society compiles data on cancer occurrence and outcomes in the United States. The latest data shows that breast and prostate cancer progress has stagnated, while lung cancer has shown improvements in survival rates. Lung cancer incidence for advanced disease has declined while localized-stage rates have increased, resulting in higher survival rates. Mortality patterns align with incidence trends, with lung cancer deaths declining rapidly, breast cancer deaths slowing, and prostate cancer deaths stabilizing.

Synonymous mutations in representative yeast genes are mostly strongly non-neutral

Xukang Shen et al.

Summary: Synonymous mutations in protein-coding genes are not neutral and often result in reduced fitness and disturbed mRNA expression levels. Non-synonymous mutations have greater fitness variations across environments, which may explain the lower substitution rates compared to synonymous mutations.

The sequences of 150,119 genomes in the UK Biobank

Bjarni Halldorsson et al.

Summary: A comprehensive understanding of how diversity in the human genome sequence affects phenotypic diversity relies on a reliable characterization of both sequences and phenotypic variation. In this study, whole-genome sequencing of 150,119 individuals from the UK Biobank was performed, leading to insights into the relationship between sequence variation and phenotypic traits. The analysis revealed rare variants with large effects, which were not previously identified through whole-exome sequencing and/or imputation studies.

Mutations matter even if proteins stay the same

Nathaniel Sharp

Summary: Systematic editing of yeast genes to produce mutations reveals that the fitness of yeast is similarly affected by the mutations, regardless of whether the protein sequences encoded by the mutated genes change.

Cross-ancestry genome-wide meta-analysis of 61,047 cases and 947,237 controls identifies new susceptibility loci contributing to lung cancer

Jinyoung Byun et al.

Summary: A genome-wide association meta-analysis of lung cancer among different populations reveals five new susceptibility loci and identifies population-specific effects of common and rare variants. The study also highlights the potential role of genes such as IRF4 and FUBP1 in promoting DNA damage in lung fibroblasts.

Extent to which array genotyping and imputation with large reference panels approximate deep whole-genome sequencing

Sarah C. Hanks et al.

Summary: Understanding the genetic basis of human diseases and traits relies on accurate genotype identification and imputation. This study demonstrates that array genotyping followed by imputation can approximate whole-genome sequencing to a certain extent, with varying results in different populations and genomic regions.

Global cancer statistics 2020: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries

Hyuna Sung et al.

Summary: The global cancer burden in 2020 saw an estimated 19.3 million new cancer cases and almost 10.0 million cancer deaths. Female breast cancer surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, while lung cancer remained the leading cause of cancer death. These trends are expected to rise in 2040, with transitioning countries experiencing a larger increase compared to transitioned countries due to demographic changes and risk factors associated with globalization and a growing economy. Efforts to improve cancer prevention measures and provision of cancer care in transitioning countries will be crucial for global cancer control.

Exome sequencing and analysis of 454,787 UK Biobank participants

Joshua D. Backman et al.

Summary: In this study, whole-exome sequencing was used to identify gene-trait associations in 454,787 individuals, revealing 564 distinct genes with significant trait associations. Rare variant associations were enriched in loci from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) but most were independent of common variant signals.

Sequencing of 53,831 diverse genomes from the NHLBI TOPMed Program

Daniel Taliun et al.

Summary: The TOPMed program aims to study the genetic architecture and biology of heart, lung, blood, and sleep disorders to improve diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of these diseases. Resources include a variant browser, genotype imputation server, and genomic and phenotypic data available through dbGaP. The study detected a large number of rare genetic variants, providing insights into mutation processes and recent human evolutionary history.

Rare deleterious germline variants and risk of lung cancer

Yanhong Liu et al.

Summary: Recent studies indicate that rare variants could have a significant impact on the etiology of lung cancers. Through comprehensive sequencing, rare deleterious variants associated with lung cancer susceptibility were identified, including both known and novel susceptibility genes. Further mechanistic studies are needed to evaluate the pathogenic effects of these specific alleles.

Rare variant contribution to human disease in 281,104 UK Biobank exomes

Quanli Wang et al.

Summary: The study reveals a significant contribution of rare variants to common disease, with a large number of gene-phenotype associations detected through gene-based collapsing analysis that cannot be identified in single-variant association tests. Rare variants are also significantly enriched for loss-of-function-mediated traits and approved drug targets.

Alison R. Barton et al.

Summary: This study leveraged haplotype sharing in the UK Biobank to impute exome-wide variants and identified significant associations involving rare protein-altering variants. The research revealed significant associations in multiple genes and proposed allelic series containing multiple "likely-causal" variants.

RTEL1 influences the abundance and localization of TERRA RNA

Fiorella Ghisays et al.

Summary: Telomere repeat containing RNAs (TERRAs) are a family of long non-coding RNAs transcribed from the subtelomeric regions of eukaryotic chromosomes. The helicase RTEL1 influences the abundance and localization of TERRA in human cells, with its preferred binding to G-quadruplex structures in TERRA. The regulation of TERRA by RTEL1 is crucial for cell viability and its loss may contribute to disease phenotypes in patients with RTEL1 mutations.
