A comprehensive elucidation of the mechanisms driving AAA initiation, progression, and rupture is critical for developing novel therapeutic interventions. Emerging research has highlighted the central role of inflammatory processes in AAA pathophysiology, including dysregulated extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, chronic vascular inflammation, immune cell infiltration, and vascular smooth musc

Small molecule APOL1 inhibitors as a precision medicine approach for APOL1-mediated kidney disease.

Chronic kidney disease affects ~10% of people worldwide and there are no disease modifying therapeutics that address the underlying cause of any form of kidney disease. Genome wide association studies have identified the G1 and G2 variants in the apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) gene as major contributors to a subtype of proteinuric kidney disease now referred to as APOL1-mediated kidney disease (AMKD). We hypothesized that inhibition of APOL1 could have therapeutic potential for this genetically-defined form of kidney disease. Here we describe the development of preclinical assays and the discovery

Deciphering the mechanisms of PARP inhibitor resistance in prostate cancer: Implications for precision medicine.

Prostate cancer is a leading malignancy among men. While early-stage prostate cancer can be effectively managed, metastatic prostate cancer remains incurable, with a median survival of 3-5 years.

The advent of precision medicine has introduced promising new treatments, including PARP inhibitors (PARPi), which target defects in DNA repair mechanisms in cancer cells. PARPi have sh…

Nephrogenomics, precision medicine and the role of genetic testing in adult kidney disease management.

Genetic investigations in nephrology have long been viewed as the prerogative of paediatricians or restricted to archetypal genetic nephropathies with highly penetrant variants affecting young adults. However, genetic testing has emerged as a pivotal tool in the field of adult nephrology, with the ability to revolutionize the understanding and management of adult kidney diseases. Here, we explore the multifaceted role of genomic testing (such as exome or genome sequencing) in chronic kidney disease, shedding light on current genetic findings for reframing diagnostic paradigms and tailoring tre

Renal cell carcinoma organoids for precision medicine: bridging the gap between models and patients.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) poses significant challenges to precision oncology due to its pronounced molecular heterogeneity and complex tumor microenvironment (TME). Traditional two-dimensional (2D) cultures and animal models fall short in capturing patient-specific tumor biology, limiting their translational relevance. In contrast, three-dimensional (3D) organoid platforms offer structurally and functionally representative models that retain key pathological and pharmacological features of RCC. Notably, RCC organoids enable pharmacokinetic assessment, including drug penetration, metabolic act

Precision medicine in primary care: How GPs envision "old" and "new" forms of personalization.

Visions of precision or personalized medicine (PM) are gaining currency around the globe. While the potential of PM in specialist medicine has been in focus, primary care is also considered to be a fruitful area for the application of PM. "Low-tech" forms of personalization and attention to individual patients are already central features of primary care practice, and primary care thus constitutes an area in which "old" and "new" forms of personalization (may) come together. Against this backdrop, we explore general practitioners' (GPs) views on PM and how they envision the future of personali

Precision medicine approaches in obstructive sleep apnoea: The role of dentist-sleep physician partnerships.

Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) is a common heterogenous sleep disorder that is associated with a wide range of comorbidities and consequences, including the development of neurocognitive and cardiometabolic disorders. The heterogeneity of OSA necessitates a precision medicine approach to accurately diagnose this condition and to effectively manage patients. One of the primary models of precision medicine is described by the P4 approach of predicting those who are susceptible to disease, preventing the occurrence of disease, personalizing treatment, and encouraging patients to participate in th…

Precision medicine in peripartum cardiomyopathy: advancing diagnosis and management through genomic and phenotypic integration.

Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a rare and life-threatening cardiac condition characterized by heart failure due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction, often developing in late pregnancy or the early postpartum period. Despite being a leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality, clinical presentation of PPCM frequently overlaps with normal pregnancy-related physiological changes, causing diagnostic delays and increased complications. Current management strategies, primarily derived from general heart failure protocols, are evolving to address the unique aspects of PPCM. This inclu

Precision medicine in Myocardial Infarction With Non-obstructive Coronary Disease (MINOCA): A comprehensive review.

Cardiovascular diseases, particularly myocardial infarction (MI), are a significant cause of mortality globally. Traditional MIs are commonly linked to substantial coronary artery blockage. However, a distinct subset of patients experience MI with non-obstructive coronary arteries, known as MINOCA. Imaging techniques, such as invasive coronary angiograms, are employed to diagnose MI or assess predisposition to one. Coronary angiograms help visualize vessel blockages; however, these blockages are absent in MINOCA cases, posing a diagnostic challenge. Precision medicine aims to introduce new dia…

Towards precision medicine for anxiety disorders: objective assessment, risk prediction, pharmacogenomics, and repurposed drugs.

Anxiety disorders are increasingly prevalent, affect people's ability to do things, and decrease quality of life. Due to lack of objective tests, they are underdiagnosed and sub-optimally treated, resulting in adverse life events and/or addictions. We endeavored to discover blood biomarkers for anxiety, using a four-step approach. First, we used a longitudinal within-subject design in individuals with psychiatric disorders to discover blood gene expression changes between self-reported low anxiety and high anxiety states. Second, we prioritized the list of candidate biomarkers with a Convergen

Early diagnosis enabling precision medicine treatment in a young boy with PIK3R1-related overgrowth.

Mosaic PIK3R1 variants have recently been demonstrated in patients with complex vascular malformations and overgrowth in a syndrome resembling PIK3CA-related overgrowth syndrome (PROS). The PIK3CA-inhibitor, alpelisib, seems to be a promising treatment option for PROS patients. We describe a young boy with overgrowth and a pathogenic mosaic variant in PIK3R1; c.1699A > G, p.(Lys567Glu). He was prenatally suspected of a syndrome on the presence of unusual transient fluctuating subcutaneous edemas and lymphedema of his left shoulder. The pathogenic variant, later found to be causative, was below
