Targeted therapies have revolutionized the treatment and improved the outcome for oncogene-driven NSCLC and an increasing number of oncogenic driver therapies have become available. For MET-dysregulated NSCLC (especially MET exon 14 skipping mutations and MET-amplifications, which is one of the most common bypass mechanisms of resistance in oncogene-addicted NSCLC), several anti-MET-targeted therapies have been approved recently (MET exon 14 skipping mutation) and multiple others are in development. In this narrative review, we summarize the role of MET as an oncogenic driver in NSCLC, discuss the different testing methods for exon 14 skipping mutations, gene amplification, and protein overexpression, and review the existing data and ongoing clinical trials regarding targeted therapies in MET-altered NSCLC. As immunotherapy with or without chemotherapy has become the standard of care for advanced NSCLC, immunotherapy data for MET-dysregulated NSCLC are put into perspective. Finally, we discuss future challenges in this rapidly evolving landscape.

Background: Stickler syndrome (STL) is a group of related connective tissue disorders characterized by heterogeneous clinical presentations with varying degrees of orofacial, ocular, skeletal, and auditory abnormalities. However, this condition is difficult to diagnose on the basis of clinical features because of phenotypic variability. Thus, expanding the variant spectrum of this disease will aid in achieving a firm definitive diagnosis of STL.

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is an inherited neuromuscular disorder characterized by muscle weakness, atrophy and myotonia, with multi-system involvement. Recent studies have highlighted the pathological heterogeneity within the CNS of DM1 patients, particularly significant changes in spinal transcriptome expression and alternative splicing. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive transcriptome analysis of the spinal cord in the muscle-specific DM1 mouse model and their wild-type controls across different life stages: young, adult and old age.

Progranulin-deficient frontotemporal dementia (GRN-FTD) is a major cause of familial FTD with TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) pathology, which is linked to exon dysregulation. However, little is known about this dysregulation in glial and neuronal cells. Here, using splice-junction-covering enrichment probes, we introduce single-nuclei long-read RNA sequencing 2 (SnISOr-Seq2), targeting 3,630 high-interest genes without loss of precision, and complete the first single-cell, long-read-resolved case-control study for neurodegeneration.

Chromosomal fissions and fusions are common, yet the molecular mechanisms and implications in speciation remain poorly understood. Here, we confirm a fission event in one zokor species through multiple-omics and functional analyses. We traced this event to a mutation in a splicing enhancer of the DNA repair gene in the fission-bearing species, which caused exon skipping and produced a truncated protein that disrupted DNA repair.
