Identification of diagnostic markers for tuberculosis by proteomic fingerprinting of serum

TL;DR: The potential biomarkers for tuberculosis that are identified through proteomic fingerprinting and pattern recognition have a plausible biological connection with the disease and could be used to develop new diagnostic tests.
Journal Article

Identification of diagnostic markers for tuberculosis by proteomic fingerprinting of serum. Commentary

TL;DR: In this paper, a supervised machine-learning approach based on the support vector machine (SVM) was used to obtain a classifier that distinguished between the groups in two independent test sets.
Journal ArticleDOI

A High Frequency African Coding Polymorphism in the N-Terminal Domain of ICAM-1 Predisposing to Cerebral Malaria in Kenya

TL;DR: Genotypes at this locus from samples from a case-control study indicated an association of the polymorphism with the severity of clinical malaria such that individuals homozygous for the mutation have increased susceptibility to cerebral malaria with a relative risk of two.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytoadherence, pathogenesis and the infected red cell surface in Plasmodium falciparum.

TL;DR: The data on the molecular basis of interactions on both the host and parasite surfaces are summarized, the evidence for the involvement of particular receptors in specific disease syndromes is reviewed and the relevance of these data to the development of new treatments for malaria is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The merozoite surface protein 6 gene codes for a 36 kDa protein associated with the Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface protein-1 complex.

TL;DR: A complex of non-covalently bound polypeptides is located on the surface of the merozoite form of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum and the gene identified codes for MSP-6(36) has been determined, the corresponding gene cloned, and the protein characterised.
