Journal ArticleDOI
Highly upregulated in liver cancer noncoding RNA is overexpressed in hepatic colorectal metastasis.
TL;DR: It is shown for the first time those colorectal carcinomas that metastasize to the livers but not to lymph nodes experience an upregulation of HULC ncRNA in all the samples tested, with a strong-to-moderate expression in six out of eight.
Journal ArticleDOI
Copro-diagnosis of echinococcus granulosus infection in dogs by amplification of a newly identified repeated dna sequence
Ibrahim Abbasi,Anna Branzburg,Maiza Campos-Ponce,Sami K Abdel Hafez,Francis Raoul,Philip S. Craig,Joseph Hamburger +6 more
TL;DR: A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was developed, that amplified a target repeated sequence newly identified in the genome of the common sheep strain of E. granulosus and was demonstrated to be 100% specific and also detected all necropsy-positive E.granulosUS-infected dogs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymerase chain reaction assay based on a highly repeated sequence of Schistosoma haematobium: a potential tool for monitoring schistosome-infested water.
TL;DR: Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers were designed on the basis of the DraI sequence information and were used in a PCR assay by which as little as 10 fg of schistosomal DNA as well as individual cercariae were detected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma haematobium DNA by loop-mediated isothermal amplification: identification of infected snails from early prepatency
TL;DR: Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assays for identifying Schistosoma mansoni and S. haematobium to facilitate large-scale evaluation of post-intervention transmission potential are developed and it was possible to identify infection from the first day after exposure to miracidia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of blood meals imbibed by phlebotomine sand flies using cytochrome b PCR and reverse line blotting.
TL;DR: A vertebrate-specific PCR is combined with reverse line blot analysis for identifying blood meals ingested by female phlebotomine sand fly vectors of leishmaniasis, and the source of blood was identified in 68 of 89 wild-caught sand flies tested.
