Simultaneous PCR detection of Paenibacillus larvae targeting insertion sequence IS256 and Melissococcus plutonius targeting pMP1 plasmid from hive specimens
(2024)Paenibacillus larvae and Melissococcus plutonius represent the most threatening bacterial diseases of honeybee (Apis mellifera)-American and European foulbrood, respectively. For efficient control of those diseases, rapid ... -
Targeted DNA sequencing of high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma reveals association of TP53 mutations with platinum resistance when combined with gene expression
(2024)High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSC) is the most common subtype of ovarian cancer and is among the most fatal gynecological malignancies worldwide, due to late diagnosis at advanced stages and frequent therapy ... -
A recurrent synonymous L1CAM variant in a fetus with hydrocephalus
(2024)We report the case of a hydrocephalic fetus in which clinical exome sequencing revealed a recurrent synonymous variant of unknown significance, c.453G>T, in the L1CAM gene. This report presents the second case of X-linked ... -
Large-Scale Development of Antibacterial Scaffolds: Gentamicin Sulfate-Loaded Biodegradable Nanofibers for Gastrointestinal Applications
(2023)The ever-increasing demands of modern medicine drive the development of novel drug delivery materials. In particular, nanofibers are promising for such materials due to their favorable properties. However, most development ... -
Evaluation of human papillomavirus DNA in colorectal cancer and adjacent mucosal tissue samples
(2023)Background: Although the role of viral agents, such as human papillomavirus (e.g. HPV16, HPV18) in colorectal cancer (CRC) has been previously investigated, results remain inconclusive. Methods: To further evaluate the ... -
Targeted long-read sequencing identified a causal structural variant in X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus
(2024)Background: X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is a rare genetic renal disease caused by pathogenic variants in the AVPR2 gene. Single nucleotide variants and small insertions/deletions in AVPR2 are reliably ... -
Analysis of bacterial lipopolysaccharides ("serotyping") by MALDI-TOF mass spectometry: mission impossible?
(2023)In the last decade, the use of Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time Time-of-Flight mass spectrometry ( MALDI-TOF MS) revolutionary changed clinical microbiology. The technology allowed significant shortening ... -
Molecular pathology in diagnosis and prognostication of head and neck tumors
(2024)Classification of head and neck tumors has evolved in recent decades including a widespread application of molecular testing in tumors of the salivary glands, sinonasal tract, oropharynx, nasopharynx, and soft tissue. ... -
ABCB1 Amplicon Contains Cyclic AMP Response Element-Driven TRIP6 Gene in Taxane-Resistant MCF-7 Breast Cancer Sublines
(2023)A limited number of studies are devoted to regulating TRIP6 expression in cancer. Hence, we aimed to unveil the regulation of TRIP6 expression in MCF-7 breast cancer cells (with high TRIP6 expression) and taxane-resistant ... -
Nonprocedural bleeding after left atrial appendage closure versus direct oral anticoagulants: A subanalysis of the randomized PRAGUE-17 trial
(2023)INTRODUCTION: Observational studies have shown low bleeding rates in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) treated by left atrial appendage closure (LAAC); however, data from randomized studies are lacking. This study ... -
Trends in outcomes of women with myocardial infarction undergoing primary angioplasty - Analysis of randomized trials
(2023)Background: Sex- and gender-associated differences determine the disease response to treatment.Aim: The study aimed to explore the hypothesis that progress in the management of STE-myocardial infarction (STEMI) overcomes ... -
Autoimmune diseases as comorbidities for liver, gallbladder, and biliary duct cancers in Sweden
(2023)BackgroundAutoimmune diseases are associated with many cancers but there is a lack of population-based studies with different autoimmune diseases that have a long follow-up. This is also true of hepatobiliary cancers, which ... -
Faecal bacteriome and metabolome profiles associated with decreased mucosal inflammatory activity upon anti-TNF therapy in paediatric Crohn's disease
(2024)BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Treatment by anti-TNFα antibodies (anti-TNF) changes the dysbiotic faecal bacteriome in Crohn's disease (CD). However, it is not known whether these changes are due to decreasing mucosal inflammatory ... -
Population-Attributable Fractions of Personal Comorbidities for Liver, Gallbladder, and Bile Duct Cancers
(2023)Simple Summary Liver cancer is often used as a general term for cancers of the liver (hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC), the gallbladder, and the bile ducts. The well-known risk factors are alcohol and viral hepatitis, but ... -
Association of lncRNA and transcriptome intersections with response to targeted therapy in metastatic renal cell carcinoma
(2023)Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) serve an important role in cancer progression and may be used as efficient molecular biomarkers. The present study aimed to identify lncRNAs associated with the response to the receptor ... -
miRNA and lncRNA as Potential Tissue Biomarkers in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
(2024)Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is primary liver cancer, frequently diagnosed at advanced stages with limited therapeutic options. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate target gene expression and through inhibitory competitive binding ... -
Serious Immune-related Adverse Events Are Associated With Greater Efficacy of Nivolumab Therapy Against Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
(2023)BACKGROUND/AIM: The aim of this study was to investigate possible association between adverse events of nivolumab therapy and the effectiveness of treatment in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Focusing on ... -
Branchioma with a nested/organoid morphology: molecular profiling of a distinctive potentially misleading variant and reappraisal of potential relationship to CD34-positive/Rb1-deficient tumors of the neck
