Abstract:
We have previously reported Hi-Plex, a multiplex PCR methodology for building targeted DNA sequencing libraries that offers a low-cost protocol compatible with high-throughput processing. Here, we detail an improved protocol, Hi-Plex2, that more effectively enables the robust construction of small-to-medium panel-size libraries while maintaining low cost, simplicity and accuracy benefits of the Hi-Plex platform. Hi-Plex2 was applied to three panels, comprising 291, 740 and 1193 amplicons, targeting genes associated with risk for breast and/or colon cancer. We show substantial reduction of off-

Abstract:
Objective: Natalizumab, a highly effective treatment for multiple sclerosis (MS) and Crohn’s disease, is associated with progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Upon suspicion or diagnosis of PML, plasma exchange (PLEX) is performed to remove natalizumab from the circulation, allowing immune reconstitution of the central nervous system. Since PLEX may also remove other circulating antibodies, we examined the effects of PLEX on serum immunoglobulin (IgG) and anti–JC virus (JCV) antibody levels in MS patients with and without PML.

Abstract:
Background: Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) has myriad causes with only subtle differences at presentation. Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura is one of the etiologies, and traditional teaching is that initiation of treatment with plasmapheresis (PLEX) is time sensitive allowing mitigation of the otherwise high morbidity and mortality of this condition. If TTP is suspected, PLEX is frequently initiated prior to availability of confirmatory lab tests. In contradiction to this, a recent publication by Liu et al (Blood 2017) found that early initiation of PLEX was not associated with improved i

Background: Plex-B1, the receptor of Sema4D, has been implicated in tumour growth, angiogenesis and metastasis.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) L1 virus-like particles (VLPs) were proven an effective vaccine candidate to prevent against HPV-16 and -18 infections. In order to evaluate the potency of our produced HPV-16 and -18 L1 VLPs-based vaccine candidates, also to quantify neutralizing antibodies induced by them, a 2-plex Luminex-based competitive immunoassay was developed. Unlike the published paper, the no-biotin conjugated neutralizing mAbs spiked normal human serum (NHS) was used for standard curve preparation, while phycoerythrin (PE) was not labeled directly to neutralizing mAbs for signaling.

Abstract Introduction: Rituximab at standard dosing (375 mg/m2 weekly for 4 weeks) is effective in preventing thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) relapse and is recommended as a therapy of choice along with plasmapheresis (PLEX) in the UK expert-based guidelines on TTP (category IB), although it is not yet universally viewed as standard of care. There is also emerging data for low dose rituximab (100 mg weekly for 4 weeks) in the treatment of relapsing TTP with mixed data on efficacy as compared to standard dose rituximab. With this in mind, we conducted a retrospective chart review to e

As one of the most endangered species, tiger (Panthera tigris) inbreeding has become an urgent issue to address. Using a microsatellite (short tandem repeat, STR) identification system, paternity testing may be helpful to avoid inbreeding in captive breeding programs. In this study, we developed a genome-based identification system named tiger pedigree identification multiplex system (TPI-plex). By analyzing the entire tiger genome, 139,967 STR loci were identified and 12.76% of these displayed three to six alleles among three re-sequenced individual tiger genomes.

Abstract BACKGROUND Infiltrating ductal carcinoma (IDCA) is the most common form of invasive breast cancer. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is widely used to analyze estrogen receptor 1 (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) that can help classify the tumor to guide the medical treatment. IHC examinations require experienced pathologists to provide interpretations that are subjective, thereby lowering the reproducibility of IHC-based diagnosis.
