Non-Invasive Prostate Cancer Test Developed Using Exosomal RNA
The current screening paradigm for prostate cancer faces challenges that lead to unnecessary biopsies and, ultimately, overtreatment. The disadvantage of Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) testing is lack of specificity for prostate cancer resulting in both false positive and false negative results. More...11 May 2016
Field-Applicable Molecular Test Diagnoses Tegumentary Leishmaniasis
Cutaneous and mucosal leishmaniases are widely distributed in Central and South America. Leishmania of the Viannia subgenus are the most frequent species infecting humans. L. (V.) braziliensis, L. (V.) panamensis are also responsible for metastatic mucosal leishmaniasis. More...11 May 2016
Bacterial Vaginosis Assessed By Molecular Methods
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is an aberrant state of the vaginal microbiota, which is characterized by a depletion of lactobacilli, an increased diversity of the bacterial population and an elevated pH. It is one the most common vaginal syndromes in fertile, premenopausal and pregnant women. More...11 May 2016
Novel Multiplexed Digital Immunohistochemistry Used On Tissue Sections
Intratumoral heterogeneity has emerged as a critical challenge to the implementation of targeted therapeutics and immunohistochemistry (IHC) has been used to assess spatial heterogeneity of proteins; however, it has been difficult to quantify protein abundance at high multiplex and wide dynamic range. More...10 May 2016
New Strategy Broadens Detection of Breast & Ovarian Cancer Gene Variants
Using next generation sequencing (NGS) technology and information theory (IT), researchers have developed a new method for identifying mutations and prioritizing sequence variants related to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). This could not only reduce the number of possible variants to test for, but also increase the number of patients that are properly diagnosed. More...09 May 2016
