A Non-Invasive Urine Test for Prediction of Kidney Transplant Failure
A non-invasive test that predicts potential kidney transplant failure combines the CRISPR gene editing tool with a lateral-flow visual readout procedure to analyse urine samples from transplantation recipients. More...21 Apr 2020
Real-Time Assay Evaluated for Two Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae are the two most commonly reported sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the USA and the numbers of cases are increasing. C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae infections in the rectum and pharynx are important extragenital reservoirs of infection. More...21 Apr 2020
RT-LAMP Assay Developed for SARS-CoV-2
SARS-CoV-2 is the causative viral pathogen of COVID-19, and diagnosis of COVID-19 can be done through CT scan of suspicious patients and a confirmatory laboratory test is performed using published real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) methods. More...20 Apr 2020
Genetic Risk Score Predicts Prostate Cancer Drug Response
Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer is when the cancer has spread to parts of the body other than the prostate, and it is able to grow and spread even though drugs or other treatments to lower the amount of male sex hormones are being used to manage the cancer. More...20 Apr 2020
Novel Inherited Mutation Predisposes Children to Medulloblastoma
Cancer genomics has revealed many genes and core molecular processes that contribute to human malignancies, but the genetic and molecular bases of many rare cancers remains unclear. Genetic predisposition accounts for 5% to 10% of cancer diagnoses in children. More...16 Apr 2020
SARS-CoV-2 Found in Sputum/Feces After Negative Pharyngeal Specimens
The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a global public health problem. In the absence of a specific therapy or vaccine, timely diagnosis and the establishment of a sufficient isolation period for infected individuals are critical to containment efforts. More...14 Apr 2020
Susceptibility Gene Identified for Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) is a lung disorder characterized by high blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries. In this instance, “idiopathic” means that the cause of the pulmonary artery hypertension is unknown. More...14 Apr 2020
