Removal of blood components from cervical smears: Implications for cancer diagnosis using FTIR spectroscopy [PDF]

Biopolymers, 2002
AbstractRed and white cell lysis buffers were investigated to determine their ability to remove blood components from cervical smears prior to IR microspectroscopy. A white cell lysis buffer was effective in increasing the spectral reproducibility and sample homogeneity and in reducing the presence of inflammatory exudate, particularly leukocytes, from

Association between amylin and amyloid-β peptides in plasma in the context of apolipoprotein E4 allele. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Amylin, a pancreatic peptide that readily crosses the blood brain barrier (BBB), and amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ), the main component of amyloid plaques and a major component of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology in the brain, share several features.

Peculiarities of the formation and subsequent removal of the circulating immune complexes from the bloodstream during the process of digestion [version 1; referees: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

F1000Research, 2018
Background: Large protein aggregates, known as circulating immune complexes (CICs), are formed in biological fluids as a result of the development of the body's immune response to various provoking factors.

Preclinical transmission of prions by blood transfusion is influenced by donor genotype and route of infection.

PLoS Pathogens, 2021
Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) is a human prion disease resulting from zoonotic transmission of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE). Documented cases of vCJD transmission by blood transfusion necessitate on-going risk reduction measures to ...

Leukodepleted blood components do not remove the potential for long-term transfusion-associated microchimerism in Australian major trauma patients [PDF]

Chimerism, 2014
Despite the introduction of leukodepleted blood components, it has been shown that donor leukocyte engraftment (microchimerism) remains a long-term consequence of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion. The incidence of microchimerism may be affected by international disparities in blood processing methods or variations in transfusion practices.

Axial variation of deoxyhemoglobin density as a source of the low-frequency time lag structure in blood oxygenation level-dependent signals.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Perfusion-related information is reportedly embedded in the low-frequency component of a blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) signal. The blood-propagation pattern through the cerebral vascular tree is detected

All clinically-relevant blood components transmit prion disease following a single blood transfusion: a sheep model of vCJD [PDF]

, 2011
Variant CJD (vCJD) is an incurable, infectious human disease, likely arising from the consumption of BSE-contaminated meat products. Whilst the epidemic appears to be waning, there is much concern that vCJD infection may be perpetuated in humans by the ...
