Sizing and concentration analysis of cfDNA using Biabooster technology: Results from a prospective plasma‐based collection of 77 patients with locally advanced unresectable esophageal cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? This study introduces a novel approach for detecting locally advanced esophageal carcinoma using cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) analysis through a highly sensitive fragmentome assay. Unlike traditional sequencing‐based methods that are limited by the absence of specific mutations in esophageal tumors, our method offers an alternative by quantifying ...

Accu16S/AccuITS: Accurate and broadly applicable amplicon sequencing for absolute microbiome quantification

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Traditional 16S rRNA gene and Internal Transcribed Spacer region amplicon sequencing provides only relative abundance, often leading to biased ecological interpretations. To overcome this limitation, we developed Accu16S/AccuITS, an absolute quantification method for bacterial and fungal amplicons based on synthetic internal spike‐in DNA with known ...

Decoding temporal miRNA signatures of semen under in vitro exposure for forensic time since deposition estimation using machine learning‐driven modeling

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This study develops a novel miRNA‐based framework for estimating the time since deposition of semen stains, combining small RNA sequencing with machine learning. Time‐dependent miRNA modules were identified using Mfuzz clustering and WGCNA, followed by a multi‐stage feature selection pipeline that reduced 261 candidate miRNAs to a minimal 7‐miRNA panel.

A dendrimer enhanced CRISPR/Cas12a performance for the evaluation of acidogenic capacity in cariogenic bacteria

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
A CRISPR/Cas12a‐powered dendritic DNA nanostructure is assembled to create confined enzymatic microdomains, enabling ultrasensitive detection. Integrated into a paper‐based origami biosensor, it allows equipment‐free on‐site quantification of acidogenic pathogens for the early diagnosis of dental caries.

Molecular and Clinical Characterization of the Hb Tübingen [β106(G8) Leu→ Gln, HBB: c.320 T>A] Associated With Congenital Methemoglobinemia in a Chinese Family

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Congenital methemoglobinemia caused by hemoglobin variants is a rare hematological disorder often misdiagnosed due to overlapping features with enzymatic defects. Hb Tübingen, a β‐globin chain variant (βCD106), is characterized by increased autoxidation, heat instability, and cyanosis.

Novel Laboratory Approaches in Heavy Chain Disease With Discordant Immunoglobulin Quantitation: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigated a rare case of γ‐heavy chain disease (γ‐HCD) through an integrated laboratory approach. Routine protein analyses (serum protein electrophoresis, immunotyping, and serum/urine immunofixation) identified an IgG monoclonal component without detectable light chains.

UGT1A1 Fragment Analysis: Genotyping the (TA)n Variable Repeat Polymorphism for Clinical Applications

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study developed a PCR‐based fragment analysis assay for UGT1A1 rs3064744 targeting TA5 (*36), TA6 (*1), TA7 (*28), and TA8 (*37). The assay was CLIA validated with data showing 100% concordance and a sensitivity of 0.5 ng/uL. The assay was then implemented in a patient cohort of n = 940 and the results compared with PharmacoScan.

Bio‐Inspired, Zwitterionic Copolymers with Amphiphilic Character

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Zwitterionic copolymers based on arginine‐derived monomers are produced by xanthate‐supported photo‐iniferter reversible‐addition‐fragmentation chain‐transfer polymerization. Experiments in relevant conditions show that the designed (co)polymers hardly interact with biologically relevant proteins and enzymes such as bovine serum albumine (BSA), fetal ...
