Genetic identification of macroalgal species on Japanese tsunami marine debris and genetic comparisons with their wild populations.

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2017
Since 2012 a huge amount of marine debris caused by the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami has been arriving on Northeastern Pacific shores. Often healthy macroalgae were attached to them, which may become introduced to the Northwestern Pacific

Comparative performance evaluation of bisulfite- and enzyme-based DNA conversion methods

Clinical Epigenetics
Background Bisulfite conversion (BC) has been the gold standard in DNA methylation profiling for decades. During this chemical process, non-methylated cytosines are converted into uracils, while methylated cytosines remain intact. Despite its popularity,

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

Improving human forensics through advances in genetics, genomics and molecular biology [PDF]

, 2011
Forensic DNA profiling currently allows the identification of persons already known to investigating authorities. Recent advances have produced new types of genetic markers with the potential to overcome some important limitations of current DNA ...

Establishing an Apheresis Medicine Program in a Resource‐Constrained Setting: A 5‐Year Experience From Lagos, Nigeria

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Establishing a comprehensive apheresis medicine program in a resource‐constrained setting presents significant structural, financial, and logistical challenges. Despite the growing clinical importance of apheresis services globally, published experience from sub‐Saharan Africa remains sparse.

Developing a set of ancestry-sensitive DNA markers reflecting continental origins of humans [PDF]

, 2009
Background: The identification and use of Ancestry-Sensitive Markers (ASMs), i.e. genetic polymorphisms facilitating the genetic reconstruction of geographical origins of individuals, is far from straightforward.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Reduced SNP Panels for Genetic Identification and Introgression Analysis in the Dark Honey Bee (Apis mellifera mellifera)

PLoS ONE, 2015
Beekeeping activities, especially queen trading, have shaped the distribution of honey bee (Apis mellifera) subspecies in Europe, and have resulted in extensive introductions of two eastern European C-lineage subspecies (A. m. ligustica and A. m. carnica)

Investigating Single-Molecule Molecular Inversion Probes for Medium-Scale Targeted DNA Methylation Analysis

Epigenomes
Background: Epigenetic biomarkers, particularly CpG methylation, are increasingly employed in clinical and forensic settings. However, we still lack a cost-effective, sensitive, medium-scale method for the analysis of hundreds to thousands of user ...
