Origins of T‐cell‐mediated autoimmunity in acquired aplastic anaemia
Acquired aplastic anaemia (AA) is an autoimmune bone marrow failure disease caused by a cytotoxic T‐cell–mediated attack on haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Despite significant progress in understanding T‐cell repertoire alterations in AA, the identification of specific pathogenic T cells remains elusive.

Use of streptavidin magnetic beads in single strand conformation polymorphism profiles to detect mutations in rpoB gene of M.tuberculosis [PDF]
Single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) is one of the promising techniques to identify mutations in short pieces of DNA (Orita et al. 1989). In this technique, DNA of interest is often amplified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and then ...

ABSTRACT Background Changes in functional genetic polymorphisms may increase or decrease the risk of cancer in patients. Nowadays, the association between polymorphisms in the interleukin‐8 (IL‐8) gene and the susceptibility of cancer risk have been investigated in many studies, however, above relationships remain unclear. Aim The current study aims to

Gain-of-function mutations and copy number increases of Notch2 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma [PDF]
Signaling through the Notch1 receptor has a pivotal role in early thymocyte development. Gain of Notch1 function results in the development of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia in a number of mouse experimental models, and activating Notch1 mutations ...

[PGM1 genotyping by PCR-SSCP].
PGM1 genotyping by PCR-SSCP analysis.Amplified genome DNA from 156 unrelated Han individuals living in Wuhan, PCR products for exon 4 and exon 8 of PGM1 were then analyzed by SSCP to detect the genotypes.2 alleles and 3 genotypes were detected in exon 4 and 8 respectively. The discrimination power was 0.7318.

An efficient CRISPR‐Cas12a‐mediated MicroRNA knockout strategy in plants
Summary In recent years, the CRISPR‐Cas9 nuclease has been used to knock out MicroRNA (miRNA) genes in plants, greatly promoting the study of miRNA function. However, due to its propensity for generating small insertions and deletions, Cas9 is not well‐suited for achieving a complete knockout of miRNA genes.
