Quantification and diagnostic relevance of blood and heme-mediated inhibition of prion detection by RT-QuIC

Journal of Clinical Microbiology
Prion diseases are characterized by misfolding of prion protein (PrP) from correctly folded PrPC to a disease-associated form, PrPD. Real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) detects prions by “seeding” reaction mixtures, which contain recombinant ...

Second-Generation RT-QuIC Assay for the Diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease Patients in Brazil

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
The recent development of IQ-CSF, the second generation of real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) using cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), for the diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) represents a major diagnostic advance in the field.

Standardization of Data Analysis for RT-QuIC-Based Detection of Chronic Wasting Disease

Pathogens, 2023
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a disease affecting cervids and is caused by prions accumulating as pathogenic fibrils in lymphoid tissue and the central nervous system.

Pathological α-synuclein detected by real-time quaking-induced conversion in synucleinopathies

Experimental Gerontology
synucleinopathies are diseases characterized by the aggregation of α-synuclein (α-syn), which forms fibrils through misfolding and accumulates in a prion-like manner.

High sensitivity of an ELISA kit for detection of the gamma-isoform of 14-3-3 proteins: usefulness in laboratory diagnosis of human prion disease [PDF]

, 2011
Background The gamma-isoform of the 14-3-3 protein (14-3-3 gamma) is expressed in neurons, and could be a specific marker for neuronal damage.

Quantitative EEG parameters correlate with the progression of human prion diseases [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Prion diseases are universally fatal and often rapidly progressive neurodegenerative diseases. EEG has long been used in the diagnosis of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease; however, the characteristic waveforms do not occur in all types of ...

Lignin biosynthesis in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.): its response to waterlogging and association with hormonal levels [PDF]

, 2016
Phylogenetic relationships of wheat C3H and CCoAOMT genes with the homologs from other species. Phylogenetic trees of C3H (A) and CCoAOMT (B) were generated based on nucleic acid sequence similarity of wheat genes with 15 C3H and 19 CCoAOMT genes ...
