On joint maximum-likelihood estimation of PCR efficiency and initial amount of target [PDF]
We consider the problem of estimating unknown parameters of the real-time polymerase chain reaction (RTPCR) from noisy observations. The joint ML estimator of the RT-PCR efficiency and the initial number of DNA target molecules is derived.

AAV and RT-PCR: True or False?
Recombinant AAV vectors are capable of long-term gene expression with low toxicity in vivo (1). Therapeutic and sustained protein expression and correction of animal models of disease are now being reported, and human clinical trials are in progress. Several laboratories have evaluated AAV-mediated transduction by a variety of methods, including the ...

Guidelines for Quantitative RT-PCR [PDF]
Something I notice often in supervising new graduate students is their frustration with the irreproducibility of their biological data. For example, I am asked frequently “how many biological replicates do I need for qRT-PCR”?

C–C chemokine receptor type 9 (CCR9) is an immune checkpoint in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Novel anti‐CCR9 antibody SRB2 was evaluated in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy in PDAC cells, patient‐derived organoids, patient‐derived xenografts, and humanized mouse models.

Presence and persistence of Ebola or Marburg virus in patients and survivors: A rapid systematic review [PDF]
Background: The 2013-15 Ebola outbreak was unprecedented due to sustainedtransmission within urban environments and thousands of survivors. In 2014 the World Health Organization stated that there was insufficient evidence to give definitive guidance ...

TRIM24 and TRIM28 are androgen receptor (AR) coregulators which exhibit increased expression with cancer progression. Both TRIM24 and TRIM28 combine to influence the response of castrate‐resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) cells to AR inhibitors by mediating AR signalling, regulation of MYC and upregulating VEGF to promote angiogenesis. Castrate‐resistant

Liver‐specific knockout of N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase METTL3 significantly accelerated hepatic tumor initiation under various oncogenic challenges, contrary to the previously reported oncogenic role of METTL3 in liver cancer cell lines or xenograft models. Mechanistically, METTL3 deficiency reduced m6A deposition on Manf transcripts and

The A3 adenosine receptors (A3ARs) are overexpressed in prostate cancer. AR 292 and AR 357, as A3AR antagonists, are capable of blocking proliferation, modulating the expression of drug transporter genes involved in chemoresistance, ferroptosis, and the hypoxia response, and inducing cell death.

ICP34.5 is one of the most important antihost response proteins. The saRNA‐encoding HSV‐1 neurovirulence protein ICP34.5 clearly mediated the eukaryotic initiation factor 2 alpha subunit (eIF2α) dephosphorylation and significant suppression of innate immune responses in vitro, leading to enhanced expression of the saRNA‐encoded gene.

Stem cell‐based embryo models (SCBEMs) are valuable to study early developmental milestones. Matrigel, a basement membrane matrix, is a critical substrate used in various SCBEM protocols, but its role in driving stem cell lineage commitment is not clearly defined.
