ABSTRACT Introduction The International Society of Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH) guidelines suggest a three‐step evaluation for the detection of lupus anticoagulant (LA), including screening, mixing, and confirmation. According to the guidelines, the LA assay based on activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) should include an initial screening ...

Molecular and clinical studies in 138 Japanese patients with Silver-Russell syndrome.
BackgroundRecent studies have revealed relative frequency and characteristic phenotype of two major causative factors for Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS), i.e. epimutation of the H19-differentially methylated region (DMR) and uniparental maternal disomy 7 (

Successful generation of epigenetic disease model mice by targeted demethylation of the epigenome
Background Epigenetic modifications, including DNA methylation, play an important role in gene silencing and genome stability. Consequently, epigenetic dysregulation can cause several diseases, such as cancer, obesity, diabetes, autism, and imprinting ...
