Associations between bovine lactoferrin gene polymorphism and somatic cell count in milk

Veterinární Medicína, 2006
The study included 124 Polish Black-and-White dairy cows of various share of the Holstein-Friesian (HF) breed. Lactoferrin (LTF) gene polymorphism was obtained with PCR-RFLP method using EcoRI enzyme.

Crucial parameters for precise copy number variation detection in formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded solid cancer samples

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that copy number variations (CNVs) can be reliably detected in formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) solid cancer samples using ultra‐low‐pass whole‐genome sequencing, provided that key (pre)‐analytical parameters are optimized.

Oral supplementation of medium-chain fatty acids during the dry period supports the neutrophil viability of peripartum dairy cows [PDF]

, 2013
A randomised clinical trial was conducted to explore the effect of orally supplemented medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA) to heifers and cows starting 6-8 weeks prior to expected calving date on blood and milk polymorphonuclear neutrophilic leucocyte (PMNL)

Usefulness of differential somatic cell count for udder health monitoring: Association of differential somatic cell count and somatic cell score with quarter-level milk yield and milk components

Journal of Dairy Science
: Mastitis is the most common disease affecting dairy cattle and is associated with substantial milk loss. Somatic cell count has been widely used as an indicator of udder inflammation (e.g., subclinical mastitis).

Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of single circulating tumor cells in the follow‐up of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Single circulating tumor cells (sCTCs) from high‐grade serous ovarian cancer patients were enriched, imaged, and genomically profiled using WGA and NGS at different time points during treatment. sCTCs revealed enrichment of alterations in Chromosomes 2, 7, and 12 as well as persistent or emerging oncogenic CNAs, supporting sCTC identity.

Rapid, ultra low coverage copy number profiling of cell-free DNA as a precision oncology screening strategy. [PDF]

, 2017
Current cell-free DNA (cfDNA) next generation sequencing (NGS) precision oncology workflows are typically limited to targeted and/or disease-specific applications.

Using the somatic cell count report

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports, 1996
Mammary gland health and milk quality have a direct effect on a dairy's profit. In fact, these are the most costly health problems on dairy farms. Yet, many producers are unaware of losses from mammary health because subclinical mastitis, which is not visually observed, is the most common problem.

Somatic cell counts in dairy marketing: quantile regression for count data

European Review of Agricultural Economics, 2015
We study the determinants of somatic cell count (SCC) for farm milk among US dairies. We synthesise much of the work that has been done to model SCC determinants in order to identify the potential impacts of buyer-imposed penalties and incentives within the supply chain.

Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...

Farmers’ reaction upon receiving economic information in controlling somatic cell count [PDF]

Adoption and implementation of efficient somatic cell count (SCC) control practices is an action of behavioral change, which is notoriously difficult to achieve and sustain, even when substantial production and economic gains are to be expected.
