摘要:
Methods for enriching specific microparticles, such as fetal microparticles or disease specific microparticles, in a biological sample are disclosed. In certain embodiments, the methods include combining a biological sample with a molecule that binds specific microparticles, and separating fractions of the biological sample, wherein the fraction that contains the binding molecule is enriched for the specific microparticles. Also disclosed are methods for enriching fetal nucleic acids by enriching fetal microparticles in a fraction of the biological sample and isolating nucleic acids from the enriched fraction. Methods for facilitating prenatal diagnosis of fetal chromosomal abnormalities are disclosed. In certain embodiments, the methods include combining a biological sample with a molecule that binds fetal microparticles, separating fractions of the biological sample, isolating nucleic acids from the fraction enriched for fetal microparticles, and analyzing the nucleic acids for the presence of a mutation.
摘要:
Methods and compositions for detecting tumor origin are disclosed. In certain embodiments, the origin is determined by detecting expression levels of pan-epithelial membrane mucin (MUC1), intestinal-type secretory mucin (MUC2), cytokeratin 17 (CK17), or a combination thereof. Also disclosed are methods for aiding in the determination of an appropriate course of treatment for a subject with a tumor, or for predicting a therapeutic outcome of a subject, based on the expression levels of MUC1, MUC2, CK17, or a combination thereof. Kits for use in each of these methods are also provided.
摘要:
A system and method are disclosed for reliable communications in a packet network. A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a network management system (NMS) having a controller programmed to establish between first and second customer edge (CE) routers in a full mesh packet network first and second logical data tunnels conforming to an isolation protocol, synchronize packet data in the first and second logical data tunnels, enable packet data exchanges between the first and second CE routers over the first logical data tunnel, direct the first and second CE routers to duplicate the packet data exchanged between them over the second logical data tunnel, and direct the first and second CE routers to synchronously switch to the second logical data tunnel upon detecting a fault in the first logical data tunnel.
摘要:
Variants in MYH gene are disclosed which can result in abnormal synthesis of MYH proteins and alteration of MYH activities. The invention provides methods for detecting the newly discovered genetic variants. Use of MYH genetic variants as biomarkers in diagnosing cancer and detecting a predisposition to cancer are also disclosed herein.
摘要:
A power screwdriver is disclosed having a drive which is coupled via a clutch, disengaging as a function of torque, to a tool drive shaft for driving a tool. The screwdriver comprises an electronic control unit for controlling the drive, and a sensor which is coupled to the electronic control unit in order to switch off the drive when the clutch responds. The electronic control unit is designed for activating the drive with a certain output, preferably with a reduced output, for a limited time after switch-off.
