Evaluation of Auramine O staining and conventional PCR for leprosy diagnosis: A comparative cross-sectional study from Ethiopia

Stewart Cole, Charlotte Avanzi, Philippe Busso

Background Diagnosis of leprosy mainly relies on clinical examination due to the inconsistent sensitivity and poor reproducibility of the current laboratory tests. Utilisation of alternative methods to the standard Ziehl Neelsen (ZN), Fite-Faraco (FF) and ...

Mapping mitochondrial heteroplasmy in a Leydig tumor by laser capture microdissection and cycling temperature capillary electrophoresis

Stephan Morgenthaler, Paul Refinetti, Per Olaf Ekstrom

Background: The growth of tumor cells is accompanied by mutations in nuclear and mitochondrial genomes creating marked genetic heterogeneity. Tumors also contain non-tumor cells of various origins. An observed somatic mitochondrial mutation would have occu ...

Haplosufficiency of PAX3 for melanoma development in Tyr: NRASQ61K; Cdkn2a-/- mice allows identification and sorting of melanoma cells using a Pax3GFP reporter allele

Friedrich Beermann

The role of the Pax3 gene in embryonic development of pigment cells is well characterized. By contrast, the function of Pax3 in melanoma development is controversial. Indeed, data obtained from cultured cells suggest that PAX3 may contribute to melanomagen ...

Notch1 Pathway Activity Determines the Regulatory Role of Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts in Melanoma Growth and Invasion

Freddy Radtke

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) play a crucial role in regulating cancer progression, yet the molecular determinant that governs the tumor regulatory role of CAF remains unknown. Using a mouse melanoma model in which exogenous melanoma cells were graft ...
