Easy genotyping of complement C3 'slow' and 'fast' allotypes by tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system PCR.

Abstract:

:Complement C3 'slow' and 'fast' allotypes are associated with immune-mediated disorders and may affect the outcome of renal transplantation. We report a tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system PCR (T-ARMS-PCR) that provides a rapid, reproducible and cost-effective method to genotype both complement C3 'slow' and 'fast' alleles by a single tube reaction.

  • Insulin-like growth factor-I activates NFκB and NLRP3 inflammatory signalling via ROS in cancer cells.

    abstract::Previous studies have demonstrated that insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-1) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in the development and progression of various cancers. However, their regulatory mechanism remains unknown. In this study, we treated cancer cells (HeLa, HepG2 and SW1116 cells) and normal cells ...
