Soybean seed-protein content and composition is important because it contributes over half the value of this $61 billion crop. Historic negative correlation between seed-protein content and oil have been reported. Similarly, negative correlation between seed-protein content and yield have been reported but may be at least in part mitigated by increasing the genetic diversity of the elite soybean germplasm.

Trypsin inhibitors (TI), a common anti-nutritional factor in soybean, prevent animals' protein digestibility reducing animal growth performance. No commercial soybean cultivars with low or null concentration of TI are available. The availability of a high throughput genotyping assay will be beneficial to incorporate the low TI trait into elite breeding lines.

Objectives: To evaluate the cause and significance of elevated activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) in a group of patients who received a first-generation adenoviral vector (Ad-OC-TK) delivering a toxic gene to prostate cancer cells as part of a Phase I clinical trial at the University of Virginia.
Methods: Eleven subjects were injected intratumorally to metastatic lesions of prostate cancer in the prostatic fossa, retroperitoneal lymph nodes, or bone (iliac, ischium, or vertebrae). After the initial laboratory evaluation, patients with elevated aPTT underwent a series of additional tests, including mixing studies, coagulation factor, prekallikrein, and high-molecular-weight kininogen, and lupus anticoagulant studies (modified Russell viper venom time) with phospholipid correction, and a Staclot LA assay.
Objective: To compare the efficacy of the lipido-sterolic extract of Serenoa repens, Permixon, to that of the a-blocker, tamsulosin, in the treatment of severe low urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Methods: In a 12-month, double-blind, randomized study that showed equivalent efficacy of Permixon 320 mg/day and tamsulosin 0.4 mg/day ("PERMAL study"), 685 BPH patients with IPSS > 10 had been analyzed for efficacy.
