Goldview marked DNA fluorescence capillary biosensor was studied in the present paper. Based on fluorescence capillary analysis (FCA), the DNA biosensor uses capillary as immobilization carrier and detection carrier of DNA probe. Probes (20-mer-ssDNA) were immobilized on the inner wall of capillary by poly-l-lysine, and DNA fluorescence capillary biosensor (DNA-FCB) was made. After being hybridized with complementary target DNA and dyed by Goldview, the target DNA was qualified or quantified by detecting the fluorescence density of the Goldview using F-4500 spectrofluorometer. The sample volume was 12 microL. The concentration of the target DNA showed good linearity with the fluorescence intensity in the range of 0. 4-4 micromol x L(-1) (2.4-24 mg x L(-1)) (y = 65.911x + 3.9944, r = 0.9989). The RSD was lower than 3.5%. The concentration detection limit of the target DNA was 0.39 micromol x L(-1) (2.2 mg x L(-1)). The DNA-FCB can be used to qualify or quantify the target DNA. It's advantages are simplicity of manipulation, thimbleful of sample and reagent volumes, repeated use of capillary, and the lowest test cost. By using DNA-FCB to qualify the target DNA, we can consumedly decrease the pollution of the environment.

Targeting tumor angiogenesis with safe endogenous protein inhibitors is a promising therapeutic approach despite the plethora of the first line of emerging chemotherapeutic drugs. The extracellular matrix network in the blood vessel basement membrane and growth factors released from endothelial and tumor cells promote the neovascularization which supports the tumor growth. Contrastingly, small cleaved cryptic fragments of the C-terminal non collagenous domains of the same basement membrane display antiangiogenic effect.

Introduction: The establishment of a high-throughput quantification approach for waterborne pathogenic protozoa and helminths is crucial for rapid screening and health risk assessment.

Methods: We developed a high-throughput quantitative polymerase chain reaction (HT-qPCR) assay targeting 19 waterborne protozoa and 3 waterborne helminths and validated its sensitivity, specificity, and repeatability. The assay was then applied to test various environmental media samples.

The sine oculis homeobox homolog (SIX) family, a group of transcription factors characterized by a conserved DNA-binding homology domain, plays a critical role in orchestrating embryonic development and organogenesis across various organisms, including humans. Comprising six distinct members, from to , each member contributes uniquely to the development and differentiation of diverse tissues and organs, underscoring the versatility of the SIX family. Dysregulation or mutations in genes have been implicated in a spectrum of developmental disorders, as well as in tumor initiation and progression, highlighting their pivotal role in maintaining normal developmental trajectories and cellular functions.

In cutaneous melanoma, epigenetic dysregulation is implicated in drug resistance and tumor immune escape. However, the epigenetic mechanisms that influence immune escape remain poorly understood. To elucidate how epigenetic dysregulation alters the expression of surface proteins that may be involved in drug targeting and immune escape, we performed a 3-dimensional surfaceome screen in primary melanoma cultures and identified the DNA-methyltransferase inhibitor decitabine as significantly upregulating the costimulatory molecule ICAM-1.

Background: Ataxia-telangiectasia (Louis-Bar syndrome) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by progressive ataxia, ocular telangiectasias, immunodeficiency and increased cancer risk due to impaired DNA repair.

Phenomenology Shown: Thorough clinical and subsequently radiological examination in a 19-year-old woman with a history of previously undiagnosed, progressive gait ataxia since early childhood, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and severe combined immunodeficiency revealed the eponymous features of the disease, ocular telangiectasias and cerebellar atrophy, enabling targeted genetic testing.

Educational Value: Ocular telangiectasias represent an important clue for a diagnosis of ataxia-telangiectasia in young patients with progressive ataxia, implicating awareness of increased malignancy risk and treatment of immunodeficiency.
