Analytical methods of biological monitoring for exposure to pesticides: Recent update
(2007)Extensive use of synthetic pesticides for agricultural and nonagricultural purposes began in the past 50 years. As a result of their wide and extensive application, exposure to hazardous pesticides is a concern to the ... -
Angiopoietin-1 and angiopoietin-2 as serum biomarkers for ectopic pregnancy and missed abortion A case-control study
(2013)Background: A case-control study to evaluate whether a single serum measurement of angiopoietin-1 (ANG-1) and angiopoietin-2 (ANG-2) at 6-8 weeks gestation can differentiate failed pregnancies, whether ectopic pregnancies ... -
Anti-mitochondrial antibody immunofluorescent titres correlate with the number and intensity of immunoblot-detected mitochondrial bands in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis
(2007)Background: Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC)-specific anti-mitochondrial antibodies (AMA), routinely detected by indirect immunofluoresnce, immunofix various mitochondrial antigens by immunoblot (IB). We have investigated ... -
Applications and Biomonitoring Issues of Recombinant Erythropoietins for Doping Control
(2011)The biochemical actions and side effects of recombinant erythropoietins (rhEPOs), their analogs and mimetics, their misuse as doping agents, and the principal analytical strategies developed to identify them in athletes' ... -
The association between plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) levels, PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphism, and myocardial infarction: a Mendelian randomization meta-analysis
(2014)Background: The circulating levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) are increased in individuals carrying the 4G allele at position -675 of the PAI-1 gene. In turn, overexpression of PAI-1 has been found ... -
Automated sleep breath disorders detection utilizing patient sound analysis
(2012)Results of clinical studies suggest that there is a relationship between breathing-related sleep disorders and behavioral disorder and health effects. Apnea is considered one of the major sleep disorders with great accession ... -
Brain lesion classification using 3T MRS spectra and paired SVM kernels
(2011)The increased power and resolution capabilities of 3T Magnetic Resonance (MR) scanners have extended the reach of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy as a non-invasive diagnostic tool. Practical sensor calibration issues, ... -
Cell-free plasma DNA as a novel marker of aseptic inflammation severity related to exercise overtraining
(2006)Background: Circulating free plasma DNA is implicated in conditions associated with tissue injury, including exercise-induced inflammation, and thus is a potential marker for athletic overtraining. Methods: We measured ... -
Clear detection and typing of Herpes Simplex Virus types 1 and 2 by an indirect ELISA assay: Comparison with three different combined methods - Capture ELISA, restriction enzymes, and polymerase chain reaction
(1997)The severity and recurrences of Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) infection depend on the type of the infectious agent (HSV-1 or HSV-2), which induces the necessity of a nonambiguous detecting typing. The commonly used capture ... -
Correlation Between Cyclin B1 Immunostaining in Cervical Biopsies and HPV Detection by PCR
(2009)In recent years, experimental data on the roles of viruses and cyclin B1 in G2/M arrest has accumulated. The aim of our study Was to immunohistochemically examine a series of cervical squamous intraepithelial lesions for ... -
Diagnostic and clinical significance of Crohn's disease-specific anti-MZGP2 pancreatic antibodies by a novel ELISA
(2015)Background: We developed a new IgA and IgG anti-MZGP2 antibody ELISAs based on recombinant isoform-4 of human zymogen granule protein-2 (GP2), which is the major autoantigen of Crohn's disease (CrD)-specific pancreatic ... -
Diagnostic and clinical utility of antibodies against the nuclear body promyelocytic leukaemia and Sp100 antigens in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis
(2012)Background: The lack of an immunoassay that detects antibodies to promyelocytic leukaemia (PML) protein, the primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC)-specific multiple nuclear dot (MND) antigen, has prompted us to develop a line ... -

Evaluation of a microsphere-based flow cytometric assay for diagnosis of Celiac disease
(2004)The multiplexed particle-based flow cytometric technology proposes a new approach for the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases combining the advantages of conventional methods with the ability to quantitatively determine ... -
Expression of 6 Common Antigenic Markers in Invasive Ductal Breast Carcinoma: Potential Clinical Implications
(2011)Expression of estrogen (ER) and progesterone receptors, c-erbB-2 oncogene, mutant p53 antioncogene (mp53), e-cadherin adhesion, and apoptotic caspase-8 antigens in tumor relative to matched normal tissue specimens from 102 ... -

(2010)Staphylococcus lugdunensis is an unusually virulent coagulase-negative species, associated with severe infections The present report describes the development of a single-step, species-specific PCR protocol for S. lugdunensis ... -
Genome-wide association studies: hypothesis-"free" or "engaged"?
(2009)The advent of the first wave of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) provided a new conceptual framework in the search for variants underlying common disorders: a massive scan of the genome, free from underlying assumptions ... -
Identification of the four most common beta-globin gene mutations in Greek beta-thalassemic patients and carriers by PCR-SSCP: Advantages and limitations of the method
(2006)In the present study we investigated whether the single-strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) method could be employed to identify (rather than simply detect) the four most common beta-globin gene mutations in the Greek ...
