Fluorescent in Situ Hybridization and Real-Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction to Evaluate HER-2/neu Status in Breast Cancer
Background:Breast cancer remains the most common and second lethal cancer in females. HER-2/neu is one of the most important amplified oncogene in breast cancer. The amplification of HER-2 is correlated with decreased survival, metastasis, and early recurrence. The amplification of HER-2/neu gene and synthesis of th...
متن کاملChromogenic in situ Hybridization Compared with Real Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction to Evaluate HER2/neu Status in Breast Cancer
Background and objective: The assessment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status has become of great importance in the diagnosis of breast cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) and Chromogenic In Situ Hybridization (CISH) to assess HER2 status of biopsy specimens. <...
متن کاملAccuracy of polymerase chain reaction assays for diagnosis of feline immunodeficiency virus infection in cats.
OBJECTIVE To determine the sensitivity, specificity, and overall diagnostic accuracy of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays offered by commercial diagnostic laboratories for diagnosis of FIV infection in cats. DESIGN Prospective clinical trial. ANIMALS 124 cats. PROCEDURE Blood was collected from cats that were neither infected with nor vaccinated against FIV, uninfected cats that were...
متن کاملTissue diagnosis of Ehrlichia chaffeensis in patients with fatal ehrlichiosis by use of immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, and polymerase chain reaction.
In the United States, human ehrlichiosis is a complex of emerging tick-borne diseases caused by 3 distinct Ehrlichia species: Ehrlichia chaffeensis, Ehrlichia ewingii, and the human granulocytotropic ehrlichiosis agent. Ehrlichioses are characterized by a mild to severe illness, and approximately 4% of cases are fatal. Because these obligate intracellular bacteria are difficult to resolve with ...
متن کاملDiagnosis of foetal rubella virus infection by polymerase chain reaction.
We have used the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to provide a very sensitive and unequivocal test for diagnosis of foetal rubella virus infection. RNA extracted from biopsy specimens (chorionic villi), placenta or products of conception was reverse-transcribed using a rubella virus-specific oligonucleotide primer and the cDNA was amplified by PCR. The specificity of the amplified fragment was c...
