Diagnosis of dengue by using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction.
A rapid identification of dengue viruses from clinical samples by using a nested reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) procedure was carried out for diagnostic and epidemiological purposes. RT-PCR identified DEN-1 and DEN-2 viruses in 41% (41/100) of previously confirmed cases and provided an accurate confirmation of DHF in four fatal cases. RT-PCR was also useful for detecti...
متن کاملReverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (rt-PCR).
Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) has become a well-established and powerful molecular technique for studying ribonucleic acids. It is used in medical diagnostics for detecting viral RNA, in hematology and oncology for detecting chimeric transcripts of rearranged genes (1), and in the broad area of research applications in gene expression studies. Since its introduction (...
متن کاملSensitive detection of circulating breast cancer cells by reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction of maspin gene.
BACKGROUND Maspin, a recently identified protein related to the family of serpins, is believed to play a role in human breast cancer. In an effort to improve the present methods of detection, we have developed a reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for maspin transcript to identify small numbers of mammary carcinoma cells in the peripheral blood and bone marrow of pati...
متن کاملDiagnosis of Brazilian vesiculoviruses by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.
We describe a reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and a nested-PCR for diagnosis of Piry, Carajás, Cocal, and Alagoas vesiculoviruses from Brazil. The RNA extracts of viral and clinical samples were submitted to a RT-PCR using Vesiculovirus G primers that amplify part of the glycoprotein gene. The RT-PCR produced amplicons of expected size, 290 base pair, for the four studi...
متن کاملPreoperative diagnosis of thyroid papillary and anaplastic carcinomas by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction of oncofetal fibronectin messenger RNA.
The restricted expression of oncofetal fibronectin (onfFN) mRNA in thyroid papillary and anaplastic carcinomas was recently reported. In this study, we measured the copy number of onfFN mRNA in RNAs extracted from fine needle aspiration biopsies by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR using thyroglobulin mRNA as an internal control. By measuring the onfFN:thyroglobulin mRNA ratio, p...
