Reverse 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 کاملbcr-abl rearrangement in adult T-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
The bcr-abl rearrangement in T-lineage ALL has been rarely described. In the last three years we studied all new patients with ALL at diagnosis by cytogenetic and molecular analysis. Three out of eleven T-lineage ALL patients presented the rearrangement and only one was Philadelphia positive.
متن کاملApplication of Real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR)
The real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), also called quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (QRT-PCR) or kinetic polymerase chain reaction (kPCR), is a technique used to simultaneously quantify and amplify a DNA molecule. It is used to determine whether a specific DNA sequence is present in the sample; and if it is present, the number of copies in the sample. It is the real-t...
متن کاملbcr- abl variants in chronic myeloid leukemia patients by rt- multiplex pcr
objective: chronic myeloid leukemia (cml) is a malignant clonal disorder of hematopoietic stem cells which results in increase of myeloid cells, erythroid cells and platelets in the peripheral blood and hyperplasia in bone marrow. investigations have shown different types of bcr- abl variants in these patients. in iran only 3 types of these variants have been identified because most of the clin...
متن کاملNested-RT-PCR and multiplex RT-PCR for diagnosis of rhinovirus infection in clinical samples.
Human rhinoviruses (HRVs) are positive-stranded RNA viruses belonging to the Enterovirus genus in the family of Picornaviridae. Identification of the specific strain in HRV disease has been difficult because the traditional serological method is insensitive, labor intensive, and cumbersome. With the fast progress in molecular biological technique, more sensitive and faster molecular methods hav...
