‘Similar To’ Is Not ‘Identical With’, and ‘Identical With’ Is Not ‘The Same As’
Presently, we have a large number of botulinum neuro-toxins (BoNTs) at our disposal, but in the western hemisphere these are limited almost exclusively to the botulinum toxin A preparations: Abo-(ABO), inco-(INCO), and onabotulinumtoxinA (ONA). Because these are biological preparations, they are never identical to each other, but they are, at most, similar to each other. Their efficacy has been...
متن کاملParallel Immunizations of Rabbits Using the Same Antigen Yield Antibodies with Similar, but Not Identical, Epitopes
A problem for the generation of polyclonal antibodies is the potential difficulties for obtaining a renewable resource due to batch-to-batch variations when the same antigen is immunized into several separate animals. Here, we have investigated this issue by determining the epitopes of antibodies generated from parallel immunizations of rabbits with recombinant antigens corresponding to ten hum...
متن کاملCAM5.2 is not identical to cytokeratins 8 and 18.
To the Editor In an article entitled “Prognostic Significance of CXCL12 Expression in Patients With Colorectal Carcinoma,”1 we found that the authors may have inadvertently annotated CAM5.2 as cytokeratins (CKs) 8 and 18 by using a pair of square brackets to reference some reports, which might suggest that CAM5.2 is identical to CK8 and CK18. Becton Dickinson (BD) Biosciences revised the data s...
متن کاملFibroblast cellular and plasma fibronectins are similar but not identical
Fibronectins are multimeric, adhesive glycoproteins present on cell surfaces and circulating in blood. Cellular fibronectin produced by fibroblasts in vitro and fibronectin isolated from plasma are known to be very similar immunologically and biochemically. We investigated whether or not they are identifical. Purified chicken and human cell-surface fibronectins are 150-fold more active in hemag...
متن کاملP-value: What is and what is not
The misinterpretation and misuse of p-value have been increasing for decades. In March 2016, the American Statistical Association released a statement to warn about the use and interpretation of p-value. In this study, we provided a definition and discussion of p-value and emphasized the importance of its accurate interpretation.
