In a study of histocompatibility antigens in adult coeliac disease the HL-A phenotypes have been determined in 117 patients and 149 of their first-degree relatives, of whom 94 had had a jejunal biopsy performed. There was an increased frequency ofthe HL-A 8 antigen in the patients and their relatives. Family studies showed no irregularity in the inheritance of both this antigen and the HL-A 1 a...

Extragastrointestinal stromal tumors (EGISTs) are mesenchymal neoplasms without connection to the gastrointestinal tract. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and EGIST are similar according to their clinicopathologic and histomorphologic features. Both of them most often express immunoreactivity for CD-117, a c-kit proto-oncogene protein. The coexistence of GIST and pregnancy is very rare, ...

Different leukemias express on their plasma membranes particular subsets of the 247 defined cluster of differentiation (CD) antigens, which may resemble those of precursor cells along the lineages of differentiation to mature myeloid and lymphoid leukocytes. The extent of use of CD antigen expression (immunophenotyping) for identification of leukemias has been constrained by the technique used,...

PURPOSE Identification of a 32-kd protein in the bovine retinal pigment epithelium. METHODS A bovine retinal pigment epithelium cDNA library was constructed in the bacteriophage lambda ZAP Express. A monoclonal antibody, designated 21-C3/AV, was used to isolate the cDNA encoding the 21-C3/AV antigen. A positive full-length clone, designated 21-C3RDH/CD, was sequenced. Northern blot analysis w...

The accumulation of inbreeding and the loss of genetic diversity is a potential problem in the modern swine breeds in China. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to analyze the pedigrees of Chinese Duroc (CD), Landrace (CL) and Yorkshire (CY) swine to estimate the past and current rates of inbreeding, and to identify the main causes of genetic diversity loss. Pedigree files from CD, CL and ...

Transsphenoidal pituitary surgery (TSS) remains the treatment of choice for Cushing's disease (CD). Despite the widespread acceptance of this procedure as the first line treatment in CD, the indication of a second TSS in not cured or relapsed DC patients is not consensus. We report the results of TSS in 108 patients with CD (a total of 117 surgeries). The mean postoperative follow-up period was...

The objective of this study was to develop a bioremediation strategy for cadmium (Cd) and carbendazim co-contaminated soil using a hyperaccumulator plant (Sedum alfredii) combined with carbendazim-degrading bacterial strains (Bacillus subtilis, Paracoccus sp., Flavobacterium and Pseudomonas sp.). A pot experiment was conducted under greenhouse conditions for 180 days with S. alfredii and/or car...
