Oculoleptomeningeal amyloidosis is a rare manifestation of hereditary transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis. Here, we present the first case of leptomeningeal amyloidosis associated with the TTR variant Leu12Pro mutation in an African patient. A 43-year-old right-handed Nigerian man was referred to our centre with rapidly progressive neurological decline. He presented initially with weight loss, confusion,...
The Sequential Sequence Mining produces large gene sequence. It is important find out meaningful information from the huge data. It mostly depends on the cell as such the most of these processes are controlled by the gene expression. Sequential Sequence Mining technique is useful to find sequential relationships between genes. Many algorithms have been developed to associate the huge amount of gene...
To evaluate biological markers as potential quantitative traits of clinical osteoarthritis (OA) in a large multigenerational family in the Carolinas of the USA known as the CARRIAGE (CARolinas Region Interaction of Aging, Genes and Environment) family.During a series of three family reunions over 6 years, we ascertained 365 family members. We performed clinical hand examinations (n=287), and obtained...
Over the last several years there has been an explosion of microarray technology in the biosciences, medical sciences, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical industry. The technology has centered on providing a platform for determining the gene expression profiles of hundreds to tens of thousands of genes (or transcript levels of RNA species) in tissue, tumors, cells, or biological fluids in a single experiment...
DNA copy number aberrations are common in cancer and other diseases. Newly developed array CGH technologies enable simultaneous measurement of DNA copy numbers for tens of thousands of sites within a genome. In array CGH experiments, DNA copy number of a test DNA sample relative to the DNA copy number of a reference DNA sample is measured. These relative measurements are mapped to their corresponding...
