RT-PCR HETERODUPLEX ANALYSIS PERMITS DIFFERENTIATION OF TRANSGENE AND HOST GENE EXPRESSION IN A TRANSGENIC ANIMAL MODEL

RT-PCR Heteroduplex Analysis Permits Differentiation of Transgene and Host Gene Expression in a Transgenic Animal Model

In transgenic animal models, the conservation of DNA sequences between the transgene and the host wild-type gene can complicate the evaluation of the expression of each gene.The potential for gene silencing may complicate matters further.Here we report the use of RT-PCR heteroduplex analysis to differentiate the expression of a transgene and its em

Isolated Third Cranial Nerve Palsy Associated with Sudden Worsening of Hypotonic Hyponatremia Secondary to Ischemic Pituitary Apoplexy

Pituitary apoplexy (PA) is a rare medical emergency.The sudden pressure increase in the sella turcica may determine compression on the surrounding structures determining the classical symptomatology associated, especially visual field impairment and/or ocular palsies and hypopituitarism; hypotonic hyponatremia may occur too, even if it is not commo

A algorithm for the Vehicle Problem

In this paper, we propose a hybrid ACO algorithm for solving vehicle routing problem (VRP) heuristically in combination with an exact In the basic VRP, geographically scattered customers of lycogel known demand are supplied from a single depot by a fleet of identically capacitated vehicles.The intuition of the proposed algorithm is that nodes which
