A wealth of information on proteins involved in many aspects disease is encased within formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue repositories stored hospitals worldwide. Recently, access to this "hidden treasure" being actively pursued by the application two main extraction strategies: digestion entangled protein matrix with generation tryptic peptides, or decrosslinking and full-length proteins. Here, we describe an optimised method for from FFPE tissues. This builds classical "antigen...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) represent a family of small non-coding ribonucleic acids that post-transcriptionally inhibits the expression their target messenger RNAs (mRNAs), thereby acting as general gene repressors. In this study we examined relative quantity and stability miRNA subjected to long period freezing; compared eight miRNAs in plasma five human healthy controls before freezing after six 12 months storage at −80 °C. addition, frozen for 14 years amount still available. Using Life...
Factors influencing the pattern of Helicobacter pylori infection among children living in adjacent urban and rural areas northern Sardinia, Italy, were compared. The seroprevalence H. was 22% (625 2810 children) study population significantly higher (37%) than (13%) (odds ratio [OR], 3.8; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.2-4.7; P<.005). This difference consistent within each age group. In areas, who had dogs at greatest risk for (OR, 1.8; CI, 1.3-2.6; P<.05). No association seen between...
Background. Among patients with celiac disease (CD), there is an increased incidence of autoimmune thyroid disorders (AITDs), hypothyroidism being more frequent than hyperthyroidism. This retrospective case-control study aimed to explore the prevalence TDs in a population adult from Northern Sardinia, geographic area high disorders. Methods. Data were collected consecutive CD (cases) and without (controls) who undergoing upper endoscopy referred tertiary gastroenterology section teaching...
Helicobacter pylori infection is typically acquired in childhood, and following the acute event, it thought that most infections remain asymptomatic. H. has been suggested to protect against diarrhea childhood.To examine role of gastrointestinal symptoms children.A cross-sectional sero-epidemiologic study was conducted Porto Torres, Sardinia, Italy. Demographic information, socioeconomic factors, frequency upper during previous 3 months (e.g., abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, heartburn,...
Background: The risk of developing thyroid disorders (TDs) in subjects with inherited glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is unknown. aim this study was to explore the association between autoimmune (AITD) and G6PD Northern Sardinia, a population high frequency these two conditions. Methods: In retrospective single-center case–control study, demographic clinical data were collected from patients examined tertiary referral Gastroenterology Section teaching hospital. Results:...
