Abstracts of Presentations at the Association of Clinical Scientists 143 < sup > rd < /sup > Meeting Louisville, KY May 11-14,2022
Conclusion: These assays are suitable for routine diagnostic. The UltraFast NextGenPCR is the fastest with average time (30mins), followed by Agilent (2 hrs) and MassArray (6hrs). Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to examine, measure and compare results from different assays for SARS detection, evaluate and diagnose accurately, as well as being able to plan, organize and recommend a diagnostic procedure for diagnostic laboratory. Key words: SARS-CoV-2, RNA extraction, RT-PCR, limit of detection, quantification cycle, COVID-19, in vitro diagnostic tests, Agilent, Massarray, Ultrafast. [20] From t...

Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Reduces Kidney Folate Transporter Expression and Plasma Folate Levels
In conclusion, ischemia-reperfusion injury can downregulate Sp1 mediated-folate transporter expression in tubular cells, which may reduce folate reabsorption and lead to low folate status.

A Critical Role of Growth Arrest-Specific Gene 6-Mer Axis in the Pathogenesis of Endothelial Damage Contributing to Thrombotic Microangiopathy Associated with Graft-Versus-Host Disease after Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) are severe complications of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT). Host endothelial cells are targets of alloreactive donor cytotoxic T lymphocytes or various proinflammatory cytokines following allo-SCT, and endothelial damage plays an important role in the pathogenic mechanism(s) of TMA associated with GVHD. However, the detailed mechanism(s) of TMA as well as GVHD have not yet been fully elucidated. Growth arrest-specific (Gas) 6 structurally belongs to the family of plasma vitamin K-dependent proteins working as a cofactor for...
