1. Gene Silencing Therapeutics in Cardiology: A Review Article
Abstract Therapeutics that inhibit enzymes, receptors, ion channels, and cotransporters have long been the mainstay of cardiovascular medicine. Now, oligonucleotide therapeutics offer a modern variation on this paradigm of protein inhibition. Rather than target a protein, however, small interfering ribonucleic acids and antisense oligonucleotides target the

2. Design and evaluation of an AFLP molecular marker for the detection of Coccidioides spp. in biological samples
ABSTRACT At present, there is no standardized marker that is routinely used in clinical laboratories to diagnose coccidioidomycosis. Thus, the goals of this study were to obtain a sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) marker for the identification of Coccidioides spp., evaluate its specificity and sensitivity in fungal DNA-spiked blood and sputum sa

3. Usefulness of a multiplex PCR for the rapid identification of Candida glabrata species complex in Mexican clinical isolates
ABSTRACT Candida glabrata complex includes three species identified through molecular biology methods: C. glabrata sensu stricto , C. nivariensis and C. bracarensis . In Mexico, the phenotypic methods are still used in the diagnosis; therefore, the presence of C. nivariensis and C. bracarensis among clinical isolates is still unknown. The aim of this study w

4. Electrochemiluminescence Detection of Silver Ion Based on Trigeminal Structure of DNA
A novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor for highly sensitive and selective detection of Ag+ is developed based on the sensitive “turn-on” structure-switching trigeminal structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA-TS). DNA-TS consists of three oligonucleotides hybridized to form three double-stranded DNA like Y-shaped DNA structure. The formation of

5. Genotyping of Leptospira interrogans isolates from Mexican patients
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was genotypically characterize Leptospira sp. clinical isolates from Mexico which were previously identified as Leptospira interrogans serovar Pomona (POM) by phenotypic methods. The Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) method was used for DNA amplification with five oligonucleotides. A dendrogram was constructed using the U

6. Mixed Ternary Mononuclear Copper(II) Complexes Based on Valproic Acid with 1,10-Phenanthroline and 2,2'-Bipyridine Ligands: DNA Interaction and Cytotoxicity in V79 Cells
This paper reports the DNA interaction and cytotoxicity of binary and ternary copper(II) complexes of valproic acid with phenanthroline or bipyridine and the complementary characterization of Cu(Valp)2Bipy by crystallography. Circular dichroism, plasmid and oligonucleotide assays have shown that the complexes interact with DNA in different manners and are ab

7. Use of fluorescent oligonucleotide probes for differentiation between Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and Paracoccidioides lutzii in yeast and mycelial phase
BACKGROUND Fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) associated with Tyramide Signal Amplification (TSA) using oligonucleotides labeled with non-radioactive fluorophores is a promising technique for detection and differentiation of fungal species in environmental or clinical samples, being suitable for microorganisms which are difficult or even impossible

8. Aptamers as a promising approach for the control of parasitic diseases
ABSTRACT Aptamers are short single-stranded RNA or DNA oligonucleotides that are capable of binding various biological targets with high affinity and specificity. Their identification initially relies on a molecular process named SELEX (Systematic Evolution of Ligands by EXponential enrichment) that has been later modified in order to improve aptamer sensiti

9. A molecular platform for the diagnosis of multidrug-resistant and pre-extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis based on single nucleotide polymorphism mutations present in Colombian isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Developing a fast, inexpensive, and specific test that reflects the mutations present in Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates according to geographic region is the main challenge for drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) control. The objective of this study was to develop a molecular platform to make a rapid diagnosis of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively d

11. Development of sandwich-form biosensor to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex in clinical sputum specimens
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causing agent of tuberculosis, comes second only after HIV on the list of infectious agents slaughtering many worldwide. Due to the limitations behind the conventional detection methods, it is therefore critical to develop new sensitive sensing systems capable of quick detection of the infectious agent. In the present study, t

12. Association of Bartonella spp bacteremia with Chagas cardiomyopathy, endocarditis and arrythmias in patients from South America
Infection with Bartonella spp may cause cardiac arrhythmias, myocarditis and endocarditis in humans. The aim of the present study was to evaluate a possible association between Bartonella spp bacteremia and endocarditis, arrhythmia and Chagas cardiomyopathy in patients from Brazil and Argentina. We screened for the presence of bacterial 16S rRNA in human blo
