The aim of this study was to investigate germline mutations of the APC, MUTYH and AXIN2 genes in Chinese patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), and further assess the value of bioinformatics in screening the pathogenic changes predisposing to FAP. APC genes from 11 unrelated FAP patients in Yunnan province in China were firstly examined by exon-specific DNA sequencing. For samples ...

INTRODUCTION In the phase IV, open-label, single-arm study NCT01203917, first-line gefitinib 250 mg/d was effective and well tolerated in Caucasian patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (previously published). Here, we report EGFR mutation analyses of plasma-derived, circulating-free tumor DNA. METHODS Mandatory tumor and duplicate ...

Due to the increasing need for subject privacy, the ability to deidentify structural MR images so that they do not provide full facial detail is desirable. A program was developed that uses models of nonbrain structures for removing potentially identifying facial features. When a novel image is presented, the optimal linear transform is computed for the input volume (Fischl et al. [2002]: Neuro...

Here, we report the synthesis and physical properties of Co2FeGe (CFG) Heusler alloy (HA) nanoparticles (NPs). The NPs size 23 nm are prepared using co-precipitation method. X-ray selected area electron diffraction patterns have confirmed cubic phase with A2-disorder. These soft ferromagnetic, exhibit a high saturation magnetization (Ms) along very Curie temperature (Tc) 1060 K. observed Tc val...
