Ultrasensitive Antibody Detection Enabled by Agglutination-PCR

Antibodies are widely used biomarkers for the diagnosis of many diseases and assays based on solid-phase immobilization of antigens comprise the majority of clinical platforms for antibody detection, but can be undermined by antigen denaturation and epitope masking.   More...

Elevated C-Reactive Protein Found in H7N9 Influenza Infection

The avian influenza H7N9 virus can cause cytokine overproduction and result in severe pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome; and many studies have focused on hypercytokinemia during avian influenza infection.  More...

Chagas Urine Nanoparticle Test Correlates with Parasitemia Levels

Early diagnosis of reactivated Chagas disease in human immunodeficiency virus patients could be lifesaving. In Latin America, the diagnosis is made by microscopical detection of the Trypanosoma cruzi parasite in the blood, a diagnostic test that lacks sensitivity.  More...

Gene Predicts Outcomes for Head and Neck Patients

A human cancer-causing gene, called the DEK oncogene, can be detected in the plasma of head and neck cancer patients and this may help doctors understand how a person's immune system could be used to treat cancer or predict outcomes for patients.   More...

Immunomarker Found for Recurring HPV-Linked Oropharyngeal Cancers

Human papilloma virus infection antibodies in patients treated for oropharyngeal (mouth and throat) cancers linked to HPV infection suggests at least one of the antibodies could be useful in identifying those at risk.  More...
