Elevated Circulating Fatty Acid Synthase Is a Diagnostic Biomarker for Peripheral Artery Disease

Elevated levels of a soluble form of the enzyme fatty acid synthase (sFSA) in the blood have been linked to development of the severe vascular disorder peripheral artery disease (PAD). More...

ALPK3 Truncating Variants Cause Autosomal Dominant Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, heart muscles are thicker, which can make it harder for the heart to receive and pump blood. While in most cases the condition will not affect daily life, it can cause heart failure and is frequently cited as the most common cause of sudden unexpected death in young people. More...

PCR Assay Detects and Differentiates Coccidioides Species

Coccidioidomycosis (Valley Fever) is a pulmonary and systemic fungal disease with increasing incidence and expanding endemic areas. The differentiation of etiologic agents Coccidioides immitis and C. posadasii remains problematic in the clinical laboratories as conventional PCR and satellite typing schemes are difficult. More...

Liquid Biopsy Test Tracks Treatment-Based ctDNA Changes

Metastatic or unresectable disease is identified in approximately 20% of patients presenting with invasive urothelial cancer. In addition, up to 50% of patients will develop metastases following radical cystectomy for clinically localized disease. More...
