Maternal Multiomic Changes Could Predict Onset of Labor

Currently, predictions of when labor will start are imprecise and based on gestational age and an average pregnancy length of 40 weeks, even though the onset of labor between week 37 and 42 of pregnancy is considered normal. Having a better idea of when labor may arrive could help with planning and managing medical concerns like fetal lung maturation. More...

Developed Immunoassay Predicts Benefits of Anti-PD-1 Therapy in NSCLC

Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. However, current targeted therapies and immunotherapies have gradually improved patient survival. Anti-programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) antibodies (Abs) are key drugs in non-small-cell lung cancer treatment; however, clinical benefits with anti-PD-1 monotherapy are limited. More...

ANGPTL8 Levels Associated with Hyperlipidemia in Primary Nephrotic Syndrome

The typical clinical manifestations of Primary Nephrotic Syndrome (PNS) include massive proteinuria, hypoproteinemia, edema and/or hyperlipidemia. Of these, marked proteinuria is the core clinical manifestation, and its severity often parallels the degree of hyperlipidemia. More...

Serum α-L-Fucosidase Activity Measured for COVID-19 Infection

An unusual fucosylated LacdiNAc in the receptor-binding domains of the spike protein of COVID-19 has been observed. Reduced fucosylation was also found in a specific Fc domain of IgG antibodies in COVID-19 patients that enhanced the interactions with the activating FcγR, FcγRIIIa. More...
