"The mean Ct values for these five miRNAs were calculated excluding outliers (i.e. replicates with Ct values differing by more than one cycle from the median). In addition if CtU6ave and CtU48ave each did not occur within 32 cycles the assay was repeated. Samples with low U6 or U48 snRNA levels were not excluded from d...

"Since activation of the adaptive T cell response previously has been demonstrated to peak around day 10“14 post vaccination with Ad-Ii-GP or Ad-GP it was somewhat unexpected to find that previous vaccination did not cause any difference in gene expression under these conditions [12] [21]. However this probably reflect...

"Then we need to calculate a tail probability for a heterogeneous Bernoulli process. For the calculation for gene sets with coordinate down-regulated differential expression we need to focus on the combination of different components with (j1 = 2 j2 = 2 . . . jK = 2). Then we need to change the formulas for uSi and CE...

" PAX6 expression was recently found in tumors suggesting an oncogenic role [9]. PAX6 is frequently expressed in retinoblastoma pancreatic tumors and intestinal tumors [6] [10] [11]. PAX6 is also highly expressed in brain and breast cancer cell lines [9]. In pancreatic carcinoma cell lines the inhibition of PAX6 expres...

"Background Complement receptor 1 (CR1) the receptor for C3b/C4b complement peptides plays a crucial role in carcinogenesis. However the association of genetic variants of CR1 with susceptibility to lung cancer remains unexplored. Methods This case-control study included 470 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients ...

All patients underwent a pretreatment diagnostic contrast enhanced CT (CE-CT) followed by a 4D-CT for treatment simulation. We used the average (average-CT) and expiratory (T50-CT) images from the 4D-CT along with the ...
