Disease relevance of Serology

 

Psychiatry related information on Serology

  • Heavy alcohol consumption and cigarette smoking were found to be independently associated with a statistically significant two to threefold increase in risk of HCC after adjustment for hepatitis B and C serology [6].
 

High impact information on Serology

  • It is concluded that human SLE serology and some associated renal changes can be reproduced solely by PBL transferred from afflicted patients, and that SCID-human-SLE mice may serve as an in vivo laboratory model for the study of human SLE [7].
  • Using a mouse cell line transformed with and expressing a single HLA DR-alpha and DR-beta chain gene, we present evidence that the product of the DR-beta chain gene carries a supertypic determinant, BR3, previously defined by serology [8].
  • Indeed, the A alpha and A beta chains of the I-A antigens appear to exhibit normal behavior by the criteria of serology and two dimensional gel analysis [9].
  • METHODS : A meta-analysis of case-control studies with age- and sex-matched controls, which provided raw data on the infection rates with H. pylori and cagA strains of H. pylori as detected by serology or polymerase chain reaction DNA, was performed [10].
  • The cost of serology makes it more attractive compared with the urea breath test [11].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Serology

 

Biological context of Serology

 

Anatomical context of Serology

 

Associations of Serology with chemical compounds

  • Structure and serology of the native polysaccharide antigen of type Ia group B streptococcus [27].
  • Progeny virus resulting from transcript infection was phenotypically indistinguishable from the progenitor virus used to generate the original cDNA forms as judged by sucrose density gradient sedimentation, specific infectivity, plaque morphology, and serology [28].
  • We then review the diagnostic approaches to infections potentially due to the novel chlamydiae, especially focusing on the currently available PCR-based protocols, mammalian cell culture, the amoebal coculture system, and serology [29].
  • The results of this analysis suggest that the epitopes of the S. typhimurium LPS molecule that are recognized by the host are considerably more complex than has been previously indicated by classical serology [30].
  • The serology used was based on an acid glycine extract of H pylori [31].
 

Gene context of Serology

  • Nine of these pairs were also HLA-A and HLA-B matched by serology [32].
  • HLA-A and B antigens were typed by serology, whereas DNA based methods were used to define HLA-C gene groups, and HLA-DRB1 and DQB1 alleles [33].
  • The CTLp assay was most sensitive to HLA-A and HLA-B locus disparity detected by serology or IEF [34].
  • In most cases the target molecules were HLA-C antigens that had escaped detection by serology (e.g. Cw*1601, 1502 or 0702) [35].
  • Four other donor/recipient pairs were HLA-A,-B, and -DR identical by serology but allele mismatched at either DRB1 or DQB [36].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Serology

  • Archived liver and serum from six patients undergoing liver transplantation for non-A, non-B, non-C FLF with associated AA were analyzed for the presence of B19 DNA and anti-B19 serology [37].
  • Molecules secreted from these variants bear anti-GAT mu-chain and MOPC 21 L chain (as judged by serology and Southern blot studies), lack GAT binding activity and CGAT idiotype, and exhibit a "new" private idiotype (E8) [38].
  • Screening 3000 sera each from human and equine patients over the past 4 years by new enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) revealed that BDV-CICs indicate 10 times higher infection rates (up to 30% in controls, up to 100% in patients) than did previous serology [39].
  • All had gastric endoscopic ultrasonography and H pylori status assessment (histology, culture, polymerase chain reaction, and serology) [40].
  • The ultimate diagnosis is based on specific diagnostic tests which include serology, demonstration of C. burnetii in valvular material, isolation of C. burnetii from blood and tissue samples by cell-culture techniques as well as amplification and detection of the bacterial DNA by polymerase chain reaction [41].
