After specific screening, the most positive clones were subjected to Sanger sequencing for further characterization. In the phage-ELSIA assay, three wells of PBS (A1–A3) were used as blank control, and three wells of no-coating PCSK9 antigen (H10–H12) were used as the negative control. ...
The accumulation of misfolded proteins, encoded by genetic variants of functional genes leads to Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) stress, which is a critical consequence in human disorders such as familial hypercholesterolemia, cardiovascular and hepatic disea
Reliable objective approaches for the detection and characterization of sleep problems may turn out to be relevant for clinical screening of sleep. The values from the commercially available actigraphy processing software have usually been developed in healthy subjects with regular sleep patterns and are ...
