Plasmid Land: The Plasmid Cloning Game

When the average person asks, “What is a plasmid?” we sometimes struggle to give them a basic answer. Plasmids are circular fragments of double-stranded DNA that can replicate independen...

Intraorbital corticosteroid injection for orbital reactive lymphoid hyperplasia

Intraorbital corticosteroid injection for orbital reactive lymphoid hyperplasia Eye advance online publication, January 25 2013. doi:10.1038/eye.2012.288 Authors: N H Andrew, D Kearney...

Prebiotically plausible oligoribonucleotide ligation facilitated by chemoselective acetylation

One theory for the abiogenesis of RNA involves ligation of shorter oligomers that are observed after dry-state condensation of mononucleotides. Here, the chemo- and regioselective acetylation of (olig...

Delay of surgical PDA closure may be best approach for preterm infants

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Two new reports advise against neonatal ligation of a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Avoiding ligation, or delaying it, led to better outcomes in both studies, which w...

Acute Variceal Bleeding: Ligation and Vasoconstrictor vs PPI

This new study compares 2 different treatment options for acute esophageal variceal bleeding. Does ligation and vasoconstriction work better than PPIs? Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology

A ligation-independent cloning technique for high-throughput assembly of transcription activator–like effector genes

A library of DNA constructs enables high-throughput, ligation-free production of transcription activator–like effector (TALE) genes for genetic engineering.

Research makes connetion between tubal ligation and increase in cervical cancer rates

(Women & Infants Hospital) Women who have a tubal ligation -- the surgical tying or severing of fallopian tubes to prohibit pregnancy -- have less frequent Pap smears, which puts them at an increased...

Connection Found Between Tubal Ligation And Cervical Cancer

Women who have a tubal ligation - the surgical tying or severing of fallopian tubes to prohibit pregnancy - have less frequent Pap smears, which puts them at an increased risk for cervical cancer, acc...

CD99 ligation upregulates HSP70 on acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells and concomitantly increases NK cytotoxicity

Intraorbital foreign body.

INTRODUCTION: Perforative intraorbital injuries can be potentially serious, and management depends on the type of projectile and its intraorbital trajectory. Medical imaging is an imperative part of t...

A Case of Delayed Oculocardiac Reflex Induced by an Intraorbital Foreign Body.

A 56-year-old male presented with a history of left periorbital pain, nausea, vomiting, dyspnea, sweating, and pallor. His left eye was injured by a bomb explosion approximately 40 years ago. Eviscera...

Native chemical ligation at glutamine.

The desulfurization reaction introduced by Yan and Dawson as a postnative chemical ligation step greatly expanded the scope of ligation chemistry beyond Xaa-Cys (Xaa is any amino acid) by making ligat...

Endoscopic transnasal intraorbital surgery: our experience with 16 cases.

The objective of the study is to present our multicentric experience on intraorbital lesions managed by means of an endonasal endoscopic approach. The study design used was multi-institutional retrosp...

Intraorbital wooden foreign body undetected on CT.

We present the case of an orbital fracture and a wooden foreign body found during surgery. The patient had undergone a pre-operative computed tomography scan but the foreign body had not been seen on...
