Three PCR methods based on the GB virus-C/ hepatitis G virus (GBV-C/HGV) 5ΠUTR and NS3 genomic region were used for the detection of GBV-C/HGV RNA in serum of 62 patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Ten of 62 (16%) patients were found to have GBV-C/ HGV RNA, which was confirmed b
GBV-C might be a causative agent of fulminant hepatitis of unknown etiology. Fulminant hepatitis is an indication for liver transplantation. However, in Japan, because of the legal difficulties associated with cadaveric donation, patients with fulminant hepatitis are still treated by plasmapheresis
The combination of reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction is a very powerful tool for the detection of hepatitis C virus RNA in sera of patients with hepatitis C virus infection. However, when studying the presence of this virus in tissue using polymerase chain reaction, it may be diffi
The identification of specific tumor mRNA markers by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction might be a valuable diagnostic adjunct for the detection of breast cancer metastases in axillary sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs). In this study we have compared the diagnostic accuracy of an extensive hi
We studied whether detection of messenger-RNA (mRNA) for the beta-subunit of chorionic gonadotropin (CGβ€) in urinary cells from bladder cancer patients could be used as a marker of disease activity. Sixty-eight urine samples from patients under follow-up for bladder cancer and 23 samples from patien
