Illumina-based 16S rRNA V3 amplicon sequencing of total DNA obtained from soft tissue lesions (joint granulomas) of the endangered Houston toad (Anaxyrus houstonensis) demonstrated that many reads represented members of the actinobacterial Mycobacterium chelonae-abscessus complex. In order to quantify members of this complex in those lesions, we designed three complex-specific primer set/probe combinations (sets I, II and III) targeting variable regions on the 23S rRNA gene for SybrGreen- and Taqman-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Both SybrGreen- and Taqman-based analyses specifically detected members of the M. chelonae-abscessus complex in lesion samples, with numbers between 104 and 107 cells per 100-mg sample. Values within individual samples were generally comparable between SybrGreen- and Taqman-based detection methods and between all primer set/probe combinations, except for SybrGreen-based analyses of a few samples analyzed with primer set I that used a less specific forward primer. The development of highly specific detection and quantification methods for members of the M. chelonae-abscessus complex in lesion samples can enable group specific tracking of these organisms, particularly in captive or stewardship settings where source and transmission monitoring are valuable tools to husbandry and species conservation. 相似文献

Currarino syndrome (CS) is a clinically variable disorder characterized by anorectal, sacral and presacral anomalies. It is associated with loss-of-function mutations in the motor neuron and pancreas homeobox 1 (MNX1) gene. Inheritance is autosomal dominant, expression variable and penetrance incomplete. We describe a Norwegian family with typical CS in which a heterozygous deletion removes the entire MNX1 gene but no other known genes. We also report MNX1 mutations in three other Norwegian families and confirm that the GCC12 repeat (c.373_375[12]) is a normal allelic variant. This work underscores the importance of dosage analysis of MNX1 when Sanger sequencing is negative. 相似文献

The outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus rapidly altered radiotherapy service delivery around the world.AimThe main objective of this study was to assess the impact of precautionary measures implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic on the performance of a radiation oncology departments and on mitigation the risk of COVID-19 contagion between and among patients and staff.MethodsThe study period was from March 15 until May 22, 2020. We evaluated total number of patients irradiated and those who initiated treatments, taking into account tumours localisations. We assessed the relationship of potential risk of contagion with patients’ domiciles locations in regions with high number of COVID19 case.Results and conclusionsThe number of patients treated with radiotherapy during the study period decreased due to precautionary measures. After five weeks, the number of radiotherapy treatments began to increase. Just over half of the radiotherapy patients (53.5%) treated at the GPCC reside in the city of Poznan or in one of the ten surrounding counties where COVID19 incidence was low and reached at the end of the study period cumulative number of cases n = 204. The precautionary measures were effective qRT-PCR tests were performed in 1545 individuals (patients and hospital staff) revealing four staff members and none patient with a positive PCR result. Immunoglobulin testing was performed in 1132 individuals (patients and hospital staff). A total of 63 individuals were positive for antibodies. 相似文献

Laboratory microcosms were used to assess the impact of arsenic (As) contamination on agricultural soil bacterial activity focusing free-living nitrogen fixers for three months. Periodically collected microcosm samples were analyzed by RT–qPCR following extraction of total RNA and cDNA preparation for assessing the metabolically active bacterial population. RT–qPCR data showed the gradual increase of 16S rRNA and nifH gene expression, and relative activity of diazotrophs in the enriched soil bacterial consortia under short time As exposure up to 20 ppm and 10 ppm, respectively. A similar trend of these variables was also noticed but up to 1 ppm As when incubating the bulk soil for the same duration. Reduced bacterial activity was noticed at higher concentration of As although in short time exposure. Extending the As exposure time, the bacterial activities in both enriched consortia and bulk soil were decreased. Although, the relative activity of diazotrophs in enriched consortia was increased in presence of 10 ppm As, the same was decreased in bulk soil when exposed to >1 ppm As for long time indicating susceptibility of nitrogen fixer to As contamination in soil. PCA of the data obtained also indicated a negative correlation between As concentrations and diazotrophic activity. 相似文献
