Majority of transferred mosaic embryos developed healthy live births revealed by a preclinical study using embryonic morphology assessment and noninvasive PGT-A on cell-free DNA in blastocoel fluid
This preclinical study aimed to evaluate whether using transferred mosaic embryos (primarily selected by embryonic morphology assessment (EMA) and compared by the noninvasive preimplantation genetic testing fo...

Extracellular Cl− regulates human SO4 2−/anion exchanger SLC26A1 by altering pH sensitivity of anion transport
Genetic deficiency of the SLC26A1 anion exchanger in mice is known to be associated with hyposulfatemia and hyperoxaluria with nephrolithiasis, but many aspects of human SLC26A1 function remain to be explored....

Unique chromosome identification and sequence-specific structural analysis with short PNA oligomers
We have extended our earlier work to show that individual 14–20mer peptide nucleic acid probes directed against interspersed α-satellite sequences can specifically identify chromosomes. Peptide nucleic acid (...
