Invasive fungal infections are an increasingly important cause of human morbidity and mortality.We generated a next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based method designed to detect a wide range of fungi and applied it to analysis of the fungal microbiome (mycobiome) of the lung during fungal infection.Internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) amplicon sequen
Linkage mapping is one of the PROMOCODE most commonly used methods to identify genetic loci that determine a trait.However, the loci identified by linkage mapping may contain hundreds of candidate genes and require a time-consuming and labor-intensive fine mapping process to find the causal gene controlling the trait.With the availability of a rich
BACKGROUND: We assessed the utility of the dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor NVP-BEZ235 (BEZ235) as single agent therapy and in combination with conventional chemotherapy for thyroid cancer.METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Eight cell lines from four types of thyroid cancer (papillary, follicular, anaplastic, medullary) were studied.The cytotoxicity of BEZ235
