Project description:Whole genome sequencing of SYBARIS Aspergillus spp. known to be multi-drug resistant and difficult to treat. Aim of this experiment is to investigate the genetic basis of susceptibility to disease and elucidate molecular mechanisms of drug resistance in these strains.
Project description:We detected Emergomyces africanus, a thermally dimorphic fungus that causes an HIV-associated systemic mycosis, by PCR in 18 (30%) of 60 soil samples from a wide range of habitats in South Africa. Direct and indirect culture techniques were unsuccessful. Experimental intraperitoneal inoculation of conidia induced murine disease.
Project description:Primary objectives: The primary objective is to investigate circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) via deep sequencing for mutation detection and by whole genome sequencing for copy number analyses before start (baseline) with regorafenib and at defined time points during administration of regorafenib for treatment efficacy in colorectal cancer patients in terms of overall survival (OS).

Project description:The following CGH experiments were conducted on four sectors (S1-S4) from a single primary ductal carcinoma tumor (T17) using the Sector-Ploidy-Profiling (SPP) Approach. SPP involves macro-dissecting the tumor, flow-sorting nuclei by differences in total genomic DNA content and profiling the genome of the tumor subpopulations.
Project description:The following CGH experiments were conducted on six sectors (S1-S6) from a single primary ductal carcinoma tumor (T14) using the Sector-Ploidy-Profiling (SPP) Approach. SPP involves macro-dissecting the tumor, flow-sorting nuclei by differences in total genomic DNA content and profiling the genome of the tumor subpopulations.
Project description:The following CGH experiments were conducted on four sectors (S1-S4) from a single primary ductal carcinoma tumor (T20) using the Sector-Ploidy-Profiling (SPP) Approach. SPP involves macro-dissecting the tumor, flow-sorting nuclei by differences in total genomic DNA content and profiling the genome of the tumor subpopulations.
