Abstract Introduction Recent studies found that GOLGA8B plays an essential role in different cancers. However, the role GOLGA8B plays in the carcinogenesis and development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. This study explores the clinical significance and prospective mechanisms of GOLGA8B in HCC. Materials and methods The expression of GOLGA8B was detected in tissues of HCC and non-HCC controls. A real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis was performed to evaluate the mRNA expression of GOLGA8B. RNA-sequencing data and microarray chip data were obtained for further analysis. The role GOLGA8B plays in patients with HCC was also evaluated. An immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis was also performed to evaluate the protein expression of GOLGA8B. The different GOLGA8B expression resources, including mRNA and protein expression, were integrated by calculating standard mean difference (SMD) and summary of the receiver operator characteristic (sROC). Genes co-expressed GOLGA8B were predicted. Enrichment analyses including Gene ontology (GO) and biological pathway were performed to investigate the essential molecular mechanisms. Hub genes were screened out by a protein-protein interactions network. MicroRNAs which target GOLGA8B at a posttranscriptional level were also predicted. Results According to different resources, GOLGA8B manifested a higher expression in tissues of HCC than in non-HCC controls and exhibited clinical values for HCC. The RT-qPCR analysis revealed an increasing trend of GOLGA8B expression in HCC. GOLGA8B expresssion was significantly increased in RNA-sequencing and 7 of 13 microarray chip. IHC analysis also revealed significantly higher expression of GOLGA8B protein. Moreover, GOLGA8B expression was correlated with pathologic tumors and stages according to RNA-sequencing data and IHC analysis. The integrated SMD and sROC of different resources was 0.893 (P=0.004) and 0.79. A total 1303 co-expressed genes were gathered to perform enrichment analyses. The most significant biological pathways of co-expressed genes were spliceosome and mitogen-activated protein kinase signalling (MAPK). Four hub genes (SF3B1, HNRNPA2B1, HNRNPA1 and SRRM2) and five miRNAs (miR-369-3p, miR-203a, miR-374b-5p, miR-139-5p and miR-144-3p) were screened out. Conclusion GOLGA8B expression was increased in HCC and may serve as a novel target for HCC diagnosis and treatment.

In situ hybridization (ISH) with biotin-labeled probes is increasingly used in histology, histopathology and molecular biology, to detect genetic nucleic acid sequences of interest, such as viruses, genetic alterations and peptide-/protein-encoding messenger RNA (mRNA). In situ polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (PCR in situ hybridization = PISH) and the new in situ self-sustained sequence replication-based amplification (3SR) method even allow the detection of single copies of DNA or RNA in cytological and histological material. However, there is a number of considerable problems with the in situ PCR methods available today: False positives due to mis-priming of DNA breakdown products contained in several types of cells causing non-specific incorporation of label in direct methods, and re-diffusion artefacts of amplicons into previously negative cells have been observed. To avoid these problems, super-sensitive ISH procedures can be used, and it is well known that the sensitivity and outcome of these methods partially depend on the detection system used.

SummarySevere Glanzmann's thrombasthenia is relatively frequent in Iraqi-Jews and Arabs residing in Israel. We have recently described the mutations responsible for the disease in Iraqi-Jews – an 11 base pair deletion in exon 12 of the glycoprotein IIIa gene, and in Arabs – a 13 base pair deletion at the AG acceptor splice site of exon 4 on the glycoprotein IIb gene. In this communication we show that the Iraqi-Jewish mutation can be identified directly by polymerase chain reaction and gel electrophoresis. With specially designed oligonucleotide primers encompassing the mutation site, an 80 base pair segment amplified in healthy controls was clearly distinguished from the 69 base pair segment produced in patients. Patients from 11 unrelated Iraqi-Jewish families had the same mutation. The Arab mutation was identified by first amplifying a DNA segment consisting of 312 base pairs in controls and of 299 base pairs in patients, and then digestion by a restriction enzyme Stu-1, which recognizes a site that is absent in the mutant gene. In controls the 312 bp segment was digested into 235 and 77 bp fragments, while in patients there was no change in the size of the amplified 299 bp segment. The mutation was found in patients from 3 out of 5 unrelated Arab families. Both Iraqi-Jewish and Arab mutations were detectable in DNA extracted from blood and urine samples. The described simple methods of identifying the mutations should be useful for detection of the numerous potential carriers among the affected kindreds and for prenatal diagnosis using DNA extracted from chorionic villi samples.

Excessive presence of polysaccharides, polyphenol and secondary metabolites in banana plant affects the quality of DNA and it leads to difficult in isolating good quality of DNA. An optimized modified CTAB protocol for the isolation of high quality and quantity of DNA obtained from banana leaf tissues has been developed. In this protocol a slight increased salt (NaCl) concentration (2.0M) was used in the extraction buffer. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and Octanol were used for the removal of polyphenols and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) inhibitors. Proteins like various enzymes were degraded by Proteinase K and removed by centrifugation from plant extract during the isolation process resulting in pure genomic DNA, ready to use in downstream applications including PCR, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), ligation, restriction and sequencing. This protocol yielded a high molecular weight DNA isolated from polyphenols rich leaves of Musa spp which was free from contamination and colour. The average yields of total DNA from leaf ranged from 917.4 to 1860.9 ng/ìL. This modified CTAB protocol reported here is less time consuming 4-5h, reproducible and can be used for a broad spectrum of plant species which have polyphenol and polysaccharide compounds.
