Abstract: A method of detecting circulatory nucleic acids from a transplanted tissue in a transplant recipient, the method comprising: amplifying circulatory nucleic acids from a transplanted tissue in a blood sample from the transplant recipient, and detecting amplification of a copy number deletion (CND) polymorphism from the transplanted tissue, and related methods for determining the status of a donor tissue transplanted into a recipient.

Abstract: An pet doghouse is configured as provided as a kit that may be transported to a user for assembly on site. The dog house is an assemble of components that are easily transported in a compact and efficient form. Rigid planar panels that have substantial insulating properties are cojoined by corner connectors that provide simple assembly. The corner connectors include multiple flange elements that extend in perpendicular directions to receive and retain adjoining wall panel sections.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to tissue, including organ, transplantation. Taught herein is a genetic-based diagnostic assay to ascertain the status of a tissue transplantation procedure in a recipient based on a characterization of circulating or other cell free nucleic acid material. The instant disclosure enables kits, primers and protocols for ascertaining the status of a transplantation procedure.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a method for identifying or distinguishing one type of cell from other cells within a population of cells. The present invention further provides the detection, monitoring and isolation of sub-populations cell types within a population of cells including a biological entity comprising such cell types. Kits, diagnostic agents and panels of nucleic acid probes for identifying and distinguishing cell types also form part of the present invention. The detection of particular cell types is based upon the use of a labelled probe that hybridizes to chromosomal DNA at the flanking sequences of a deletion. Alternatively two probes with distinguishable reporter molecules are used wherein only one probe is capable of hybridizing to chromosomal DNA in one cell type whereas both are capable of hybridizing to chromosomal DNA in another cell type. The methods are useful in the identification of cells with copy number variations, chromosomal deletions, additions or aberrations.

Abstract: A new pharmaceutical compound for treating central nervous disorders, the compound comprising a therapeutically effective amount of valproic acid or pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof covalently bonded to myo-inositol. The invention also provides a composition, method for treating a patient and a method for obtaining the compound.

Abstract: It relates to an Association of chemical agents, with intended pharmacological action to prevent the risk of infarction and brain hemorrhage caused by the development of the atherosclerotic process and of the homocysteinemia resulting from ageing. It is of the utmost importance to prevent the increase of endogenous homocysteine. High levels of homocysteine in blood, caused by genetical error and further biologic circumstances impart damaging consequences upon the human organism (occlusion of blood vessels, ocular modifications, osteoporosis and nervous system).
