ANALYSIS OF CRYPTOCOCCAL EXTRACELLULAR VESICLES: EXPERIMENTAL APPROACHES FOR STUDYING THEIR DIVERSITY AMONG MULTIPLE ISOLATES, KINETICS OF PRODUCTION, METHODS OF SEPARATION, AND DETECTION IN CULTURES OF TITAN CELLS

Analysis of Cryptococcal Extracellular Vesicles: Experimental Approaches for Studying Their Diversity Among Multiple Isolates, Kinetics of Production, Methods of Separation, and Detection in Cultures of Titan Cells

ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) produced by members of the Cryptococcus genus are associated with fundamental processes of fungal physiology and virulence.However, several questions about the properties of cryptococcal EVs remain unanswered, mostly because of technical limitations.We recently described a fast and efficient protocol of high-yi

Population-specific haplotype association of the postsynaptic density gene DLG4 with schizophrenia, in family-based association studies.

The post-synaptic density (PSD) of glutamatergic synapses harbors a multitude of proteins critical for maintaining synaptic dynamics.Alteration of protein expression levels in this matrix is a marked phenomenon of neuropsychiatric disorders including schizophrenia, where cognitive functions are impaired.To investigate the genetic relationship of ge
