15 results about "Paraplegia" patented technology

Paraplegia is an impairment in motor or sensory function of the lower extremities. The word comes from Ionic Greek παραπληγίη) "half-stricken". It is usually caused by spinal cord injury or a congenital condition that affects the neural (brain) elements of the spinal canal. The area of the spinal canal that is affected in paraplegia is either the thoracic, lumbar, or sacral regions. If four limbs are affected by paralysis, tetraplegia or quadriplegia is the correct term. If only one limb is affected, the correct term is monoplegia. Spastic paraplegia is a form of paraplegia defined by spasticity of the affected muscles, rather than flaccid paralysis.

PendingCN122319249AGenomicsRetinitis pigmentosa syndrome
Compositions and methods for detecting structural variations (SVs) in target genes or for genetic mapping of movable transposable elements are disclosed, the target genes relating to disease pathologies commonly found in large Mendelian genomics projects, and the movable transposable elements relating to genetic diseases, cancer, and aging. The method comprises: (i) contacting a sample containing genomic DNA with a DNA endonuclease for an effective amount of time to cleave the genomic DNA into fragments, the genomic DNA being uncrosslinked; (ii) subjecting the fragments obtained from step (b) to a DNA ligase to obtain circularized DNA; (iii) subjecting the circularized DNA to reverse PCR amplification containing a reverse primer, wherein the reverse primer is designed to match a expected wild-type sequence near a suspected mutant locus in the gene; and (iv) sequencing the amplified products. Exemplary conditions include Bardet-Biedel syndrome; severe upper and lower limb defects; retinitis pigmentosa; syndromic microcephaly; spastic paraplegia; and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome.
