Methodology for Detecting Trace Amounts of Microchimeric DNA from Peripheral Murine White Blood Cells by Real-Time PCR by Artlett Carol M., Dito C. Gennaro, Christner Paul J.

“…<p>Real-time PCR methodology can successfully quantitate microchimeric cell populations at a concentration of 100 microchimeric cells/100,000 host cells; however, it has not been successful in quantitating DNA from trace numbers of microchimeric white blood cells which we reported are present in murine peripheral blood at a concentration as low as 2/100,000 host cells. …”

The role of infection in morphea disease by Fatemeh Farhangdoost

“…Morphea is a multifactorial process that its main underlying cause is not completely known but the most common causes related to the genesis of morphea including trauma, radiation, medications, infection, autoimmunity and microchimerism. In this paper, we review the literature about the role of infection in the genesis of morphea.…”
