One is a simple binding assay, in which the ligand (usually radiolabeled) is added to a hemogenate of the tissue-a number of washes are done, in the presence of cold ligand, in order to retain only that ligand that has bound with high affinity.\nThe others are all protein-based.  Western blotting with specific antibodies, immunohistochemistry to determine the presence and cellular localization.  RT-PCR or Northern blotting will tell you if the mRNA is present, but not if the receptor protein itself it there.

this antibody detects an ~67 kDa protein corresponding to the expected molecular mass of estrogen receptor (ER) on SDS-PAGE immunoblots. This antibody recognizes native estrogen receptor in the activated 4S or inactive 8S oligomeric state, with or without ligand binding. The antibody also recognizes a smaller molecular weight protein (~55 kDa) believed to be the major proteolytic fragment of the estrogen receptor alpha protein\n\nhard question even harder answer good luck!

centrifuge, microscope, iodine stain. A check for O&P is very insensitive. Occult blood checked with test pad.

There is a blood test that is calles CA-125. It does not detect lung cancer per say, but cancer in general.

I'm sure you're aware that a leukemoid reaction, which is simply a physiological response secondary to stress/infection is not the same as leukemia, which is a primary blood malignancy. If you do a leukocyte alkaline phosphatase (LAP) stain, you'll find that the former is usually associated with a high LAP score, whereas the latter is low.\n\nIn a clinical setting, you could also be able to come to a diagnosis based on the context (e.g., if the patient has hemorrhage, infection, is on steroids, etc., it is likely that it is a leukemoid reaction).

Punnett squares are based purely on chance and DO NOT reflect the true blood type. \n\nIf this is a real life situation, why don't you just ask him?\n\nJust checked your additional details. You can always ask your family doctor and they can run a simple blood test to find out. Trust me, you don't want to guess using Punnett squares.

Good luck to you. My husband had a biopsy yesterday and we're supposed to get the results sometime tonight.

I know it is hard, but take a deep breath.\n\nIf they are not finding anything on scans, that is good news. \n\nThe CA marker does not confirm anything.  A high result like yours can also be caused by an infection.  Benign conditions which can elevate CA 125 include infections of the lining of the abdomen and chest (peritonitis and pleuritis), menstruation, pregnancy, endometriosis, and liver disease. Benign tumors of the ovaries can also cause an abnormal test result. Because CA-125 can be high in many normal or benign conditions it is not useful as a screening test in large populations.\n\nI think if something were malignant, it would be a higher result - over 60.\n\nHang in there, if anything is wrong, they will find it and fix it!!!

go to the nearest store buy a test...  see a doctor for confirmation

every blOod work test is different.  Go to WEBMd, they have lots of links to instruct you.  I use an alternate, or blind web address, so that the insurance companies can't connect my inquiries to future applications for life, or health insurance.  AND THEY DO

The Landsteiner system works like this, there are A and B antigens. Blood group AB means anyone who has this group (not many do, but I'm one!) has both anti A and anti B on the surface of the red blood cells, but neither in the serum.\nGroup A will have anti A on the red blood cells and anti B in the serum, whereas group B will have anti B on the red blood cells and anti A in the serum. \nBlood group O (usually the commonest) has no antigens on the red blood cells , but both anti A and anti B in the serum.\nYou may have heard of rhesus negative and positive? That refers to the D antigen and there are Cs and Es and loads of other ways to group blood, but the ABO Landsteiner system along with anti D are the most relevant and best known.\n(hopes she's remembered her stuff from the path labs donkey's years ago!)

Its actually a collection of blood disorders which used to be called "preleukemia"-following is from Wikipedia\n\n\nIn 1974 and 1975 a group of pathologists from France, the United States, and Britain met and deliberated and derived the first widely used classification of these diseases. This French-American-British (FAB) classification was published in 1976 and revised in 1982. Cases were classified into 5 categories: (ICD-O codes are provided where available)\n\n(M9980/3) Refractory anemia (RA) - characterized by less than 5% primitive blood cells (myeloblasts) in the bone marrow and pathological abnormalities primarily seen in red cell precursors; \n(M9982/3) Refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts (RARS) - also characterized by less than 5% myeloblasts in the bone marrow, but distinguished by the presence of 15% or greater red cell precursors in the marrow being abnormal iron-stuffed cells called "ringed sideroblasts"; \n(M9983/3) Refractory anemia with excess blasts (RAEB) - characterized by 5-19% myeloblasts in the marrow; \n(M9984/3) Refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation (RAEB-T) - characterized by 20-29% myeloblasts in the marrow (30% blasts is defined as acute myeloid leukemia); \n(M9945/3) Chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (CMML) - not to be confused with chronic myelogenous leukemia or CML - characterized by less than 20% myeloblasts in the bone marrow and greater than 1000 * 109/uL monocytes (a type of white blood cell) circulating in the peripheral blood.
