RNAi therapeutics: an update on delivery.
RNA interference (RNAi) has rapidly advanced from a laboratory observation into a major area of research within biology and medicine. RNAi is triggered by short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) of between 19 and 21 nucleotides in length, which induces the targeted cleavage of mRNA with sequences of homology to the siRNA. Because of its high degree of specificity and efficacy, the potential for RNAi-ba...

Over time and with proper oversight, human gene therapy might become an effective weapon in modern medicine's arsenal to help fight diseases such as cancer, acqui...
متن کاملSporotrichosis: an update on epidemiology, etiopathogenesis, laboratory and clinical therapeutics*
In the late 90's there was a change in both the route of transmission and the people at risk for sporotrichosis. This zoonotic cat-man alternative transmission route elicited changes in strategies to control the epidemic. There was a progressive increase in the number of cases involving especially children and the elderly. In addition to becoming hyperendemic, uncommon clinical pictures like im...
متن کاملUpdate on Familial Hypercholesterolemia: Diagnosis, Cardiovascular Risk, and Novel Therapeutics
In recent studies, the reported prevalence of heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) has been higher than in previous reports. Although cascade genetic screening is a good option for efficient identification of affected patients, diagnosis using only clinical criteria is more common in real clinical practice. Cardiovascular risk is much higher in FH patients due to longstanding low den...
