Infectious agents and human malignancies.
Cancer has periodically been proposed as transmissible disease in animals and humans, and specific pathogens have long been searched for. Several biomolecular studies, fundamental in understanding cancer pathogenesis, have identified mechanisms directly/indirectly involved in pathogens-related cancer, including 1) oncogene transduction, with introduction of exogenous oncogenic genes; 2) activat...
متن کاملHuman use of antimicrobial agents.
Antibiotics have increased life expectancy. Self-medication, even over the Internet, occurs in many countries where antibiotics are classified as prescription-only medicines. Collateral damage caused by antibiotic use includes resistance, which could be reduced if the inappropriate use of antibiotics that takes place globally, especially in low-income countries, could be prevented. Surveillance...
متن کاملAn Introduction to The Royan Human Ovarian Tissue Bank
From December 2000 until 2010, the researchers at Royan Institute conducted a wide range of investigations on ovarian tissue cryopreservation with the intent to provide fertility preservation to cancer patients that were considered to be candidates for these services. In 2010, Royan Institute established the Royan Human Ovarian Tissue Bank as a subgroup of the Embryology Department. Since its i...
متن کاملThe Sensitivity of Massively Parallel Sequencing for Detecting Candidate Infectious Agents Associated with Human Tissue
Massively parallel sequencing technology now provides the opportunity to sample the transcriptome of a given tissue comprehensively. Transcripts at only a few copies per cell are readily detectable, allowing the discovery of low abundance viral and bacterial transcripts in human tissue samples. Here we describe an approach for mining large sequence data sets for the presence of microbial sequen...
متن کاملThe Effect of Climate Changes on human Bacterial infectious diseases
A growing body of documents shows that rising average global temperatures can be one of several causes of disease emergence and reemergence among human and animal populations. In this regard, climate mostly affects diseases caused by pathogens that spend part of their lifecycle outside of the host, exposed to the environment like water-borne diseases, food-borne pathogens, and vector-borne zoon...
