I-40: Male Genome Programming, Infertility and Cancer
Background: During male germ cells differentiation, genomewide re-organizations and highly specific programming of the male genome occur. These changes not only include the large-scale meiotic shuffling of genes, taking place in spermatocytes, but also a complete “re-packaging” of the male genome in post meiotic cells, leading to a highly compacted nucleo-protamine structure in the mature sperm...
متن کاملhuman, weapon and war
the history of mankind is intertwined with war. what distinguishes man from other creatures is his ability to dominate and capture the nature; he accomplishes this though using his rationale and making tools which set the ground for production and accumulation of capital. to protect his benefits and accomplish his desire for dominance, man creates weapons which become more developed parallel to...
متن کاملDomesticating Cancer: An Evolutionary Strategy in the War on Cancer
Since cancer shares the same molecular machinery as the host, most therapeutic interventions that aim to target cancer would inadvertently also adversely affect the host. In addition, cancer continuously evolves, streamlining its host-derived genome for a new single-celled existence. In particular, short-term clinical success observed with most antineoplastic therapies directly relate to the fa...
متن کاملWar against mastitis: Current concepts on controlling bovine mastitis pathogens
Mastitis, inflammation of the mammary gland, is one of the most costly and complex diseases of the dairy industry. The economic consequences of bovine mastitis are related to treatment, production losses, culling and changes in milk quality. These factors have a substantial impact on the farm business. The complexity is reflected in the numerous causative pathogens, the variety and magnitude of...
متن کاملidentification and discovery of novel micrornas in the human genome
although more than 98% of the human genome is transcribed, most of these transcripts are not translated into proteins. rather, they are considered as non-coding rnas. micrornas (mirnas) are very short non-coding rnas approximately 22 nucleotides in length which regulate many key processes of cells such as growth, proliferation, differentiation, cell cycle, apoptosis (programmed cell death) and ...
