Cancer in the parasitic protozoans Trypanosoma brucei and Toxoplasma gondii.
Cancer is a general name for more than 100 malignant diseases. It is postulated that all cancers start from a single abnormal cell that grows out of control. Untreated cancers can cause serious consequences and deaths. Great progress has been made in cancer research that has significantly improved our knowledge and understanding of the nature and mechanisms of the disease, but the origins of ca...
متن کاملMethods for parasitic protozoans detection in the environmental samples.
The environmental route of transmission of many parasitic protozoa and their potential for producing large numbers of transmissive stages constitute persistent threats to public and veterinary health. Conventional and new immunological and molecular methods enable to assess the occurrence, prevalence, levels and sources of waterborne protozoa. Concentration, purification, and detection are the ...
متن کاملPnm-21: Human Parasitic Protozoans-Infection to Infertility
Background Protozoan parasitic diseases are endemic in many countries worldwide especially in developing countries, where infertility is a major burden. These infections can cause diminished or absent ability to conceive (infertility) due to impairment in male and female reproductive systems. MaterialsAndMethods Medline, PubMed, Scopus, Google scholar manuscripts were used to identify the most ...
متن کاملTranslation termination in human mitochondrial ribosomes.
Mitochondria are ubiquitous and essential organelles for all nucleated cells of higher eukaryotes. They contain their own genome [mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA)], and this autosomally replicating extranuclear DNA encodes a complement of genes whose products are required to couple oxidative phosphorylation. Sequencing of this human mtDNA more than 20 years ago revealed unusual features that included ...
متن کاملTakeover of host ribosomes by divergent IRES elements.
The ribosome is the macromolecular machinery in the host cell for which all viruses have to compete. Early in infection, the viral mRNAs have to compete with the host for both the ribosomes and for the limited pool of eukaryotic initiation factors that are needed to facilitate the recruitment of ribosomes to both viral and cellular mRNAs. To circumvent this competition, certain viruses have evo...
