Re"evolutionary" regenerative medicine.
THE POTENTIAL TO REGENERATE DAMAGED LIMBS AND hearts seems the subject of science fiction, but newts and zebrafish do it all the time. What can scientists learn from these simple creatures? Why have mammals not retained this remarkably useful property in the course of evolution? Can an evolutionary perspective on the mechanisms used by “lowly” organisms inform the approach to human tissue regen...
متن کاملEmpirical evolutionary medicine
Medicine and evolutionary biology have crossed path several times since the publication of On the Origins of Species but the “new science of Darwinian medicine” dates back only to the early 1990s (Nesse & Williams, 1994). For psychiatrist Randolph Nesse and evolutionary biologist George C. Williams, the founders of Darwinian medicine, “there is no branch of medicine that cannot benefit substant...
متن کاملPrecision medicine, technologies, and molecular diagnostics
Introduction: Genetics, cellular and molecular medicines are cutting-edge sciences and technologies that play an important role in improving human health and quality of life. In addition, medical and biological sciences have clearly shown that the onset of diseases differs from person to person due to their different genetic profiles and variations in molecular basis. Therefore, it is feasible ...

a little bit more detail. He started with the proposition that in the next 25 years there would be a change in medical research which will take investigation from 'whole patient physiology' to the analysis of diseases at the cellular and molecular level. In the mid-1970s some quite extraordinary things happened, techniques became available which made it possible to look at human genes in detail...
متن کاملPreventive Evolutionary Medicine of Cancers
Evolutionary theory predicts that once an individual reaches an age of sufficiently low Darwinian fitness, (s)he will have reduced chances of keeping cancerous lesions in check. While we clearly need to better understand the emergence of precursor states and early malignancies as well as their mitigation by the microenvironment and tissue architecture, we argue that lifestyle changes and preven...
