The future of molecular epidemiology [PDF]
International Journal of Epidemiology, 1999 Subdomains of epidemiological activity classified according to techniques have been shorter-lived than those classified by the type of disease or exposure. Most of us feel comfortable with broad categories defined by disease group (such as ‘cancer epidemiology’) or by exposure (‘nutritional epidemiology’).

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Molecular epidemiology of leprosy: An update
Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2020 Molecular epidemiology investigations are notoriously challenging in the leprosy field mainly because the inherent characteristics of the disease as well as its yet uncultivated causative agents, Mycobacterium leprae and M. lepromatosis. Despite significant developments in understanding the biology of leprosy bacilli through genomic approaches, the ...

Cryptosporidiosis: an update in molecular epidemiology [PDF]
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2004 Molecular tools have been developed to detect and differentiate Cryptosporidium at the species/genotype and subtype levels. These tools have been increasingly used in the characterization of the transmission of Cryptosporidium spp. This review addresses the most recent developments in molecular epidemiology of cryptosporidiosis.The recent development ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Molecular epidemiology of the leprosy
Japanese journal of leprosy, 2004 Application of molecular biological techniques to the epidemiological study of leprosy is described. Studies of detecting Mycobacterium leprae DNA in samples of the nasal mucus are discussed in terms of the epidemiology and the significance of high prevalence.
