Implications of Tobacco Use on Pathogen‐Driven Diseases: A Public Health and Policy Perspective
ABSTRACT The tobacco epidemic remains one of the most significant global public health challenges, responsible for over 8 million deaths annually, with a substantial portion occurring among non‐smokers exposed to second‐hand smoke. While cigarette smoking remains the most prevalent form of tobacco use worldwide, the rise of electronic nicotine delivery

High‐throughput microfluidic real‐time PCR as a promising tool in disease ecology
This work highlights the diversity of disease ecology questions Htrt PCR could contribute to addressing in a given host–pathogen ecosystem. This tool could be used to answer a broad set of basic and applied questions in animal ecology, notably by providing a way to address issues involving communities of hosts and communities of pathogens.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...
