Transcriptome and proteome analyses reveal divergent adaptive strategies in nasopharyngeal epithelial cells and nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells under ultra‐low background radiation

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that the ultra‐low background radiation environment in deep underground laboratories significantly inhibits the proliferation of both normal nasopharyngeal epithelial cells (HNEPC) and nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells (HNE‐1) cells, with malignant cells exhibiting higher sensitivity.

The Clinical Significance of Nasopharyngeal Carriages in Immunocompromised Children as Assessed

The Korean Journal of Hematology, 2009
Background: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of asymptomatic nasopharyngeal carriages in immunocompromized children by using a multiplex reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (mRT-PCR) assay kit. Methods: We obtained clinical samples by nasopharyngeal swabs from 42 patients with underlying immune deficiency from May 20 ...

Effect of exercise‐related nasopharyngeal disorders on upper airway function in racehorses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Exercise‐related upper respiratory tract (URT) disorders are frequently diagnosed in racehorses. Treatment recommendations are routinely based on subjective assessment of clinical evaluation and exercising endoscopy findings. Objectives To objectively investigate how palatal instability (PI), intermittent dorsal displacement of the ...

Genetic variants of EcPV2 E6 and E7 in equine genital and oronasal squamous cell carcinoma

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Since its discovery in 2008, equine papillomavirus type 2 (EcPV2) has been detected in up to 100% of equine genital and up to 40% of equine oronasal squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). Preliminary sequence data point to the existence of EcPV2 E6 and E7 oncogene variants compared to the British reference sequence from 2008.
