Preliminary study to identify the factors of the infection of Opisthorchis viverrin [PDF]
ラオス中・南部および東北タイを流行地とするタイ肝吸虫Opisthorchis viverrini は、生魚を摂取することで感染する。2006 年2 月にラハナム地域において、タイ肝吸虫感染のリスクを検討するための予備調査として生魚の摂取に関する聞き取り調査を実施した。面接法により、ラハナム地域に居住する20 歳~ 40 歳の女性74 名を対象に、生魚の摂取経験の有無、子どもに生魚を摂取させた経験の有無などを質問した。その結果、対象者の68%が生魚の摂取経験があることが分かった。また6 名が ...

Evolutionary View of Liver Pathology
ABSTRACT Evolutionary medicine emerged in the late twentieth century, integrating principles of natural selection and adaptation with the health sciences. Today, with a rapidly widening gap between the biology of Homo sapiens and its environment, maladaptation or maladaptive disorders can be detected in almost all diseases, including liver dysfunction.

A renaissance of microRNAs as taxonomic and phylogenetic markers in animals
Abstract Molecular markers for tracing animal sample origins and compositions are critical for applications such as parasite detection, contamination screening, and sample authentication. Among these, microRNAs have emerged as promising candidates due to their deep conservation, near‐hierarchical evolution, and stability.

Sulfated galactans from red seaweed Gracilaria fisheri target epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and inhibit cholangiocarcinoma cells (CCA) proliferation [PDF]
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is increasing in incidence worldwide and is resistant to chemotherapeutic agents, making treatment of CCA a major challenge. Previous studies reported that natural sulfated polysaccharides (SPs) disrupted growth factor receptor ...
