Photodynamic therapy of cancer‐associated infections
Pathogens can be involved in tumor initiation, promotion and progression through different mechanisms, and their treatment can prevent new cancer cases, improve outcomes, and revert poor‐prognostic phenotypes. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) successfully treats different types of cancers and infections, and, therefore, has a unique potential to address ...

Molecular and Biochemical Characterization of Opisthorchis viverrini Calreticulin [PDF]
Calreticulin (CALR), a multifunctional protein thoroughly researched in mammals, comprises N-, P-, and C-domain and has roles in calcium homeostasis, chaperoning, clearance of apoptotic cells, cell adhesion, and also angiogenesis. In this study, the spatial and temporal expression patterns of the Opisthorchis viverrini CALR gene were analyzed, and ...

Distinct miRNA signatures associate with subtypes of cholangiocarcinoma from infection with the tumourigenic liver fluke Opisthorchis viverrini [PDF]
Background & Aims: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a significant public health problem in East Asia, where it is strongly associated with chronic infection by the food-borne parasite Opisthorchis viverrini (OV). We report the first comprehensive
