Transmission Properties of Pathogenic Protein Agents in Human Prion Disease and Neurodegenerative Diseases-Juniper Publishers


Prion diseases are transmitted by the protein agent that can transfer its distinct misfolded structure to its normal counterparts and form insoluble aggregates in the nervous system. Recent findings led to the emergence of the prion paradigm of the protein agents that underlie neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD). This review will discuss current knowledge concerning both human prion diseases and prion-like transmission properties related to neurodegenerative diseases.

Epidemiological features of papillary carcinoma of the breast in a developing community-Juniper publishers

Epidemiological features of papillary carcinoma of thebreast in a developing community by Wilson IB Onuigbo in Juniper Publishers in InternationalJournal of Cell Science & Molecular Biology A separate challenge in characterizing papillary carcinoma of the breast is related to the fact that a large proportion of the literature consists of individual case reports. The scarcity of information was remedied from certain centers. The present paper seeks, therefore, to add materials obtained from a histopathology data pool covering the Ibo or Igbo Ethnic Group domiciled in a developing community in Nigeria. https://juniperpublishers.com/ijcsmb/IJCSMB.MS.ID.555561.php For more Open access journals please click on JuniperPublishers :  https://juniperpublishers.com/ For more articles please click on International Journal ofCell Science & Molecular Biology :  https://juniperpublishers.com/ijcsmb/index.php

Undifferentiated Carcinoma of the Larynx in a Developing Community- Juniper Publishers

Image
Juniper Publishers- Journal of cell science Abstract A rare form of laryngeal carcinoma is the undifferentiated form. There are but a few cases in the literature. Therefore, two cases from among the Ibos of South Eastern Nigeria are deemed to be worthy of documentation. Keywords: Larynx; Undifferentiated carcinoma; Ibos; Males; Rarity Introduction A search of the Internet revealed but a few reports on the larynx exhibiting undifferentiated carcinoma. From Turkey [1], a 7-year-old male patient was reported to have “Undifferentiated laryngeal carcinoma with pagetoid spread.” From both France [2] and India [3], the authors went as far as to differentiate undifferentiated carcinoma of “nasopharyingeal type.” In this context, another differentiation was mooted in USA as the “small cell” type [4]. Therefore, the author presents two cases on the strength of carcinomas which were “undifferentiated,” the patients being of the Ibo ethnic group [5]. Case Report 1. NA, a 78-year-...

New Vision of New Sources- Juniper Publishers

Juniper Publishers- Journal of cell science Fresh, clean food is important to good nutrition. Preventing food from becoming contaminated with food poisoning bacteria reduces losses and illnesses. Bacteria in food can reduce the food's nutrient value and also cause disease. Bacteria that cause disease are called pathogenic bacteria. Bacteria can cause diseases in humans, in other animals, and also in plants. Some bacteria can only make one particular host ill; others cause trouble in a number of hosts, depending on the host specificity of the bacteria. The diseases caused by bacteria include food poisoning, tooth ache anthrax, even certain forms of cancer. Disease causing (or pathogenic) bacteria can contaminate food and water and cause food poisoning in the form of diseases such as typhoid, cholera and hepatitis. Pathogenic bacteria are sometimes represented as (deadly) dangerous enemies that lurk in the dark, unseen, ready to attack. Some bacteria kill a high pe...
