El cáncer cérvico-uterino (CaCU) es actualmente el segundo tipo de cáncer más prevalente entre las mujeres en el mundo. Anualmente se diagnostican más de 500, 000 casos y mueren más de 200, 000 mujeres, lo que representa un problema de salud pública. Las vacunas comerciales aprobadas para la prevención de la infección por el virus de papiloma humano (VPH), no son de utilidad para el tratamiento de CaCU ni protegen al individuo infectado para el desarrollo de cáncer. Lo cual hace necesario el desarrollo de vacunas terapéuticas eficientes para contrarrestar la enfermedad. El presente libro proporciona información relevante y actual sobre el papel de la infección por VPH en el desarrollo de CaCU, la respuesta inmune hacia la infección y las diferentes estrategias para generar vacunas eficientes con propiedades profilácticas y terapéuticas. Se propone el uso de plantas superiores como bioreactores para la producción a gran escala de vacunas a base de partículas quiméricas tipo virales (cVLPs), como una opción viable principalmente en países en vías en desarrollo en donde las infecciones por VPH representan un grave problema de salud pública.

  • Viral Replication Complexes
    Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that need to co-opt a living cell’s machinery for replication. At the heart of the viral replication machinery are the nucleic acid polymerases, which are responsible for efficiently copying the viral genome. This process must often be coordinated with other viral processes, including protein translation and viral packaging. The poly...

  • Advances in Flavivirus Research
    The flaviviruses are composed almost entirely of arthropod-borne viruses, a subset of which are responsible for millions of cases of human disease each year. Among these viruses are dengue virus—a scourge throughout the tropical regions of Asia and the Americas; yellow fever virus—the “original” hemorrhagic fever virus; and the recently emerged Zika virus. While the flaviviruse...

    Lesley J. Rogers / Lesley JRogers
    This edited book brings together research reports on the asymmetry of brain function in various species, including humans, dogs, birds, lizards and bees. As shown in a wide range of species, and, as we now know, not solely in humans, the left and right sides of the brain process information in different ways and control different responses or patterns of behaviour. Since this d...

  • The Epithelialto- Mesenchymal Transition ( EMT ) in Cancer
    Joëlle Roche
    The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a highly dynamic process with multiple transitional states, by which epithelial cells can convert into a mesenchymal phenotype. This process involves loss of cellular adhesion and cellular polarity, and an improvement in migratory and invasive properties. It occurs during normal embryonic development, tissue regeneration, organ ...

  • The Biology and Treatment of Myeloid Leukaemias
    There has been an observed decrease in the global mortality from cancer, mostly atributable to improved, particularly early, detection and prevention. For many carcinomas and leukaemias in adults, once the disease has reached a certain stage there are no therapies that are able to erradicate the cancer cells and cure patients. There has been progress in the treatment of acute m...
