Pregnant women and influenza H1N1
Get PDFIn 2009, uncontained transmission of novel H1N1 influenza rapidly became a worldwide pandemic and concern. Infected pregnant women were identified at high risk for H1N1 influenza complications that included an increased mortality rate that was greater than the general population affected by the disease. Major worldwide effort has been done over the last year to develop a strategy for containment of H1N1 transmission, disease prevention, and vaccination development
MicroRNAs, Cellular Behavior, and Endometrial Cancer
Get PDFEndometrial cancer is the most common gynecological cancer and the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide. In spite of its’ relative importance to overall morbidity among women, molecular research in endometrial cancers lags far behind other cancers such as breast and colorectal. Nowhere is this more true than in research in the newly emergent field of post-transcriptional gene regulation by small, regulatory RNAs, primarily microRNAs (miRNAs). Here, structure, biogenesis, and mode of action of miRNAs is presented along with a brief overview of the role of miRNAs in carcinogenesis and a review of the few miRNA studies in endometrial cancer carried out to date
