Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are remnants of ancient retroviral germline infections. Most HERV sequences are silenced in somatic cells, but interest is emerging on the involvement of HERV derived transcripts and proteins in human physiology and disease. A HERV‐W encoded protein, syncytin‐1, has been co‐opted into fetal physiology, where it plays a role in trophoblast formation. Altered HERV...
The carcinogenic effects of microorganisms have been discovered in multiple cancer types. In urology, the development of squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder due to the parasitic infection with Schistosoma Mansoni is widely accepted. The oncogenic potential of biofilms has been studied in colorectal cancer and experimental studies have shown that bacteria such as Escherichia coli drive the development...
PD‐L1 immune checkpoint inhibitor expression was evaluated in high‐grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) ovary in the context of the overall immune landscape to determine its prognostic value. Consecutive cases of HGSC, 50 who underwent upfront surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy (HGSC‐U) and 50 who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by interval debulking surgery (HGSC‐PC) were selected...
There is very little knowledge about the immune responses, particularly cellular immunity to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19). The main objective of this study was to evaluate the frequency of T helper (Th) cell subtypes, including Th1, Th17, and Treg cells, in moderate‐to‐severe and critical COVID‐19 patients compared to healthy controls. Twenty‐nine moderate‐to‐severe and 13 critical patients...
