The origin, function and diagnostic potential of extracellular microRNA in human body fluids
(2014)
Short non-coding RNA molecules, microRNAs (miRNAs), post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression in living cells. In recent years, miRNAs have been found in a wide spectrum of mammalian body fluids including blood plasma, ...
Origin of Tropical Diversity: From Clades to Communities
(2017)
In this volume we aimed to assess progress in determining the processes by which current patterns of tropical biodiversity were established and are maintained. Tropical regions are highly species-rich and we present studies ...
The Parallel March of Asthma and Allergy in Childhood: A Multi-Perspective Approach
(2018)
It has not been yet clarified whether allergy and asthma are part of the same condition or they follow a parallel path. This Research Topic aims to try and put some light in this parallel march going through crucial topics: ...
Pathogenic Advances and Therapeutic Perspectives for Eosinophilic Inflammation
(2018)
With the recent approval of the first eosinophil-depleting therapeutic agents targeting the IL-5 pathway for treatment of severe eosinophilic asthma, eosinophils and eosinophilic disorders are in the limelight. Indeed, ...
The pathogenic Yersiniae - advances in the understanding of physiology and virulence
(2014)
For decades, pathogenic Yersinia have served as an inventive model organism for researchers seeking to understand the complexities of bacteria-host cell interactions. In fact, seminal studies on Yersinia virulence mechanisms ...
