Is There Blinding Onchocerciasis in Northern Uganda?
Background: Onchocerciasis is a filarial nematode Onchocerca volvulus transmitted by female black flies which breeds in fast flowing rivers. Clinical manifestations is ocular or skin lesions. The long-term armed conflict...
Cancer Stem- Like Cells in Melanoma Progression, Resistance and Recurrence: Significance for Melanoma Treatment
Human malignant melanoma is a highly aggressive tumor which demonstrates heterogeneity and a propensity to drug resistance. Despite improved treatment options, patients with advanced malignant melanoma continue have a po...
Differentiation of Neural Progenitor Cells from Pluripotent Stem Cells in Artificial Niches
Neural progenitor cells (NPCs) derived from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) provide a promising cell source for disease modeling, drug screening, and tissue engineering. To fulfill the potentials of PSC-derived NPCs, a ser...
