Drug-resistant neuroblastoma remains a major challenge in paediatric oncology and novel less toxic therapeutic approaches are urgently needed to improve survival reduce the side effects of traditional interventions. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) an attractive candidate for cell gene therapy since they recruited by able infiltrate tumours. This feature has been exploited creating genetically modified MSCs that combat cancer delivering molecules. Whether neuroblastomas attract systemically...
The genus Anaplasma (Anaplasmataceae, Rickettsiales) includes tick-transmitted bacterial species of importance to both veterinary and human medicine. Apart from the traditionally recognized six (A. phagocytophilum, A. platys, bovis, ovis, centrale, marginale), novel strains candidate species, also relevance medicine, are emerging worldwide. Although related zoonotic platys phagocytophilum have been reported in several African European Mediterranean countries, data on presence these...
