Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine

Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Microorganisms in Medicine and Therapeutics

Microorganisms in Medicine and Therapeutics

Microorganisms play a fundamental role in vaccine development, gene therapy, and therapeutic production. Their biological properties are harnessed to advance medicine and public health. Beyond immunization, microorganisms contribute to gut health, antibiotic synthesis, and genetic disease treatment.Live Attenuated and Inactivated VaccinesLive attenuated vaccines, such as the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine, utilize weakened forms of pathogens to closely resemble natural infections.

Area of Science:

Reproductive Medicine
Developmental Biology
Epidemiology

Background:

Improving individual quality of life necessitates primary defense strategies.
Epidemiology and clinical studies using bio-resources/database analysis are vital.
Understanding epigenetic mechanisms in developmental origins of health and diseases is a growing research area.

Purpose of the Study:

To establish a comprehensive bio-bank and database integrating bio-resources with personal health records.
To facilitate research on preemptive medicine and the developmental origins of health and diseases.
To support the utilization of bio-resources for advancing health science.

Main Methods:

Collection and storage of bio-fluids (blood, urine) and tissues (placenta, cord).
Development and utilization of a bio-database linking bio-resources with personal health records (PHR).
Integration of daily lifestyle data (diet, exercise) with individual health and medical records.

Main Results:

The Resource Center for Health Science (RECHS) and Bio-databases Institute of Reproductive and Developmental Medicine (BIRD) have established a bio-bank.
A project initiated to develop and utilize bio-resources/database comprising PHR and bio-resources from the same individuals.
Consolidation of bio-resources with comprehensive personal health records.

Conclusions:

Bio-Resources/Database projects are essential for establishing preemptive medicine.
These projects are critical for understanding the mechanisms of developmental origins of health and diseases.
The integrated approach supports advancements in personalized and preventative healthcare.
