Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer

5.3K
Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.
RSV is a retrovirus that contains two copies of a plus-strand  RNA genome. Its genome consists of four main open...

Nurses' Legal Responsibilities I

804
In healthcare, informed consent is a crucial process that involves thoroughly communicating medical treatment options to patients, including benefits, risks, potential side effects, and alternatives. This process enables patients to make well-informed decisions about their care, ensuring they understand the implications of their choices before consenting to or refusing treatment.
The legal responsibilities of a nurse regarding informed consent include the following:

Rab Proteins01:14

Rab Proteins

4.0K
Rab proteins constitute the largest family of monomeric GTPases, of which 70 members are present in humans. Rab proteins and their effectors regulate consecutive stages of vesicle transport such as vesicle transport, docking, and fusion to the correct recipient membrane.
Rab proteins switch between a cytosolic, GDP-bound inactive state and a membrane-anchored, GTP-bound active state. By themselves, Rabs show slow rates of GDP/GTP exchange and GTP hydrolysis. Thus, Rab proteins are considered...

Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Rabies is a fatal zoonotic viral disease with no cure, causing over 60,000 deaths worldwide annually, primarily in children.
  • Despite being preventable, rabies still causes approximately 3-5 deaths per year in the US, with over 50,000 individuals receiving post-exposure prophylaxis.
  • Lack of public awareness and ambivalence towards rabies in the US contribute to unnecessary animal exposures and human risk.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize current knowledge and recent advances in rabies.
  • To highlight the critical role of veterinarians in public education and reassurance regarding rabies prevention.
  • To provide veterinarians with information to effectively counsel clients on rabies risks and protection.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current rabies epidemiology and statistics.
  • Analysis of public awareness and risk factors in the US.
  • Discussion of rabies prevention strategies and veterinary roles.

Main Results:

  • Rabies, though preventable, remains a significant global and national health threat.
  • Inadequate public awareness is a major driver of rabies exposure and risk in the United States.
  • Veterinarians are essential in mitigating rabies risk through client education and promoting preventive measures.

Conclusions:

  • Continued efforts are needed to combat this persistent zoonotic disease.
  • Enhancing public understanding of rabies is paramount to reducing unnecessary exposures and anxiety.
  • Veterinarians play a vital role in rabies control by informing and reassuring the public.
