Abstract In 2007, human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 was finally recognized as a risk factor, besides smoking and alcohol, for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), including tonsillar squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC), by the International Agency for Research against Cancer. Just before, in 2006, the Food and Drug Administration had approved Gardasil, the first vaccine against HPV16, 18, 6 and 11, for preventive vaccination women against cervical cancer. Concurrently, some Western...
Abstract The relationship of evolution with diet and environment can provide insights into modern disease. Fossil evidence shows apes and early human ancestors were fruit‐eaters living in environments with strongly seasonal climates. Rapid cooling at the end of the middle Miocene (15‐12Ma: millions of years ago) increased seasonality in Africa and Europe, and ape survival may be linked with a mutation in uric acid metabolism. Climate stabilized in the later Miocene and Pliocene (12‐5Ma),...

Abstract The majority of breast cancers are primarily hormone‐sensitive and could be managed by endocrine therapy, although therapy‐resistant or hormone‐refractory cancers need alternative treatments. Recently, increasing attention is being paid to RNA‐binding proteins (RBPs) in cancer pathophysiology. The precise role of RBPs in breast cancer, however, remains to be clarified. We here demonstrate that an RBP non‐POU domain containing octamer binding (NONO) plays a critical role in the pathophysiology...

Abstract Food allergies have become a significant heath burden as prevalence continues to rise, affecting 6‐13% of the global population. In the absence of drugs approved by regulatory agencies, the current standard of care remains avoidance of allergenic foods and management of acute allergic reactions with antihistamines and epinephrine auto‐injectors. Allergen immunotherapy has been shown to increase the threshold of reactivity in the majority of food‐allergic individuals. However, challenges...

Abstract Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) is an emerging imaging technique which uses light for diagnostic purposes in non‐invasive and non‐ionizing way. In this paper, we focus on DOT application to female breast screening, where the surface of the breast is illuminated by light sources and the outgoing light is collected on the surface. The comparison of measured light data with the equivalent field obtained from a relevant mathematical model yields the DOT inverse problem whose solution provides...
