Structural model at atomic resolution of bacteriophage T4 [1] The structure of a typical myovirus bacteriophage Anatomy and infection cycle of bacteriophage T4.. A bacteriophage (/ b æ k ˈ t ɪər i oʊ f eɪ dʒ /), also known informally as a phage (/ ˈ f eɪ dʒ /), is a virus that infects and replicates within bacteria and archaea.
Cholestatic pruritus is the sensation of itch due to nearly any liver disease, but the most commonly associated entities are primary biliary cholangitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, obstructive choledocholithiasis, carcinoma of the bile duct, cholestasis (also see drug-induced pruritus), and chronic hepatitis C viral infection and other forms of viral hepatitis.
Phage therapy has many potential applications in human medicine as well as dentistry, veterinary science, and agriculture. [20] If the target host of a phage therapy treatment is not an animal, the term " biocontrol " (as in phage-mediated biocontrol of bacteria) is usually employed, rather than "phage therapy".
Mycobacteriophage Bxb1 Structure [1]. A mycobacteriophage is a member of a group of bacteriophages known to have mycobacteria as host bacterial species. While originally isolated from the bacterial species Mycobacterium smegmatis and Mycobacterium tuberculosis, [2] the causative agent of tuberculosis, more than 4,200 mycobacteriophage species have since been isolated from various environmental ...
Prolonged human-human contact, e.g. through exudates from skin lesions to abrasion of other person [33] Leprosy (Hansen's disease): [33] granulomas of the nerves, respiratory tract, skin, and eyes. [69] Tuberculoid form: Dapsone and rifampin [33] Lepromatous form: Clofazimine [33] BCG vaccine shows some effects [33] M. tuberculosis: Droplet ...
Contact dermatitis. What it looks like: Contact dermatitis has the same symptoms mentioned above, and can be a red rash that appears scaly or blistered, depending on its cause and severity.This ...
However, under certain conditions, the phage DNA may integrate itself into the host cell chromosome in the lysogenic pathway. In this state, the λ DNA is called a prophage and stays resident within the host's genome without apparent harm to the host. The host is termed a lysogen when a prophage is present. This prophage may enter the lytic ...
Fatty liver disease is known as a “silent disease” as it has few symptoms. In fact, you might have fatty liver disease and not even know it. You may not experience any symptoms at all until it ...
