PERSISTENT SPILLBACK OF BOVINE TUBERCULOSIS FROM WHITE-TAILED DEER TO CATTLE IN MICHIGAN, USA: STATUS, STRATEGIES, AND NEEDS

Persistent Spillback of Bovine Tuberculosis From White-Tailed Deer to Cattle in Michigan, USA: Status, Strategies, and Needs

Free-ranging white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) are believed to be a self-sustaining reservoir for bovine tuberculosis (bTB) in northeastern Lower Michigan, USA.Although a comprehensive control program is in place and on-farm mitigation strategies to curtail bTB transmission between cattle and deer have been implemented for over a decade, c

Targeting DNA hypermethylation: Computational modeling of DNA demethylation treatment of acute myeloid leukemia

In acute myeloid leukemia (AML) DNA hypermethylation of gene promoters is frequently observed and often correlates with a block of differentiation.Treatment of AML patients with DNA methyltransferase inhibitors results in global hypomethylation of genes and, thereby, can lead to a reactivation of the differentiation capability.Unfortunately, after
