Arboviruses are diseases caused by a group of viruses (arboviruses) that have hematophagous arthropods as transmission vectors. These diseases have a great economic and social impact, representing a serious public health problem. Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an arbovirus that belongs to the Togaviridae family and is grouped within the Alphavirus genus. To date, no licensed anti-CHIKV ther…
The Chikungunya Virus (CHIKV) is a known member of the Togaviridae family, the genus Alphavirus, which was first identified in Africa in the year 1952. CHIKV has been reported worldwide, including India, Indian Ocean islands, Southeast Asia, Italy and the United States. This virus presents pathogenicity to humans of all age groups and both sexes. CHIKV infection leads to sudden onset of s…
Cancer remains one of the main problems of global health. Treatment of breast cancer involves the use of complex therapeutic resources, with unsatisfactory aesthetic results that imply, consequently, the social and psychological impairment of the patient due to originated mutilation of the breast region. Nanotechnology in the last decade, has emerged as one of the most promising tools for…
Arbovirus (Arthropod-borne viruses) are virus transmitted by arthropods and have part of their replicative cycle in insects. Most of these virus that cause diseases in humans are of the genus Alphavirus (family Togaviridae) and Flavivirus (family Flaviviridae). The Zika virus (ZIKV) belongs to the genus Flavivirus. Its transmission occurs mainly by hematophagous mosquitoes, mainly those b…
Recent outbreaks of ZIKV infections have characterized a long-term global public health concern. Although the initial attention to infection by this virus has been its connexion with neurological diseases, currently different problematic also has interested researchers. One of these problems concerns the relation between ZIKV and human reproductive systems. Men infected with ZIKV have had…
The recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is characterized by the formation of papillomas in the respiratory tract of children and adults. Papillomas found in the larynx are benign, and can spread throughout the respiratory tract and obstruct the airway, causing death. The clinical course of the disease is variable and can occur only once or in different times. This disease is the re…
