New precision medicine procedure fights cancer, advances treatment for pets and humans
(University of Missouri-Columbia) In a first-of-its-kind study, scientists at the University of Missouri have helped advance a patient-specific, precision medicine treatment for bone cancer in dogs. By creating a vaccine from a dog's own tumor, scientists worked with ELIAS Animal Health to target specific cancer cells and avoid the toxic side effects of chemotherapy, while also opening the door for future human clinical trials.

Researchers Find Way For Chickens To Lay Eggs Filled With Cancer-Killing Drugs
BOSTON (CBS) – Researchers in Scotland say they have found a way to have chickens lay eggs filled with medicine. It’s a method that could make some drugs much more affordable. Scientists at The University of Edinburgh have genetically modified the birds to produce human proteins in their eggs that boost the immune system. Now, the chickens are laying eggs containing cancer-killing drugs. Researchers in Scotland have genetically modified chickens to produce human proteins in their eggs (WBZ-TV) “In the past, making these transgenic animals has been very inefficient very expensive and difficult,” says Professor Helen...

Of Vaccines and Emperors' Wardrobes
Veterinary Medicine in general and small animal medicine in particular is fraught with and often ruled by expert opinion. Notwithstanding being cliché-laden, it is a reality that Dr. Google further promulgates the cult of the expert with easy access to seemingly authoritative unvetted musings. In contrast, human medicine and food animal medicine are significantly more data driven; the operative word being “significant” – P values, not opinion, matter to insurance companies and to producers of animal protein who determine the economic value of various recommendations from our profession.

Authors: Lin J, Chen L, Qiu X, Zhang N, Guo Q, Wang Y, Wang M, Gober HJ, Li D, Wang L Abstract Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections are common and generally harmless, but persistent infections can bring health problems like cancer and genital warts. For the uninfected group, HPV vaccines provide safe and effective protection, but they're type-restricted and expensive. For those infected, so far there have been a handful of treatments for HPV-associated benign or malignant diseases, traditional Chinese medicine being one of them. This systematic review focuses on the application of traditional Chinese medicine in H...
