Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Physiological and Chemical Science in a Natural System of Medicine, Vs. The Theories and Fallacies of Popular Medicine The phenomena of progress is a subject of great interest to the philanthropist, especially from the fact that in all ages there has been manifested a spirit of opposition against all changes that tend to disturb institutions that have been the growth of centuries. The pioneers of knowledge have always been forced to meet this opposition in the form of intolerance which greatly prevented the opportunities for the advance of truth. Authoritative bigotry and selfishness have ruled mankind with an iron rod that has perpetuated a mental slavery which has kept the world in ignorance and chains.

Download or read book Evolution and Medicine written by Robert Perlman and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-05-30 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolution and Medicine provides an accessible introduction to the new field of evolutionary medicine. Evolutionary concepts help explain why we remain vulnerable to disease, how pathogens and cancer cells evolve, and how the diseases that affected our evolutionary ancestors have shaped our biology. The book interweaves the presentation of evolutionary principles with examples that illustrate how an evolutionary perspective enhances our understanding of disease. It discusses the theory of evolution by natural selection, the genetic basis of evolutionary change, evolutionary life history theory, and host-pathogen coevolution, and uses these concepts to provide new insights into diseases such as cystic fibrosis, cancer, sexually transmitted diseases, and malaria, incorporating the latest research in rapidly developing fields such as epigenetics and the study of the human microbiome. The book concludes with a discussion of the ways in which recent, culturally constructed changes in the human environment are increasing the prevalence of man-made diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, and are exacerbating socioeconomic disparities in health. Just as evolutionary biology is concerned with populations and with changes in populations over time, evolutionary medicine is concerned with the health of populations. Evolution and Medicine emphasizes the role of demographic processes in evolution and disease, and stresses the importance of improving population health as a strategy for improving the health of individuals. This accessible text is written primarily for physicians, biomedical scientists, and both premedical and medical students, and will appeal to all readers with a background or interest in medicine.

It defines a set of scientific questions about health, and describes the advances that can be expected from the new evolution-based medicine. The authors suggest that most of what we think of as illness is in fact best understood as being side effects of evolutionary progress.

At various times within this period have the ef forts of misguided benevolence been directed to checking the progress of medical science by inter fering with one of the most important methods by which advances can be made.

Download or read book Genomic Elements in Health, Disease and Evolution written by Kyriacos Felekkis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-30 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 98% of the human genome contains non-coding DNA sequences. For many years molecular biologists referred to this component of the genome as the “junk” DNA since it does not code for any “useful” protein product. Over the last years this notion changed significantly as scientists discovered that a large part of this DNA contains various genomic elements that have important roles in cell physiology. Genomic elements such as non-coding RNAs, transposons, splicing RNAs, DNA repeats and others were shown to play a significant role in regulating gene expression. In addition, all these elements were implicated to contribute in the pathogenesis or progression of various human diseases. In this book, the editor will attempt to describe all these genomic elements that constitute the junk DNA of the genome. For every genomic element, the physiologic role in the organism, its role in evolution and any possible involvement in human diseases will be discussed. Additionally, interaction between these elements in normal or pathologic condition will be discussed. Since a large amount of new knowledge is generated daily in regards to these genomic elements, this book will attempt to combine all the information in a single publication that can serve as a reference for future studies. The first part will discuss RNA elements such as microRNAs, long non-coding RNAs, piRNAs and splicing RNAs. The second part of the book will deal with transposons, retrotransposons and DNA transposons. Finally the third part of the book will discuss DNA elements that include DNA repeats, conserved non-coding sequences, distal genomic elements, introns, pseudogenes, CpG islands and telomeres. For miRNAs and CNVs a separate chapter will be dedicated to their role in human diseases since an extensive amount of information exists about these two elements.
