Urinary Tract Infection II: Pathophysiology01:25

Urinary Tract Infection II: Pathophysiology

911
The pathophysiology of urinary tract infections (UTIs) encompasses several progressive stages, beginning with bacterial colonization and culminating in potential systemic complications if untreated. UTIs are primarily initiated by bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, which often originate from the gastrointestinal tract and migrate to the urinary system through the periurethral area. This migration can occur via several routes, including improper hygiene practices, sexual activity, or...

Abnormal Proliferation

5.3K
Under normal conditions, most adult cells remain in a non-proliferative state unless stimulated by internal or external factors to replace lost cells. Abnormal cell proliferation is a condition in which the cell's growth exceeds and is uncoordinated with normal cells. In such situations, cell division persists in the same excessive manner even after cessation of the stimuli, leading to persistent tumors. The tumor arises from the damaged cells that replicate to pass the damage to the...

Tumor Progression02:07

Tumor Progression

7.6K
Tumor progression is a phenomenon where the pre-formed tumor acquires successive mutations to become clinically more aggressive and malignant. In the 1950s, Foulds first described the stepwise progression of cancer cells through successive stages.
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...

Psychosis: Pathophysiology of Schizophrenia and Other Psychotic Disorders

2.3K
Schizophrenia is a neurodevelopmental disorder whose origins are rooted in complex genetic components. Despite our burgeoning understanding, the pathophysiology of this disorder remains incompletely deciphered.
Researchers have identified genetic factors that increase susceptibility to schizophrenia, underscoring the intricate interplay between genetics and environment in disease development. At the core of schizophrenia's pathophysiology is excessive dopaminergic neurotransmission within...

Cystic Fibrosis: Pathogenesis

953
Cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disorder, significantly affects the function of exocrine glands. This genetically inherited disease is characterized by the production of thick and sticky mucus, which can severely affect various organs and systems in the body.
CF is primarily caused by a genetic mutation in a chromosome 7 gene coding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. The most common gene mutation leading to CF is the ΔF508 mutation,...

    • Vascular Biology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS) exhibits distinct patterns and pathological characteristics compared to extracranial atherosclerosis.
    • ICAS is understudied due to challenges in obtaining cerebral artery specimens for analysis.
    • Existing knowledge gaps hinder effective stroke risk stratification and treatment modification.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the distinct pathological characteristics of intracranial atherosclerosis.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of pathological characteristics of ICAS using post-mortem cerebral vessel specimens.
    • Assessment of in vivo ICAS using high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HRMRI).
    • Discussion of the limitations of current methods and the necessity for animal models.

    Main Results:

    • ICAS shows different patterns in Western versus Asian, African, and Hispanic populations.
    • Intracranial arterial disease is more frequently associated with brain infarction than extracranial disease.
    • HRMRI enables in vivo assessment, but understanding vessel wall changes remains challenging.
