Cytotoxic T Cells-mediated Immune Response01:27

Cytotoxic T Cells-mediated Immune Response

7.7K
Cytotoxic T cells are a vital component of the immune system. They have the remarkable ability to identify and target antigens on infected or abnormal cells. These antigens often originate from intracellular pathogens such as viruses or abnormal proteins cancer cells produce.
Immunological surveillance is the ability of immune cells to monitor and eliminate infected cells with intracellular pathogens, neoplastically transformed cells, and cells with non-self antigens. Cytotoxic T cells and NK...

Thermosensation01:43

Thermosensation

34.2K
Peripheral thermosensation is the perception of external temperature. A change in temperature (on the surface of the skin and other tissues) is detected by a family of temperature-sensitive ion channels called Transient Receptor Potential, or TRP, receptors. These receptors are located on free nerve endings. Those detecting cold temperatures are closer to the surface of the skin than the nerve endings detecting warmth. These thermoTRP channels, while temperature selective, have relatively...

Tension Response at Adherens Junctions01:26

Tension Response at Adherens Junctions

3.8K
The adherens junctions that anchor cells together are multi-protein complexes that dynamically adapt to mechanical stimuli such as tensile forces and shear stress. Mechanosensory proteins in these junctions can sense such mechanical stimuli and undergo a shift in their conformation, resulting in an altered function — a process called mechanotransduction.
α-Catenin as a Mechanosensory Protein
The α-catenin of adherens junctions is an allosteric protein with three VH (vinculin...

Pathophysiology of Vomiting01:22

Pathophysiology of Vomiting

3.6K
Vomiting is a complex physiological response to expel harmful or irritating substances from the body. It's a defensive mechanism triggered by stimuli like poisons, microbial toxins, cytotoxic drugs, and mechanical abdominal distension. The process is centrally coordinated by the vomiting (or emetic) center located in the medulla of the brainstem. This area, rich in muscarinic M1, histamine H1, neurokinin 1 (NK1), and serotonin 5-HT3 receptors, coordinates the act of vomiting through...

Inflammatory Response01:28

Inflammatory Response

17.7K
An inflammatory response is a localized, nonspecific immune reaction that occurs when a tissue is injured. It is characterized by redness, swelling, heat, and pain, which are commonly called the cardinal signs and symptoms of inflammation. Inflammation can sometimes result in a loss of function.
Inflammation can be triggered by various stimuli, such as impact, abrasion, chemical irritation, infections, and extreme hot or cold temperatures. These can damage cells and connective tissue fibers,...

Hypersensitivity Reactions: Delayed Hypersensitivity Reactions01:29

Hypersensitivity Reactions: Delayed Hypersensitivity Reactions

102
Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity (DTH), or Type IV hypersensitivity, is a cell-mediated immune response. It occurs when T cells, rather than antibodies, mediate a reaction to specific antigens. It is characterized by a delayed onset (1-2 days) and involves the recruitment of macrophages to the inflammation site.The initiation of a DTH response begins with the sensitization of T cells. During this phase, which lasts at least 1-2 weeks, antigen-specific T cells are activated, clonally expanded, and...

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Pain Medicine

Background:

  • Classical trigeminal neuralgia (CTN) and short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache attacks (SUNHA) present with clinically similar symptoms.
  • SUNHA encompasses SUNCT and SUNA, characterized by unilateral trigeminal pain, trigger sensitivity, and background pain, overlapping with CTN features.
  • Atypical CTN cases with autonomic signs and prolonged attacks further complicate the distinction between CTN and SUNHA.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the clinical overlap between CTN and SUNHA.
  • To contrast the pathophysiology and treatment strategies for these conditions.
  • To explore the possibility of CTN and SUNHA representing a disease spectrum.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of clinical presentations.
  • Comparative analysis of pathophysiological mechanisms.
  • Review of current treatment approaches.

Main Results:

  • Significant clinical similarities exist between CTN and SUNHA, including pain characteristics and triggers.
  • Pathophysiological differences and treatment responses may vary, suggesting distinct but related entities.
  • A spectrum of disease, from typical CTN to SUNHA, with intermediate phenotypes, is proposed.

Conclusions:

  • The clinical overlap suggests a potential spectrum of trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias.
  • Further research into pathophysiology and treatment is needed to clarify the relationship between CTN and SUNHA.
  • Understanding this spectrum can refine diagnosis and therapeutic interventions for patients with trigeminal neuralgia and related headache disorders.
