Tumor Progression02:07

Tumor Progression

7.4K
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...

mTOR Signaling and Cancer Progression

4.8K
The mammalian target of rapamycin or mTOR protein was discovered in 1994 due to its direct interaction with rapamycin. The protein gets its name from a yeast homolog called TOR. The mTOR protein complex in mammalian cells plays a major role in balancing anabolic processes such as the synthesis of proteins, lipids, and nucleotides and catabolic processes, such as autophagy in response to environmental cues, such as availability of nutrients and growth factors.
The mTOR pathway or the...

Drug Dosing: Infants and Children

302
Pediatric patient dosages diverge from adults due to disparities in body surface area, total body water, and extracellular fluid per kilogram of body weight. The dosing regimen considers the variations in pharmacokinetics and pharmacology across distinct age groups, encompassing preterm newborns, infants, young children, older children, and adolescents. Calculation of pediatric patient doses is predicated on determining body surface area, which exhibits a superior correlation with the child's...

Rapidly Varying Flow

500
Rapidly varying flow (RVF) in open channels is characterized by abrupt changes in flow depth over a short distance, with the rate of depth change relative to distance often approaching unity. These flows are inherently complex due to their transient and multi-dimensional nature, making exact analysis difficult. However, approximate solutions using simplified models provide valuable insights into their behavior.Key Features of Rapidly Varying FlowRVF is commonly observed in scenarios involving...

RACE - Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends

7.3K
Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends, or RACE, is one of the most effective methods to obtain a full-length cDNA from an mRNA sequence between a known internal region to the unknown sequence at the 5’ or 3’ end. The unknown region is cloned in the cDNA by a gene-specific primer that binds the known end, and a hybrid primer that attaches a predefined anchor sequence to the unknown end of the cDNA. The sequence in between is amplified by PCR with an anchor primer and a gene-specific...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Nephrology
  • Renal Pathology
  • Immunology

Background:

  • Rapid Progressive Glomerulonephritis (RPGN) is a rare, severe kidney disease in children.
  • It frequently leads to acute and/or chronic renal failure, often necessitating dialysis.
  • Early diagnosis and intervention are critical for managing RPGN outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the diagnostic criteria for pediatric RPGN.
  • To outline general and specific therapeutic strategies for RPGN.
  • To describe the various underlying diseases causing RPGN and their unique features.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review focusing on diagnostic criteria, including renal biopsy findings.
  • Synthesis of information on general and specific treatment modalities.
  • Categorization and description of RPGN etiologies.

Main Results:

  • Detailed discussion of diagnostic criteria for RPGN in children.
  • Overview of current therapeutic approaches for RPGN.
  • Description of specific diseases associated with RPGN, highlighting diagnostic and therapeutic nuances.

Conclusions:

  • Accurate diagnosis, often requiring renal biopsy, is essential for RPGN management.
  • A comprehensive understanding of RPGN causes guides tailored treatment strategies.
  • Effective management of pediatric RPGN aims to prevent or mitigate renal failure.
