Intrinsically Disordered Proteins02:18

Intrinsically Disordered Proteins

19.2K
Intrinsically disordered proteins are a group of proteins that do not fold into specific three-dimensional structures. Their structural flexibility allows them to complement ordered proteins to perform functions that are inaccessible to rigid structures. They are more common in eukaryotes than prokaryotes and may either be exclusively intrinsically disordered or hybrid proteins, consisting of a mix of ordered and disordered regions. The absence of a rigid structure in these proteins can be...

Anatomical Movements00:51

Anatomical Movements

15.3K
Anatomical movements refer to the various actions or motions that can be performed by the body's joints and muscles. These movements are described using specific terms to provide a standardized way of discussing and understanding the range of motion at different joints.
Here are some common anatomical movements:
Flexion and extension motions are in the sagittal (anterior–posterior) plane of motion. These movements take place at the shoulder, hip, elbow, knee, wrist,...

The Movement of Organelles and Vesicles

6.2K
In eukaryotic cells,  cytoskeletal filaments such as actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments form a mesh-like cytoskeletal network. These filaments serve as tracks for transporting cellular cargo. Specialized motor proteins use the chemical energy stored in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for this transport. During interphase, microtubules are polarized, with the plus-end towards the cell periphery and the minus-end towards the cell center. Two microtubule-associated motor proteins,...

Movement Joints in Buildings01:27

Movement Joints in Buildings

338
Movement joints in buildings are essential design elements that accommodate inevitable motions caused by various factors such as temperature changes, moisture content variations, and structural deflections. These motions, if not considered in design and construction, can lead to unsightly or dangerous damage. Movement joints are incorporated in different forms to manage these stresses and allow materials to move without causing distress.
The simplest type of movement joints, working joints, are...

Fluid Movement Between Compartments01:18

Fluid Movement Between Compartments

3.7K
The force applied by fluids against a surface, known as hydrostatic pressure, initiates the transfer of fluid among different compartments. Within our blood vessels, the blood's hydrostatic pressure is a result of the heart's pumping action. At the arteriolar end of capillaries, hydrostatic pressure (capillary blood pressure) exceeds the opposing colloid osmotic pressure created primarily by plasma proteins like albumin. This discrepancy in pressure propels plasma and nutrients from the...

Other Disorders of Digestive System01:30

Other Disorders of Digestive System

1.4K
The gastrointestinal tract is susceptible to various disorders. If the lower esophageal sphincter is damaged, stomach acid can flow back into the esophagus, causing irritation and inflammation of the lining. This condition is called gastroesophageal reflux disease (known as heartburn) and may cause chest pain and difficulty swallowing. In the stomach, prolonged use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like aspirin, chronic alcohol consumption, bacterial infections such as Helicobacter...

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Deep brain stimulation (DBS) utilizes high-frequency electrical stimulation to modulate abnormal brain activity.
  • DBS has been a therapeutic option for over 30 years, primarily for severe movement disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an accessible introduction to DBS for healthcare professionals.
  • To review key indications, contraindications, and treatment outcomes for DBS in movement disorders.
  • To discuss current controversies and new developments in DBS therapy.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing scientific literature on DBS for movement disorders.
  • Analysis of clinical outcomes, indications, and contraindications.
  • Discussion of controversies and emerging trends in DBS technology and application.

Main Results:

  • DBS is effective for Parkinson's disease, dystonia, and tremor, but its effect size is limited.
  • DBS is not a curative treatment and is suitable only for specific patient groups.
  • Significant scientific evidence supports DBS efficacy, yet limitations persist.

Conclusions:

  • DBS remains a valuable, though not universally curative, treatment for select movement disorders.
  • Understanding DBS indications, outcomes, and limitations is crucial for appropriate patient selection.
