T Cell Types and Functions01:24

T Cell Types and Functions

1.5K
When T cells with CD4 markers are activated, they give rise to two types of effector cells: helper T cells and regulatory T cells. Meanwhile, T cells with CD8 markers differentiate into effector cytotoxic T cells. The differentiation of CD4 T cells into helper T cell subsets, such as Th1, Th2, and Th17 cells, is dependent on the antigen type, antigen-presenting cell, and regulatory cytokines.
Th1 cells stimulate dendritic cells to express necessary co-stimulatory molecules on their surfaces for...

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS

14.6K
Genome-wide association studies or GWAS are used to identify whether common SNPs are associated with certain diseases. Suppose specific SNPs are more frequently observed in individuals with a particular disease than those without the disease. In that case, those SNPs are said to be associated with the disease. Chi-square analysis is performed to check the probability of the allele likely to be associated with the disease.
GWAS does not require the identification of the target gene involved in...

Autoimmune Disorders01:29

Autoimmune Disorders

781
Autoimmune diseases are a group of disorders in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its own cells, tissues, and organs. This results from an overactive immune response against substances and tissues normally present in the body. Let's delve into the concept and mechanism of autoimmune diseases from an immune system point of view, explore different causes and examples of such diseases, and discuss potential solutions.

EPS and iPS Cells in Disease Research01:21

EPS and iPS Cells in Disease Research

2.9K
Embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells are excellent models for disease research because of their ability to self-renew and differentiate into most cell types. Somatic cells from a patient are isolated and reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells or iPSCs. These iPSCs are later differentiated into the desired cell type, which mirrors the diseased cell of the patient. In this way, disease models have been created for investigating diseases such as Down syndrome, type I diabetes,...

Skin Diseases and Disorders

4.4K
Skin is the first line of defense and encounters a variety of microbes. Some pathogenic strains are often the cause of a broad range of infections of the skin and other body systems. These conditions can affect people of all ages and may have different causes, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune reactions, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices.
Gram-positive Staphylococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. are responsible for many of the most common skin infections. However, many...

Psychoneuroimmunology: Diabetes and Cancer

75
Chronic stress has been linked to both the onset and progression of serious health conditions, including Type 2 diabetes and cancer. Type 2 diabetes, a widespread chronic illness, is closely associated with obesity and insulin resistance, both of which often worsen under stress. Studies indicate that men experiencing high levels of chronic stress face a 45% higher risk of developing diabetes compared to those with minimal stress. Stress triggers physiological responses that elevate blood...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Psoriasis patients may develop uveitis, an inflammatory eye condition. Early detection and treatment are crucial, as uveitis can lead to vision loss, especially in severe psoriasis cases.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Dermatology
  • Rheumatology

Background:

  • Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated skin disease linked to systemic conditions.
  • Eye involvement is common in psoriasis patients, with dry eye being most frequent.
  • Uveitis, a serious eye condition, can be associated with psoriasis and lead to vision loss.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the diagnosis, type, prognosis, and treatment of uveitis in psoriasis patients.
  • To compile current data from published studies on psoriasis-associated uveitis.
  • To guide the management and follow-up of patients with psoriasis and uveitis.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature search on PubMed.
  • Keywords included: "psoriasis", "psoriatic arthritis", "uveitis", "TNF- inhibitors", "HLA B27".

Main Results:

  • Uveitis in psoriatic arthritis is well-defined, but psoriasis-uveitis links need more study.
  • Psoriasis-associated uveitis can be acute or insidious, increasing with skin/joint severity.
  • Psoriasis-associated uveitis may be bilateral, chronic, severe, and recurrent.

Conclusions:

  • The relationship between non-arthritic psoriasis and uveitis requires further elucidation.
  • Physicians should refer psoriasis patients for regular eye exams, even without symptoms.
  • Ophthalmologists must screen uveitis patients for skin/joint issues to identify underlying psoriasis.
