Abstract:
In patients with severe #COVID19, increased levels of autoantibodies against PAR1 were found. These might serve as allosteric agonists of PAR1 on endothelial cells and platelets, and thus might contribute to the pathogenesis of microthrombosis in COVID-19. https://bit.ly/3pqM9Vv.

Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology
441
Gastritis is marked by disruption of the mucosal barrier that usually protects the stomach tissue from digestive juices and manifests in acute and chronic forms.
In acute gastritis, the gastric mucosa becomes swollen and red and undergoes superficial erosion. Superficial ulceration may lead to bleeding.
In chronic gastritis, persistent or repeated insults lead to chronic inflammatory changes and, eventually, thinning or atrophy of the gastric tissue.
Gastritis can stem from various causes, each...

Autoimmune Disorders
601
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.
