Skin Cancer

4.1K
Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...

Lysosomal Hydrolases01:22

Lysosomal Hydrolases

3.8K
Lysosomes are the site for the degradation of macromolecules and biological polymers released during membrane trafficking events such as secretory, endocytic, autophagic, and phagocytic pathways. The membrane-enclosed area of the lysosome, called the lumen, contains hydrolytic enzymes active in an acidic environment. These acid hydrolases are functional at a pH between 4.5 and 5 and are involved in cellular processes such as cell signaling, energy metabolism, restoration of the plasma membrane,...

Skin Diseases and Disorders

3.8K
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...

Drugs for Treatment of Constipation-Predominant IBS

157
Pharmacological therapies for IBS-C are designed to alleviate abdominal discomfort and enhance bowel function. In patients with IBS-C, fiber supplements may help soften stools and decrease straining, but may also lead to increased gas production and bloating. Osmotic laxatives like milk of magnesia are frequently used to soften stools and increase stool frequency in IBS-C patients. In addition, two drugs approved for use in severe IBS-C adult cases are linaclotide (Linzess) and lubiprostone...

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Virology
  • Animal Pathology

Background:

  • Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is a contagious, non-zoonotic viral disease affecting cattle.
  • Recent rapid spread and reoccurrence in previously controlled regions raise significant concerns.
  • The disease poses a threat to countries previously free from LSD.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize the key aspects of Lumpy skin disease (LSD).
  • To highlight the disease's epidemiology and economic impact.
  • To underscore the importance of control and prevention measures.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of epidemiological data.
  • Analysis of disease transmission patterns.
  • Assessment of economic impacts on the livestock industry.

Main Results:

  • LSD is characterized by deep nodules on skin, subcutaneous tissue, and muscles, primarily on the head, neck, and limbs.
  • Economic losses stem from decreased milk production, reduced hide value, and animal movement bans.
  • The disease's re-emergence and spread necessitate urgent attention to control strategies.

Conclusions:

  • Lumpy skin disease (LSD) presents a significant and growing threat to global cattle populations.
  • Effective control and preventive measures are crucial to mitigate economic damage and disease spread.
  • Continued surveillance and rapid response are essential for managing LSD outbreaks.
