Infection

11.6K
When a pathogen enters the body and reproduces, it can cause an infection, damage body cells, and cause illness symptoms that eventually lead to disease. Therefore, its prevention requires breaking the chain of infection.
The chain begins with pathogens: bacteria, viruses, fungi, prions, or parasites such as protozoa helminths. These can be present on the skin as transient or resident flora, or they can be acquired from the environment. Identifying and treating the type of infection and...

Urinary Tract Infection II: Pathophysiology

524
The pathophysiology of urinary tract infections (UTIs) encompasses several progressive stages, beginning with bacterial colonization and culminating in potential systemic complications if untreated. UTIs are primarily initiated by bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, which often originate from the gastrointestinal tract and migrate to the urinary system through the periurethral area. This migration can occur via several routes, including improper hygiene practices, sexual activity, or...

Cystic Fibrosis: Pathogenesis

676
Cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disorder, significantly affects the function of exocrine glands. This genetically inherited disease is characterized by the production of thick and sticky mucus, which can severely affect various organs and systems in the body.
CF is primarily caused by a genetic mutation in a chromosome 7 gene coding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. The most common gene mutation leading to CF is the ΔF508 mutation,...

Stages of Infection

64.7K
Stages of infection describe what happens to a susceptible host once a pathogen invades the human body. The stages of infection are incubation, prodromal, illness, stage of decline, and convalescence. The incubation stage is the period from exposure to a pathogen until symptoms start. The infected person is unaware of impending illness as the pathogens grow and multiply within the body. The duration may vary depending on the type of infection. The incubation period of measles averages ten to...

Defense Against Bacterial Pathogens01:31

Defense Against Bacterial Pathogens

2.6K
The human immune system is a complex network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to defend the body against bacterial infections. It consists of various immune cells, each playing a specific role in the defense mechanism.
Phagocytes
Phagocytes are the frontline soldiers of the immune system. They include neutrophils and macrophages. Neutrophils are the most abundant type of white blood cell and are quickly mobilized to the site of infection. Macrophages are larger cells that patrol...

Resumen
Este resumen es generado por máquina.

La microglía puede proteger contra la patología temprana de la enfermedad de Alzheimer (EA) en un modelo humano 3D, pero su eficacia disminuye con la exposición severa a beta-amiloide (Aβ). Este modelo ayuda a identificar nuevas dianas terapéuticas para la EA.

Área de la Ciencia:

  • Neurociencia
  • Biología Celular
  • Genómica

Sus antecedentes:

  • La enfermedad de Alzheimer (EA) implica placas de beta-amiloide (Aβ), pero el papel de la microglía en la neurodegeneración sigue sin estar claro.
  • La función de la microglía en la EA puede ser protectora o perjudicial dependiendo de la etapa de la enfermedad.

Objetivo del estudio:

  • Caracterizar las respuestas de la microglía a la patología Aβ utilizando un novedoso modelo 3D de neuroesferas derivadas de células madre pluripotentes inducidas (iPSC) humanas.
  • Investigar el impacto de la microglía en la salud neuronal y la expresión génica en el contexto de la amiloidosis inducida por Aβ.

Principales métodos:

  • Desarrollo de un modelo de neuroesfera 3D de 60 días utilizando neuronas y microglía derivadas de iPSC.
  • Inducción de amiloidosis con tratamiento continuo de Aβ oligomérico sintético.
  • Monitorización del estrés oxidativo neuronal y la actividad del calcio utilizando los sensores roGFP1 y GCaMP6f.
  • Análisis de los cambios transcriptómicos mediante secuenciación de ARN de núcleo único (snRNA-seq).

Principales resultados:

  • La microglía infiltró las neuroesferas y previno la neurotoxicidad en la exposición leve a Aβ (3 semanas).
  • La microglía no logró prevenir la neurotoxicidad en la exposición severa a Aβ (5 semanas).
  • La snRNA-seq reveló que la microglía modula genes de estrés oxidativo y genes asociados con la EA (APOE, CLU, FTL) en astrocitos y neuronas.
  • La microglía mostró una mayor eliminación de Aβ después del tratamiento con anticuerpos anti-Aβ.

Conclusiones:

  • El modelo de neuroesfera 3D imita eficazmente las características patológicas clave de la enfermedad de Alzheimer.
  • La microglía exhibe propiedades neuroprotectoras en este modelo, potencialmente mejoradas por el tratamiento con anticuerpos.
  • La microglía es fundamental para impulsar los cambios transcriptómicos asociados con la EA bajo un insulto severo de Aβ, lo que resalta su complejo papel y potencial terapéutico.
