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.

El tratamiento con dexametasona en ratas con enfermedad de Alzheimer (EA) redujo C1qB pero aumentó el TNF-α, lo que sugiere una respuesta inmunitaria compleja. Se necesita más investigación para comprender si este cambio en la activación de la microglía es beneficioso o perjudicial.

Área de la Ciencia:

  • Neurociencia
  • Inmunología
  • Farmacología

Sus antecedentes:

  • La proteína ácida fibrilar glial (GFAP) es un marcador de reactividad astrocítica en la enfermedad de Alzheimer (EA).
  • El papel de la GFAP y la neuroinflamación en la patogénesis de la EA no se comprende completamente.
  • La dexametasona, un glucocorticoides, tiene propiedades antiinflamatorias conocidas.

Objetivo del estudio:

  • Investigar los efectos antiinflamatorios de la dexametasona en marcadores astrogliales y microgliales en el modelo de rata TgF344-AD.
  • Evaluar los cambios en la activación glial y los marcadores inflamatorios tras el tratamiento con dexametasona.
  • Evaluar el impacto de la dexametasona en la neuroinflamación en la EA en etapa temprana.

Principales métodos:

  • Se trataron ratas macho TgF344-AD (7-8 meses de edad) con dexametasona (0,25 mg/kg) durante 14 días.
  • Se recogió sangre, líquido cefalorraquídeo (LCR) y tejido cerebral para su análisis.
  • Se evaluó la captación de [3H]-glutamato, marcadores gliales, marcadores inflamatorios (C1qB, TNF-α) y niveles de glucosa.

Principales resultados:

  • El tratamiento con dexametasona aumentó la glucosa plasmática, confirmando la eficacia sistémica.
  • No se observaron cambios significativos en la captación de glutamato o en los marcadores generales de activación glial.
  • La expresión de C1qB cortical disminuyó, mientras que la expresión de TNF-α aumentó paradójicamente.

Conclusiones:

  • El tratamiento con dexametasona en ratas TgF344-AD alteró factores específicos secretados por la microglía (C1qB, TNF-α).
  • Los cambios observados sugieren un cambio potencial en el fenotipo de la microglía y el equilibrio inmunológico.
  • Se requieren estudios adicionales para determinar las consecuencias funcionales y el potencial terapéutico de estos cambios inducidos por la dexametasona en la EA.
