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...

Se encontró que una respuesta inmune adaptativa dirigida a la proteína tau acetilada, específicamente PHF6 aK311, mediada por HLA-DRB1*04:04, disminuye el riesgo de enfermedad de Alzheimer (EA). Esto sugiere nuevas estrategias terapéuticas para la EA.

Área de la Ciencia:

  • Inmunología; Neurociencia; Genética

Sus antecedentes:

  • La enfermedad de Alzheimer (EA) se caracteriza por ovillos neurofibrilares (ONF) formados por proteína tau agregada.
  • La acetilación de tau, particularmente la región PHF6 (VQIVYK), es crucial para la agregación de tau.
  • El papel del sistema inmune adaptativo, incluidas las células T y los tipos de HLA, en la patogénesis de la EA no se comprende completamente.

Objetivo del estudio:

  • Investigar las asociaciones de HLA con la EA y la enfermedad de Parkinson (EP).
  • Explorar la respuesta inmune adaptativa a la proteína tau modificada en la EA.
  • Identificar posibles dianas terapéuticas para la EA basadas en las respuestas inmunes.

Principales métodos:

  • Se analizaron las asociaciones de HLA en una cohorte grande (∼176.000) de individuos con EA/EP frente a controles.
  • Se comparó la densidad postmortem de ONF/placas amiloides en el cerebro y los niveles de tau/Aβ42 en el líquido cefalorraquídeo (LCR) en pacientes con EA y controles (∼8.000).
  • Se realizaron estudios de unión de HLA, estudios de tetrámeros de células T y ensayos de activación de células T (TCR) utilizando tau PHF6 en células Jurkat.

Principales resultados:

  • Se identificó HLA-DRB1*04:04 como un efecto protector contra la EA.
  • Se detectaron células T que reconocen PHF6 acetilado (PHF6 aK311) presentado por HLA-DRB1*04:04, con fenotipos distintos en pacientes con EA en comparación con los controles.
  • Se identificaron clones de TCR específicos activados por tau PHF6 aK311 presentado por HLA-DRB1*04:04 tanto en pacientes con EA como en controles sanos.

Conclusiones:

  • Una respuesta inmune adaptativa mediada por HLA-DRB1*04 contra tau PHF6 aK311 se asocia con una disminución del riesgo de EA.
  • Este hallazgo abre posibilidades para estrategias terapéuticas novedosas dirigidas al sistema inmunitario en la EA.
  • La comprensión de las respuestas específicas de las células T a la tau modificada puede conducir a nuevos enfoques diagnósticos y terapéuticos para la EA.
