E. Rhinocerebral mucormycosis is a rare opportunistic infection caused by fungi of the order Mucorales, which includes Rhizopus oryzae and Mucor species. Rhizopus oryzae and Mucor species are nonseptate, monomorphic fungi. Under the microscope, they can be distinguished because Rhizopus has roots, and Mucor does not. The mold form is seen in culture and in tissue.

E. Rhinocerebral mucormycosis usually occurs in patients with underlying conditions, such as diabetic ketoacidosis, neutropenia, organ transplantation, and immunosuppressive therapy. The standard therapy of mucormycosis consists of high doses of amphotericin B and surgical resection of localized infection. It has an extremely poor prognosis.

Laboratory analysis shows a blood glucose of 300 mg/dL. The activity of which of the following is typically decreased in untreated cases of type 1 DM?
A. A kidney tubule amino acid transport system
B. Branched-chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase
C. Hormone-sensitive lipase
D. Lipoprotein lipase
E. Phosphoenolpyruvate-carboxykinase
D. Lipoprotein lipase

n such a catabolic state, anabolic enzymes will be functioning at lower than normal levels of activity. Lipoprotein lipase is one such anabolic enzyme that is positively regulated by insulin. It resides on capillary walls, in particularly high concentrations on the capillaries of the adipocytes, and in cardiac and skeletal muscles. Normally, it functions to degrade triacylglycerols that are part of the circulating chylomicrons and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL). This releases unesterified fatty acids and glycerol. The fatty acids can be taken up by muscle for fuel or stored in the adipocytes as fat. Due to the low activity of this enzyme in type 1 diabetes, there is an accumulation of chylomicrons and VLDL in the blood, resulting in hypertriglyceridemia. Moreover, these lipids are not available to be used as fuel or to be stored in the adipocytes, resulting in weight loss
Typically in untreated cases of type 1 DM, the reaction catalyzed by which one of the following enzymes will proceed at a faster than normal rate?

describe what each is
The correct answer is D. This patient with squamous cell (rather than the more usual transitional cell) carcinoma of the bladder was most likely infected by the blood trematode (fluke) Schistosoma haematobium, which has a predilection for living in bladder veins. The body often reacts to the organism with inflammation and fibrosis of the bladder wall and squamous metaplasia (from which a squamous cell carcinoma can arise) of the bladder mucosa.

The cestodes (choice A) are (often intestinal) tapeworms, such as Taenia and Echinococcus.

The leishmania (choice B) are amastigote hemoflagellates that cause cutaneous and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis.

The nematodes (choice C) are (often intestinal) roundworms, such as Ascaris and Enterobius.
