Epithelium

from the colon or rectum due to the abnormal cell proliferation caused by Prostaglandin E2(PGE2). PGE2 is increased or stimulated by cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and COX-1 is responsible for the baseline levels of prostaglandlins. In normal colonic epithelium 15-PGDH activity is up-regulated but in colon cancer its decreased. The purpose of this is to determine the expression of 15-PGDH, COX2 and…

We inferred, however, that reducing the intestinal epithelium permeability by strengthening the tight junction may have a facilitating effect on decreasing peripheral levels of LPS and pro-inflammatory cytokines, but would fail to elicit beneficial effects on neuropsychiatric diseases. Inflammation is thought…

1. The skull bones protect the brain from injury, the vertebra surrounds the spinal cord and the rib cage helps protect important organs of the thorax. Some examples are: the bones in our skull protect the brain and the ribs protect the heart and lungs. The bones make a structure that supports our body and holds and protects soft organs. Some examples are: the bones of the lower limbs provide support to the body trunk when we stand, and the rib cage supports the thoracic wall. 2. The skeletal…

Few decades ago, developments in health care have given to individuals to be more healthy and living longer. As a result, the number of people with non communicable diseases such as dementia is reduced. Despite dementia principally influence older people; it is not usual part of ageing. Dementia is a syndrome caused by a numerous of brain illnesses leading to loss memory, abnormal behavior, disability and cause extreme effect in individuals’ lives. Alzheimer disease (AD) is the major form of…

digestive track to maximise the breakdown of the tannin-protein-complexes. The nitrogen found in the protein complex can be utilised in the form of ammonia for microbial protein synthesis however some of the nitrogen is absorbed through the caecal epithelium (R. Osawa et al, 1993a). The ammonia can be used as a nitrogen source for bacteria growth in the hindgut or amino acids in the liver. (I.D. Hume, 1999) Overall the “tannin-protein-complex-degrading enterobacterium” serves as a major…

Taber’s Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary defines Cystic Fibrosis as, “A potentially fatal autosomal recessive disease that manifests itself in multiple body systems, including the lungs, the pancreas, the urogenital system, the skeleton, and the skin. It causes chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, frequent lung infections, deficient elaboration of pancreatic enzymes, osteoporosis, and abnormally high electrolyte concentration in the sweat. The name is derived from the characteristic histologic…

and organs. This body system also helps with the prevention of water loss, but also allows excretion of things such as urea, salts, and water. The skin has three layers the epidermis, dermis, and the hypodermis. The epidermis, which is made of epithelium, is the first layer of the skins and is made of five layers: the stratum basale, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, stratum lucidum, and the stratum…

Endosseous dental implants have become a dependable and predictable method of replacing missing teeth to enhance patients’ quality of life. Clinicians are striving to further improve the patient implant treatment journey through minimizing the peri- and postsurgical discomfort, maximizing aesthetics, and improving the long-term success of the implants. Flapless implant surgery appears to be one way this can be aided.(reference) The flapless technique uses rotary burs or a tissue punch to gain…

I have several things which I like very much. They consist of human evolution. This article will describe my personal opinion about how mammary glands and immune system are interconnected. It is a very interesting theme because the evolution of mammary glands originates from ancient times, when they have been presented in the form of immune protective glands. At that time, they acted bactericidal effect on an organism to fight with various infections. Precisely, in response to these processes,…

Phase II – Surgical To correct the periodontal defects occurring in this client I would suggest a particular therapy called Phase II Surgical Therapy. I would suggest two possible surgical therapies to the client. Firstly, I would recommend that the client should have an extraction of certain teeth (particularly the 37) since mastication, at this point of the progression of the periodontal disease, is reduced. Before these teeth are removed, it is important to advise the client that partial…
