Asthma is a common household word that many people use day to day. The word Asthma is often misused and usually correlated with obesity. Asthma is a chronic disease involved in the airways of the lungs. Asthma is the inflammation of these airways that allow air to travel in and out of the lungs, bringing the body necessary oxygen. Due to the inflammation, the tissue surrounding the airways can become swollen and the muscles involved with breathing can tighten, which can cause the symptoms…

airway hypersensitivity, limitation of airflow, and respiratory symptoms (National Institute of Heath, 2007). The immunehistopathologic characteristics involve the inflammatory cell infiltrations that include: Mast cell activation, Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, and Epithelial cell injury. Hence, the interaction between the airway inflammations and the clinical symptoms underline the pathophysiology of Asthma (National Institute of Heath, 2007). Asthma is considered to be an amalgamation between…

After 24 hours, there was a decrease in CD4, and CD8 in group M in…

Over many years, scientists have achieved the understanding of the human body. For example, how each system of the human body works, but most importantly, how they fail to work has led to different disease processes and the possible treatments. Although genetic research began long ago, it was not until 1990, when the Human Genome Project was introduced and successfully completed in 2003 (National Human Genome Institute, 2014). This project allowed scientists to understand the “sequences that…

can produce antibodies to eradicate the pathogens and can also release antitoxins to neutralize toxin levels. There are many different types of white blood cells, all with different functions but can be sorted into two main groups; phagocytes and lymphocytes. A Phagocyte can easily pass through the walls of the blood vessel and into the surrounding tissue to move towards the pathogens. The phagocytes can either ingest and absorb the pathogens or release an enzyme to destroy them. Pathogens…

The hypothesis was proven wrong by the timing and values of the graph. I believe this was caused by the enzyme having to break apart a heightened amount of substrates in the mixed test tubes. This caused the initial data to yield a quicker reaction (on the basest of browning in color) compared to the altered data. The independent variable of this experiment was time, while the dependent variable was the color as the reaction is completely dependent on the duration of time. There were numerous…

Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia Everyone carries cancer cells throughout their body. The human body is programmed to fight off these cancer cells with natural immune defenses. For some, cancer is inevitable and can be brought upon in many different ways. One of the top 10 most common cancers is leukemia (Leukemia, p.1). While all leukemia is cancer of the blood cells, it can come in many different forms such as Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia, Acute Myelogenous Leukemia, Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and…

Organ transplantation is a common form of treatment for people with severe organ failure. It involves removing a healthy, functioning organ from a donor and placing it into a susceptible host. Unfortunately, organ transplantation is almost always accompanied by transplant rejection, which involves the recipient’s immune system recognizing the new organ as a foreign object, subsequently attacking it and destroying it. There are several different stages of transplant rejection including hyperacute…

Cuba cures cancer with a vaccine! Cancer is at the top of the list of threats to the population nowadays. In 2015, there will be an estimated 1,658,370 new cancer cases diagnosed and 589,430 cancer deaths in the US. Lack of effective and definitive cure can be blamed. Cancer starts growing when cells reproduce uncontrollably and mutate. Tumor (formation of the new mutated cells) can become malignant and invade other parts of the organism. At early stage of cancer progression and when the…

FPV is in the family Parvoviridae, which contains 26 species of virus that infect a broad host range, covering species from invertebrates to humans. Parvoviruses are small single stranded DNA viruses enveloped by a T=1 non-enveloped capsid protein. Replication of these viruses can only occur when the host cell is in S-phase of its mitotic cycle (15). FPV has a very small linear genome that is only 5 kilobases in length (4). The virus’s genome has specific sequences, similar to a TATA boxes, that…
