    antihistamine shifts the equilibrium in the inactive state. There are four subtypes of HRs ranging from HR1 to HR4. HR1 are coupled to Gq/G11 protein and are located on the membrane of CNS neurons, smooth muscle cells, CVS, neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes, macrophages, DC, T and B cells, endothelial cells and epithelial cells. HR2 are coupled to Gs protein and are located in primary gastric parietal cells, smooth muscle and CVS. HR3 and H4R are coupled to Gi/o protein and are distributed…

    Neutrophils are a part of the innate immune system which provides a quick responders to the site of injury and inflammation. When there is an injury to mast cells, they release chemical messengers such as histamine and cytokines. Histamine signals vascular permeability and vasodilation, which allows leakage of blood components intended to fight infection and initiate healing. Cytokines are nonspecific chemical messengers which alert uninjured cells that an injury has occurred. Chemokines are…

    respectively. In inflammatory and infectious conditions, serum and tissue TNF levels are elevated where as normally it is not detectable in healthy individuals (93-94).Serum TNF levels correlate with the severity of infections (95-96). Usually monocytes or macrophages are the main sources of TNF in inflammatory disease. But other cells also can produce TNF like mast cells, T and B lymphocytes, natural killer (NK) cells, neutrophils, endothelial cells, smooth and cardiac muscle cells, fibroblasts…

    curcumin doesn’t seem to be toxic to animal and human, but its bioavailability is poor (12, 13). Curcumin moderates several inflammatory factors in cardiac tissue including: NF-κB, CRP, AP-1, myeloperoxidase enzyme (MPO), MMP-9. Il-1, Il-6, IL-8, IL-10, monocyte chemoattractant proteine-1 (MCP-1) and TNF-α in cardiovascular tissues (14). These mediators are the main cause of plaque rupture and ACS. Also literature suggests the protective role of curcumin in hyperlipidemia and myocardial…

    The cardiovascular system is an integral system responsible for maintaining homeostasis in the body. It is composed of the muscular pumping organ, the heart, and a closed system of vessels called arteries, veins, and capillaries. “A baby 's heart begins to develop at conception, but is completely formed by eight weeks into the pregnancy” (Stanford Children’s Health). As the heart reaches structural and functional maturation, it will involuntarily pump blood to the blood vessels to nourish cells…

    result in the increase in blood pressure in young adults who are living alone too. It was also found that due to loneliness, the “fight or flight” response increases the amount of immature monocyte production in the persons blood which results in the increase in the inflammatory genes. the increased levels of monocytes lowers the activity of the genes that fight off microorganisms and the formation of white blood cells is then disrupted resulting in person being at risk of disease. In…

    Periodontal diseases generally refer to common inflammatory disorders known as gingivitis and periodontitis, which are caused by a pathogenic microbiota in the subgingival biofilm that trigger an inflammatory response that activate the immune system. Biochemical mediators are biologically active compound, released by the immune cells as a response of the body to eliminate pathogenic bacteria when the periodontium is infected. These mediators responsible to initiate the inflammatory response are…

    Chronic periodontitis is a complex disease caused by microorganism. recent studies showed the effect of periodontal diseases on the systemic health conditions like cardiovascular disease (CVD). C reactive protein (CRP) is an acute phase reactant which used as marker for monitoring of periodontal diseases and systemic health problems. Body mass index (BMI) on the other hand has a relationship with the level of CRP and severity of periodontal diseases as well as systemic health. 1.1. INTRODUCTION…
