blood cells, phagocytes and lymphocytes. Phagocytes are the white blood cells responsible for eliminating the infectious organism. The lymphocytes are the white blood cells are focused on allowing the body to remember the infectious organisms and also help eliminate them. There are also two different types of lymphocytes, B and T cells. The T cells are attach to the invader and multiply and attempt to destroy it, when it is in the cell. The B cells produce an antibody which are released into surrounding cells in order to eliminate the invader (McLeod, 2010). Lymphocytes, no matter the type, all start out their life cycle in the bone marrow. The cell can stay and mature into the B cell or they will leave the bone marrow and travel to the thymus gland, where at this stage they will transform into the T cell (Durani, 2015). Now to summarize how all these parts work together. A foreign body enters the body and gets recognized by many cells working together. This detection then sends a signal to the B cells that will then produce the antibodies, which will attach to the invader. These antibodies produces will stay in the body for future use when they come across the infection again. The T cells job then is to destroy the invader that they antibodies have attached themselves to. This whole process is called immunity. Stress has an enormous impact on how this entire system functions. Before that is all discussed, I will discuss what stress is. Stress comes from the assessment of…

The lymphatic system is an important part of the immune system and is a network of tissues and organs that help rid the body of toxins, waste and other unwanted material. The functions of the lymphatic system are fluid balance, fat absorption, and defense. The encapsulated lymphatic organs are the lymph nodes, thymus, and spleen. The mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) consists of a vast network of nonencapsulated lymphatic tissue found in and beneath the mucous membranes lining the…

1ml per sample. The samples were incubated at 4⁰C overnight. The following day, the samples were washed with DPBS at 4⁰C and then washed with 2ml 1 perm buffer twice. Anti-mouse Foxp3- PE Ab was added in a 1:100 dilution for 30 mins at 4⁰C. The samples were washed with perm buffer and resuspend in DPBS for flow cytometry analysis.

Firstly, over expression of AIRE, CHRNA1 and Insulin was found in the (DS) thymic tissue. Expression of AIRE had the highest p value of 0.0079, a statistically significant result against the control. A p value of 0.056 for expression of Insulin and CHRNA1 was also determine against the control meaning the result is statistically insignificant. Positive correlations were also found between; AIRE/Insulin and AIRE/CHRNA1. The next section of the results looks at the thymic medullary structural and…

Medications used to treat the disorder include neostigmine and pyridostigmine, prednisone, azathioprine, cyclosporin, mycophenolate mofetil, and tacrolimus. These medications can boost the strength of muscles by quelling the creation of irregular antibodies. The use of these drugs must be carefully noted by a doctor because they might cause major side effects. Thymectomy is recommended for individuals with thymomas. A thymectomy is the surgical removal of the thymus gland. Other therapy…

Allometric growth is characteristic of mammals. It has shown the relationship between growth and development. Human body is grown and developed in different parts of the body with their own different rates. Besides, the growth and development of human body is resulting in the change of the size and shape of the organism. Human brain, thymus (lymphoid tissue), reproductive system, and absolute growth curve of the whole body are the main things to be focused on allometric growth of human (Refer to…

body to control the cells in that part of the body, most of the hormones are secreted into the interstitial fluid surrounding the secretory cells. The endocrine glands consist of the pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal and pineal glands. There are also glands that are not exclusively classified as endocrine glands these are the hypothalamus, thymus, pancreas, ovaries, testes, kidneys, stomach, liver, small intestine, skin, heart, adipose tissue, and placenta. Hormones…

and muscle away from the internal structures that I was required to locate in the neck. The internal structures that I had to locate in the neck were the hyoid apparatus, larynx, thyroid gland, trachea, and thymus gland. The hyoid apparatus is a small group of bones located cranial to the larynx that feels like a small marble when one moves their finger over it and applies pressure. The hyoid apparatus is used to anchor the tongue, supports…

The disease is neither contagious or genetic and it mostly affects men who are over 60 or women who are under 40. The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke has recently been doing a lot of research regarding Myasthenia Gravis. For example, a more timely and accurate diagnoses for the disease has been discovered, ss well as new therapies which have improved management of the disorder. Scientists also have an overall better comprehension of the structure and function of the…
