Introduction

The SNAP-25 is the synaptosomal-associated protein 25 which generated different primary and secondary effects on animals and human being including death. The most important symptoms (Huang, 2004) of the SNAP-25 are: ■ Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder: This affects the attention, excessive activity and difficulties in control behavior. Extreme situations may cause death. ■ RS362584 polymorphism in genes causing neuroticism in living beings, including humans. The neuroticism causes anxiety, fear, worry and frustration in individuals. In extreme cases, its causes the death.

The SNAP-25 biologically interrupts and destroys links and the structure of the ribonucleic acid of the cells.

In a laboratory analysis, the degradation of SNAP-25 will cause death if it is degraded to less than 25%. The ...

The Relationship between H. Pylori Infection and Mitochondrial Microsatellite Instability in Gastric Carcinogenesis

Recent research has established that while there are a number of steps that take place in the development of gastric cancer, Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) plays a major role. However, the mechanism of the influence remains unidentified. Researchers Ling et al. (2016) conducted a study to determine relationships between an infection of H. pylori, IL-8, and mtMSI and whether there is a trigger that causes the infection to progress to intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia, and ultimately to gastric carcinogenesis.   The method used by the researchers included fresh samples from resected gastric cancerous cells and comparison samples of potentially pre-cancerous mucosa; ...

Multiple Choice Questions

Increased erythropoietin production Increased heart rate Increased cardiac output Enhancement in oxygen extraction The answer for this question is b. increased heart rate. A reduction in tissue oxygenation as happens in anemia stimulates increased production of erythropoietin through a complex feedback mechanism. Increased production of erythropoietin enhances erythropoiesis in anemia. Increased extraction of oxygen in anemia is a compensatory mechanism that is mediated by an increase in 2, 3-diphosphoglycerate concentrations. Increased cardiac output is the main hemodynamic compensatory mechanism in anemia that aims to increase blood flow to the body organs. An increase in heart rate ...

Organization:

The human body is home to a variety of organisms ranging from the minute bacteria to eukaryotic mites. Demodex folliculorum is a small arthropod that lives in human hair follicles and sebaceous glands. D. folliculorum and the closely related D. brevis live in a commensal relationship on humans and are harmless in the normal course of events. Demodex was first discovered by Henle in 1841 and described by Simon Akbulatova in 1842. The existence of the mite in cadavers was established by Stcherbatchoff in 1903 and later by Gmeiner in 1908. Riechers and Kopf in 1969 showed that maximum ...

Mechanical ventilation (MV) causes oxidative stress that is responsible for adverse consequences on organs. In a situation of MV, the excessive pressure impairs the function of the mitochondrial respiratory chain leading to oxidative and nitrosative stress (Kavazis, 2009; Hafner et al., 2014). MV is commonly associated with hyperoxia where an excess of oxygen is provided. In such a case an oxidative stress can be induced when the oxygen pressure in the alveolar exceeds that of the normal breathing conditions because the biological system is not able to readily detoxify the environment from components such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) ( ...

Introduction

Parkinson Disease (PD) is a very complicated neurodegenerative condition including the motor and non-motor manifestations that lead to neuronal loss. Currently, only symptomatic therapies are available but nothing is known yet to prevent this degenerative process. This is a multi-factorial condition with multiple risk factors that includes increasing age, genetic vulnerability, and environmental determinants. All these factors mutually play a role in the pathogenic process of PD. Medical sciences have achieved major advances in understanding the process working behind PD development that are Nigral Dopaminergic Apoptosis, Protein ...

Healthy behaviors play a key role in daily life. Yet, certain unhygienic practices tend to interfere with the health and induce a risk to the overall life. These practices could be high-fat diet, alcohol, and smoking. There is a need to know much about these. In such context, the present description deals with a topic “ What will kill you first, a smoking, a high-fat diet or alcohol?”.

Health -related risk factors:

A risk factor is any quality, trademark or presentation of a person that improves the probability of building up an ailment or damage. A few illustrations of the more vital danger elements ...

Introduction

Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are vital reactions in living organisms since without the two; there would be no life on earth. Cellular respiration involves a set of metabolic reactions that take place in cells of living organisms thereby converting nutrients like sugar into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) (Osterhoudt & Barhydt, 2010). On the other hand, photosynthesis involves the conversion of carbon dioxide into organic compounds by the photoautotroph in the presence of sunlight. Most animals attain their energy requirements through cellular respiration while on the other hand; photosynthesis is performed by most plants that can make their food. These two reactions ...

The appearance of modern humans has changed greatly over the 2 million years or so after evolving from the Australopithecines and the appearance of Homo habilis who was the first human ancestor to fall under the homo genus and lived about 2.4 million years ago. Homo Erectus followed living between 1.3 to 1.8 million years ago. Homo erectus fossils have been found in Africa, China, India and Java. here was a cranium found in Bodo, Africa in 1976, the Peking man found in China. Although they lived in varying environments the Homo Erectus had a number of universal traits. ...
