Microbial pathogenesis: mechanisms of infectious disease.
The FASEB Summer Research Conference on Microbial Pathogenesis: Mechanisms of Infectious Disease was held in Colorado, USA in July 2007. The central theme was the interplay between pathogenic microbes and their mammalian hosts. Here, we review the presented research that highlights this theme, including studies of both short-term and long-term interactions between microbes and their hosts.

متن کاملPolyQ disease pathogenesis mechanisms
481 June 2012, Vol. 102, No. 6 SAMJ Polyglutamine (polyQ) diseases are inherited neurodegenerative conditions caused by expansion of a coding trinucleotide CAG repeat, which is translated into an abnormally long polyQ tract in the mutant protein.1 There are currently 9 known polyQ diseases: Huntington disease (HD), dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA), spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (SB...
متن کاملMechanisms of Gaucher disease pathogenesis.
Gaucher disease is caused by mutations in the Gba1 gene encoding an acid β-glucocerebrosidase (GBA1), the lysosomal hydrolase which breaks down glucosylceramide (GlcCer). In Gaucher type 1 disease the accumulation of this simple glycolipid is mainly restricted to tissue phagocyte lysosomes resulting ultimately in hepatomegaly, splenomegaly and osteopenia. Lower residual GBA1 levels leads to neu...
متن کاملInfectious Disease: Pathogenesis, Prevention and Case Studies
The authors have assembled a collection of case studies about the 40 infectious diseases that cause the most illness and death worldwide. Each chapter begins with a brief case presentation. This example is followed by a section on microbiologic aspects of the organism, including the pathophysiology of infection. The host response is then described, followed by a discussion of clinical manifesta...
