Week 6 Case Study Template Pathophysiology & Clinical Findings of the Disease 1. Based on the review of the history, physical and lab findings what is the most likely diabetes diagnosis for this patient? The most likely diabetes diagnosis for this patient is diabetes type 1. Though the criteria of type 1 are the same for type 2, the distinguishing symptoms are polydipsia, polyphagia, polyuria, and weight loss (book). 2. Explain the pathophysiology associated with the chosen diabetes diagn...

Immunology Exam 4 - Questions and Answers Treg cells that express FoxP3 are generally thought to have T-cell receptors that recognize self-peptides bound to MHC class II molecules. In the skin, keratin and filaggrin are among the self-antigens expressed. FoxP3+ Treg cells found in skin and skin-draining lymph nodes might be specific for the self-antigen, filaggrin. These FoxP3+ filaggrin-specific Treg cells: A. Would inhibit the activation of naive filaggrin-specific and keratin-specific CD4 T ...

Diabetes Type I Pathophysiology correct answers Autoimmune-mediated: environmental-genetic factors tiggers cell-mediated destruction of pancreatic beta cells. Idiopathic or non-immune: Secondary to other disease like pancreatitis. Autoantigens bind to beta cells and circulate blood and lymph-->Activation of T helper 1 + 2 lymphocytes-->Macrophages with releases of IL and TNFa, T cytotoxic cells, B lymphocytes to produce islet cells autoantibodies-->Destruction of beta cells with dec...
