Modeling immune system control of atherogenesis
MOTIVATION Atherosclerosis is a disease that is present in almost all humans, typically beginning in early adolescence. It is a human disease broadly investigated, that is amenable to quantitative analysis. Oxidized low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) and their autoantibodies are involved in the development of atherosclerosis in animal models, but their role in humans is still not clear. Computer m...
متن کاملThe modeling of body's immune system using Bayesian Networks
In this paper, the urinary infection, that is a common symptom of the decline of the immune system, is discussed based on the well-known algorithms in machine learning, such as Bayesian networks in both Markov and tree structures. A large scale sampling has been executed to evaluate the performance of Bayesian network algorithm. A number of 4052 samples wereobtained from the database of the Tak...
متن کاملThematic review series: The immune system and atherogenesis. Cytokine regulation of macrophage functions in atherogenesis.
This review will focus on the role of cytokines in the behavior of macrophages, a prominent cell type of atherosclerotic lesions. Once these macrophages have immigrated into the vessel wall, they propagate the development of atherosclerosis by modifying lipoproteins, accumulating intracellular lipids, remodeling the extracellular environment, and promoting local coagulation. The numerous cytoki...
متن کاملEffects of Maternal Immune System Status on Neonate’s Immune System
Background: This study evaluated the effects of the maternal immune system stimulation or suppression during the pregnancy on the development of the neonate’s immune system.Methods: A total of 20 female rats were divided into four groups. The groups were treated using Leishmania major, Salmonella typhimurium, Tacrolimus, and sterilized normal saline. The animals were mated after 3-time tr...
متن کاملPromise of immune modulation to inhibit atherogenesis.
t is now widely recognized that the evolving atherosclerotic esion has nearly all of the characteristics of a chronic nflammatory disease, including the active participation of any arcs of immune function. That immune mechanisms lay an important, if not dominant, role once atherosclerosis as been initiated is attested to by scores of examples in hich manipulations of both adaptive and innate im...
