Viral Infections and their Role in Autoimmune Diseases, with Emphasis on Mechanisms and Molecular Interactions
Introduction: The exact cause of most autoimmune diseases is still unknown; however, several factors play a role in causing or exacerbating autoimmune reactions. In addition to environmental factors such as bacterial, parasitic, fungal and viral infections, factors such as genetic characteristics and lifestyle are also included. Infections caused by viruses usually trigger a strong immune respo...
متن کاملPossible mechanisms of viral-bacterial interaction in swine (literature review)
R espiratory disease is a frequent and economically significant problem in swine units. The potential loss due to decreased average daily gain and feed efficiency and the cost to prevent or treat pneumonia is substantia1,1,2 Respiratory disease caused by virus or bacteria alone can be exacerbated by a number of environmental and management factors. Numerous researchers3-14 have also shown that ...
متن کاملMolecular mechanisms underlying gallic acid effects against cardiovascular diseases: An update review
Objective: The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is growing. CVDs are the major cause of mortality and have become one of the most important health challenges in developing countries. Gallic acid (GA) is a natural phytochemical which has been widely used against multiple conditions. The present review was designed to evaluate molecular mechanisms underlying the prote...
متن کاملViral and Bacterial Interactions in the Upper Respiratory Tract
Respiratory infectious diseases are mainly caused by viruses or bacteria that often interact with one another. Although their presence is a prerequisite for subsequent infections, viruses and bacteria may be present in the nasopharynx without causing any respiratory symptoms. The upper respiratory tract hosts a vast range of commensals and potential pathogenic bacteria, which form a complex mic...
متن کاملReview of Non-Bacterial Infections in Respiratory Medicine: Viral Pneumonia.
Although bacteria are the main pathogens involved in community-acquired pneumonia, a significant number of community-acquired pneumonia are caused by viruses, either directly or as part of a co-infection. The clinical picture of these different pneumonias can be very similar, but viral infection is more common in the pediatric and geriatric populations, leukocytes are not generally elevated, fe...
