UV radiation, such as that from the sun can be very harmful. It has been shown to cause many different mutations within cells, leading to issues for the organism such as death or disease. One of the most prevalent sources of UV radiation for humans is the sun. It’s very important for us to know the extent of cellular damage that can be caused by this radiation, as to know how harmful the sun’s rays are to us as humans. One way that the damage caused by the suns radiation can be tested is through

recommend a blood test called a D-dimer test, which picks up on pieces of blood clot that have dispersed into your bloodstream. An ultrasound scan will also be carried out to confirm DVT, because blood clot fragments can increase during pregnancy. A Doppler ultrasound, a type of scan that can determine how fast the blood is flowing through a blood vessel, can help doctors establish whether blood flow is slowed or blocked, which could the result of a blood clot. If a D-dimer test an ultrasound scan cannot

Introduction- Cell-surface receptors are integral membrane proteins that play a major role in signal transduction, allowing the function of Neurons, muscles and sensory organs to occur. Their basic function is to carry out the process of signal transduction by binding to an extracellular signalling molecule. Cell-surface receptors regulate gene transcription, ion flux in the neurons and growth factors. This regulation allows the human body to function with little error. They detect the smallest of

Kaitlin Zoccola Paper 10 Summary Physiologically important secondary modifications of red cell membrane in hereditary Spherocytosis- evidence for in vivo oxidation and lipid rafts protein variations The experimental research published in the article, Physiologically important secondary modifications of red cell membrane in hereditary spherocytosis- evidence for in vivo oxidation and lipid rafts protein variations by Margetis, Antonelou, Karababa, Loutradi, Margaritis, and Papassideri, attempts to

The effect of UV Light on Single-celled Saccharomyces cerevisiae Summary The sun is a source of UV light that is very hard for most people to escape. It affects our cells in various ways and sometimes causes cell death. In this experiment, to inspect the damage done by UV irradiation on the genetic composition of Saccharomyces cerevisiae also known as common Baker’s yeast. The strains of this yeast used were the cells that were mutated and the TRP1 gene was inactive. In this strain, the cells

interact to form a structure similar to a roll shape. The wing domain contains a glycosylation site and also two subdomains. The B- ladder domain, which is the most essential portion of the structure, which contains 10 B- strands, which extends along the dimer. This study also concluded that the dimensions of NS1 are 85 Angstroms along the B- ladder, 95 Angstroms in width, and 35 Angstroms in the last dimension (Akey et al., 2016). Although discoveries regarding the structure of NS1 have been made, there

TXA prevents plasminogen’s conversion to plasmin. The inactivated plasminogen will then allow the clot to become more secure. Because of plasmin’s inherent ability to degrade fibrinogen, the patient’s d-dimer which measures fibrin degradation products, the patient with ATC will have elevated d-dimer levels. Low fibrinogen levels in a patient with ATC warrants cryoprecipitate infusion and has been associated with increased survival outcomes (Rourke, 2012). Impaired platelet function has been described

Institute, only 50% of them has symptoms. In my unit, we do a thorough teaching about DVT, and observe very closely. If there are any symptoms, then we do an ultra sonogram. Current evidence strongly recommends doing a D-dimer assay if there is any suspicion. Positive D-dimer shows that there has been a thrombus and breakdown in the body. CT venography help to see any clots distal to inguinal ligament.MRI is more accurate than any of these tests. Nursing interventions which we does on our

How does UV radiation affect prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells? In this experiment, saccharomyces cerevisiae, a type of yeast, and the K-12 strain of E.coli will be exposed to UV radiation. In order to conduct this experiment, one must understand what yeast, saccharomyces cerevisiae, E.coli, and UV radiation are, and how UV radiation affects a cell. This report introduces yeast then goes over the description, importance, and structure of saccharomyces cerevisiae, a certain species of yeast, and E

Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) NER is more complex biochemical complex than BER. The problem that needs NER system to repair the cell is when pyrimidine dimers occur. The nuclease will detect the mutation and remove the lesion on the DNA strand. Then polymerase will go through the DNA strand again and add new and correct base needed on that stand. Then ligase will seal the strand, and a new healthy DNA strand
