Cystic Fibrosis Lung Disease and Modulator Therapy Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease. Mutations in the CFTR gene impair a chloride channel. Salt and water movement across airway surfaces then fails. Mucus becomes thick. Infection and inflammation follow. The lung pays the highest price. Airway surface liquid normally stays thin enough for cilia to clear […]
How the E1-A226V Mutation Helped Chikungunya Spread Through Aedes albopictus Chikungunya virus usually rides Aedes aegypti. A single amino-acid change later improved its fit for another mosquito. That change is E1-A226V. It replaces alanine with valine at position 226 of the E1 envelope protein. E1 helps the virus fuse with a host cell. Fusion occurs […]

Sarcoidosis of the Lung
Sarcoidosis of the Lung Sarcoidosis is a multisystem disease of unknown cause. Non-caseating granulomas form in affected organs. The lung and the intrathoracic lymph nodes are involved in most patients. Many cases come to light on a chest radiograph done for another reason. Others present with cough, breathlessness, or fatigue. The typical chest pattern is […]
Li-Fraumeni Syndrome and Secondary Bone Sarcoma Li-Fraumeni syndrome is a rare inherited cancer predisposition. A germline TP53 mutation causes it in most families. The gene normally helps control DNA repair and cell death. When it fails, cancers arise at younger ages and in several organs. Classic tumors include soft-tissue sarcoma, osteosarcoma, premenopausal breast cancer, brain […]
Stevens–Johnson Syndrome and Chronic Ocular Surface Damage Stevens–Johnson syndrome is a severe mucocutaneous reaction. It often follows a drug exposure or infection. The acute phase can injure the skin, mouth, and eyes together. Ocular involvement is common and may persist long after the skin heals. In the acute stage, inflammation attacks the eyelid margins, conjunctiva, […]
When Two Epidemics Meet: How Diabetes Changes TB Damage on Scans Scarring and Lasting Breath Tuberculosis and diabetes now travel together in many Indian clinics. Each disease weakens the other. Together they change how lung damage looks on X-ray and CT. They also change how much scar remains after treatment. Long-term breathing capacity often falls […]
