• WBR0671  + (Hepatic cirrhosis is characterized by the … Hepatic cirrhosis is characterized by the presence of diffuse fibrosis and nodular regeneration in the liver.

Following ingestion, vitamin A, a lipid soluble vitamin, undergoes hepatic metabolism, whereby hepatic parenchymal cells absorb vitamin A in the form of retinyl esters. Parenchymal cells metabolize the retinyl esters, which is subsequently transferred to the stellate cells for either storage with other long-chain fatty acids or mobilization into the plasma (bound to RBP).bilization into the plasma (bound to RBP).)

• WBR0256  + (Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) … Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an acquired bleeding disorder caused by decreased production and increased destruction of platelets due to formation of auto-antibodies against GpIIb/IIIa. ITP is associated with several environmental exposures, including hematological malignancies, HIV infection, HCV infection, and lupus erythematosus. The long history of bleeding and normal platelet counts make ITP a less likely diagnosis in this patient.P a less likely diagnosis in this patient.)
• WBR0081  + (If the infection occurs within 13–26 weeks after conception there is a 23% chance the infant will be affected by the disease. This is not the trimester during which the patient is at highest risk.)

• WBR0295  + (In inflammation, redness and warmth are a result of histamine-mediated vasodilation of arterioles.)
• WBR0352  + (In patients on statins liver enzymes Aspartate and Alanine transaminases should be monitored regularly as statins cause elevation in the levels)
• WBR235  + (In the classical muscle contraction pathwa … In the classical muscle contraction pathway, stimuli (e.g. histamine) initially bind to Gq protein-coupled receptors located on the surface of vascular smooth muscle cells. The binding process activates phospholipase C, which mediates the synthesis of both 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG). IP3 then binds to receptors on the sarcoplasmic reticulum to mediate the mobilization of stored calcium into the cytosol. As cytosolic calcium concentration increases, calcium/calmodulin complexes form and activate MLCK, which result in the phosphorylation of myosin light chain and smooth muscle contraction.light chain and smooth muscle contraction.)
