- 188. A 3-year-old boy is brought to the physician because of a 6-month history of a sway back when standing. His brother had a history of muscle weakness and died of pneumonia at the age of 12 years. Physical examination shows hip girdle weakness. His serum creatine kinase concentration is markedly increased. This patient's symptoms are most likely caused by the accumulation of a defective protein in which of the following locations in muscle cells? A) Cytoplasm B) Lysosome C) Mitochondria D) Nuclear membrane E) Peroxisome F) Smooth endoplasmic reticulum harrow_forwardKelly has breast cancer. Her doctors determined her breast cancer wasaggressive, which meant that she needed to undergo chemotherapy. Her doctors recommended a combination of docetaxel (Taxotere®), carboplatin, and trastuzumab (Herceptin®). The following is her blog entry after her second chemo treatment: As far as chemo symptoms go, the biggest has been fatigue. I was just tired, grumpy, and not my usual, peppy self most of the week. Other very minor things—tiny bit of stomach upset at the beginning of the week, but just enough to make me not feel like eating a big steak, not enough to keep me from eating soup or sandwiches. My scalp felt a little irritated—for the girls out there, itwas the feeling of having my hair in a tight ponytail all day and then letting it down, and the follicles just feel prickly—this is normal for several daysbefore the hair falls out. Also, I have a weird dry mouth feeling, so some things taste a little different. But seriously, these are really minor…arrow_forwardDescribe one connection between the structure of protein and brain degenerative diseasesarrow_forward
