- Type I diabetes is caused by destruction of the beta cells of the pancreas, the cells that produce insulin. In most cases, the beta cells are destroyed by an immune response. Both genetic and environmental factors are involved in triggering the immune response. NOD mice develop a disease very much like Type I diabetes. (NOD mouse = non-obese, diabetic, mouse). If you transfer plasma from a NOD mouse to a normal mouse, the normal is not affected. If you transfer lymphocytes (WBCs white blood cells) from a NOD mouse, the normal mouse develops diabetes. The first people to figure this out found they had to transfer two types of WBC to transfer diabetes. After some experiments, they found that under the right conditions, they only had to transfer one type of cell to cause diabetes in the recipient. B-1. Consider the one type of WBC that can cause diabetes by itself. Which type is it likely to be?

The sympathetic nervous system increases blood pressure in the short term by increasing cardiac output and peripheral resistance. b. A sudden increase or decrease in blood pressure triggers the baroreceptor reflex, which is mediated by the medulla and the autonomic nervous system. c. Hormones that decrease blood volume and blood pressure include antidiuretic hormone and aldosterone. d. Angiotensin-II is a chemical that produces profound vasoconstriction. e. The kidneys control blood pressure directly through adjustment of blood volumearrow_forwardGiven: Your cousin Sofia has not been feeling well lately. She felt hot and anxious all the time, and experienced raised heart rate (> 100 times/sec), palpitation, insomnia, and weight loss (>10 pounds). After multiple doctors’ visits, she was diagnosed with Graves’ disease. Please answer the following questions: Why did Sofia have the above symptoms? The doctors found the T3 and T4 levels in Sofia’s blood were much higher than normal standards, and her TSH level was zero. Please explain why? An endocrinologist prescribed a medicine called methimazole for Sofia. Methimazole blocks the iodination of tyrosyl residues and, therefore, inhibits the synthesis of T3 and T4 in thyroid gland. The doctor said it will take one or two months for the drug to lower Sofia’s hormone level. Please explain why it would take so long for Sofia to finally feel better. (Answer 1,2,3)arrow_forward
