Tight junctions (TJs) are occluding junctions which act as barriers that control paracellular permeability and regulate trans-epithelial water and solute movement. The structures are composed of integral transmembrane proteins that link adjacent cells‚ with an effect on cell-cell adhesion and epithelial permeability. It also works as a boundary between the apical and basolateral plasma membrane domains to create the polarisation of endothelial and epithelial cells. These junctions are comprised of

Case Study 1 1. The Neuromuscular junction uses synapses to connect the muscular system with the muscular system. A nerve impulse is sent from the brain down to the motor neuron by way of the axon. Acetylcholine is released after the vesicles break open. Sodium channels are opened from Acetylcholine that bonds to the Acetylcholine receptors. Depolarization happens when Acetylcholine causes an area of the muscle fiber to become a little more positive when it leaves the nerve and docks on receptors

IN 35 YR OLD WORKING‚ INDEPENDENT‚ SINGLE MOTHER‚ PRESENTING WITH FATIGUE‚ AND ISSUES WITH FACIAL‚ AND EYE MUSCLES INTRODUCTION Myasthenia Gravis‚ (MG)‚ which means “grave muscle weakness” is a disorder classified as a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease (NINDS‚ 2010). This disease causes weakness in the muscles of the peripheral nervous system. The more frequently the muscle is used‚ the more likely it is to be affected. Thus‚ the first muscles affected are typically those involved

QUESTIONS Q1 DISCUSS THE CHROMOSOMAL BASICS OF SEX DETERMINATION The chromosomal basis of sex varies with the organism. In most species‚ sex is determined by the presence or absence of special chromosomes. As a result of meiotic segregation‚ each gamete has one sex chromosome to contribute at fertilization. Sex determination is strictly chromosomal and is not usually influenced by the environment. There are two types of sex namely Heterogametic sex: The sex that produces two kinds of gametes
