analyzed for biochemical parameters such as serum urea‚ uric acid and electrolytes. Serum urea was measured using the commercially available kit (Liquicheck AGAPPE Diagnostics LTD)‚ following the GLDH-Urease method (Tietz‚ 1976). The amount of creatinine in serum was estimated using Liquicheck AGAPPE Diagnostics commercial kit according to Picrate method (Cook‚ 1975). Serum uric acid level was determined using commercially available Biosystems Uric acid kit by Uricase method (Fossati et al.‚ 1980). Estimation

Grand Canyon University Biology 100 Lecture Abstract Homeostatic imbalance is the disturbance of normal homeostasis in the body. This paper is on the disease of gout caused by a homeostatic imbalance. Due to the kidney’s inability to filter uric acid it starts to build up in the joints and cause pain‚ tenderness‚ redness‚ warmth and swelling in the joints. Gout usually attacks the joint of the big toe‚ but it can also attack the joints in the knees‚ ankles‚ feet‚ hands‚ wrists and elbows.

Urie Bronfenbrenner argues that in order to understand the cycle of how a humandevelops one must take into consideration the entire ecological system of ones life spam wherethe human grows(Myers 2013).Bronfenbrenner’s ecological model is made of five subsystems:Microsystems‚ Mesosysten‚ Exosystem‚ Macrosystem‚ and Chronosystem. These systems are setup to help the human grow physically and mentally through out the long life course. The modelhelps to understand how everything in a child’s environment

electrolyte depletion such as hypokalemia. Less common side effects include jaundice‚ ringing in the ears (tinnitus)‚ sensitivity to light (photophobia)‚ rash‚ pancreatitis‚ nausea‚ diarrhea‚ abdominal pain‚ and dizziness. Increased blood sugar and uric acid levels also may occur. When hypertonic fluids are infused‚ osmosis pulls water out of the cells and causes the cells to shrink resulting cells to get rid of excessive free water. The side effect includes‚ when they shrink at the site of

purine salvage pathway. Mutation in the HPRT gene are manifested at varying degrees of expressivity. For example‚ in men with 20% HPRT deficiency‚ hyperuricemia is a common result. This leads to high levels of uric acid in the blood‚ which causes gouty arthritis and/or the formation of uric acid stone in the urinary tract. Collectively‚ these symptoms categorize Kelly-Seegmiller syndrome. Female carriers of the disease are at increased risk for gouty arthritis. LNS can also cause deleyed growth and

conversion of hypoxanthine to xanthine to uric acid. At therapeutic concentrations it does not inhibit other enzymes involved in purine and pyrimidine synthesis. Its key pharmological action is that is reduces serum uric acid levels in the body. Uloric’s pharmacodynamic properties include a dose dependent decrease in 24-hour mean serum uric acid concentrations and an increase in 24-hour mean serum xanthine concentrations. In addition‚ it decreases daily urinary uric acid excretion and an increase in
