| [Pathogen name] is usually transmitted via the [transmission route] route to the human host. | | <br style="clear:left" /> |
| Following transmission/ingestion, the [pathogen] uses the [entry site] to invade the [cell name] cell.
| |
| [Disease or malignancy name] arises from [cell name]s, which are [cell type] cells that are normally involved in [function of cells].
| |
| The progression to [disease name] usually involves the [molecular pathway].
| |
| The pathophysiology of [disease/malignancy] depends on the histological subtype.

| ===Immunologic response===
| |
| | |
| ==Genetics==
| |
| There is no known causative genetic factor for Whipple's disease. However, there is an association between Whipple's disease and some immunologic defects.

| |
| | |
| ==Associated Conditions==
| |
| The most important conditions associated with Whipple's disease include:
| |
| * HLA-B27 individuals:
| |
| * Defective T-cell immunity: | |
| | |
| ==Gross Pathology==
| |
| *On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
| |
| | |
| ==Microscopic Pathology==
| |
| *On microscopic histopathological analysis, [[PAS stain|PAS]]-positive [[Macrophage|macrophages]] in the [[lamina propria]] containing non-acid-fast gram-positive [[bacilli]] are characteristic findings of Whipple's disease.<ref name="SchneiderMoos2008">{{cite journal|last1=Schneider|first1=Thomas|last2=Moos|first2=Verena|last3=Loddenkemper|first3=Christoph|last4=Marth|first4=Thomas|last5=Fenollar|first5=Florence|last6=Raoult|first6=Didier|title=Whipple's disease: new aspects of pathogenesis and treatment|journal=The Lancet Infectious Diseases|volume=8|issue=3|year=2008|pages=179–190|issn=14733099|doi=10.1016/S1473-3099(08)70042-2}}</ref>
