Overview
The exact pathogenesis of Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is not fully understood. It is thought that Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) may be caused by either genetic mutations, brainstem abnormality, airflow obstruction, maternal smoking, or infection.
OR
[Pathogen name] is usually transmitted via the [transmission route] route to the human host.
OR
Following transmission/ingestion, the [pathogen] uses the [entry site] to invade the [cell name] cell.
OR
[Disease or malignancy name] arises from [cell name]s, which are [cell type] cells that are normally involved in [function of cells].
OR
The progression to [disease name] usually involves the [molecular pathway].
OR
The pathophysiology of [disease/malignancy] depends on the histological subtype.
Pathophysiology
Physiology
The normal physiology of [name of process] can be understood as follows:
Pathogenesis
- The exact pathogenesis of Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is not completely understood.
- The pathogenesis of Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) involves the following:
Genetics
- The exact involvement of genetic changes is not clear in the pathogenesis of Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS)[1]
- With the recent research we can say that Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is not a genetic disorder but identification of genetic polymorphisms along with the risk factors increase the risk of developing susceptibility to Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS)[2]
- Such genetic polymorphisms along with the risk factors in the following genes plays a very crucial role in developing Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS):[3][4][5][6][7][8]
- SCN5A gene (Sodium Voltage-Gated Channel Alpha Subunit 5)
- SCN5A gene encodes for ion channels on heart
- SCN4A (Sodium Voltage-Gated Channel Alpha Subunit 4)
- SCN4A gene encodes for ion channels on skeletal muscles
- KCNQ1 (Potassium Voltage-Gated Channel Subfamily Q Member 1)
- KCNQ1 gene encodes for functional potassium channels on heart and inner ear.
- KCNJ8 (Potassium Inwardly Rectifying Channel Subfamily J Member 8)
- KCNJ8 gene encodes for Kir6.1 protein and plays an very important role in cardiac repolarization.
- KCNH2 (Potassium Voltage-Gated Channel Subfamily H Member 2)
- KCNH2 gene encodes for voltage-Gated Potassium Channel Subunit Kv11.1
- RYR2 (Ryanodine receptor 2)
- Serotonin transporter gene
- Monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) gene
- Interleukin-10 promoter gene
- Testis-specific Y-like gene
- Heat shock proteins gene
- SCN5A gene (Sodium Voltage-Gated Channel Alpha Subunit 5)
OR
- It is understood that [disease name] is the result of / is mediated by / is produced by / is caused by either [hypothesis 1], [hypothesis 2], or [hypothesis 3].
- [Pathogen name] is usually transmitted via the [transmission route] route to the human host.
- 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.
Genetics
[Disease name] is transmitted in [mode of genetic transmission] pattern.
OR
Genes involved in the pathogenesis of [disease name] include:
- [Gene1]
- [Gene2]
- [Gene3]
OR
The development of [disease name] is the result of multiple genetic mutations such as:
- [Mutation 1]
- [Mutation 2]
- [Mutation 3]
Associated Conditions
Conditions associated with [disease name] include:
- [Condition 1]
- [Condition 2]
- [Condition 3]
Gross Pathology
On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
Microscopic Pathology
On microscopic histopathological analysis, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
