Overview
The exact pathogenesis of [disease name] is not fully understood.
OR
It is thought that [disease name] is the result of / is mediated by / is produced by / is caused by either [hypothesis 1], [hypothesis 2], or [hypothesis 3].
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
Pathogenesis
- Although the exact pathogenesis of non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis is not completely understood[1], endothelial injury correlated with a hypercoagulable state has been implicated.
- The main culprit that has been identified is damage to the endothelium and consequent exposure of subendothelial connective tissue to circulating platelets, platelet deposition and the formation of initial thrombi by the migration of inflammatory mononuclear cells[2].
- Pathogenesis can be sub-sectioned into four factors thought to be involved in instigating NBTE. These include[3];
Immune Complexes
- Circulating immune complexes were first identified in the formation of NBTE by Williams in 1980[9].
- Since that time, immunohistochemical techniques have been used to identify immunoglobulin and complement deposits within vessel walls in the zone of neovascularization of verrucose valvular lesions.[10]
- These findings are especially found in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)[11].
Hypoxia
- Several studies have associated hypoxia with NBTE[12][13][14].
- These studies were conducted in both human[13][12] and animal[14] models and they found that, increased or persistent exposure to hypoxic insult can lead to an increase in circulating tissue factor.
- Tissue factor has been found to lead to a hypercoagulable state, which may have predisposed the studied patient populations to NBTE[12].
Hypercoagulability
- The association between thrombosis and malignancy was first described by Trousseau in 1866[15].
- In 1956 Robbins and MacDonald[16] hypothesized that valvular degeneration and hypercoagulable state played significant roles in the origin/formation of NBTE.
=Carcinomatosis
- The relationship between carcinomatosis and NBTE has been vastly studied and established[17].
- 50% of malignancies associated with NBTEs are adenocarcinomas of the lung and ovary[18][19].
