Analytical study of results of experimental and theoretical works on pathogenesis of psoriatic disease was conducted. Psoriasis is dermal implication of systemic psoriatic process (SPP). New SPP model explaining results of clinical and…
Disease psoriasis occurs as chronic inflammation of skin and appears as scaly red lesions on skin surface. Advent of several immunosuppressive drugs established that the disease stems from immuno-pathogenic disorder in human blood. Cell…
A review of recent investigations into pathogenesis of psoriasis summarizing data on the relationship between the presence {\beta}-streptococci in the organism and the cutaneous immune reaction. Results of the studies on gastrointestinal…

We present a computational model to study the spatiotemporal dynamics of the epidermis homeostasis under normal and pathological conditions. The model consists of a population kinetics model of the central transition pathway of keratinocyte…
The initial reaction of the body to pathogenic microbial infection or severe tissue trauma is an acute inflammatory response. The magnitude of such a response is of critical importance, since an uncontrolled response can cause further…
The adaptive and innate branches of the vertebrate immune system work in close collaboration to protect organisms from harmful pathogens. As an organism ages its immune system undergoes immunosenescence, characterized by declined…
Background: Psoriasis is a multifactorial chronic inflammatory disorder of the skin with significant morbidity, characterized by hyper proliferation of the epidermis. Even though psoriasis etiology is not fully understood, it is believed to…
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by joint inflammation and joint pain. Much of RA treatment is focused on suppressing inflammation, with the idea being that if inflammation is controlled other…
When the body is infected, it mounts an acute inflammatory response to rid itself of the pathogens and restore health. Uncontrolled acute inflammation due to infection is defined clinically as Sepsis and can culminate in organ failure and…
Atherosclerosis is characterised by the growth of fatty plaques in the inner (intimal) layer of the artery wall. In mature plaques, vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are recruited from the adjacent medial layer to deposit a cap of fibrous…
Current CoVID-19 pandemic is spreading rapidly worldwide, and it may become one of the largest pandemic events in modern history if out of control. It appears most of the SARS-CoV2 virus infection resulted deaths are mainly due to…
Various theoretical studies have been carried out to infer relevant protein-protein interactions among pathogens and their hosts. Such studies are generally based on preferential attachment of bacteria / virus to their human receptor…
We model the immune surveillance of a pathogen which passes through $n$ immunologically distinct stages. The biological parameters of this system induce a partial order on the stages, and this, in turn, determines which stages will be…
Atherosclerotic plaque growth is characterised by chronic inflammation that promotes accumulation of cellular debris and extracellular fat in the inner artery wall. This material is highly thrombogenic, and plaque rupture can lead to the…
Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) play a fundamental role in the development of atherosclerotic plaques. They ingest lipids in a similar way to monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) in the plaque. This can stimulate SMCs to undergo a phenotypic…
Uncontrolled, excessive production of pro-inflammatory mediators from immune cells and traumatized tissues can cause systemic inflammatory issues like sepsis, one of the ten leading causes of death in the United States and one of the three…
The immune response to a pathogen has two basic features. The first is the expansion of a few pathogen-specific cells to form a population large enough to control the pathogen. The second is the process of differentiation of cells from an…
Neural inflammation immediately follows the onset of ischemic stroke. During this process, microglial cells can be activated into two different phenotypes: the M1 phenotype, which can worsen brain injury by producing pro-inflammatory…
The temporal and spatial development of Parkinson's disease has been characterised as the progressive formation of {\alpha}-synuclein aggregations through susceptible neuronal pathways. This article describes a new model for this…
