Ibuprofen Helps Patients with Cystic Fibrosis
A faulty version of the CFTR gene causes the disease cystic fibrosis (CF). This geneis found in 1 in 25 Caucasians in the United States. A person who inherits a copy of thisgene from each parent develops CF. Thick mucus builds up in the lungs of CF patients,leaving them vulnerable to infections. Over time, this repeated cycle of illness andinflammation causes structural damage to the lungs of the patient. In a recent study, the common pain reliever ibuprofen significantly reduced lungdamage caused by cystic fibrosis. This study included 85 CF patients between the agesof 5 and 39. Half of those participating in the study were given a tablet containingibuprofen, and the other half were given a placebo (a tablet containing no ibuprofen).Ibuprofen, taken along with other treatments, most benefited CF patients between theages of 5 and 13. Patients taking ibuprofen suffered less inflammation of the bronchialtubes. Lung deterioration in the children taking ibuprofen was nearly 90% slower thanexpected. Among those patients taking ibuprofen, lung capacity declined by only 2%,while those taking the placebo experienced a decline of 16%. Researchers recommend that doctors begin the new therapy with their cystic fibrosispatients. However, the treatment involves taking large doses of ibuprofen, which cancause serious side effects, including stomach and kidney damage. The researchers warnpeople with cystic fibrosis not to take ibuprofen without talking with their doctors first. Thirty years ago, most CF patients died before the age of 5. Today, many CF patientslive into their 30's. A new drug for CF, DNase, was approved in 1994. Trials are alsobeing done using gene therapy to correct the faulty gene found in cystic fibrosis patients.Since ibuprofen therapy delays the progression of the disease, it is hoped that morepatients will be able to benefit from gene therapy when it becomes available for generaluse.
A) Lung deterioration in individuals taking ibuprofen was about 16% slower than in those takingthe placebo.
B) Although initially promising, problems with stomach and kidney damage have made mostdoctors unwilling to prescribe ibuprofen for the treatment of cystic fibrosis.
C) Large doses of ibuprofen can be dangerous, but under the care of a doctor the benefits ofibuprofen for individuals with cystic fibrosis can be significant.
D) The most significant reduction in the swelling of the bronchi due to ibuprofen therapy occurredin individuals 15 to 35 years of age.
178. Which statement regarding the use of ibuprofen in the treatment of cystic fibrosis is correct?
A) ibuprofen is now considered the drug of choice, replacing DNase in treating cystic fibrosisB) because of ibuprofen, gene therapy and the use of DNase are no longer considered effective
ways to treat cystic fibrosisC) ibuprofen, with its serious side effects, is too dangerous to use in the treatment of cystic
fibrosisD) in combination with other drugs, ibuprofen reduces lung damage and slows the progress
of cystic fibrosis

Beware of Dust Mites
Quietly lurking within our mattresses, under our beds, and inside sofas and carpets arecreatures too small to be seen without a microscope. Dust mites are arthropods closely related tospiders, scorpions, and ticks. They feed on the dead skin cells regularly shed by humans and theiranimal pets. The average human sheds about 10 grams of dead skin a week. Cats and dogs createeven more dander for dust mites to eat. The mites also eat pollen, fungi, and bacteria. They do notdrink water but absorb it from the air. Dust mites do not carry diseases and are harmless to most people. It's their bathroom habitsthat make some of us itch and sneeze. Many people develop severe allergies to dust mite feces(wastes). If you lie on a rug where dust mites live, you might develop itchy red bumps on yourskin. Breathe in dust containing their feces and you might have more serious symptoms, such asdifficulty breathing or a severe asthma attack. Dust mites thrive in warm, humid environments - eating and nesting in dust-collecting bedding,fabric, and carpet. Think about this! A typical mattress can contain anywhere from 100,000 to 10million dust mites. Nearly 100,000 dust mites can live in one square yard of carpet. During a process called sensitization, a person's immune system mistakenly identifies theinhaled dust mite waste as an invader. The next time the person is exposed to the dust mite waste,the immune system launches an allergic reaction.

Mosquito Technologies of New York, Inc., has developed a Mosquito Killing System (MKS) tohelp control the mosquito population and reduce the transmission of West Nile Virus. The MKSworks by taking advantage of the natural hunting strategies of mosquitoes, such as heat sensingand carbon dioxide detection. Beneficial insects do not use the same hunting strategies. The MKSunit produces heat and releases carbon dioxide in cycles, mimicking the breathing and bodytemperatures of humans, pets, and other warm-blooded animals. This attracts the mosquitoes tothe device and, once inside, a vacuum pulls them in, where they pass through an electrocutiongrid, killing them. The mosquito remains are then returned to the environment through the bottomof the unit. The unit contains a solar-powered photocell that turns the device on at dusk and turns it off atdawn.

112. • identifying organelle X as a mitochondrion.• stating the process this organelle performs.— respiration— aerobic respiration releases energy
• identifying the two raw materials needed for this process to occur.— sugar/glucose— oxygen (O2)
• identifying one molecule produced by this organelle and explaining why it is important to the organism.— ATP - This molecule makes energy available for life functions.— Water - This molecule is important forchemical reactions.— CO2 - This is a waste product that needs to be removed to maintain homeostasis.
166. • State hypothesis. – Bostentan treatment improves the lung function of people with high blood pressure inthe lungs. – Treatment with bosentan will decrease a patient's blood pressure in the lungs. – Treatmentwith bosentan will increase a patient's ability to walk without fatigue. – Bostentan can be used to treat highblood pressure in the lungs.• State how control group will be trated differently from the experimental group. – The control group willnot receive bostentan. – The control group will be given a placebo (or sugar pill).• State two factors that must be kept the same in both experimental and control groups. – same number ofmales and females – similar activities for the 12 weeks – initial high pulmonary blood pressure – samesize pill, given at the same time – similar food, sleep time, etc. – same range of ages• State type of data that should be collected to determine if hypothesis is supported. Responses include, butnot limited to: – Record the initial pulmonary blood pressure in each group. Once a week record thepulmonary blood pressure of each group. – See which individuals can walk the longest without fatigueafter treatment begins and compare this to how long they could walk without fatigue prior to treatment.
223. Examples: a — circulatory: carries nutrients to cells — digestive: breaks down substances or makesnutrients available — respiratory: exchange of gases — excretory: eliminates metabolic wastesb • — circulatory: heart attack, hardening of arteries, disruption of blood flow — digestive: constipation, diarrhea — respiratory: asthma, bronchitis, emphysema — excretory: kidney disease, gout• — hardening of arteries: raises blood pressure — diarrhea: results in dehydration — emphysema: reduced oxygen supply to cells — kidney disease: interferes with excretion of some wastes• — hardening of arteries: exercise — emphysema: do not smoke

238. Examples:Malfunctions associated with the selected system:– digestive - ulcer– circulatory - heart attack– respiratory - emphysema– excretory - kidney stones– nervous - Parkinson's disease
Direct or indirect cause of malfunction identified:– ulcer - excess stomach acid– heart attack - high fat diet– emphysema - smoking– kidney stones - genetic cause– Parkinson's disease - brain stops making a sufficient supply of critical chemical (dopamine)
Effect the malfunction has on any other system:– ulcer - causes bleeding– heart attack - reduces oxygen to the brain– emphysema - reduces oxygen in the circulatory system– kidney stones - stimulates nervous system resulting in pain– Parkinson's disease - involuntary muscular contractions
