Η νεφρική ανεπάρκεια αποτελεί σημαντική επιπλοκή σε ασθενείς με πολλαπλό μυέλωμα. Κατά την πρωτοδιάγνωση εμφανίζεται σε ποσοστά από 18-56% των ασθενών. Ο κύριος παθογενετικός μηχανισμός είναι η εναπόθεση των ελαφρών αλυσίδων που υπερπαράγονται, διηθούνται ελεύθερα από το σπείραμα και καθιζάνουν στα νεφρικά σωληνάρια ως κύλινδροι μαζί με τις πρωτείνες Tam-Horsfat. Το αποτέλεσμα είναι η απόφραξη και η νεφρική ανεπάρκεια (cast nephropathy).
Translation - English
Renal failure constitutes a significant complication in patients with multiple myeloma. During protodiagnosis this appears at a rate of 18-56% of patients. The core pathogenic mechanism is the storage of over produced light chains. These are freely infiltrated into the glomerulus and settle in the renal tubules as casts together with Tam-Horsfat protein. This results in obstruction and renal failure (cast nephropathy).

Η τοξικότητα της παρακεταμόλης οφείλεται στην παραγωγή ενός εκ των μεταβολιτών της, της Ν-ακετυλ-ρ-βενζοκινονεϊμίνης (NABQI), η οποία αδρανοποιείται με σύνδεση με γλουταθειόνη και αποβάλλεται συνεζευγμένη με μερκαπτοπουρίνη και κυστεΐνη. Στις περιπτώσεις υπερδοσολογίας τα αποθέματα της γλουταθειόνης εξαντλούνται και η ελεύθερη NABQI ενώνεται με θειοϋδρυλικές ομάδες στα ηπατοκύτταρα, τα οποία έτσι καταστρέφονται.
Translation - English
Paracetamol toxicity is due to the production of one of its metabolites, N -acetyl-p-benzoquinone-imine (NAPQI), which is detoxified by conjugation with glutathione and exerted as mercaptopurine and cysteine conjugates. In the case of overdosage, the glutathione stores are depleted and the free NAPQI binds with the sulfhydryl groups in the hepatocytes, which are destroyed.

Bio
Born in Melbourne, Australia I moved to Greece in 1993. After deciding which direction I wanted to take, I started working as a translator whilst studying at the British Council. After gaining experience from the various in-house translation positions over the years, I can confidently say that the job will be done on time, efficiently and conscientiously. In 2009, I started my own business working as a freelance translator from the comfort of my own home and I have never looked back since. My partners comprise of large translation companies within Greece and Europe as well as private customers.
