1. Autoimmune reactions against heat shock proteins (HSPs), particularly HSP60, may play an important role in the early development of atherosclerosis by attracting immune cells into the arterial wall.
2. HSPs released from dying cells in advanced atherosclerotic plaques can stimulate the innate immune response and promote inflammation, attracting more immune cells and linking to complications like plaque rupture.
3. Both humoral and cellular immune responses against HSP60 work together with classical risk factors to develop and progress atherosclerosis.

A Christian’s relationship with God is vital to a Christian walk but other relationships and friendships require a reflection on the Christians personal walk with the superior being.
Summary on biblical friendships
Relationships gain more strength through proximity. The physical presence of friends is a source of joy and strength to a Christian. Distance makes friendship more difficult. For example, according to II John 12, John knew that he would be happier if he went to his own people and speak to them face to face (Dietrich B. 19).
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
1. Atherosclerosis, an Autoimmune Disease?
What could be the culprit antigen(s)? A brief appraisal of the role
of heat shock proteins.

2. In1856 Virchow described atherosclerosis as
“endarteritis”. A century later Russel Ross named
atherosclerosis “an inflammatory disease”. Ross
likened atherosclerosis to other chronic inflammatory
diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and
glomerulonephritis. 1
The central role of immune system in atherosclerosis
and its clinical complications is now widely accepted.
Many investigators are searching to find out what
antigens attract immune cells into the arterial wall and
possibly later on into atherosclerotic plaques. 2,3,4
Autoantibodies against oxidized low-density lipoprotein
(oxLDL), cardiolipin, beta2-glycoprotein-I and heat-
shock protein 60/65 have been suggested. 2
3. Georg Wick, Qingbo Xu, and colleagues have
hypothesized that an autoimmune reaction
against heat shock protein 60s, expressed by
endothelial cells in areas that are subject to
increased hemodynamic stress, is the initiating
event in atherogenesis.5,6
The hypothesis indicates that because a high
degree of antigenic homology exists between
microbial (bacterial and parasitic) and human
HSP60, the 'cost' of immunity to microbes
might be the danger of cross-reactivity with
human HSP60 expressed by the endothelial
cells of stressed arteries subjected to classical
risk factors.7
4. Two major families of HSPs (60s and 70s) have
been related to atherosclerosis. Unlike HSP60s,
HSP70s are not reported as strong triggers of
autoimmune reactions, however, Bond, Johnson
and colleagues have suggested certain role for
HSP70s in atherosclerosis. 8,9
Chen et al described autologous hsp60 as a danger
signal to the innate immune system.10
Xu et al. showed induction of arteriosclerosis in
normocholesterolemic rabbits by immunization with
heat shock protein 65. 5
George, Afek, and colleagues reported induction of
arteriosclerosis in normocholesterolemic rabbits by
immunization with heat shock protein 65. 11,12
5. A number of other experimental and observational
studies have shown a significant relationship between
heat shock proteins and atherosclerosis. 9,11,13,14
In humans, expression of HSP60 is correlated
positively with atherosclerotic severity, with the highest
levels of expression seen in the shoulder regions and
around the necrotic core of atherosclerotic plaques. 15
6. In addition to its antigenic properties, bacterial HSP60
product may stimulate macrophages by production of
cytokines such as TNF-α and also MMPs. It may as
well interfere with innate immunity by binding to CD14
and activating monocytes and/or macrophages and
endothelial cells. 8, 21, 22
Bocharov et al reported that HSP60 is a high-affinity
high-density lipoprotein binding protein suggesting a
potential mechanism to explain the known association
between immunity developed against HSP60 and the
development of atherosclerosis. 16
7. Comparing the similarities between atherosclerosis
and other autoimmune disorders such as
rheumatoid arthritis (as indicated by Ross in the
following slide) can also give some hints about the
potential role of autoimmune mechanisms in
atherosclerosis and it’s complications. 1
Interestingly, recent studies have uncovered an
important role for heat shock proteins in
pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis. 17,18
Like in rheumatoid arthritis, the suggested role of
HSPs in atherosclerosis may also in part explain
the missing link between infectious agents and
atherosclerosis where a high degree of antigenic
homology between human and microbial HSPs can
cause cross-reaction. 17,7

9. Kanwar, Krissansen, et al. found that
expression of HSP60 and HSP70 was strongly
upregulated very early at lesion-prone sites in
the aortas of young apoE-/- knockout mice and
then dramatically down-regulated in the chronic
lesions of aged mice. 20
They showed that HSP60 and HSP70 were
detectable in the aortas of 3-week-old apoE-/-
mice and were highly expressed in the aortas
of 8-week-old mice. 20
10. Kanwar et al. indicated that in 8-week-old
apoE-/- mice, HSP60 and 70 were strongly
expressed at valve commissures of the aortic
sinus, extending to the free aortic wall and
including expression by endothelial and intimal
cells. 20
They concluded that HSP60 and HSP70 were
heterogeneously expressed in lesions of 20-
week-old mice. HSP60 and HSP70 were
strongly expressed in advanced plaques of the
abdominal aorta of 20-week-old mice, whereas
medial layers lack expression. 20
11. In 69-week-old mice, there was complete loss
of HSP60 and HSP70 in advanced
complicated collagen-rich plaques of the
aortic sinus. (down-regulated in aged mice) 20
As a result of this study, lesion-prone sites
displayed strong endothelial HSP60
expression, whereas non–lesion-prone sites
of the distal abdominal aorta lacked hsp
expression. 20
Monocytes/macrophages expressing HSP70
and hsp60 (data not shown) were the most
prominent cell type in lesions. 20
12. Summary:Summary:
1- Autoimmune reactions (cellular and humoral) against
HSPs particularly HSP60s may play an important role
in early stage development of atherosclerosis.
2- HSP60s and HSP70s released from necrotic cells in
the core area of advanced plaques may stimulate the
innate immune response to promote inflammation and
attract new inflammatory cells thereby may link to
complications of plaque such as rupture and or
thrombosis.
3- Humoral and cellular reactions against HSP60 work in
conjunction with classical proven CVD risk factors.
13. Debates:Debates:
I. According to our current body of knowledge, the
development of atherosclerosis seems to have two
major preceding components, metabolic disorder
(lipid abnormality etc.) and inflammatory disorder
(enhanced immune or autoimmune response). The
question is which one comes first?
II. Since the complication of atherosclerosis (vulnerable
plaque) is more important than it’s development
(stable plaque), the question is which one of the two
(1-metabolic, 2-Immune) components of
atherosclerosis plays a more important role?
14. Debates:Debates:
III. How feasible is the idea of vaccination against HSPs
or oxidized-LDL or other suggested antigens? Can
we induce tolerance against HSPs without damaging
the innate immune system?
IV. Which one is more feasible? Eradication of
atherosclerosis by vaccination against triggers of
plaque development, or, eradication of vulnerable
plaque by vaccination against triggers of plaque
vulnerability?
