Definition
Leukoplakia is defined as ‘white patch’ or ‘plaque’ in the oral cavity, which cannot be scraped off or stripped off easily and more over which cannot be charectarized clinically or pathologically as any other disease. –WHO
Redefined as a “ predominantly white lesion of oral mucosa that cannot be characterized as any other definable lesion; some oral leukoplakia will transform into cancer” (Axell T, 1996)

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

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

2. What is leukoplakia ?
Leukoplakia (white patch) is the most common potentially malignant
lesion of the oral mucosa
As many lesion have same clinical features as leucoplakia hence It usage
should be limited clinically .It sometime misleading to directly jump to this before
excluding all the lesions like lichen planus ,morsicatio (chronic cheek bite )
Histologically leucoplakia represents an area localized in distribution,
hyperkeratotic in nature and white in appearance due to wetting of the
keratotic patch while in contact with saliva
Diagnosis of leukoplakia generally suggest that
The mucosa is
irritated by either
mechanical,
chemical or
galvanic means, and
The mucosa is
trying to adapt to
the noxious
stimuli by
undergoing
hyperkeratinizatio
n
3. Definable White Lesions
Hyperplastic candidiasis (candidal leucoplakia). When dealing
with a hyperplastic epithelial lesion in which the presence of
Candida albicans is demonstrated, it is referred to as candida-
associated leukoplakia
Hairy leukoplakia (Greenspan lesion)- the lesion is not
premalignant in nature. Therefore, the use of the term should be
abandoned. As an alternative, the term Greenspan lesion’ has been
suggested.
Tobacco-induced white lesions- Smoker’s palate (leukokeratosis
nicotina palati), palatal keratosis in reverse smokers and snuff
dippers lesions are clearly related to tobacco use
Tobacco-associated leucoplakia -The etiological role of tobacco in
patients who smoke cigarettes, cigars or pipes is less obvious.
Therefore, preference has been given to the term ‘tobacco-
associated leukoplakia’ (leukoplakia in smokers) over the term
‘tobacco-induced white lesions
Hairy leukoplakia
Candidal leukoplakia
4. Hairy leukoplakia
• HAIRY LEUKOPLAKIA IS A WHITE PATCH ON THE SIDE OF
THE TONGUE WITH A CORRUGATED OR HAIRY
APPEARANCE
• THE WHITE LESION, WHICH CANNOT BE SCRAPED OFF, IS
BENIGN AND DOES NOT REQUIRE ANY TREATMENT
• ALTHOUGH ITS APPEARANCE MAY HAVE DIAGNOSTIC
AND PROGNOSTIC IMPLICATIONS FOR THE UNDERLYING
CONDITION.
• IT IS ASSOCIATED WITH EPSTEIN-BARR VIRUS (EBV)(ALSO
KNOWS AS HSV 4)
• IT OCCURS MOST COMMONLY IN PEOPLE INFECTED
WITH HIV
5. Clinical features
Intraorally, unilateral or bilateral non-painful white lesions are seen mostly on the
lateral margin of the tongue
The lesion may vary in appearance from a smooth, flat, and small lesion to an
irregular "hairy" or "feathery" lesion with prominent folds or projections
It may occur as either continuous or discontinuous lesion along the lateral border of
the tongue and is often not symmetrical bilaterally.
The lesions may vary in size, severity, and surface characteristics.[10] The lesion is
adherent to the surface, and cannot be removed by scraping
The surrounding tissue does not show any sign of erythematous or edematous
change
Hairy leukoplakia may also involve other surfaces f the tongue, the buccal mucosa,
and/or the gingiva. Here, it may appear as flat with a smooth surface, thus, lacking
the typical "hairy" appearance of the lesion.
6. Etiology of (ORAL HAIRY LEUKOPLAKIA)
HIV
EBV
(Epstein
-Barr
virus)
Immunocompromize
d
Patient undergoing
any kind of
treatment
Patient on any
type of
corticosteroids or
any other immune
compressants
• it has been observed that
the risk of developing hairy
leukoplakia increases to
almost two times with
every 300-unit decrease in
the CD4 count
Behcet
syndrome
7. Pathophysiology
The causative agent implicated is Epstein-Barr virus, the same
virus that causes infectious mononucleosis (glandular fever)
the primary EBV infection has been overcome, the virus will
persist for the rest of the host's life and "hides" from the
immune system by latent infection of B lymphocytes
The virus also causes lytic infection in the oropharynx, but is
kept in check by a normal, functioning immune system.
Uncontrolled lytic infection is manifested as oral hairy
leukoplakia in immunocompromised hosts. OHL usually arises
where the immunocompromise is secondary to HIV/AIDS
8. Histopathology
It is this hyperkeratotic thick layer that may separate from the
underlying cells resulting in projections producing the typical
"hairy" appearance of the lesion. This hyper-keratinized
epithelium may get superficially infected with bacteria and/or
Candida.
The abnormal persistence of nuclei of the cell in this layer of the
epithelium represents incomplete squamous differentiation.
The abnormal persistence of nuclei of the cell in this layer of the
epithelium represents incomplete squamous differentiation.
This abnormal expansion of cells occurs with layers of
koilocyte-like cells or ballooned cells
Absence of inflammation in the epithelium and minimal to zero inflammation
in the lamina propria and even absent inflammatory mononuclear cells
infiltrate.
9. Treatment
• AS HAIRY LEUKOPLAKIA IS A BENIGN CONDITION HAVING A LOW
MORBIDITY RATE AND A TENDENCY TO RESOLVE SPONTANEOUSLY,
EVERY CASE DOES NOT NEED TO BE SPECIFICALLY TREATED
• TREATMENT IS GIVEN FOR PROVIDING RELIEF FOR
SYMPTOMS CAUSED BY THE CONDITION, OR WHEN THE PATIENT
WISHES TO TREAT THE CONDITION FOR ESTHETIC REASONS
• HIGHLY ACTIVE ANTIRETROVIRAL THERAPY DRUGS USUALLY REDUCE
HAIRY LEUKOPLAKIA, BUT THE CONDITION MAY REOCCUR WHEN THE
DRUG DOSAGE IS REDUCED.
• ORAL TREATMENT WITH ANTIVIRAL MEDICATION SUCH AS ACYCLOVIR
NEEDS TO BE GIVEN IN A HIGH DOSAGE OF ABOUT 4000 MG PER DAY
IN DIVIDED DOSAGES FOR AT LEAST SEVEN DAYS TO ACHIEVE THE
REQUIRED THERAPEUTIC LEVELS.
• TOPICAL TREATMENT CAN BE DONE USING PODOPHYLLIN RESIN.
THE SOLUTION OF THIS RESIN IS USED IN THE CONCENTRATION OF
25%
10. Diagnosis
• THE WHITE LESION CANNOT BE WIPED AWAY,[6] UNLIKE
SOME OTHER COMMON ORAL WHITE LESIONS,
E.G. PSEUDOMEMBRANOUS CANDIDIASIS, AND THIS
MAY AID IN THE DIAGNOSIS.
• DIAGNOSIS OF OHL IS MAINLY CLINICAL, BUT CAN BE
SUPPORTED BY PROOF OF EBV IN THE LESION
• HEN CLINICAL APPEARANCE ALONE IS USED TO
DIAGNOSE OHL, THERE IS A FALSE POSITIVE RATE OF
17% COMPARED TO MORE OBJECTIVE METHODS
• IF TISSUE BIOPSY IS CARRIED OUT,
THE HISTOPATHOLOGIC APPEARANCE IS OF
HYPERPLASTIC AND PARAKERATINIZED EPITHELIUM,
WITH "BALLOON CELLS" (LIGHTLY STAINING CELLS) IN
THE UPPER STRATUM SPINOSUM AND "NUCLEAR
BEADING" IN THE SUPERFICIAL LAYERS
