Phylogentic theory of pathology. Common phylogenetic features in the pathogenesis of essential arterial hyperntesion and insulin resistance syndrome

Abstract

Our phylogenetic theory of pathology (algorrhythm of a disease development) is based on 1) a theory of biological functions and biological reactions in vivo; 2) regulation of biological functions, reactions, and metabolic processes at three phylogenetically different levels: а) autocrine (cell level); b) paracrine (in paracrine-regulated cell communities) and c) total organism level; 3) conceptions on formation of physiological and aphysiological processes («civilization» diseases) at various stages of phylogenesis. Universal pathogenesis of essential arterial hypertension and insulin resistance syndrome is based on functional discrepancy between phylogenetically early regulatory mechanisms at the level of paracrine cell communities and phylogenetically late regulation at the organism level. Pathogenic factors of this discrepancy are impaired biological functions of homeostasis, trophology, endoecology and adaptation. An increase in the content of unesterified fatty acids in the intercellular medium results from activation of lipolysis in paracrine community cells which cannot inhibit phylogenetically late insulin, but not in insulin-dependent adipocytes. The formation of pathogenesis of each metabolic pandemia occurs dynamically at different stages of phylogenesis.
