Theories of Disease Theories of disease are our attempt to explain what is going on inside a “host” by postulating a general mechanism A “theory of disease” is a yet-to-be proven general mechanism for a class of disease Agent Host Clinical Response

Germ Theory of Disease 1.Many different kinds of germs cause response 2.Many different responses involving any and every organ system 3.Specific mechanisms may vary greatly (cholera vs. AIDS vs. shingles) 4.No single biomarker. Identification of specific germs took years 5.Prevention—avoidance, antiseptics, sanitation, use of gloves— preceded our knowledge of specific mechanisms “Germ” Later, GermClinical Response Host 1 Germs Reproduce Clinical Response Host 2 Germs Reproduce

Immune Theory of Disease 1.Many different kinds of antigens cause response 2.Many different responses involving any and every organ system 3.Specific mechanisms vary greatly (poison ivy vs. allergic rhinitis vs. serum sickness) 4.No single biomarker, identification of specific antibodies took years 5.Prevention—avoidance, allergy shots—preceded our knowledge of specific mechanisms “Antigen” Later, AntigenClinical ResponseHost 1 Antibodies

TILT Theory of Disease 1.Many different kinds of chemicals cause response 2.Many different responses involving any and every organ system 3.Specific mechanisms may vary greatly 4.Currently no biomarker 5.Prevention—avoidance—may precede our knowledge of specific mechanisms Chemical Later, Other ChemicalsClinical Response Host 1 Loss of Tolerance
