A commensal bacterial infectious disease that results in infection, located in muscle tissue, has material basis in Clostridium perfringens, which produce gas that becomes trapped in the infected tissue.

The infection has symptom large blisters, has symptom pain in the infected area, has symptom myonecrosis, has symptom gas production, and has symptom sepsis.
MalaCards based summary : Gas Gangrene, also known as myonecrosis, is related to tetanus and myoglobinuria, and has symptoms including myoclonus, torticollis and muscle cramp. An important gene associated with Gas Gangrene is HSPG2 (Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycan 2), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Dilated cardiomyopathy and Salivary secretion. The drugs Atorvastatin and Lipid Regulating Agents have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include skeletal muscle, skin and colon, and related phenotypes are homeostasis/metabolism and behavior/neurological Wikipedia : 74 Gas gangrene (also known as clostridial myonecrosis and myonecrosis) is a bacterial infection that... more... |
