Macrophage TNF-α mediates parathion-induced airway hyperreactivity in guinea pigs. [PDF]
Organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) are implicated in human asthma. We previously demonstrated that, at concentrations that do not inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity, the OP parathion causes airway hyperreactivity in guinea pigs as a result of ...

Muckle-Wells treatment with anakinra [PDF]
A 35-year-old man initially was referred for management of recalcitrant urticaria. Owing to his long history of arthritis and sensorineural hearing loss, genetic testing was performed. The test showed a D305N heterozygous mutation in the NLRP3 gene, which is consistent with the diagnosis of Muckle-Wells syndrome.
