First ex vivo cultivation of human Demodex mites and evaluation of different drugs on mite proliferation

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, Volume 36, Issue 12, Page 2499-2503, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Demodex spp. mites are the most complex resident of the human skin microbiome. Although they are considered commensals, they can be pathophysiologically relevant in inflammatory skin diseases like rosacea. Until now, there is no culture system available for these mites except for using live vertebrate hosts.

Recent Evidence of Tea Tree Oil Effectiveness in Blepharitis Treatment

BioMed Research International, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
The purpose of our study is to see how beneficial is tea tree oil (TTO) for treating chronic blepharitis topically, with a focus on the Demodex mite. To discover all possibly relevant published papers, an accurate Pubmed database search analysis of the current literature was undertaken from 2012 to December 2021. Fourteen papers dealing with the use of

The mitogenome of Halotydeus destructor (Tucker) and its relationships with other trombidiform mites as inferred from nucleotide sequences and gene arrangements

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 20, Page 14162-14174, October 2021., 2021
We report the complete mitogenome sequence of the redlegged earth mite, Halotydeus destructor (Tucker). We used Bayesian phylogenetic analyses to contextualize the relationship of H. destructor with other trombidiform mites. Phylogenies were inferred from protein‐coding and rRNA genes using nucleotide sequences and a novel characterization of gene ...

Primary facial demodicosis as a health problem and aesthetic challenge: A case report

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 20, Issue 2, Page 420-424, February 2021., 2021
Abstract Colonization of skin by Demodex mites developing as a single facial lesion with a limited range is diagnosed relatively rarely. The presence of this type of skin lesions may hinder and thus delay the diagnostic process and application of appropriate treatment.
