Sloughing esophageal mucosa [PDF]

open access: yesQJM, 2013
A 52-year-old man presented with 3-week history of passing bright red blood per rectum. His medical history was significant for hypertension, gastroesophageal reflux disease and iron-deficiency anemia. He had a similar episode 3 years ago for which colonoscopy was done and showed hyperplastic polyp in transverse colon and non-bleeding internal ...

Tissue-engineered Oral Mucosa [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dental Research, 2012
Advances in tissue engineering have permitted the three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of human oral mucosa for various in vivo and in vitro applications. Tissue-engineered oral mucosa have been further optimized in recent years for clinical applications as a suitable graft material for intra-oral and extra-oral repair and treatment of soft-tissue ...

A case report: retigabine induced oral mucosal dyspigmentation of the hard palate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Dyspigmentation of the oral mucosa has a multitude of aetiological causes. Retigabine, a new antiepileptic drug, has the potential side effect of inducing a blue/purple pigmentation of the oral mucosa in addition to the skin, lips, nails and ...

Regulation of psoriasis, colitis, and the intestinal microbiota by clusterin

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Psoriasis, a chronic and systemic inflammatory disorder characterized by activation of the interleukin (IL)-23/IL-17 axis, may be associated with the intestinal microbiota through the so-called “gut–skin axis.” Clusterin is a glycoprotein ubiquitously ...

Differential inflammatory response to Helicobacter pylori infection: etiology and clinical outcomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The bacterial pathogen Helicobacter pylori commonly colonizes the human gastric mucosa during early childhood and persists throughout life. The organism has evolved multiple mechanisms for evading clearance by the immune system and, despite inducing ...

Gut immune dysfunction through impaired innate pattern recognition receptor expression and gut microbiota dysbiosis in chronic SIV infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
HIV targets the gut mucosa early in infection, causing immune and epithelial barrier dysfunction and disease progression. However, gut mucosal sensing and innate immune signaling through mucosal pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) during HIV infection ...
