Mucosal defense is provided by a number of host factors countering the specific virulence factors of the many microorganisms infecting the mucous membranes. Secretory IgA antibodies presumably play an important role. Increase of the sIgA antibodies may most advantageously be attained by parenteral immunization, following mucosal priming.

Oral mucositis remains a frequent debilitating toxicity associated with drug and radiation regimens used to treat cancer. This review highlights the recent understanding of the biological basis, risk factors for, and management for oral mucositis.Prevalence and incidence data for mucositis are inconsistent and often underreported.

Oral mucositis remains one of the most common and troubling side effects of standard chemoradiation regimens used for the treatment of head and neck cancer. Virtually all patients who receive cumulative radiation doses of more than 30 Gy that includes oral mucosal fields will develop the condition.

Cutaneous malignant melanoma is a common malignancy and has been increasing at an alarming rate in the United States. Sun exposure is a well-known risk factor related to this disease and much is understood regarding the etiology and epidemiology of cutaneous melanomas. In contrast, primary mucosal melanomas represent an extremely rare malignancy and do

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 1994
Intestinal mucosal biopsy has become an invaluable tool for the evaluation of children with abdominal complaints. Multiple techniques and biopsy instruments have each been developed with advantages and limitations. Physicians caring for infants and children must be familiar with indications for tissue sampling, timing of the biopsies, and ...

Oral and gastrointestinal mucositis is a toxicity of many forms of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. It has a significant impact on health, quality of life and economic outcomes that are associated with treatment. It also indirectly affects the success of antineoplastic therapy by limiting the ability of patients to tolerate optimal tumoricidal treatment.

Mucosal microenvironment and mucosal response.
The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 1994Considerable investigative effort is currently being directed towards the use of oral immunization for the prevention of mucosal infections, including otitis media, in infancy and childhood. The development of immune response to mucosally introduced vaccines or environmental antigens is significantly influenced by the mucosal microflora, enzymatic ...
