Patch Testing with Dental Screening Series in Oral Disease

Annals of Dermatology, 2015
Background The oral mucosa is constantly exposed to several irritants and allergens including dental materials, but the role of contact allergy in oral disease is obscure.

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

The anabolic steroid stanozolol is a potent inhibitor of human MutT homolog 1

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
MutT homolog 1 (MTH1) is a member of the NUDIX superfamily of enzymes and is an anticancer drug target. We show that stanozolol (Stz), an anabolic steroid, is an unexpected nanomolar inhibitor of MTH1. The X‐ray crystal structure of the human MTH1–Stz complex reveals a unique binding scaffold that could be utilized for future inhibitor development ...

ERBIN limits epithelial cell plasticity via suppression of TGF‐β signaling

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In breast and lung cancer patients, low ERBIN expression correlates with poor clinical outcomes. Here, we show that ERBIN inhibits TGF‐β‐induced epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in NMuMG breast and A549 lung adenocarcinoma cell lines. ERBIN suppresses TGF‐β/SMAD signaling and reduces TGF‐β‐induced ERK phosphorylation.

SENSITIZING POTENTIAL OF TEMPORARY FILLING MATERIALS [PDF]

Journal of IMAB
Introduction: When treatment requires multiple visits, temporary filling materials are needed in order to seal the cavity between the appointments. Some of their substances can be contact allergens. Although the risk is very low, it should not be ignored.

Investigation of contact allergy to dental materials by patch testing

Indian Dermatology Online Journal, 2014
Background: Dental products are widely used by patients and dental personnel alike and may cause problems for both. Dental materials could cause contact allergy with varying manifestations such as burning, pain, stomatitis, cheilitis, ulcers, lichenoid ...

Redox‐dependent binding and conformational equilibria govern the fluorescence decay of NAD(P)H in living cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this work, we reveal how different enzyme binding configurations influence the fluorescence decay of NAD(P)H in live cells using time‐resolved anisotropy imaging and fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM). Mathematical modelling shows that the redox states of the NAD and NADP pools govern these configurations, shaping their fluorescence ...

ALLERGIC CONTACT DERMATITIS AND ATOPIC DERMATITIS: HIGHLIGHTS OF THE OVERLAP SYNDROME

Клінічна та профілактична медицина
Introduction. The combination of atopic dermatitis (AD) with allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) or the occurrence of ACD on the background of atopic dermatitis is called the overlap syndrome.

Patch Testing in Suspected Allergic Contact Dermatitis to Cosmetics

Dermatology research and practice, 2014
Background. Increasing use of cosmetics has contributed to a rise in the incidence of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) to cosmetics. It is estimated that 1–5.4% of the population is sensitized to a cosmetic ingredient. Patch testing helps to confirm the

Neutrophil deficiency increases T cell numbers at the site of tissue injury in mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In wild‐type mice, injury or acute inflammation induces neutrophil influx followed by macrophage accumulation. Mcl1ΔMyelo (neutrophil‐deficient) mice lack neutrophils, and in response to muscle injury show fewer macrophages and exhibit strikingly elevated T‐cell numbers, primarily non‐conventional “double‐negative” (DN) αβ and γδ T cells.
