Eosinophils in skin diseases. [PDF]
Eosinophil infiltration is a common finding in a broad spectrum of skin diseases, despite the fact that the skin is devoid of eosinophils under physiologic conditions. Although cutaneous eosinophilia is reactive, cytokine-mediated in most cases, diseases

The Burden of Co-Existing Dermatological Disorders and their Tendency of being Overlooked Among Patients Admitted to Muhimbili National Hospital in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. [PDF]
\ud Skin diseases are underestimated and overlooked by most clinicians despite being common in clinical practice. Many patients are hospitalized with co-existing dermatological conditions which may not be detected and managed by the attending physicians.

Genetic dysbiosis: the role of microbial insults in chronic inflammatory diseases [PDF]
Thousands of bacterial phylotypes colonise the human body and the host response to this bacterial challenge greatly influences our state of health or disease. The concept of infectogenomics highlights the importance of host genetic factors in determining

Cultured skin microbiota attracts malaria mosquitoes [PDF]
Background Host-seeking of the African malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto, is guided by human odours. The precise nature of the odours, and the composition of attractive blends of volatiles, remains largely unknown.

Differential attraction of malaria mosquitoes to volatile blends produced by human skin bacteria [PDF]
The malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto is mainly guided by human odour components to find its blood host. Skin bacteria play an important role in the production of human body odour and when grown in vitro, skin bacteria produce volatiles ...

Antimicrobial Peptides and Skin: A Paradigm of Translational Medicine [PDF]
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small, cationic, amphiphilic peptides with broad-spectrum microbicidal activity against both bacteria and fungi. In mammals, AMPs form the first line of host defense against infections and generally play an important ...

Composition of Human Skin Microbiota Affects Attractiveness to Malaria Mosquitoes [PDF]
The African malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto continues to play an important role in malaria transmission, which is aggravated by its high degree of anthropophily, making it among the foremost vectors of this disease.

Background: According to the biodiversity hypothesis of immune-mediated diseases, lack of microbiological diversity in the everyday living environment is a core reason for dysregulation of immune tolerance and – eventually – the epidemic of immune ...
