Certain 1,8-dihydroxy-9-anthrones have been used for the topical treatment of psoriasis for over seventy-five years. The therapeutic usefulness of these compounds is limited, however, by side effects including severe skin inflammation and staining. Antipsoriatic 9-anthrones are also tumor promoters
Certain 9-anthrone derivatives are useful in treating psoriasis and are also known to be tumor promoters in mouse skin. Their therapeutic use is accompanied by side effects of severe skin inflammation, irritation, and staining. The precise biochemical mechanisms of therapeutic action, tumor
Thermal balneotherapy with Comano's spa water (CW; Trentino, Italy) is beneficial for psoriasis and other skin disorders but its operative mechanisms are largely unknown. Previously, we showed that CW interferes with the production and secretion of IL-6 and various VEGF-A isoforms and with CK-16
OBJECTIVE
Avarol is a marine sesquiterpenoid hydroquinone with anti-inflammatory and antipsoriatic properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro and in vivo pharmacological behaviour of the derivative avarol-3'-thiosalicylate (TA) on some inflammatory parameters related to the
Microbiological aspects are considered to be of pathophysiological importance in psoriasis, but there has so far been no information regarding cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. This is of interest due to the high prevalence of latent infection in the general population, the frequent reactivation in
Monomethylfumarate (MMF) is thought to be the bioactive ingredient of the drug Fumaderm (Biogen Idec, Cambridge, MA), licensed in Germany since 1994 for the treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis. Psoriasis is a common inflammatory hyperproliferative skin disorder that involves cross-talk between
OBJECTIVE
To explore the effects of Liangxue Huayu therapy (LXHYT), a traditional Chinese herbal therapy for cooling blood and dissipating blood stasis, on rat model of experimental autoimmune thyroiditis (EAT) and its impact on tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-10 mRNA expressions in
IFI27 is an interferon alpha-inducible protein found to be upregulated in lesional and non-lesional psoriatic skin in a gene array study. To further characterize its function, we studied by in situ hybridization whether IFI27 is expressed in psoriasis, other inflammatory skin diseases, and wound
The aim of the current investigation is to evaluate the transdermal potential of novel vesicular carrier, ethosomes, bearing methotrexate (MTX), an anti-psoriatic, anti-neoplastic, highly hydrosoluble agent having limited transdermal permeation. MTX loaded ethosomes were prepared, optimized and
BACKGROUND
There is strong epidemiologic evidence that psoriasis treatments may cause nonmelanoma skin cancer and possibly other types of cancer.
OBJECTIVE
This study from Denmark reports the cancer incidence in 6910 patients with psoriasis discharged from the hospital from 1977 through
This study reports the cancer incidence among 6910 individuals in Denmark discharged from hospital over the period 1977-1987 with a diagnosis of psoriasis. Patients were identified in the National Hospital Discharge Register and information on cases of cancer was obtained through the files of the
Numerous chemicals to which humans are exposed either therapeutically or as a result of living in an industrial environment constitute a potential threat as carcinogens, mutagens, and/or tumor promoters and cocarcinogens. Anthralin, and antipsoriatic agent, acts as a tumor promoter for Balb/c-3T3
This study was designed to estimate the relative cancer risk of patients with moderate to severe psoriasis, with reference to different treatments. A cohort of 5687 hospitalized patients with psoriasis obtained from the Finnish Hospital Discharge Register in 1973-84 was linked with the records of
Adalimumab is a human, recombinant IgG1 monoclonal antibody that specifically blocks the interaction of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha with the p55 and the p75 TNF-alpha cell surface receptors. We report the appearance of palmoplantar pustular psoriasis in a patient after 6 months of successful
