2. Vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) protects from neuropathy caused by cisplatin, through enhanced heat shock protein-70 and reduced oxidant effect
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: We aimed to determine whether vitamin C has a protective effect on cisplatin-induced neuropathy in rats. METHODS: In total, 24 rats were included in the study of which 8 rats (no drug administered) were categorized as the control group. The remaining 16 rats were given a total dose of 20 mg/kg cisplatin to induce neuropathy. These drug-a

3. Stem cell therapy as a potential treatment option for psoriasis
Abstract Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory dermatological disorder characterized by white scales and clearly demarcated erythematous plaques. The prevalence of psoriasis varies from country to country and can occur at any age, implying that ethnicity, environmental factors, and genetic background all play a role in its onset. According to the World Psorias

4. Cerebrospinal fluid levels of sortilin-1, lipocalin-2, autotaxin, decorin and interleukin-33 in patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension
Resumo Antecedentes A hipertensão intracraniana idiopática (HII) é caracterizada pelo aumento da pressão do líquido cefalorraquidiano (LCR) de causa desconhecida. Tem sido sugerido que o processo inflamatório desempenha um papel na fisiopatologia da doença. Sortilina-1, lipocalina-2, autotaxina, decorina e interleucina-33 (IL-33) estão entre os fato

5. Role of Probiotics in Patients with Allergic Rhinitis: A Systematic Review of Systematic Reviews
Abstract Introduction Allergic rhinitis (AR) is estimated to affect up to 30% of the world population. With the rise in cases, newer treatment modalities have been explored. Probiotics have shown to reduce symptoms of AR and improve quality of life. A few systematic reviews have been published aiming to assess the role of probiotics in AR. Objectives To co

6. Interleukin-17A in Egyptian leprosy patients: a clinical, genetic, and biochemical study
Abstract Background: Leprosy represents a long-term communicable disease resulting from Mycobacterium leprae infection. IL-17A is one of the pro-inflammatory cytokines that protects humans against many fungal and bacterial pathogens. Objective: To investigate IL-17A (rs2275913) gene polymorphism and its circulating level in leprosy patients, and to correla

7. Wheelchair basketball improves the treatment of urinary tract infection in people with motor disabilities: a clinical trial
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Few studies on physical medicine and rehabilitation analyze the benefit of wheelchair basketball in people with motor disabilities. Given these, this study aimed to investigate the effect of the intervention of wheelchair basketball on urinary tract infection in people with motor disabilities. METHODS: A 12-month experimental follow-up w

8. Association between inflammatory molecules, nitric oxide metabolites and leg ulcers in individuals with sickle cell anemia
Abstract Introduction Leg ulcers (LUs) are relatively common in patients with sickle cell anemia (SCA). The role of inflammation and nitric oxide (NO) pathways in the pathophysiology of the LU is not understood. Objective The aim of this study was to verify the association between inflammatory molecules and nitric oxide metabolites (NOx) and the occurrence

9. The Relationship Between Serum Concentration of Interleukin-35 and FoxP3 Polymorphism in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery
Abstract Objective: To investigate the association between interleukin-35 (IL-35) levels and single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs3761548, rs3761547) of the FoxP3 gene in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) patients. Methods: We conducted a prospective study including 140 patients, who were scheduled for elective isolated on-pump CABG with cardiopulmonary

10. Inflammation in Cardiovascular Disease: From Basic Concepts to Clinical Application
Abstract Although low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is central to the development and progression of atherosclerosis, the role of inflammation in the atherosclerotic process is becoming better understood and appreciated. Chronic inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, HIV infection, and inflammatory bowel disease have all be

11. Investigation of AKI with Early Biomarkers After Cardiac Surgery
Abstract Objective: To provide a new interpretation of the effect of intraoperative hemodynamic data on postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) development and to determine the accuracy of some biomarkers which are thought to be the early markers of renal injury. Methods: One hundred adult patients who were connected to the heart-lung pump during open-he

12. Modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in IL-17A-mediated macrophage polarization of RAW264.7 cells
Macrophages play pivotal roles in host defense and immune homeostasis, which have two major functional polarization states, the classically activated M1 and the alternatively activated M2. Interleukin (IL)-17A is an immune modulator able to shape macrophage phenotypes. Wnt/β-catenin is a developmental signaling pathway that plays crucial roles in morphogene
