Efficacy of topical 2% Ketoconazole cream in patients with Acne Vulgaris with positive smear for Pityrosporum Ovale
Background: Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory disease of pilosebaceous unit. The role of Pityrosporum ovale (P.ovale) in the exacerbation of acne is still under debate. Objective: To determine the efficacy of topical 2% ketoconazole cream in comparison to placebo in the treatment of acne vulgaris in patients with positive smear for P.ovale. Patients and Methods: A smear was obtained from ...
متن کاملMonoclonal antibodies reactive with mucin glycoproteins found in sera from breast cancer patients.
Monoclonal antibodies to mucin glycoproteins have previously been shown to detect elevated antigen levels in sera from breast cancer patients. To determine whether different mucin epitopes represent better targets for serum assays, we have produced and characterized 14 new monoclonal antibodies directed against the mucin glycoproteins detected by antibody W1. Many of the new antibodies differed...
متن کاملAntibodies from patients with myasthenia gravis recognize determinants unique to extrajunctional acetylcholine receptors.
We have examined the interaction between sera from patients with myasthenia gravis and acetylcholine receptor (AcChoR) purified from normal and denervated rat skeletal muscles [junctional receptor (JR) and extrajunctional receptor (EJR), respectively]. Eight of ten myasthenic sera had titers against EJR that were significantly higher (1.1-2.4 times) than their titers against JR. The antirecepto...
متن کاملAntibodies from patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia/thrombosis recognize different epitopes on heparin: platelet factor 4.
Antibodies associated with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia/ thrombosis (HITT) are now thought to be specific for complexes formed between heparin and platelet factor 4 (PF4), a basic protein found normally in platelet alpha granules. How these antibodies cause thrombocytopenia and, in some patients, thrombosis, is not fully understood, in part because purified antibodies that could be labeled ...
متن کاملStaphylococcus Aureus Carriage in Patients with Psoriasis
Background: The aggravating role of Staphylococcus aureus is well known in atopic dermatitis but has not yet been proven in psoriasis. The role of Staphylococcus aureus superantigens is emphasized in the initiation, maintenance and complications of psoriasis. We investigated the frequency of nasal, axillary, and perineal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) in patients with psoriasis and its ...
