Serum vitamin D level in patients with newly diagnosed pemphigus vulgaris
Background: Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a rare autoimmune blistering disease of the skin and mucous membranes. Because vitamin D deficiency is associated with many immune disorders, we compared the levels of vitamin D between PV patients and healthy controls. Methods: Vitamin D level of 20 patients with PV was compared with 20 healthy individuals matched for age, gender, hours spent in the sun, ...
متن کاملTherapeutic differentiation in a human rhabdomyosarcoma cell line selected for resistance to actinomycin D.
Classical cytotoxic treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is accompanied often by significant morbidity and poor response. The use of cytotoxic agents may induce a multidrug resistance phenotype, which plays an important role in the sensitivity of tumoral cells to drugs. Using actinomycin D, a drug of choice in the treatment of RMS, we induced resistance in the TE.32.7 human RMS cell line. The TE...

Additional masses or nodes could easily be presumed to be a result of the initial diagnosis. On the other hand, adult rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare malignancy presenting with a new mass in a patient with previous diagnosis of Hodgkin's ...
متن کاملExperimental studies with actinomycin D.
Actinomycin D has been tested on mouse tu mors, with varying degrees of success, as an anti-neoplastic agent. Dramatic inhibition of some ascites (mouse) tumors has been reported by Sugiura (14) and Gregory et al. (6). Reilly (11) and Sugiura (14) are in agreement that actino-mycin D has slight antineoplastic activity against S-180, and Farber (3) demonstrated antitumor activity against the mal...
متن کاملis serum vitamin d levels associated with disability in patients with newly diagnosed multiple sclerosis?
background: although the precise etiology of multiple sclerosis (ms) is unknown, it seems that both genetic and environmental factors are important. recent studies suggest that low serum vitamin d levels are important environmental factor in ms. the aim of this study was to compare the serum levels of vitamin d between ms patients and healthy subjects, and to determine its association with disa...
