[Skin necrosis as a predictive factor for neoplasia in dermatomyositis].
Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare myopathic disorder characterized by symmetric proximal muscle weakness and characteristic skin lesions; it is associated with an underlying neoplasm in up to 30% of cases.1-7 Several studies have recently been aimed at identifying demographic, clinical, and laboratory data that could predict the individual risk of malignant tumors in patients with DM. Several auth...
متن کاملTumor necrosis factor inhibitor-associated dermatomyositis.
BACKGROUND Dermatomyositis is an autoimmune disease of unknown etiology characterized by inflammation of the skin and muscles. Several medications have been implicated in the development of dermatomyositis; however, the disease has rarely been linked to the use of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors. We report 4 cases of dermatomyositis that developed or were exacerbated by exposure to the T...
متن کاملEndometriosis Classification and The Role of Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha Polymorphisms as A Therapeutic Target
In the recent original research published on International Journal of Fertility and Sterility the association between tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) genetic polymorphisms and endometriosis in 150 Iranian patients suffered this disease. The authors notably found a lower frequency of TNF-α -863C/A allele A among the affected patients in comparison with healthy women, although this difference...

15 صفحه اولNur77 as a survival factor in tumor necrosis factor signaling.
The immediate-early gene Nur77, which encodes an orphan nuclear receptor, is rapidly induced by various stress stimuli, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Nur77 has been implicated in mediating apoptosis, particularly in T cells and tumor cells. We report here that Nur77 can play a role in antagonizing apoptosis in TNF signaling. Nur77 expression is strongly induced by TNF. Interestingly, u...
