[ 2 ] - Cytokine Indexes in Pemphigus Vulgaris: Perception of Its Immunpathogenesis and Hopes for Non-Steroidal Treatment

Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a chronic autoimmune blistering disease of the skin, in whichloss of adhesion between keratinocytes is caused by autoantibodies. It has been hypothesizedthat cytokines play an essential role in the pathogenesis of PV. This study aimed to investigatethe other immunopathological aspects of PV by determining the serum levels of cytokines inPV patients to find another tre...

[ 3 ] - The Effect of Protocatechuic Acid on Blood Pressure and Oxidative Stress in Glucocorticoid-induced Hypertension in Rat

Oxidative stress is one of the important mechanisms involved in Dexamethasone (Dex)-induced hypertension. Protocatechuic acid (PCA) is a natural compound with high antioxidant capacity. In this investigation, the effect of pretreatment with PCA was studied in Dex-induced hypertensive male Wistar rats. For induction of hypertension, Dex was injected subcutaneously for 14 days. PCA (50, 100 and 2...
