THE CLINICAL AND SCIENTIFIC IMPORTANCE OF MUCOSAL INFLAMMATION Standing at the interface between the host and the environment, mucosal-lined surfaces represent the first line of defense against potential pathogens. This defensive role is particularly relevant to the mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract, the pulmonary system, and the urinary tract, each of which is particularly susceptible to th...

Background and aim: Lichen planus (LP) is an inflammatory papulosquamous disease that affects skin, mucous membranes, nails and hair. As the disease presents in various clinical types, the objective of this study was to determine the frequency of clinical variants of LP in dermatological out-patients in Kerman. Materials and methods: In this study 300 patients with LP were evaluated during 1382...

Tissue-engineered oral mucosal equivalents have been developed for clinical applications and also for in vitro studies of biocompatibility, mucosal irritation, disease, and other basic oral biology phenomena. This paper reviews different tissue-engineering strategies used for the production of human oral mucosal equivalents, their relative advantages and drawbacks, and their applications. Techn...

Introduction Nasal polyps are benign mucosal disorders extending to lumen by proliferating in nasal cavity as a result of mucosal inflammation. NP are the most common reason of nasal masses with a prevalence of 1-4% and it is more common in male gender (1, 2). It is a multifactorial disease with unclear etiology.

Mucosal immunization is advantageous over other routes of antigen delivery because it can induce both mucosal and systemic immune responses. Our goal was to develop a mucosal delivery vehicle based on bacteria generally regarded as safe, such as Lactobacillus spp. In this study, we used the Lyme disease mouse model as a proof of concept. We demonstrate that an oral vaccine based on live recombi...
