Maternal IgG impairs the maturation of offspring intrathymic IL‐17‐producing γδT cells: implications for murine and human allergies
AbstractBackgroundThe precise mechanism involved in the acquisition of the IL‐17+ profile of γδT cells, the ligands responsible for this change, and whether this default is acquired during intrathymic maturation need to be elucidated.ObjectiveThis study aimed to evaluate whether IL‐17‐producing γδT cells are present in the airways of tolerant offspring from allergen‐sensitized mothers and the possible implication of maternal IgG in the generation of these cells.MethodsFemale mice were immunized...

New findings, pathophysiology, and antigen analysis in pollen-food allergy syndrome
Purpose of review PFAS shows various cross-reactivities with antigens because of the area in which the patient resides and dietary habits, and progress in component allergen analysis in recent years has clarified the pathogenesis. This review describes newly identified findings for antigens involved in PFAS. Recent findings We describe recent findings for PR-10 family, profilin and LTP, as known major antigens for PFAS. Microarrays of allergen components have significantly improved the ability...

NF-kB Pathway and the Goldilocks Principle: Lessons from Human Disorders of Immunity and Inflammation
The NF-kB signaling pathways play a key-role in various cell processes related to host immunity. The last few years have seen an explosion of disorders associated with NF-kB components, from core members of the canonical and non-canonical cascades, to adaptor protein and ubiquitination-related enzymes. Disease phenotypes have extended beyond susceptibility to infections, and include autoimmunity, lympho-proliferation, atopy and inflammation. Concurrently, studies are unveiling a tightly-regulated...

Limb salvage in diabetic foot disease - a classification to aid successful reconstruction
Publication date: Available online 29 March 2019Source: Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic SurgeryAuthor(s): G.A.C. Wheble, A.T. Emam, U.M. KhanSummaryDiabetes is a global epidemic. If poorly managed, innocuous injury in a diabetic foot leads to intractable ulceration, bone and joint destruction and subsequent major amputation. It is estimated that every week in the UK there are 100 lower limb amputations of which 80 could have been prevented had diabetes been better managed. It is...

Lacrimal Sac Sebaceous Carcinoma
Sebaceous carcinoma is an aggressive malignancy with a high mortality rate that commonly arises in the periorbital area. Rarely, the lacrimal apparatus may be involved by either contiguous or noncontiguous spread. The authors describe 2 unusual cases of sebaceous carcinoma in the lacrimal sac, presenting as a medial canthal mass simulating chronic dacryocystitis. In Case 1, the sebaceous carcinoma occurred primarily in the lacrimal sac, in the absence of concurrent or previous ocular adnexal sebaceous...

Foreign-Body Granulomata Caused by Injected Permanent Filler Masquerading as Cutaneous Sarcoidosis
Foreign-body granuloma formation following filler injections is most commonly seen with permanent fillers; these reactions can occur years following the injections and often require either an intralesional steroid injection or surgical excision. The authors present a case of a 75-year-old woman with a history of systemic sarcoidosis previously treated with numerous immunosuppressive medications who was examined for bilateral infraorbital nodules and swelling that were unresponsive to treatment. She...

Hyaluronic Acid Gel Biodegradation After Intrapalpebral and Intraorbital Injection in Experimental Study
Purpose: Amid the increasing clinical application of hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers in the ocular adnexa is a paucity of histological data concerning the fate of the injected material. The current study documents the in vivo biodegradation of HA deposited in the eyelid and orbit. Methods: The study included 22 chinchilla rabbits. The right upper eyelid of 12 rabbits received a single 0.2 ml Restylane (Galderma, Uppsala, Sweden) subcutaneous injection. In 10 different rabbits, the right orbit...

Effect of disodium phosphate and homogenization on physico-chemical and rheological properties of buffalo skim milk based ultrafiltered retentate
Abstract The concentration of pasteurized buffalo skim milk (PBSM) employing ultrafiltration (UF) alters the chemical composition of ultrafiltered retentate that adversely affect its proteins and salts equilibrium. Effect of stabilizing salts addition in concentrated milks or retentates was majorly dedicated to their thermal stability only. Therefore, this study was aimed to investigate the effect of disodium phosphate (DSP) addition and homogenization of 2.40 × UF retentate (0.60...

Physicochemical properties of potato starches manufactured in Hokkaido factories
Abstract Potato starch is an important agricultural product in Hokkaido, the northernmost island of Japan, with output of around 0.18 million tons/year. The present investigation was conducted to evaluate the physicochemical properties of potato starch samples manufactured in 10 factories in Hokkaido. The starch samples were analyzed for pasting properties by rapid visco analyzer (RVA), gelatinization properties by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), color components, and...

Relationship of Mixolab characteristics with protein, pasting, dynamic and empirical rheological characteristics of flours from Indian wheat varieties with diverse grain hardness
Abstract Mixolab properties of different Indian extraordinarily soft (Ex-SW), hard (HW) and medium hard (MHW) wheat varieties were evaluated and related to damaged starch content, particle size distribution, pasting, Farinographic and Mixographic properties. Water absorption (WA) of HW varieties was higher as compared to other varieties. Higher damaged starch led to more WA in HW varieties while lower in Ex-SW varieties. Unextratable polymeric protein, damaged starch and arabinoxylans...

Utilization of flour from rice brokens in wheat flour chapatti: evaluation of dough rheology, starch digestibility, glycemic index and retrogradation behavior
Abstract Broken rice, a byproduct of the rice milling industry was utilized at different levels to evaluate unleavened flat bread (chapatti) making properties of whole wheat flour. Chapattis were prepared by replacing whole wheat flour with broken rice flour up to 50% level. Mixolab studies revealed that incorporation of rice flour lowered dough development time and dough stability of whole wheat flour up to 23.49% and 78.33%, respectively. Lower retrogradation was observed in...
