Immunologic Adverse Effects of Biologics for the Treatment of AtopyClinical Reviews in Allergy - Tập 59 - Trang 220-230 - 2019
Vivian Aranez, Julian Ambrus
The use of biologic agents as therapies for atopic diseases such as asthma and atopic dermatitis has increased greatly in recent years. The biological agents used to treat atopic diseases are for the most part monoclonal antibodies that suppress the immune response and reduce inflammation by targeting particular cytokines or other molecules involved in Th1, Th2, or Th17 immune reactions. Various s...... hiện toàn bộ
Medical treatment of primary biliary cirrhosis and primary sclerosing cholangitisClinical Reviews in Allergy - Tập 28 - Trang 135-145 - 2005
Christian Rust, Ulrich Beuers
Chronic cholestasis is the main feature of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), the most common chronic cholestatic liver diseases in adults. Although the etiology of both diseases remains poorly understood, auto-immune processes appear to be important, particularly in PBC. PBC and PSC usually slowly progress to cirrhosis, liver failure, and death, unless liver...... hiện toàn bộ

Lupus nephritis (LN) is one of the most serious complications of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) since it is the major predictor of poor prognosis. The purpose of this study was to examine the clinical and immunological characteristics associated with LN development during the course of SLE in Colombians. Therefore, patients with SLE followed at five different referral centers in Medellin, Bogo...... hiện toàn bộ
Molecular Biology of Atopic DermatitisClinical Reviews in Allergy - Tập 47 - Trang 193-218 - 2014
Zhanglei Mu, Yan Zhao, Xiaojing Liu, Christopher Chang, Jianzhong Zhang
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with specific genetic and immunological mechanisms. The rapid development of new techniques in molecular biology had ushered in new discoveries on the role of cytokines, chemokines, and immune cells in the pathogenesis of AD. New polymorphisms of AD are continually being reported in different populations. The physical and immunological ...... hiện toàn bộ
