Correlation Between Immediate Hypersensitivity and Gingivitis
Bacterial plaque has been implicated as the primary etiologie factor in inflammatory periodontal disease. The most direct evidence comes from such studies as those by Loe, Theilade, and Jensen, who examined the production of gingival inflammation in healthy adults who stopped toothbrushing and …

Treatment of dentine hypersensitivity using desensitising toothpastes
… for treating the common phenomenon of dentine hypersensitivity (DH) which results from exposed dentine. The first line oftreatment is normally to use a desensitising toothpaste which is a quick, easy and widely available form oftreatment reducing the pain that results from this condition. There …

Damage-Induced Inflammation and Nociceptive Hypersensitivity In Drosophila Larvae
… model of damage-induced inflammation and pain hypersensitivity using Drosophila larvae. To study wound-induced inflammation, we generated transgenic larvae with fluorescent epidermal cells and blood cells (hemocytes). Using live imaging, we monitored the circulatory dynamics of hemocytes and …

Genomics study of anti-tuberculosis drug-induced hypersensitivity reactions
… confirmed rifampicin and or isoniazid-associated hypersensitivity reactions using both genome- wide association studies and candidate gene approaches. Methods: A case control study using 14 patients with previous tuberculosis-associated CADR who were re-challenged with first-line anti-tuberculosis …

Genetic Polymorphism of Prostanoid Receptors, CRTH2 and TBXA2R in Aspirin Hypersensitivity
… and anaphylaxis. We studied two major aspirin hypersensitivity, AIA and AIAU in an association with prostanoids receptor CRTH2 and TBXA2R. The human CRTH2 gene (official name GPR44) encodes a G protein-coupled chemoattractant receptor molecule which is expressed on Th2 cells including other …

Lack of Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity in Striped Bass (<i>Morone saxatilis</i>)
… infection in fishes. Type IV delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) responses <em>in vivo</em> and i<em>n vitro</em> are currently used for the non-lethal detection of mycobacterial infections in humans and in animals; however, there is little information available on DTH responses in fishes. …

A study of possible chemical mediators of a hypersensitivity reaction in teleost fishes.
The manifestations of anaphylaxis vary considerably in different species. One common factor appears to be the release of pharmacological mediators, potent biologically-active substances which have a profound effect on vascular and bronchial smooth muscle. A cutaneous anaphylactic reaction in …

Dentin Hypersensitivity – Social, Diagnostic and Treatment Aspects // Дентинна свръхчувствителност – социални, диагностични и лечебни аспекти
Dentin hypersensitivity is a global health problem, affecting many persons, male and female, and from different age groups. A small part of them is looking for professional dental help or advice but the interest of solving the problem is raising recently. It is considered extremely important …

Genetic effect of histamine N-methyltransferase (HNMT) polymorphism on chronic urticaria with aspirin hypersensitivity
… to develop chronic urticaria with aspirin hypersensitivity. This study investigated the histamine metabolism related gene and functional variability of the HNMT gene according to genetic polymorphisms in chronic urticaria with aspirin hypersensitivity. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We identified …

Trpv1 Channels Contribute to Behavioral Hypersensitivity and Spontaneous Activity In Nociceptors After Spinal Cord Injury
… antagonist, AMG9810, to reverse SCI-induced hypersensitivity of hindlimb withdrawal responses to heat and mechanical stimuli. Similar reversal of behavioral hypersensitivity was induced by intrathecal delivery of oligodeoxynucleotides antisense to TRPV1, which knocked down TRPV1 protein and …

Investigating the Role of Insulin-Like Signaling in Paclitaxel-Induced Nociceptive Hypersensitivity using Drosophila melanogaster
… dynamics, is known to induce nociceptive hypersensitivity and sensory neuron damage in human patients and in Drosophila larvae. We used a modified feeding protocol to establish a genetically tractable Drosophila model of PTX-induced hypersensitivity. Larvae fed PTX exhibited …

HP Turns 17: T helper 17 cell response during hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) and factors controlling it
<p>Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis (HP) is an interstitial lung disease caused by repeated inhalation of a wide range of environmental antigens. It is characterized by alveolitis, granuloma formation, and fibrosis. Since HP is a T cell-mediated disease, it is important to determine the type of T cell …

Studies on Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity Including Attempts to Effect Transfer in Guinea Pigs with Subcellular Materials
<p>The initial observation that delayed-type hypersensitivity could be transferred from an allergic to a normal animal by means of living white cells was made at The Rockefeller Institute many years ago. Since that time it has been recognized that cellular transfer appears to be a unifying …

TWO TYPES OF ROS ARE DIFFERENTIALLY INVOLVED IN SPINAL SYNAPTIC PLASTICITY AND MECHANICAL HYPERSENSITIVITY IN NEUROPATHIC PAIN
Central sensitization, characterized by an increase in dorsal horn synaptic efficacy, is believed to underlie the chronic nature of neuropathic pain. It has been shown that pain-relaying synapses in the dorsal horn express two forms of long term changes in excitability––long term potentiation (LTP) …

Protein Kinase D1 in Myeloid Cells Promotes Disease Progression and Severity in S. rectivirgula Induced Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis
Introduction: Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an inflammation driven interstitial lung disease characterized by inflammation of the interstitium, bronchioles, and alveoli of the lung that leads to granuloma formation. Myeloid lineage immune cells play a critical role in the early and late …

Toll-like Receptors 2 and 9 Are Important for Innate Immune Cell Activation and Recruitment in Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis
<p>Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an interstitial lung disease caused by repeated inhalation of environmental antigens. The disease is characterized by alveolitis and granuloma formation; however, some patients develop chronic HP (CHP), a restrictive lung disease characterized by fibrosis. …
