autism obesity acne and allergies. The co-directors are presenting their research collaboration this week at an MGH-hosted conference on microbes metabolism and mucosal circuits.
A number of compounds that contain sulfur have proven useful in the treatment of conditions ranging from acne and eczema to arthritis and cancer."
This vastatinbirth control method would be free of unpleasant side-effects like mood swings, acne and breast tenderness,
They include for example an acne medication and a treatment for anthrax developed for use in case of a bioterrorist attack.
#Nanoparticles used to prevent inflammatory acne through slow-released nitric oxide GW researcher and dermatologist, Adam Friedman, M d,
and prevent acne through nanotechnology. This research, published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, identified that the nanoparticles were effective at killing Proprionobacterium acnes,
the gram positive bacteria associated with acne, and even more importantly, they inhibited the damaging inflammation that result in the large,
painful lesions associated with inflammatory acne.""Our understanding of acne has changed dramatically in the last 15-20 years,
"said Friedman, associate professor of dermatology at the GW School of medicine and Health Sciences and co-author of the study."
"Inflammation is really the driving force behind all types of acne. In this paper, we provide an effective a way to kill the bacterium that serves as a stimulus for Acne without using an antibiotic,
and demonstrate the means by which nitric oxide inhibits newly recognized pathways central to the formation of a pimple,
present in the skin even before you can see the acne.""While the body makes nitric oxide for many purposes, its impact,
such as anti-inflammatory effects, are lived short. Because nitric oxide interacts with its environment so quickly and is active for only a few seconds,
which the nanoparticles could be a new way to tackle Acne, one of the most common dermatologic diseases affecting between 40-50 million people each year.
Acne develops due to an inappropriate immune system response to various factors, including bacteria on the skin such as P. acnes.
The focus of this study was on a new pathway that was highlighted recently by the team at UCLA,
involving what is known as an inflammasome, responsible for the activation of the inflammatory process in Acne."
this approach may lead to better treatment options for acne sufferers, and possibly treatments for other inflammatory skin conditions
