Identification of New Potential Allergens from Green-lipped Mussel (Perna Canaliculus)
Iran J Allergy Asthma Immunol. 2022 Dec 24;21(6):711-715. doi: 10.18502/ijaai.v21i6.11532.ABSTRACTThe green-lipped mussel (Perna canaliculus) originates from New Zealand. To preserve the health benefits of green-lipped mussel meat, it is freeze-dried to make a long-lasting powder. The powder is used to treat arthritis because of its potential anti-inflammatory properties. The report describes a 54-year-old woman who developed immediate rhinoconjunctival and respiratory symptoms after inhaling green-lipped mussel powder she gave to her dog for arthritis. A skin prick test with green-lipped mussel powder was performed. Prote...

MicroRNAs Targeting Programmed Cell Death Protein 1 (PD-1) Promote Natural Killer Cell Exhaustion in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Iran J Allergy Asthma Immunol. 2022 Dec 24;21(6):646-656. doi: 10.18502/ijaai.v21i6.11524.ABSTRACT Natural killer (NK) cells play a role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Upregulated levels of programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) is a sign of exhausted NK cells that could be regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs). In this investigation, we determined PD‑1 expression on NK cells (as a representation of NK cell exhaustion) in RA patients and evaluated if miRNAs are involved in the modulation of PD-1 expression in NK cells. Peripheral blood specimens were obtained from 40 RA patients and 20 healthy subjects. NK c...

Importance of STAT3 Polymorphisms on the Risk and Clinical Characteristics of Rheumatoid Arthritis
In this study, we intended to evaluate the association of two miRSNPs with the risk of RA development and its clinical features. We studied 120 Iranian patients with RA and 125 non-RA subjects as controls. The genotypes and alleles of rs1053005 and rs1053023 in each individual were assessed by the high-resolution melting method. The distribution of STAT3 variants did not differ markedly in RA patients compared to healthy controls. Stratification analysis revealed that rs1053005 was linked with a higher concentration of C-reactive protein and an increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate, two indicators of inflammation and di...

Agent in Urgent Need of Clinical Practice: Corilagin
Mini Rev Med Chem. 2023 Jan 12. doi: 10.2174/1389557523666230112110317. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCorilagin is a naturally occurring water-soluble retrogallic acid tannin, which can be extracted from many kinds of plants. Known at present, it is the main effective ingredient of Phyllanthus urinaria L., Geranium wilfordii Maxim., Phyllanthus matsumurae Hayata, and Trifolium repens L. It also exists in Phyllanthus emblica L., Dimocarpus longan Lour., Canarium album (Lour.) Raeusch., and Terminalia chebula Retz. It can participate in a variety of signaling pathways in vivo and has multiple biological activities, including...

Cervical disc arthroplasty (CDA)/total disc replacement (TDR) vs. anterior cervical diskectomy/fusion (ACDF): A review
CONCLUSION: Cervical CDA/TDR studies performed in appropriately selected patients showed a "lack of inferiority", occasional superiority, a reduction in the incidence of ASD, and ASD reoperation rates, plus comparable safety/efficacy vs. ACDF.PMID:36600752 | PMC:PMC9805637 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_1028_2022
