Bilateral Vitreous Hemorrhage in a Young Man with Pustular Psoriasis
Skinmed. 2022 Feb 28;20(1):69-71. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTA 25-year-old man consulted us with a severe exacerbation of pustular psoriasis for 10 days (Figure 1). The patient had pustular psoriasis for the last 12 years. During his hospital stay, he suffered sudden painless and profound loss of vision in both eyes. Subsequently, he was referred to an ophthalmologist. Slit lamp examination of both eyes revealed the presence of a clot in anterior chamber with neovascularization of the iris and the fibrovascular membrane covering the pupil and iris bombe formation nasally and inferiorly (Figure 2a).

Topical ophthalmic beta-blockers are associated with ocular pseudopemphigoid: A pharmacovigilance study of antiglaucoma medications utilising the FDA adverse event reporting system
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings support an association between OPP and antiglaucoma medications; under the most stringent control for topical irritant/preservative effect by of comparison to topical eye drops, unoprostone, carteolol, betaxolol and timolol all had a significant ROR for OPP.PMID:35316535 | DOI:10.1111/ajd.13828 (Source: The Australasian Journal of Dermatology)

Molecules, Vol. 27, Pages 1938: The Effect of Beta Adrenoreceptor Blockers on Viability and Cell Colony Formation of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Cell Lines A549 and H1299
ė Beta adrenoblockers are a large class of drugs used to treat cardiovascular diseases, migraines, glaucoma and hyperthyroidism. Over the last couple of decades, the anticancer effects of these compounds have been extensively studied. However, the exact mechanism is still not known, and more detailed studies are required. The aim of our study was to evaluate the anticancer activity of beta adrenoblockers in non-small cell lung cancer cell lines A549 and H1299. In order to find the relationship with their selectivity to beta adrenoreceptors, selective (atenolol, betaxolol, esmolol, metoprolol) and non-selective (pindol...

Infantile Hemangioma: A Current Review
Infantile hemangiomas (IHs) are common vascular lesions which are benign but can cause significant functional and cosmetic morbidity. Since the fortuitous discovery of propranolol being effective to treat IH over a decade ago, the therapy and prognosis for children with IH have improved dramatically. Oral propranolol (as well as other oral beta-blockers and topical timolol) are safe and effective treatments, and have now supplanted other therapies. Making the correct diagnosis is crucial, because other vascular lesions can mimic IH. In addition, IH can be the first manifestation of an underlying syndrome. For IH requiring ...

Combination product of dermal matrix, preconditioned human mesenchymal stem cells and timolol promotes wound healing in the porcine wound model
Applying a combination treatment as shown in steps 1 –3, MSCs preconditioned in timolol at hypoxia on wound scaffolds (MSC-scaffold) with daily topical timolol solution to wounds, improves wound healing in a porcine model. The treatment promotes reepithelialization in the excisional wounds by 40.2% and increases angiogenesis by elevating CD31 immuno staining compared with the control, while the accumulated timolol concentration detected in plasma remains below the clinically safe level of 0.3 ng/mL after the 15-day course of treatment. AbstractA combination product of human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) embedded...
