Hyaluronan (HA) is an essential component of extracellular matrix in the skin, but its functions in the epidermis remain elusive.

We examined the interaction of increased HA production mediated by 1-ethyl-β-N-acetylglucosaminide (β-NAG2), a newly developed highly selective inducer of HA production which is intracellularly converted to UDP-N-acetylglucosamine, a substrate of HA, with epidermal proliferation and differentiation.

The amount, molecular size and epidermal tissue distribution of HA and expression of CD44, a cell surface receptor for HA, were analyzed in β-NAG2-treated organ cultured human skin, reconstructed human skin equivalents or cultured human skin keratinocytes. The relationship between HA and epidermal proliferation or differentiation was examined.

β-NAG2 significantly increased HA production in the epidermis of skin explants or skin equivalents without affecting molecular size of HA (>2000 kDa) or CD44 mRNA expression. Histochemical experiments revealed that β-NAG2 enhances HA siiation.

Timely recognition of malignant melanoma (MM) is challenging for dermatologists worldwide and represents the main determinant for mortality. Dermoscopic examination is influenced by dermatologists' experience and fails to achieve adequate accuracy and reproducibility in discriminating atypical nevi (AN) from early melanomas (EM).

We aimed to develop a Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) model able to support dermatologists in the classification and management of atypical melanocytic skin lesions (aMSL).

A training set (630 images), a validation set (135) and a testing set (214) were derived from the idScore dataset of 979 challenging aMSL cases in which the dermoscopic image is integrated with clinical data (age, sex, body site and diameter) and associated with histological data. A DCNN_aMSL architecture was designed and then trained on both dermoscopic images of aMSL and the clinical/anamnestic data, resulting in the integrated "iDCNN_aMSL" model. Responses of 111 dermatologists with different expcuracy and for medical decision making by reducing their rates of inappropriate excisions.

Agadatantra is one of the eight clinical branches into which Ayurveda medicine is traditionally divided. The term Agadatantra is used specifically for the branch of Ayurvedic medicine dealing with poisons, its description, and its antidotes. The other parts of the subject include Vyavahar Ayurveda and Vidhi Vaidyaka which are comprehensible with forensic medicine and medical jurisprudence of modern medical sciences. Being one of the important subjects during the undergraduate studies of Ayurveda (BAMS), it holds a substantial position in the entire syllabus. The present study was designed to appraise the attitude and knowledge of Ayurveda graduates on the practical application of the subject in day to day professional life.

It was a cross-sectional study conducted online among the students, teachers, and practitioners of Ayurveda. A pre-validated survey questionnaire was uploaded on GoogleDocs. The sharable link was made available online from 12

November 2018 to 31st Jan 2020 for recording the responses tra. The existing syllabus should be revised entirely considering it as one of the clinical subjects. Concrete practical based teaching with ample clinical exposure is the need of the hour in the subject of Agadatantra to enhance its practical applicability.Sourdough is a naturally fermented dough that is used worldwide to produce a variety of baked foods. Various lactic acid bacteria (LAB), which can determine the quality of sourdough baked foods by producing metabolites, have been found in the sourdough ecosystem. However, spontaneous fermentation of sourdough leads to unpredictable growth of various micro-organisms, which result in unstable product quality. From an ecological perspective, many researchers have recently studied sourdough LAB diversity, particularly the elucidation of LAB community interactions and the dynamic mechanisms during the fermentation process, in response to requests for the control and design of a desired sourdough microbial community. MPP antagonist chemical structure This article reviews recent advances in the study of sourdough LAB diversity and its dynamics in association with unique characteristics of the fermentation system; it also discusses future perspectives for better understanding of the complex sourdough microbial ecosystem, which can be attained efficiently by both in vitro and in situ experimental approaches.Central neurocytoma is a rare benign brain tumor that typically arises from the subependymal lining of the lateral ventricles in young adults and is generally associated with excellent survival following neurosurgical excision alone. This is a retrospective clinical audit of biopsy-proven neurocytoma registered between 2004 and 2019 at a single institution in India. All time-to event outcomes were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method and compared with the log-rank test. Any p-value 5-years after initial diagnosis) underscoring the importance of long-term follow-up. Atypical/high-grade histology was associated with inferior survival that may stand to benefit with upfront adjuvant radiotherapy. This represents the largest single-institution series of central neurocytoma and demonstrates excellent outcomes with adequate surgical resection alone, reserving radiotherapy for large residual tumor, recurrent disease, and/or atypical high-grade histology.Dural carotid-cavernous fistulas (DCCF) are located in the cavernous sinus wall involving the arterial feeders from the external and internal carotid arteries. The venous route usually passes through the internal jugular vein and inferior petrosal sinus (IPS) up to the pathologic shunts of the cavernous sinus. In cases of a thrombosed IPS, catheterization is not always possible because of the obstruction. Here, we report eight cases of DCCF treated with endovascular transvenous embolization via the superficial middle temporal vein (SMTV). A retrospective study involving eight patients with DCCF treated with transvenous embolization via SMTV was performed. In six patients, IPS was thrombosed. In one patient, IPS was patent, but we could not catheterize the internal jugular vein. In the other patient, because of the compartmentalization of the cavernous sinus, we could not access the anterior part of the cavernous sinus via IPS. Therefore, we performed the embolization via SMTV to occlude the shunts of the anterior part of the cavernous sinus.
