Topical corticosteroids (TC) consistently show effectiveness against itch, a paradigmatic symptom, in various eczemas. Rapid itch relief is a therapeutic goal. The early response of itch to TC has not been adequately studied. To assess the effect on itch of
This study was conducted to investigate the beneficial role of naringin on nickel induced nephrotoxicity. Nickel (Ni) (20mg/kg body weight (b.w.) was administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) for 20 days. Naringin was administered orally (20, 40 and 80 mg/kg b.w.) with i.p.

It has been well recognized that toxicity of fine ambient air particulate matter (PM(2.5)) may depend on its chemical constituents, including components such as soluble metals that may theoretically exert distinctive effects. We have recently demonstrated an important effect of
There are currently no skin sensitization assays based on T cell activation. We built a novel in vitro model to assess T cell activation and test its performance to discriminate skin sensitizers from non-sensitizers using 52 reference chemicals. Jurkat Clone

We have previously reported patch test reactivity to nickel sulphate in a cohort of unselected infants tested repeatedly at 3-18 months of age. A reproducible positive reaction at 12 and 18 months was selected as a sign of nickel sensitivity provided a
