The causes of incomplete remyelination in progressive multiple sclerosis are unknown, as are the pathological correlates of the different clinical characteristics of patients with primary and secondary progressive disease. We analysed brains and spinal cords from 51 patients with progressive
Recent advances of biotechnology have laid the groundwork for potent and specific molecular-targeting therapies including RNA interference. The largest remaining hurdle for widespread use of this technology in skin is an effective delivery system. Here, we demonstrate an effective topical

Pulmonary surfactant is a complex mixture of phospholipids and four surfactant-associated proteins (SP-A, SP-B, SP-C and SP-D). The biological functions of SP-A and SP-D are primarily twofold, namely surfactant homeostasis and host defense. The hydrophobic surfactant proteins, SP-B and SP-C
On the basis of the information about drug receptor on voltage-gated sodium channels, mexiletine (Mex) analogs with substitutions at either the asymmetric carbon atom or the aromatic ring were synthesized as pure enantiomers. The compounds were tested in vitro for
Bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis (BPS/IC), diagnosed according to the new 2008 criteria of the European Society for the Study of Interstitial Cystitis (ESSIC), may lead to detrusor fibrosis. In some inflammatory diseases, fibrosis is related to YKL-40. The aims were
