Lesional and circulating levels of interleukin -17 and 25 - hydroxycholecalciferol in active acne vulgaris: correlation to disease severity
Objectives: The immunological aspects of inflammatory acne are still incompletely understood, so the current study aims to investigate the possible role of IL-17 and 25 hydroxycholecalciferol (25(OH)D3) in the disease pathogenesis and progression. Materials and Methods: Across-sectional study has been conducted on 135 patients with active acne vulgaris of various severities and 150 matched controls. ELISA assays of serum and ... Read more

Survivin as a Novel Biomarker in the Pathogenesis of Acne Vulgaris and Its Correlation to Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I
Survivin, a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein family, has an important role in cell cycle regulation. Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is a polypeptide hormone with wide range of biologic effects including stimulation of lipogenesis in sebaceous glands. Their overexpression in some fibrotic disorders suggests a possible implication of both IGF-I and survivin in the pathogenesis of acne and/or ... Read more
