Journal ArticleDOI
Update on lichen planus and its clinical variants.
TL;DR: Clinical presentation of the rarer variant lesions may be largely dissimilar to classic LP and therefore difficult to diagnose based solely on clinical examination, however, histopathological examination of LP and LP-variant lesions reveal similar features, aiding in the proper diagnosis of the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
NF-κB contributes to the detrimental effects of social isolation after experimental stroke.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of NF-κB signaling in SI was investigated in male mice that were pair housed (PH) with an ovariectomized female prior to random assignment into continued PH or SI for 7 days prior to middle cerebral artery occlusion.
NF-κB Contributes to the Detrimental Effec ts of Social Isolation Aft er Experimental Stroke
TL;DR: Investigation of the role of nuclear factor-kappaB signaling in male mice found that interference with NF-κB signaling abolished the detrimental effects of SI on both infarct size and functional recovery, which suggests that NF-kkB mediates the detrimental effect of SI.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deletion of macrophage migration inhibitory factor worsens stroke outcome in female mice.
L. Christine Turtzo,Jun Li,Rebecca Persky,Sharon E. Benashski,Gillian Weston,Richard Bucala,Venugopal Reddy Venna,Louise D. McCullough +7 more
TL;DR: Loss of MIF exacerbated injury in the female brain after experimental stroke, which was independent of changes in pro-inflammatory cytokine levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lichen planus and other lichenoid dermatoses: Kids are not just little people.
TL;DR: The literature contains an array of reports on the variations in presentation and successful management of lichen planus and lichenoid dermatoses among diverse populations, key to accomplishing timely recognition and effective management.
