  • Urticaria Is a Skin Condition Commonly Known As Hives. It Produces an Itchy Rash That Tends to Come and Go and Can Last for a Variable Period of Time
    Hives Also known as Urticaria What is urticaria? Urticaria is a skin condition commonly known as hives. It produces an itchy rash that tends to come and go and can last for a variable period of time. The condition can be acute (lasting less than 6 weeks) or chronic (lasting longer than 6 weeks). Most cases of urticaria have no known cause. What causes urticaria? Urticaria occurs when certain substances such as histamine are released from specific cells in the skin. This process is usually triggered by various immunologic mechanisms, most commonly involving the presee of irulatig IgE atiodies, although other pathays ay also e ioled. The ause of this iuologi triggerig is uko i the ajority of ases, ut a soeties e associated with various types of infections, chronic immunologic diseases or allergy to foods or medications. The use of intravenous dyes during some radiological tests can sometimes trigger urticaria as well. Physical urticaria is a type of urticaria that may be caused by exposure of the skin to cold, heat, pressure or rubbing. What does urticaria look like? Urticaria typically looks like a raised rash that may be a normal skin colour or pinkish or red in colour. The rash may occur anywhere on the body and often starts off as small round spots that quickly enlarge and spread. The rash can be very itchy but it usually only lasts for a few hours before settling, and eventually resolving completely within 24 to 48 hours. Which other problems may occur with urticaria? A viral illness can occur before urticaria develops, especially in children.

  • Four Diseases, PLAID, APLAID, FCAS3 and CVID and One Gene
    Four diseases, PLAID, APLAID, FCAS3 and CVID and one gene (PHOSPHOLIPASE C, GAMMA-2; PLCG2 ) : striking clinical phenotypic overlap and difference Necil Kutukculer1, Ezgi Yilmaz1, Afig Berdeli1, Raziye Burcu G¨uven Bilgin1, Ayca Aykut1, Asude Durmaz1, Ozgur Cogulu1, G¨uzideAksu1, and Neslihan Karaca1 1Ege University Faculty of Medicine May 15, 2020 Abstract We suggest PLAID,APLAID and FCAS3 have to be considered as same diseases,because of our long-term clinical experiences and genetic results in six patients.Small proportion of CVID patients are also PLAID/APLAID/FCAS3 patients and all these have disease-causing-mutations in PLCG2-genes,so it may be better to define all of them as “PLCG2 deficiency”. Key Clinical Message: Germline mutations in PLCG2 gene cause PLAID,APLAID,FCAS3, and CVID.Clinical experiences in patients with PLCG2 mutations led us to consider that PLAID, APLAID and FCAS3 are same diseases.It may be better to define all of them as “PLCG2 deficiency”. INTRODUCTION The PLCG2 gene which is located on the 16th chromosome (16q23.3) encodes phospholipase Cg2 (PLCG2), a transmembrane signaling enzyme that catalyzes the production of second messenger molecules utilizing calcium as a cofactor and propagates downstream signals in several hematopoietic cells (1). Recently, het- erozygous germline mutations in human PLCG2 were linked to some clinical phenotypes with some overlap- ping features|PLCg2-associated antibody deficiency and immune dysregulation syndrome (PLAID) (OMIM 614878) and autoinflammation, antibody deficiency, and immune dysregulation syndrome (APLAID) (OMIM 614878) (2-4) and familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS3) (OMIM 614468) (5). All of them are autosomal dominant inherited diseases.

Each synthesis of these new drug candidates include multi-steps procedures. Overall, discovering a new drug is a very time-consuming and very costly works. The development of molecular modelling programs and their applications in pharmaceutical research have been formalized as a field of study known computer assisted drug design (CADD) or computer assisted molecular design (CAMD). In this study, using the above techniques, Monoamine Oxidase isozymes, which play an essential role in the oxidative deamination of the biogenic amines, were studied. Compounds that inhibit these isozymes were shown to have therapeutic value in a variety of conditions including several psychiatric and neurological as well as neurodegenerative diseases. First, a series of new pyrazoline derivatives were screened using molecular modelling and docking methods and promising lead compounds were selected, and proposed for synthesis as novel selective MAO-A or –B inhibitors.
