Severe Adverse Reaction to Measles Vaccine Due to Homozygous Mutation in the IFNAR2 Gene: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Receiving the measles vaccination is crucial for controlling the disease and preventing severe complications. However, adverse reactions can occur in individuals with inborn errors of immunity. This case report details a severe reaction to the measles vaccine in a ten-month-old female with a homozygous mutation in the IFNAR2 gene, leading to immunodeficiency-45.

Generalized pustular psoriasis in a toddler with IL36RN mutation: a case report.

Generalized Pustular Psoriasis (GPP) is a dermatological autoinflammatory disease that rarely occurs in children and is associated with complex genetic factors. GPP pathogenesis has been associated with mutations in IL36RN gene, which encodes an interleukin-36 receptor antagonist. GPP usually occurs without a history of psoriasis in the patients or their family members.

Cerebrospinal fluid microRNAs as potential biomarkers in Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the leading form of dementia worldwide, but its early detection and diagnosis remain a challenge. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a group of small endogenous RNA molecules that regulate mRNA expression. Recent evidence suggests miRNAs play an important role in the five major hallmarks of AD pathophysiology: amyloidogenesis, tauopathy, neuroinflammation, synaptic dysfunction, and neuronal death.

Motivators and barriers to research participation among medical students in Saudi Arabia.

Little is known about the obstacles medical students face when conducting research in Saudi Arabia. Moreover, the proportion of medical students in research has been unknown in our region compared to other regions. We sought to identify the barriers and motivators that influence undergraduate medical students in pursuing research.

Neutrophil extracellular traps in central nervous system pathologies: A mini review.

Neutrophils are the first cells to be recruited to sites of acute inflammation and contribute to host defense through phagocytosis, degranulation and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). Neutrophils are rarely found in the brain because of the highly selective blood-brain barrier (BBB). However, several diseases disrupt the BBB and cause neuroinflammation.
