Sebum lipids influence macrophage polarization and activation.
Br J Dermatol
December 2017
Department of Dermatology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Debrecen, Debrecen, Hungary.
Background: As lipids are known to regulate macrophage functions, it is reasonable to suppose that a sebocyte-macrophage axis mediated by sebum lipids may exist.
Objectives: To investigate if sebocytes could contribute to the differentiation, polarization and function of macrophages with their secreted lipids.
Methods: Oil Red O lipid staining and Raman spectroscopy were used to assess the dermal lipid content and penetration.
Meta-analysis of air pollution exposure association with allergic sensitization in European birth cohorts.
J Allergy Clin Immunol
March 2014
Institute of Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden; Centre for Occupational and Environmental Medicine, Stockholm County Council, Stockholm, Sweden.
Background: Evidence on the long-term effects of air pollution exposure on childhood allergy is limited.
Objective: We investigated the association between air pollution exposure and allergic sensitization to common allergens in children followed prospectively during the first 10 years of life.
Methods: Five European birth cohorts participating in the European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution Effects project were included: BAMSE (Sweden), LISAplus and GINIplus (Germany), MAAS (Great Britain), and PIAMA (The Netherlands).
Influence of dietary factors, age and nickel contact dermatitis on nickel excretion.
Contact Dermatitis
December 2012
