Resumen
Vitamina D y sus derivados
Área de la Ciencia:
- Dermatología e inmunología, enfocándose en enfermedades inflamatorias de la piel.
Sus antecedentes:
- La dermatitis atópica (DA) es una enfermedad inflamatoria crónica prevalente que afecta tanto a niños como a adultos.
- Investigar posibles agentes terapéuticos como la vitamina D es crucial para controlar la gravedad de la enfermedad de Alzheimer.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Evaluar críticamente la importancia clínica y los beneficios terapéuticos de la vitamina D en el tratamiento de la dermatitis atópica.
- Sintetizar la evidencia actual sobre el papel de la vitamina D en la EA a partir de varios diseños de estudio.
Principales métodos:
- Una revisión exhaustiva de la literatura de estudios observacionales, estudios en animales y ensayos controlados aleatorios (ECA).
- Se realizaron búsquedas en la base de datos de PubMed para estudios publicados después de 2019, utilizando manuscritos de texto completo en inglés.
Principales resultados:
- Los estudios de observación arrojaron resultados mixtos, indicando tanto efectos terapéuticos potenciales como ninguna influencia significativa de la vitamina D en la EA.
- El polimorfismo del receptor de vitamina D (VDR) puede estar correlacionado con la aparición y la gravedad de la EA.
- Los ECA y los estudios en animales proporcionaron pruebas no concluyentes o limitadas, con modelos en animales que mostraron atenuación de los síntomas en ratones.
Conclusiones:
- La investigación actual sobre la eficacia de la vitamina D en la dermatitis atópica no es concluyente debido a hallazgos contradictorios y limitaciones metodológicas.
- Se necesitan estudios a largo plazo a gran escala y bien diseñados para establecer definitivamente el papel de la vitamina D en el tratamiento de la EA.

Role of Skin in Vitamin D Synthesis
5.6K
The skin plays a crucial role in the synthesis of vitamin D, a vital nutrient for various physiological processes in the body. Vitamin D is unique because it can be synthesized in the skin through a series of chemical reactions triggered by exposure to ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation from sunlight.
The solar UV B rays (290-315 nm) are absorbed by the skin, and 7-dehydrocholesterol (provitamin D3) photolyzes it to previtamin D3, which undergoes a rapid transformation to vitamin...

Connective Tissue Cell Types
3.4K
Connective tissue develops from the mesoderm of a developing embryo and consists of cells, fibers, and ground substance: a gel-like material containing large complexes of carbohydrates and proteins. Connective tissue was first identified as a separate tissue family in the 18th century, and Johannes Peter Muller coined the term connective tissue.
Fat cells (adipocytes), smooth muscle cells (myoblasts), and bone cells (osteoblasts) are some connective tissue cell types. Some immune system cells...

Changes in Skin Color: Clinical Perspectives
2.2K
The first thing a clinician sees is the skin, so the examination of the skin should be part of any thorough physical examination. Most skin disorders are relatively benign, but a few, including melanomas, can be fatal if untreated. A couple of the more noticeable disorders, albinism and vitiligo, affect the appearance of the skin and its accessory organs.
Albinism
Albinism is a genetic disorder that affects (completely or partially) the coloring of skin, hair, and eyes. The defect is primarily...

Inflammatory Bowel Disease III: Diagnostic Studies and Management I-Nutritional Therapy
413
Various diagnostic tests are employed in the diagnostic process for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), particularly to differentiate between Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
Diagnostic studies
A colonoscopy is the definitive screening test, distinguishing ulcerative colitis from other colon diseases with similar symptoms. During a colonoscopy test, inflamed mucosa with exudate ulcerations can be observed, and biopsies are taken to determine the histologic characteristics of the...
