Filter by:On the basis of previous studies, a validation cohort will be established to explore the relationship between oral lichen planus and autoimmune thyroid diseases, and a disease efficacy prediction strategy can be formed.
This study is designed to investigate the effectiveness of plaque control intervention by home-use dual-light aPDT Lumoral -device as an adjunctive or alternative treatment to triamcinolone acetonide (TCA) mouth rinse or other topical corticosteroid treatment on the symptoms and clinical appearance of symptomatic gingival involvement of oral lichen planus (OLP).
Assessment The oncogenic potential of salivary microRNA-93 and microRNA-412-3p in oral lichen planus
tacrolimus has been widely used as an immunosuppressant. the objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of tacrolimus 0.1 % in muco adhesive patch compared to tacrolimus or corticosteroids in paste forms for symptomatic oral lichen planus, and to investigate the effect of topical tacrolimus or corticosteroids on the expression of caspase-3 in oral lichen planus as an early marker of apoptosis using immunohistochemically analysis
Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory and immune-mediated disease affecting the oral mucosa. OLP presents with asymptomatic, lacelike white stripes and/or symptomatic red, ulcerated mucous membranes. Eating, drinking and oral hygiene procedures may be painful resulting in reduced quality of life (QOL). Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a new suggestion for OLP treatment PDT is a successful treatment mo- dality for premalignant and malignant diseases of head and neck,gastrointestinal tract, lung, and skin In this study, the effect of photodynamic therapy with topical corticosteroid in oral lichen planus patients was compared
Lesions of the lichen planus type within the oral mucosa are now considered a potentially cancerous condition. One of the minimally invasive methods of treating these lesions is photodynamic therapy, and the gold standard in therapy is topical steroid administration
Oral lichen planus (OLP) is one of the most common mucosal diseases with autoimmune etio-pathogenesis with involvement of various cytokines similar to psoriasis.It generally occurs more commonly in females, in a ratio of 3:2. prolactin (PRL),It is a peptide hormone that has a role in autoimmune related diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus and , rheumatoid Artheritis. The role of PrL in OLP pathogenesis was never investigated.the aim of this study is to investigate the expression of PRL receptors in tissue biopsies of OLP patients.
Treatment of oral lichen planus is challenging. Diverse therapeutic modalities have been suggested, but a permanent cure is not yet available. In some OLP patients, topical corticosteroid alone is not sufficiently enough, thus it may require a supplementation to augment its effect. Micronutrients are gaining more attention as therapeutic modalities in immunologic disorders. Researchers are recommended to conduct further clinical studies are to assess the role of these elements in management of OLP (Gholizadeh & Sheykhbahaei, 2020). Among the less visited micronutrients are zinc and vitamin D. This trial will assess their role in management of OLP.
Synucleins are a family of small, highly conserved proteins found in vertebrates and are specially abundant in neurons particularly in presynaptic terminals (Surguchov et al., 2001). Gamma-synuclein is the third member of the synuclein family, and is predominantly found in the cytosol of tumor cells and functions both intra- and extra-cellularly. It is involved in the pathogenesis of different types of cancer and some neurodegenerative diseases (Liu et al., 2018). Smoking - a major risk factor for oral cancer and its progression - and nicotine-containing products were found to time-dependently up-regulate the Gamma-synuclein expression in cancer cells (Hsu et al., 2020a). Gamma-synuclein is released from tumor cells and was found to be elevated in tumors such as urinary bladder cancer (Liu et al., 2016), colorectal cancer, gastric adenocarcinomas and esophageal cancer (Liu et al., 2012). It is present in blood, serum, cerebrospinal fluid and saliva. The detection of extracellular synucleins in body fluids can reveal the first steps of the disease thus it can be used as a potential tool for early cancer detection (Surguchov, 2016). This study aims to identify the diagnostic accuracy of Gamma-synuclein in differentiating between oral malignant lesions and oral premalignant lesions.
Topical steroid therapy is considered the first line of treatment for Oral Inflammatory Ulcerative Diseases with current treatment regimens requiring multiple application or rinses daily. Using Mucolox™ as a vehicle to deliver topical dexamethasone to the oral mucosa has the potential to effectively prolong contact time between the medication. The primary objective of this study is to determine the clinical efficacy and tolerability of compound dexamethasone at 0.5 mg/5 mL in Mucolox™ for the treatment of Oral Inflammatory Ulcerative Diseases as measured by a reduction in oral symptoms between patients treated with compounded dexamethasone 0.5mg/5ml solution in Mucolox™ (group A) and patients treated with topical commercial dexamethasone 0.5mg/5ml solution only (group B). and mucosa, leading to improved clinical outcomes due to the need for less frequent application.
