ECZEMA (Atopic Dermatitis)
Atopic dermatitis (eczema) is a condition that makes your skin red and itchy. It's common in children but can occur at any age. Atopic dermatitis is long lasting (chronic) and tends to flare periodically. It may be accompanied by asthma or hay fever. No cure has been found for atopic dermatitis, Certain substances or conditions called trigger factors can cause eczema to flare-up: Irritants such as soaps and detergents, wool, skin infections, dry skin, low humidity, heat, sweating or emotional stress. Allergens such as dust mites, pollen, moulds, or foods.and the treatment for the condition aims to heal the affected skin and prevent flares of symptoms.Topical medications (typically, steroids or other anti-inflammatory medications, and found a correlation between eczema and the Quality of life, Recently some study have done to study the relation with COVID-19.
Drug repurposing : A new fashion for a new hope
The repurposing of drugs is becoming increasingly attractive as it avoids the long process and cost implications associated with bringing a novel drug to market i.e., drug repurposing is cost effective and time saving. This study will discuss the repositioning of several drugs that belong to different pharmaceutical classifications such as antimicrobials (itraconazole and fluoroquinolones), anti-diabetic agents (metformin and sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors), cardiovascular drugs (β-blockers and digoxin), anticonvulsants (topiramate), immunosuppressants (sirolimus), non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs e.g., COX inhibitors), and cholesterol lowering drugs (statins).

Curcumin : clinical uses, health effects and potential complications
Curcumin is a natural product with polyphenolic structure. It is used in therapeutic remedies alone or in combination with other natural substances. Many researchers are investigating it because of its biological activities such as: anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-protozoal, anti-viral, anti-bacterial and has been found to be effective for treatment of Alzheimer, depression, headaches, fibromyalgia, leprosy, fever, menstrual problems, water retention, worms and kidney problems etc. It is an active ingredient in dietary spice, turmeric. It has reactive functional groups: a diketone moiety and two phenolic groups. Despite its unique biological activities, it suffers from some shortcomings which include: gastrointestinal problems, poor bioavailability due to its poor absorption, short half-life, poor solubility in aqueous solutions, rapid systemic elimination and antithrombotic activity which can interfere with blood clotting. The first chapter of this book reviews the different delivery systems used for incorporation of curcumin and its derivatives, release kinetics and up to date in vivo results. Chapter two discusses curcumin nano and microencapsulation and its implications on clinical uses.

Many efforts have been undertaken during the last decades to identify environmental, behavioral and genetic factors modulating the risk of cardiovascular diseases.It will explain the role of CRP - an acute-phase protein- as indicator of potential cardiovascular disease as well as a predictor of the risk for heart disease and future heart attack
Consequences of Unawareness in Usage of Some Medicines and Diet Routine
In the short term, imbalanced nutrition can contribute to stress, tiredness and our capacity to work, and over time, it can contribute to the risk of developing some illnesses and other health problems such as: being overweight or obese, tooth decay, high blood pressure. Such habits cause considerable damage to human existence such as loss of potential and motivation, premature aging of the human body and the acquisition of diseases of various kinds. Such habits include the consumption of the following substances and medications which we will focus on in our research project in order to contribute to the public health awareness and to provide people with the best way to eat, on the other hand as an effect, pharmacologist we will also include the possible therapy of such diseases. However, with their side and some other commune drugs we are used to take on daily terms or very often but it may have a toxic side effect.
Chemokine biology : Basic research and clinical application ; Vol.1 : Immunobiology of chemokines
The discovery of interleukin-8 close to 20 years ago initiated a new field of research touching on many aspects of immunology and inflammation. Interleukin-8 is just one member of a large class of structurally related chemoattractant proteins, known as chemokines. Chemokines are involved in the traffic control of leukocytes, which bear the corresponding chemokine receptors on their surfaces. Today, it is clear that chemokines affect all aspects of immunology and even many unrelated fields, such as tissue development and tumor cell metastasis. Their fundamental contributions to chronic inflammatory diseases make them a principal target for the development of novel, anti-inflammatory therapeutics.

Aspirin tablet film coated with famotidine
Focuses on enhancing the gastrointestinal tolerance of aspirin tablets by coating them with famotidine, a histamine-2 receptor antagonist known for its ability to reduce stomach acid production. The project aims to investigate the potential of famotidine coating in mitigating the gastric side effects commonly associated with aspirin usage, such as gastric irritation and ulcers. Through a series of in vitro studies, the project will evaluate the effectiveness of famotidine-coated aspirin tablets in reducing gastric mucosal damage and improving overall gastrointestinal safety.
Aspirin and omeprazole pellets
The objective of this study was to combine Aspirin and Omeprazole which are often used together in a singular capsule. Aspirin is a common drug for relieving minor aches, pains, and fevers. People also use it as an anti-inflammatory or a blood thinner. Because of its regular and continuous usage, it may cause peptic ulcers. Peptic ulcers are open sores that develop on the inside lining of your stomach and the upper portion of your small intestine which can be uncomfortable and painful. Consequently, people with ulcers resort to omeprazole to treat them...
Anti-Inflammatory diet
An anti-inflammatory diet may serves as a complementary treatment for many conditions that worsen with chronic inflammation, and an anti-inflammatory diet focuses on fresh fruits and vegetables. Combine a variety of foods that are rich in nutrients, provide a range of antioxidants, and contain healthy fats. Such as fatty fish, green tea, berries, and special herbs such as curcumin, ginger, and licorice. ..
Antibiotics as Anti-Inflammatory and Immunomodulatory Agents
Although the potential for immunomodulation has been recognized for many years there has been an explosion of data in this field with relevance especially to the treatment of chronic airway diseases. Most of the work in this field has been conducted by Japanese investigators but in the last decade there has been a body of work outside of Japan that supports and enhances these findings. The book covers basic research like effects on bacteria, anti-inflammatory and mucoregulatory effects, but also clinical results with up-to-date information for the use of such medications to potentially treat diseases as diverse as chronic airway diseases, arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and cancer.
Animal Models of T Cell-Mediated Skin Diseases
Pharmaceutical companies are spending increasing amounts of money on drug discovery and development. Nevertheless, attrition rates in clinical development are still very high, and up to 90% of new compounds fail in clinical phase I - III trials, which is partially due to lack of clinical efficacy. This indicates a strong need for highly predictive in vitro and in vivo models. The "50th International Workshop of the Ernst Schering Research Foundation" focussed on "Animal Models of T Cell-Mediated Skin Diseases". Such animal models should have impact not only on inflammatory dermatoses but also on other inflammatory disorders due to their model character. The current volume summarises recent advances in animal research that are important for anti-inflammatory drug discovery.
