Soothe Eczema With New Scientists’ Discovery

A gene that is responsible for the itching sensation have been pinpointed by by scientist.  There findings could offer hope to eczema patients for they can lead to a new drugs to fight the condition that affects one in five children and one in 12 adults. Also those people who have kidney or liver disease and diabetes can also undergo the experience the uncontrollable urge to scratch.

In a small group of nerve cells in the spinal cord, the "itch gene" is active where pain and itch signals are both transmitted from the skin to the brain.

Researchers, compared laboratory mice with a group specially bred not to have the itchy gene, called GRPR whose findings are reported in the journal Nature today. When exposed to chemical irritants, the ordinary mice scratched "vigorously", but the mice whose GRPR gene had been knocked out scratched far less.

A serious problem will be caused by chronic itching and it can lead to sleeping disruption and scarring.

The researchers believe drugs to suppress part of the nervous system which have an essential protective function could be developed which can end itchiness but do not dampen pain signals

Psoriasis Explained Through Small Molecules

For the first time in STOCKHOLM, Sweden,  A Swedish research team has shown a microRNA might play a major role in the development of some skin diseases.

At the Karolinska Institute, Researchers led by Professor Mona Stahle said the small RNA molecules that regulate gene expression might contribute to such inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis and atopic eczema. The researchers also said thatb the therapies based on microRNA might become more effective than medicines targeted at individual proteins.

Researchers said that they believe that microRNA may also be significant in regulating other common chronic inflammatory diseases such as arthritis and certain autoimmune diseases. 

MicroRNA has different patterns of expression in psoriasis compared with the normal skin. It is also compared with atopic eczema, the scientists found.  What was found to be in partcular interest since it found that it greatly upregulated in psoriasis and only expressed by the skin’s epithelial cells was miR-203.

Laundry Tips To Prevent And Treat Dry Skin And Eczema

Your clothes are the ones that can be causing or exacerbating your dry skin or eczema.  Behold the laundry tips that will be able to prevent skin itching, flare-ups and skin infection.  What could be your need is the a good dry skin treatment product that helps retain natural moisture and avoid irritating and harmful chemicals as well as changing your laundry habits.

But now, Biomedical Research Scientist, Dr. Martin Schiele, and his team have forumlated a new range of treatments called Salcura, that are based on a certain natural plant ingredients and garnered using ‘nanotechnology.’  Nanotechnology  works by utilising the minute particles in natural ingredients to increase their surface area and make them more effective - which allows vital repair minerals to be easily absorbed, and the skin to utilise them more rapidly, to be able to reduce  the healing time.

The first line of treatemt is the ‘Intensive’ spray for individual’s that have eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis and uticaria. ‘Intensive’ is a colloidal spray which provides rapid relief from skin irritation such as itching and at the same time promotes skin repair.
