Comparison of rheological properties, follicular penetration, drug release, and permeation behavior of a novel topical drug delivery system and a conventional cream.

Eur. J. Pharm. Biopharm. 88(3) , 614-24, (2015)

A novel adapalene-loaded solid lipid microparticle (SLMA) dispersion as a topical drug delivery system (TDDS) for follicular penetration has been introduced. The objective of the present study was to investigate the rheological properties, the follicular pene...

Impaired aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 subfamily member 2A-dependent retinoic acid signaling is related with a mesenchymal-like phenotype and an unfavorable prognosis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Mol. Cancer 14(1) , 204, (2015)

An inverse correlation between expression of the aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 subfamily A2 (ALDH1A2) and gene promoter methylation has been identified as a common feature of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). Moreover, low ALDH1A2 expression was assoc...

Origins of the breast milk-derived cells; an endeavor to find the cell sources.

Cell Biol. Int. 39(5) , 611-8, (2015)

Fresh human breast milk consists of a heterogeneous population of cells that may offer a non-invasive source of cells for therapeutic proposes. The aims of this study were to characterize the breast milk-derived cells cultured in vitro. To do this, the cells ...

Evaluation of retinoids for induction of the redundant gene ABCD2 as an alternative treatment option in X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy.

PLoS ONE 9(7) , e103742, (2014)

X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD), the most common peroxisomal disorder, is a clinically heterogeneous disease that can manifest as devastating inflammatory cerebral demyelination (CALD) leading to death of affected males. Currently, the only curative tre...

Retinoids and rexinoids inhibit hepatitis C virus independently of retinoid receptor signaling.

Microbes Infect. 16(2) , 114-22, (2014)

Using a high-throughput screening system involving HCV JFH-1-Huh 7.5.1 cells, we determined that the ligands of class II nuclear receptors, retinoids and rexinoids inhibit HCV infection. Retinoids, ligands of retinoic acid receptor (RAR), and rexinoids, ligan...

Tazarotene versus tretinoin or adapalene in the treatment of acne vulgaris.

J. Am. Acad. Dermatol. 43(2 Pt 3) , S51-4, (2000)

The efficacy and tolerability of tazarotene 0.1% gel in the treatment of acne vulgaris have been compared with those of tretinoin 0.025% gel and adapalene 0.1% gel in multicenter, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group trials. Preliminary results from the t...

Topical tretinoin or adapalene in acne vulgaris: an overview.

J. Dermatolog. Treat. 15(4) , 200-7, (2004)

Retinoids target several pathoetiologic events of acne vulgaris. The undisputed efficacy of tretinoin, and yet its underutilization, due to apprehension of retinoid dermatitis, triggered a search for newer, well-tolerated retinoids. The discovery of nuclear r...

Epiduo (adapalene 0.1% and benzoyl peroxide 2.5%) approval in children 9 years and older.

Skinmed 11(5) , 295-6, (2013)

Adapalene 0.1% and benzoyl peroxide 2.5%: a novel combination for treatment of acne vulgaris.

Skin Therapy Lett. 14(6) , 4-5, (2009)

Topical products commonly used to treat acne include retinoids and antimicrobials, due to their effects on different components of pathogenesis. Accordingly, a fixed combination of adapalene 0.1% and benzoyl peroxide (BPO) 2.5% was developed (Epiduo, Galderma...

Adapalene 0.1%/benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel: a review of its use in the treatment of acne vulgaris in patients aged ≥ 12 years.

Am. J. Clin. Dermatol. 12(6) , 407-20, (2011)

Adapalene 0.1%/benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel (Epiduo™, Tactuo™) is the only fixed-dose combination product available that combines a topical retinoid with benzoyl peroxide; it targets three of the four main pathophysiologic factors in acne. This article reviews t...
