chronic itch in the mouse model of IMQ-induced psoriasis (Lee et al., 2019 [non-peer reviewed material posted to a preprint server]1; Riol-Blanco et al., 2014) and (ii) regulates responses to 5-HT, whose altered expression is associated with psoriasis in humans (Younes and Bakry, ...
A better understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying chronic itch is critical to the development of effective and safe therapeutic strategies to provide relief for this debilitating skin condition. Our data provided the first evidence that both TRPA1 and TRPV1 channels are ...

This relief of autoinhibition allows the Itch HECT domain to accept ubiquitin on its catalytic cysteine and, subsequently, ubiquitylate substrate. Discussion Proper orchestration of the ubiquitylation cascade is critical for cellular functions. Catalytic E3 ubiquitin ligases, which provide substrate ...
Contrary to what most people believe, it’s not that “normal” for a dog to be itchy and scratch often. Yeah, they might get like an itch here and there as we humans do, and we scratch it, and that’s the end of it. One of my dogs used to ‘itch’ in the summertime. Doctor...
Oatmeal is safe for dogs and humans and provides them with relief just like it does for us. Just give your dog an oatmeal bath. To do so, grind oatmeal to create a powder and sprinkle some into warm bathwater. Have your dog soak for about 10 to 15 minutes. Don’t worry if he lick...

In another randomized controlled trial evaluating Cryosim-1 gel for scalp pruritus, pruritus NRS scores significantly decreased two hours after cryosim-1 application when compared to the vehicle, and this rapid itch relief translated into an improved quality of life in those patients [58]. ...
