Photo-onycholysis: two cases induced by doxycycline.
Photo-onycholysis is a phototoxic reaction, which is usually drug-induced. It consists of the separation of the nail from the nail bed due to ultraviolet radiation. We report two cases of female patients who developed distal onycholysis while receiving doxycycline. Among the drugs that cause photo-onycholysis, the most frequently cited are tetracyclines, psoralens and fluoroquinolones. Photo-on...
متن کاملPhoto-induced optical activity in phase-change memory materials
We demonstrate that optical activity in amorphous isotropic thin films of pure Ge2Sb2Te5 and N-doped Ge2Sb2Te5N phase-change memory materials can be induced using rapid photo crystallisation with circularly polarised laser light. The new anisotropic phase transition has been confirmed by circular dichroism measurements. This opens up the possibility of controlled induction of optical activity a...
متن کاملAdaptation to Stressors by Systemic Protein Amyloidogenesis.
The amyloid state of protein organization is typically associated with debilitating human neuropathies and is seldom observed in physiology. Here, we uncover a systemic program that leverages the amyloidogenic propensity of proteins to regulate cell adaptation to stressors. On stimulus, cells assemble the amyloid bodies (A-bodies), nuclear foci containing heterogeneous proteins with amyloid-lik...
متن کاملPhoto-induced Polymerization
INTRODUCTION Photo-induced polymerization'-6 is concerned with absorption of ultraviolet radiation to produce an unstable excited species. Subsequent formation of a free radical by rearrangement, fragmentation or energy transfer, followed by attack upon a monomer, leads to polymerization. Yamamoto and Oster7 have indicated that photo-induced polymerization resembles polymerization initiated by ...
متن کاملPhoto-Induced Demulsification
Demulsification is an aggressive phase-separation phenomenon of stable emulsions. Several studies have examined demulsification by chemical reactions using external stimuli, such as temperature variation, pH variation, and light irradiation. This study focused on the interfacial and emulsification properties of light-responsive surfactants because the use of light as an external stimulus is rel...
