ated, he proposed that the life cycle of D. folliculorum mites was about 14.5 days. He also demonstrated that all life stages of these mites were negatively phototaxic, that is they were more mobile in a dark environment and relatively inert when bright light was shone on them. However, until optimal in vitro culture techniques and conditions allow Demodex proliferation in the laboratory, the t...

Demodex is a type of permanent obligatory parasite, which can be found on the human body surface. Currently, drugs targeting Demodex usually result in adverse effects and have a poor therapeutic effect. Thus, the aim of the present study was to investigate the use of Chinese crude medicine volatile oils for targeting and inhibiting Demodex in vitro. The volatile oils of six Chinese crude medici...

The follicle mite, Demodex folliculorum, lives in the follicles and sebaceous glands of human skin. In fact, D. folliculorum is one of the most common permanent ectoparasites of humans. Despite their prevalence in the human population, little is actually known about these mites. The Palopoli lab has begun to study variation in the mitochondrial genome of D. folliculorum. Last semester, in the p...

Introduction and objective: Rosacea is a common chronic inflammatory disease that affects approximately 10% of the population globally. The exact pathogenesis rosacea remains unknown. However, there are considered several factors such as genetic predisposition, environmental impact, immune dysregulation, well presence microorganisms. aim study to review recent knowledge about relationship betwe...
