Introduction and purpose: Autoimmune diseases are conditions where the body’s immune system is unable to distinguish between auto- foreign antigens mistakenly attacks its cells, tissues, organs. In recent years it became major public health concern because of increasing diagnosis rate. Currently, about 5% population in Western countries affected by such diseases, more often women population. The exact cause autoimmune unknown, although most probably results from a combination genetic predisposition, environmental risk factors dysregulation. Development autoantigen-specific lymphocytes autoantibodies might be decisive starting process autoimmunity. Most common medication used treatment nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSADs), glucocorticoids, disease-modifying antirheumatic (DMARDs). Additionally, there biological available for many them. It known that non-pharmacological interventions, as specific diets, supplementation or physical exercise useful mitigate disease even prevent body onset. Materials methods: data article was found using PubMed Google Scholar websites. key words search included: ‘diet autoimmunity’, ‘autoimmunity estrogens’, ‘microbiota autoimmunity’. Articles not written English, conference abstracts only duplicated papers were excluded. Conclusions: There still no cure various prevention mitigation strategies can help manage these improve quality life individuals. However, use some them, evidence-based recommendations available. This review highlights current therapeutic options.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by squamous and erythematous plaques on the skin involvement of immune system. Global prevalence for psoriasis has been reported around 1–3% with higher incidence in adults similar proportions between men women. The risk factors associated are both extrinsic intrinsic, out which polygenic predisposition highlight latter. etiology not yet fully described, but several hypothesis have proposed: 1) autoimmunity based over-expression antimicrobial peptides such as LL-37, proteins ADAMTSL5, K17, hsp27, or lipids synthesized PLA2G4D enzyme, all may serve autoantigens to promote differentiation autoreactive lymphocytes T unleash response; 2) dysbiosis microbiota gained relevance due observations loss diversity participation pathogenic bacteria Streptococcus spp. Staphylococcus fungi Malassezia Candida virus HPV, HCV, HIV psoriatic plaques; 3) oxidative stress hypothesis, most recent one, describes that cell injury release proinflammatory mediators leads activate Th1/Th17 axis observed caused reactive oxygen species imbalance oxidant antioxidant mechanisms.

Currently, there is an increased interest from both scientists and consumers in the application of cannabis/hemp/phytocannabinoids skin-related disorders. However, most previous investigations assessed pharmacological properties hemp extracts, cannabidiol (CBD), or tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), with very few studies focusing on minor phytocannabinoids hemp. In this context, current work explored vitro anti-melanoma, anti-melanogenic, anti-tyrosinase effects (CBD) three phytocannabinoids, namely cannabigerol (CBG), cannabinol (CBN), cannabichromene (CBC). Among tested human malignant melanoma cells (A375, SH4, G361), only A375 were highly susceptible to 48 h treatment four (IC50 values between 12.02 25.13 μg/mL). When melanogenesis was induced murine B16F10 by α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (αMSH), CBD, CBG, CBN significantly decreased extracellular (29.76–45.14% αMSH+ cells) intracellular (60.59–67.87% melanin content at 5 μg/mL. Lastly, (50–200 μg/mL) inhibited mushroom tyrosinase, whereas CBG CBC (100–200 down-regulated tyrosinase activity; contrast, CBD practically inactive. The data show that inhibition might not be responsible for reducing biosynthesis α-MSH-treated cells. By evaluating first time preliminary confirming similar study can expand utilization and, particular, novel cosmeceutical products skin care.

Abstract In recent years, the medical use of cannabinoids has attracted growing attention worldwide. particular, anti‐inflammatory properties led to their emergence as potential therapeutic options for autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. Recent studies have also shown that cannabinoid receptors are widely expressed endogenous ligands in skin, suggesting skin its own endocannabinoid system. The aim this review is discuss effects diseases. Following an overview system, we describe cellular molecular mechanisms health disease.

Recently, cannabinoids have gained scientific interest as a promising anti-infective natural product class, reported in several studies. However, the existing knowledge is mainly limited to common like THC and CBD. Therefore, this study aims fill gap by investigating potential of nine selected (both rare cannabinoids): THC, CBD, CBC, CBE, CBF, CBG, CBL, CBN, CBT against Clostridium perfringens Influenza A (H5N1) neuraminidases SARS-CoV-2 main protease spike protein–human ACE2 interaction using standard vitro biochemical enzyme-binding assay. As result, authors’ knowledge, first demonstrate most effect CBG over others its class C. influenza interaction. In comparison CBD were second third candidates. Meanwhile, other derivatives, such CBT, showed at least one effect. Our findings during early drug discovery process indicate cannabinoids, which can be considered for further investigation biological setup.
