Summary of "Brief exposures of human body lice to sublethal amounts of ivermectin over-transcribes detoxification genes involved in tolerance."
Transcriptional profiling results, using our non-invasive induction assay {short exposure intervals (2-5 h) to sublethal amounts of insecticides [ Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA, USA Department of Agricultural Biotechnology, Seoul National University, Seoul, South Korea Department of Entomology, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, IL, USA This article was published in the following journal. Name: Insect molecular biology Lice A general name for small, wingless, parasitic insects, previously of the order Phthiraptera. Though exact taxonomy is still controversial, they can be grouped in the orders ANOPLURA (sucking lice), MALLOPHAGA (biting lice), and Rhynchophthirina (elephant-lice). Phthiraptera An order of small, wingless parasitic insects, commonly known as lice. The suborders include ANOPLURA (sucking lice); AMBLYCERA; ISCHNOCERA; and Rhynchophthirina (elephant and warthog lice). Pediculus Lice of the genus Pediculus, family Pediculidae. Pediculus humanus corporus is the human body louse and Pediculus humanus capitis is the human head louse. Vitamins Organic substances that are required in small amounts for maintenance and growth, but which cannot be manufactured by the human body. Body Composition The relative amounts of various components in the body, such as percentage of body fat. Topical ivermectin--a step toward making head lice dead lice? The effects of feeding different types of human blood to human body lice, Pediculus humanus humanus L. (Phthiraptera: Pediculidae), on feeding success, longevity and numbers of eggs laid were investig... Topical ivermectin lotion for head lice. Ivermectin in the Treatment of Head Lice The purpose of this study is to compare 2 single doses of ivermectin as tablets with 2
single applications of malathion 0.5% lotion (Days 1 and 8) in clearing head lice, in
patients who ha... The purpose of this study is to determine if 0.5% Ivermectin Cream is a safe and effective
treatment for head lice infestations. A Pharmacokinetics (PK) Study in Lice Infested Children 6 Months to 3 Years of Age The purpose of this study is to determine the bioavailability of 0.5% ivermectin cream in a
pediatric population aged 6 months to 3 years. Dose Ranging Study of Ivermectin Treatment Conditioner in Subjects With Head Lice Infestation This is a Phase 2 single center study designed to compare the safety, local tolerability,
and efficacy of 3 strengths of ivermectin treatment conditioner to placebo. The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of a 0.5% ivermectin cream
to a placebo in subjects infested with head lice when used in an "at home" environment.Affiliation
