Alitretinoin improves eczema treatment
The Endogenous Dual Retinoid Receptor Agonist Alitretinoin Exhibits Immunoregulatory Functions on Antigen-Presenting Cells.
Most Relevant Research
We explored the effects of alitretinoin, a form of vitamin A, on chronic hand eczema (CHE). This powerful drug is known to target specific receptors in the skin, offering insights into its method of action. Through our detailed study, we examined skin samples from patients who responded well to alitretinoin treatment.

Our analysis revealed a total of 231 genes that were markedly regulated. We found that alitretinoin primarily impacts keratinocytes, the skin's primary cells, by addressing inflammation and enhancing skin barrier function. This treatment improved the expression of certain protective proteins while fostering the production of hyaluronic acid, a substance that helps hydrate and soothe the skin.

Furthermore, we observed that alitretinoin also affects immune cells, particularly dendritic cells, which play a vital role in our immune response. These cells, when treated with alitretinoin, displayed unique alterations in their appearance and function. They had lower levels of specific markers that typically spur an immune response and stimulated the production of IL-10, a cytokine that promotes immune tolerance. Most impressively, these treated cells were less effective at activating T cells, which are crucial for initiating inflammation.

Our findings indicate that alitretinoin not only treats the visible symptoms of eczema but also helps regulate the immune response, providing a dual approach in the management of chronic hand eczema. Ultimately, these insights show that vitamin A treatment holds significant promise for improving outcomes in eczema patients.

Eczema improvement
Most Useful Review
I have eczema and seborrheic dermatitis, and I read that vitamin A might help. After just a few days of taking it, my eczema is 90% cleared up, and it’s no longer itchy. My scalp feels less irritated, and my eyes are much more comfortable. My rosacea on my cheeks has calmed down significantly, and the keratosis bumps I've had since childhood are gone! My skin feels much better and less dry. It has made a tremendous difference in under a week, and the pill is tiny and easy to swallow.

Vitamin A toxicity's impact on headaches
A Rare Case Report of Benign Intracranial Hypertension Caused by Hypervitaminosis A.
Most Relevant Research
We examined a rare case involving a 13-year-old girl who experienced symptoms of headache and visual disturbances due to benign intracranial hypertension (BIH) related to vitamin A toxicity. This condition was characterized by elevated pressure inside her skull, which led to her experiencing severe headaches, photophobia, and vomiting.

After conducting various tests, including magnetic resonance imaging and a lumbar puncture, we confirmed the diagnosis of BIH. Treatment was initiated with acetazolamide, a medication commonly used to reduce intracranial pressure. Although the study primarily focuses on the condition resulting from vitamin A excess, the use of acetazolamide makes it challenging to isolate the effect of vitamin A on headache relief specifically.

What's particularly noteworthy in this case is the significant elevation of serum vitamin A levels, which aligned with her symptoms. Following treatment, this patient showed a remarkable clinical improvement, including a reduction in papilledema during regular eye check-ups. Within just two weeks after starting treatment, she was discharged symptom-free, highlighting how important it is to consider vitamin A levels in children presenting with similar symptoms.

This case serves as a reminder for clinicians regarding the potential consequences of vitamin A toxicity, especially when evaluating children with headaches correlated to papilledema.

Vitamin A's effectiveness in acne
The role of vitamins and nutrients in rosacea.
Most Relevant Research
We explored how vitamin A can influence acne treatment, focusing on the effectiveness of its derivatives. According to the findings, oral isotretinoin, a form of vitamin A, showed remarkable efficacy. Patients experienced a significant reduction in lesions—up to 90%—with complete remission in one-quarter of those involved in the study.

Moreover, more than half of the participants reported substantial improvement after treatment. This strong performance suggests that vitamin A plays a key role in managing acne symptoms effectively.

Overall, the evidence we examined indicates that incorporating vitamin A, particularly through isotretinoin, can lead to significant improvements for individuals struggling with acne.

Vitamin A and allergy management
Retinoic Acid (RA): A Critical Immunoregulatory Molecule in Asthma and Allergies.
Most Relevant Research
Our exploration into the effects of vitamin A, particularly its active form known as retinoic acid, revealed some interesting insights regarding allergies. Vitamin A plays a key role in our immune system by helping to regulate immune responses, which is crucial for managing allergic reactions.

Research indicates that retinoic acid can promote the development of regulatory T cells, which are essential for maintaining balance in our immune system. These T cells help to suppress excessive immune responses that can lead to allergies. Additionally, they assist in managing inflammatory responses, which is particularly important for conditions like asthma and allergic reactions.

Notably, studies have shown that levels of retinoic acid are often lower in individuals suffering from asthma and allergies. Moreover, introducing retinoic acid as a treatment has been found to alleviate symptoms associated with allergies and reduce airway inflammation. This suggests that boosting retinoic acid levels in the body might be a promising therapeutic approach for those dealing with allergic conditions.

Overall, we conclude that vitamin A—through its derivative retinoic acid—holds significant potential for improving allergy management by enhancing immune regulation.

Vitamin A reduces pregnancy nausea
Vitamin A or beta-carotene supplementation reduces symptoms of illness in pregnant and lactating Nepali women.
Most Relevant Research
We conducted a double-masked, placebo-controlled trial involving 15,832 Nepali women to explore how vitamin A and beta-carotene supplementation affects pregnancy-related nausea and overall illness symptoms. Our observations showed that while there was no noticeable impact during the early stages of pregnancy, vitamin A supplementation made a significant difference in late pregnancy.

Specifically, we found that women who received vitamin A experienced a reduction in nausea. Additionally, symptoms such as faintness and night blindness were also less prevalent in those women. Beta-carotene supplementation did not yield the same benefits for nausea, highlighting the unique role of vitamin A in managing these symptoms.

Moreover, supplementation with vitamin A contributed to a shorter labor duration, which is promising for expectant mothers. It also helped reduce the postpartum risks of conditions like night blindness and loose stools. Overall, our findings indicate that ensuring adequate vitamin A intake can be important for improving reproductive health in women, particularly in areas with limited healthcare access.
