Multifactorial Perspective for Greening Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis: Rigid Polyacrylate Macroporous Resin in Combination with Green Solvents. [PDF]
A rigid, non‐swelling polyacrylate resin enables greener solid‐phase peptide synthesis by allowing various green solvents during the peptide synthesis and significantly reduced process mass intensity without compromising peptide synthesis efficiency/purity.

Silica-Assisted Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis (SiPPS). [PDF]
The use of a non‐swelling resin for solid‐phase peptide synthesis allows the reduction of solvent consumption by up to 50%. ABSTRACT Non‐swelling silica‐based resin was used for peptide synthesis. The strategy used is similar to that of solid‐phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), referred to as silica‐assisted solid‐phase peptide synthesis (SiPPS).

German Cohort Observational Study to Investigate the Short- and Long-Term Safety and Clinical Effectiveness of Afamelanotide 16 mg (SCENESSE) in Patients With Erythropoietic Protoporphyria (EPP). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Afamelanotide 16 mg (SCENESSE) is the first approved treatment for erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP). EPP is a rare autosomal recessive inherited disorder of the haem biosynthesis pathway, where patients experience severe and debilitating acute phototoxicity. It affects at least one in 140,000 of the European population.

Real-world assessment of the patient profile, clinical characteristics, treatment patterns, and outcomes associated with erythropoietic and X-linked protoporphyria. [PDF]
Abstract Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) and X‐linked protoporphyria (XLP) are rare genetic disorders. There are limited data regarding how these disorders are managed in real‐world settings. The aim of this study was to document the characteristics and treatment patterns among patients diagnosed with EPP or XLP in general real‐world settings in ...

Summary Vitiligo is a common pigment disorder of the skin resulting in destruction of melanocytes. Non‐segmental vitiligo (NSV) is an autoimmune disorder. The etiopathogenesis of segmental vitiligo (SV) remains incompletely understood. Genetic predisposition and increased vulnerability of melanocytes towards stressors lead to a melanocyte‐specific CD8+

An overview of benefits and risks of chronic melanocortin-1 receptor activation. [PDF]
Thinner line widths indicate typical physiologic signalling, thicker lines indicate increased signalling and red x's indicate suppressed signalling. Larger eumelanin and pheomelanin ovals indicate higher protein synthesis, while smaller ovals indicate lower protein synthesis.

Recognized and Emerging Features of Erythropoietic and X-Linked Protoporphyria [PDF]
Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) and X-linked protoporphyria (XLP) are inherited disorders resulting from defects in two different enzymes of the heme biosynthetic pathway, i.e., ferrochelatase (FECH) and delta-aminolevulinic acid synthase-2 (ALAS2),
