Chemical Leukoderma Improved by Low-dose Steroid Pulse Therapy. [PDF]

Ann Dermatol, 2010
Chemical leukoderma occurs due to the toxic effect of a specific chemical preceding allergic contact dermatitis. The mechanism is either destruction or inhibition of melanocytes by the offending substance. Clinicohistopathologically, no absolute criteria can differentiate chemical leukoderma from vitiligo.

A unique system that can sensitively assess the risk of chemical leukoderma by using murine tail skin

Chemosphere, 2019
Chemical leukoderma is a patchy hypopigmentation in the skin. Phenol derivatives such as raspberry ketone have been reported to cause the development of occupationally induced leukoderma. Recently, 2% (w/w) rhododenol, a reduced form of raspberry ketone used in a skin-lightning agent, also caused the development of leukoderma in >16,000 users, about 2%

Progression from in vivo validation to in vitro screening in hazard assessment for leukoderma-inducible chemicals

Environmental Pollution
Chemicals are representative environmental factors that affect human health. Recently, external exposure to a chemical of rhododenol (RD) caused chemical leukoderma, an acquired patchy hypopigmentation, in about 20,000 Asian people. The development of a hazard assessment system for accurate determination of leukoderma-inducible chemicals is required ...
