Fate mapping analysis reveals a novel murine dermal migratory Langerhans-like cell population
Dendritic cells residing in the skin represent a large family of antigen-presenting cells, ranging from long-lived Langerhans cells (LC) in the epidermis to various distinct classical dendritic cell subsets in the dermis.

Skin thickness of the anterior, anteromedial, and anterolateral thigh: a cadaveric study for split-skin graft donor sites [PDF]
Background: The depth of graft harvest and the residual dermis available for reepithelization primarily influence the healing of split-skin graft donor sites.

Elastic Fibers In Fetal Dermis
Dermal elastic tissue in fetal skin was evaluated by light microscopy using three different staining techniques. Postmortem skin was obtained from the abdominal wall of 45 fetuses ranging in age from 8 to 42 weeks. Elastic fibers were first detected in skin from fetuses of 22 weeks and, with increasing gestational age, appeared to increase in quantity ...

The histopathological spectrum of acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) and its differentiation from generalized pustular psoriasis [PDF]
Background: Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) represents a severe, acute, pustular skin reaction that is most often induced by drugs. AGEP can be difficult to differentiate from generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) both clinically and ...

Reflectance confocal microscopy for the diagnosis of skin infections and infestations [PDF]
Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is a noninvasive real-time imaging technique that has been widely used for the diagnosis of skin cancer. More recently, it has been reported as a useful tool for the diagnosis and management of several inflammatory ...

Late cutaneous schistosomiasis representing an isolated skin manifestation of Schistosoma mansoni infection [PDF]
Ectopic late cutaneous schistosomiasis is usually preceded or accompanied by visceral schistosomiasis infection. Our patient presented the very rare case of late cutaneous schistosomiasis as an isolated skin manifestation.

Preoperative Skin Conditioning: Extracellular Matrix Clearance and Skin Bed Preparation, A New Paradigm. [PDF]
This paper introduces the concept of "skin bed preparation" prior to surgical procedures. Following the theory of chronic wound bed preparation and adapting the skin model to one of chronic wound changes related to extrinsic and intrinsic factors, a ...
