Update on pathobiology in Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis

open access: yesDermatologica Sinica, 2013
Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrosis (TEN) are rare but life-threatening severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs), which are mainly induced by a variety of drugs. Once considered to be unpredictable, significant progress has been

Drug hypersensitivity caused by alteration of the MHC-presented self-peptide repertoire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Idiosyncratic adverse drug reactions are unpredictable, dose independent and potentially life threatening; this makes them a major factor contributing to the cost and uncertainty of drug development. Clinical data suggest that many such reactions involve
