SQSTM1/p62 Orchestrates Skin Aging via USP7 Degradation

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
p62 exhibits diminished expression in aging skin and senescent cells. p62 serves to inhibit the accumulation of USP7 during senescence induction. The Tyr‐67 residue within the PB1 domain or Gln‐418 within the UBA domain of p62 forms a hydrogen bond with Ala‐993 of the Ubl5 domain of USP7.

Lichen Planus Following COVID‐19 Infection and Vaccination. Matched Case–Control Study

open access: yesAustralasian Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background New‐onset lichen planus (LP) development following COVID‐19 infection/vaccination is reported. Since case series cannot be used to study exposure–outcome associations, we designed this matched case–control study to investigate whether COVID‐19‐related events and de novo LP are associated.
