Skin Pigmentation Types, Causes and Treatment—A Review

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
Human skin pigmentation and melanin synthesis are incredibly variable, and are impacted by genetics, UV exposure, and some drugs. Patients’ physical appearance, psychological health, and social functioning are all impacted by a sizable number of skin ...

The association between neural crest‐derived glia and melanocyte lineages throughout development and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient cell population that emerges from the dorsal neural tube during neurulation and migrates extensively throughout the embryo. Among their diverse derivatives, glial cells (such as Schwann and satellite ganglionic cells) and melanocytes represent two major lineages. In vitro studies suggested they share a common

The role of Rho GTPases in facial morphogenesis

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
The role of small GTPases, RHOA, RAC1, and CDC42 and pathway mediators is reviewed in the context of embryonic facial development. Lip fusion requires cytoskeletal remodeling during morphogenesis of the facial processes and during lip fusion. Fnm, frontonasal mass; lnp, lateral nasal process; mnp, medial nasal process; mxp, maxillary process; np, nasal

Anomalous colour in Neotropical mammals: a review with new records for Didelphis sp. (Didelphidae, Didelphimorphia) and Arctocephalus australis (Otariidae, Carnivora)

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
Anomalous colourations occur in many tropical vertebrates. However, they are considered rare in wild populations, with very few records for the majority of animal taxa. We report two new cases of anomalous colouration in mammals.

Immunotherapy‐Related Cutaneous Toxicities in Melanoma: A Dermoscopic Perspective

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Dermoscopy serves as a valuable tool in the everyday dermatological and oncological practice for melanoma patients, allowing for the prompt identification of immune‐related cutaneous toxicities and guiding clinicians toward appropriate therapeutic decisions.

Fractional CO2 Laser Combined With Topical Corticosteroids for Vulvar Lichen Simplex Chronicus: An Observational Study From an 8‐Year Single‐Center Experience

open access: yesLasers in Surgery and Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Vulvar lichen simplex chronicus (VLSC) is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis that remains difficult to manage long term. Fractional CO2 laser (FxCO2) combined with topical corticosteroids (TCs) has emerged as a potential therapeutic strategy; however, high‐quality long‐term evidence remains limited.

Comparative Evaluation of R134a and HFO‐1234ze Cryogen Spray Cooling Using a Mouse Model With Controllable Epidermal Pigmentation

open access: yesLasers in Surgery and Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Cryogen spray cooling (CSC) is critical for protecting the epidermis during laser dermatologic procedures. The widely used cryogen, R134a, has a high global warming potential (GWP), motivating interest in environmentally favorable alternatives such as HFO‐1234ze.

Exome Sequencing in Prenatally Diagnosed Isolated Neural Tube Defects: A Subtype‐Specific Analysis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore potential genetic contributors across different subtypes of isolated neural tube defects (NTDs) ‐ acrania–exencephaly–anencephaly sequence (AEAS), spinal dysraphism, and encephalocele ‐ using exome sequencing (ES) in a prenatal cohort, with the goal of gaining insight into the molecular diversity underlying these distinct ...

Dermoscopy of disorders of hypopigmentation

open access: yesPigment International, 2022
Dermoscopy has traditionally been used to diagnose neoplasms and, more recently, to evaluate inflammatory conditions. Recent observational studies have suggested a role for dermoscopy in identifying and differentiating various hypopigmentary disorders ...
