Eruptive Xanthomata Manifesting in Tattoos
ABSTRACT Eruptive xanthomata represent a rare, but important pruritic dermatosis for which an accurate diagnosis can prevent life‐threatening complications. We present the case of a 29‐year‐old female with no prior medical history who presented to clinic for evaluation of a pruritic papular eruption of 2 weeks' duration.

Expression and Function of the Mannose Receptor CD206 on Epidermal Dendritic Cells in Inflammatory Skin Diseases [PDF]
The capability to take up mannosylated protein antigens is important for the biologic function of dendritic cells, as many glycoproteins derived from bacteria and fungi, e.g., Malassezia furfur, are mannosylated.

Recent advances in photopharmacology: Harnessing visible light‐activated azobenzene photoswitches
This review highlights strategies for the synthesis of visible light‐responsive azobenzenes and their applications in the emerging photopharmacology. Furthermore, we identify the current challenges and discuss future opportunities for rational design in photopharmacology that is triggered by the excitation light in “phototherapeutic window” of 650–900 ...

Modeling of reaction-diffusion transport into a core-shell geometry [PDF]
Fickian diffusion into a core-shell geometry is modeled. The interior core mimics pancreatic Langerhan islets and the exterior shell acts as inert protection. The consumption of oxygen diffusing into the cells is approximated using Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The problem is transformed to dimensionless units and solved numerically.

Nodal Langerhans cell neoplasm: detailing the diagnostic quandaries
Langerhans cells, found in the supra-basal region of the mucous membranes in the epidermis of the skin, in lymph nodes and thymus, function as antigen-presenting cells within the histiocyte system.

We presented a case of diffuse-type tenosynovial giant cell tumour (DTSGCT) of foot masquerading as Langerhans cell histiocytosis. Preliminary diagnosis by needle biopsy was difficult due to the major involvement of bones and the overshadowing effect of ...
