Med Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has significantly improved the efficacy of cancer therapy, but their associated immune‐related adverse events (irAEs) can severely compromise treatment safety. This review systematically summarizes the core mechanisms underlying irAEs, which include multi‐organ damage resulting from T‐cell ...

Sebum Excretion and Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone in Hypoadrenalism
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1974 The sebum excretion rate (SER) was measured in 6 patients with Addison's disease and to patients with Cushing's disease treated by bilateral adrenalectomy, all of whom were taking appropriate replacement therapy. Plasma β MSH concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay in β of the patients.

The natriuretic mechanism of Gamma-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone [PDF]
Peptides, 2011 Gamma-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (Gamma-MSH) regulates sodium (Na(+)) balance and blood pressure through activation of the melanocortin receptor 3 (MC3-R). The mechanism of the natriuretic effect is proposed to involve binding of MC3-R either in the kidney to directly inhibit tubular Na(+) transport or in the brain to inhibit central neural ...

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Targeted radioligand therapy has emerged as a promising treatment option for eradicating advanced cancer forms. α‐Emitters are considered particularly promising as they can obliterate (micro)‐metastases. The α‐emitter astatine‐211 (211At) has experienced increased interest due to its favorable decay properties.

NEVIGRAV Study: A Case–Control Analysis on Changes in Melanocytic Nevi During Pregnancy
The Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pregnancy can influence modifications and appearance of melanocytic nevi, but studies report inconsistent findings, often lacking standardized methods and comparison groups. This study evaluates dermoscopic changes in nevi and the development of new melanocytic lesions in pregnant women using full‐body photography and digital dermoscopy ...
