Theoretical Analysis of Large‐Spot Picosecond Laser Treatment for Pigmented Lesions in Asian Skin
ABSTRACT Objectives To theoretically evaluate the efficacy and safety of large‐spot (i.e., > 4 mm) picosecond laser treatment for pigmented lesions in Asian skin using a melanosome disruption threshold fluence (MDTF) model. Materials and Methods The MDTF model was applied to calculate the required fluence for melanosome disruption with 532, 730, 755 ...

Varied presentation of congenital dermal melanocytosis with speckled lentigines
Nevus of Ota and nevus of Ito are rare dermal melanocytosis. These occur due to the failure of migration of melanocytes from the neural crest to the epidermis. They are more common in Asian females and usually present at birth.

G Protein‐Coupled Receptor Signaling: Implications and Therapeutic Development Advances in Cancers
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the dynamic protein family in the human genome. GPCR dysregulation aids in the advancement of cancer through increased migration, survival, and proliferation. Novel treatments that target GPCR signaling include orthosteric ligands, biased receptor mutants, PROTACs, and antibody–drug conjugates.

Dermoscopy Assisting Diagnosis of Dermal Melanocytosis Limited to the Hand
ABSTRACT Acquired dermal melanocytosis (ADM) is a skin disorder characterized by the presence of melanocytes in the dermis. The face is the most common site of ADM. ADM can be difficult to diagnose when it occurs in an unusual clinical setting.

A Nevus of OTA with Intraoral Involvement: A Rare Case Report [PDF]
Nevus of Ota, which originally was described by Ota and Tanino in 1939. It is characterized as congenital or acquired hamartoma of dermal melanocytes, presents clinically as a blue or gray patch on the face within the distribution of the ophthalmic and ...

Bilateral nevus of Ota associated with Turner syndrome
In 1939, Ota described the first case of a benign dermal melanocytosis known as nevus of Ota. This condition involves the skin and mucosa innervated by the ophthalmic, maxillary and, rarely, the mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve. It is frequent

Comparison of the Efficacy of 1064‐ and 730‐nm Picosecond Lasers for Acquired Dermal Melanocytosis
ABSTRACT Background Acquired dermal melanocytosis (ADM) is a pigmentary lesion caused by melanocytes in the dermis. These conditions are refractory, and a consensus on treatment remains elusive. Aims To compare the efficacy of 730‐ and 1064‐nm picosecond lasers in the treatment of ADM and to supplement the comparison with a literature review. Patients:
