Quantification of Palmar and Digital Epidermal Thickness and Sweat Duct Density

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Palmar digital skin, with its high density of epidermal sweat glands and unique stratum corneum, derives its autonomic innervation from peripheral nerves. Understanding the changes to these structures could serve as objective proxy markers following peripheral nerve injury and interventions to promote regeneration.

Occupational Exposure to Factory‐Derived Particulate Matter 2.5 Induces Cutaneous Toxicity in Workers and HaCaT Keratinocytes Through Oxidative Stress and Inflammation

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the toxicological effects of occupational exposure to factory‐derived particulate matter (PM2.5) on human skin, emphasizing its role as a potential target organ of environmental toxicants. An epidemiological survey comparing factory and nonfactory workers was conducted by assessing their skin elasticity and color ...

The Rare Presentation of Deep Dermatophytosis‐Trichophyton in an Immunosuppressed Patient

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dermatophytes typically cause superficial skin infections characterized by an active border. However, they can present atypically invading deeper in immunocompromised patients. We present a case of a 72‐year‐old woman with bullous pemphigoid who had received oral prednisolone for 3 months and developed umbilicated papules.

Applicability of Novel Laser Scanning Microscopy Techniques in Demonstrating Characteristic Features of Porokeratosis: In Vivo and Ex Vivo Investigation

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Porokeratoses represent a group of keratinization disorders characterized histopathologically by the presence of a cornoid lamella. The recognition of porokeratosis as a genodermatosis, along with its association with increased risk of skin cancer, underscores the importance of accurate and timely diagnosis.

Desquamation in the Stratum Corneum

Acta Dermato-Venereologica, 2000
To maintain a constant thickness of the stratum corneum the desquamation rate and the de novo production of corneocytes is delicately balanced. Using a plantar stratum corneum model we have obtained evidence that proteolysis is a central event in the desquamation process.
