Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2009
Vitiligo can be treated using various new and experimental therapies, such as narrow-band ultraviolet B microphototherapy (NB-UVB), narrow-band ultraviolet B excimer laser and monochromatic excimer light. The first is recommended for generalized vitiligo, whereas the latter two are indicated in patients affected by segmental and bilateral symmetrical ...

Vitiligo is a disease of pigment loss. Most investigators currently consider vitiligo to be a disorder that occurs as a result of autoimmune destruction of melanocytes, supported by identification of antimelanocyte antibodies in many patients, and the presence of comorbid autoimmune disease in patients with and family members of individuals with ...

To the Editor.— The association of vitiligo with a number of organspecific autoimmune disorders, such as pernicious anemia, 1 hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, 2 Addison disease, 3 and diabetes mellitus 4 is well known. An increased incidence of organ-specific antibodies was reported in patients with vitiligo, 5,6 but, more recently, no ...

Vitiligo represents a selective destruction of the melanocytes. It is a relatively common, probably autoimmune disorder that affects people of all backgrounds and both genders. No particular group seems to be preferentially affected. Half of vitiligo patients have an onset before the age of 18 years.

Cockade-like vitiligo and linear vitiligo
Archives of Dermatological Research, 1978The authors report 2 cases of atypical vitiligo in which they observed 1) "cockade-like" lesions resembling those of "trichrome" vitiligo (from the centre to the periphery, achromic area, hypochromic ring, normal or hyperchromic border), 2) numerous linear achromic lesions corresponding to former excoriations (Koebner's phenomenon, isomorphic ...

Vitiligo is an acquired skin disorder caused by the disappearance of pigment cells from the epidermis that gives rise to well defined white patches which are often symmetrically distributed. The lack of melanin pigment makes the lesional skin more sensitive to sunburn. Vitiligo can be cosmetically disfiguring and it is a stigmatizing condition, leading

Inflammasome activation and vitiligo/nonsegmental vitiligo progression
British Journal of Dermatology, 2014Polymorphisms of NLR (nucleotide-binding domain and leucine rich repeat containing) family, pyrin domain containing protein 1 (NLRP1) have been found in patients with vitiligo/nonsegmental vitiligo (NSV), and increased NLRP1 expression has been detected in the leading edge of lesional skin biopsies.To evaluate the presence and intensity of NLRP1 ...
