ABSTRACT Although external genital cutaneous sarcoidosis is rare, it can closely resemble lichen sclerosus (LS) and delay diagnosis. We report a case of a 69‐year‐old woman with long‐standing vulvar symptoms and LS‐like pallor of the labia minora and clitoris. Biopsy showed non‐caseating granulomas with negative infection stains, consistent with vulvar

Stress responsive miR-23a attenuates skeletal muscle atrophy by targeting MAFbx /atrogin-1 [PDF]
Muscle atrophy occurs in many pathological states and results primarily from accelerated protein degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. We used dexamethasone to induce muscle wasting and investigated the role of a microRNA (miRNA) in the ...
