Insulin resistance in acanthosis nigricans
Acanthosis nigricans is characterized by thickened velvety hyperpigmented plaques, most commonly the axilla, neck, and groin. Insulin and its receptors are key players in acanthosis nigricans.
Cutaneous adverse drug reactions in childhood
Cutaneous drug reactions in children may occur in various clinical patterns, ranging from mild maculopapular eruptions to severe conditions. Once the diagnosis is established, specific therapies should primarily entail the withdrawal of the causative agen
New developments in skin-directed treatments of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma
When treating the skin in patients with CTCL, we aim to minimize the extent of the cutaneous disease and reduce the potential risk of disease progression. Skin-directed therapies can reverse the immunosuppressive effects of malignant T-cells.
JAK inhibitors for pruritus
In recent years, the pathophysiology of pruritus has been discovered in some conditions, including chronic prurigo and atopic dermatitis. Of particular interest is the type 2 immune response, characterized by T-helper 2 cells and associated cytokines. This immune response seems to play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of these conditions, contributing to the persistence of pruritus over time.
