Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome: clinical and genetic studies of 10 French familiesEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions We report here the largest series to date of French patients with BHDS. We noted a high prevalence of thyroid nodules and renal cysts. However, the lack of a control group does not allow assessment of whether or not such association with BHDS is fortuitous. (Source: British Journal of Dermatology)

BRAF V600E mutation and the tumour suppressor IGFBP7 in atypical genital naeviEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions The prevalence of BRAF V600E in AGN suggests that ultraviolet exposure is not essential for generating the mutation. The BRAF V600E mutational status appears to be of limited diagnostic utility in distinguishing genital naevi that exhibit atypia from those that do not. Similar to oncogenic BRAF-positive common naevi without atypia, enhanced expression of the tumour suppressor IGFBP7 in oncogenic BRAF-positive AGN supports that they are biologically inert.

Investigation of papulopustular eruptions caused by cetuximab treatment shows altered differentiation markers and increases in inflammatory cytokinesEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions The early inflammatory events (IL-1[alpha] and TNF-[alpha] expression) seen, and the lack of pEGFR in perilesional follicles, indicate that inflammatory events induced by EGFR inhibition may initiate papulopustular eruptions along with the altered differentiations. The decrease of filaggrin may contribute to the pathogenesis of the xerosis caused by cetuximab. (Source: British Journal of Dermatology)

Methotrexate: a useful steroid-sparing agent in recalcitrant chronic urticariaEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions Methotrexate may be a useful treatment for steroid-dependent chronic urticaria. Functional autoantibodies do not correlate with response. The beneficial effects of methotrexate may be anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive. It may therefore benefit chronic urticaria independently of the pathogenic mechanism, whether autoimmune or not.

Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions Signature polymorphisms were observed to be useful for the differentiation of these strains and epidemiological data showed a host specificity among zoophilic strains of T. interdigitale/Arthroderma vanbreuseghemii compared with A. benhamiae as well as characteristic clinical pictures in humans when caused by zoophilic or anthropophilic strains. The delineation is relevant because it helps in determining the correct treatment and provides clues regarding the source of the infection. (Source: British Journal of Dermatology)

Conclusions SCG is effective in reducing pruritus but has no effect on weals, supporting the proposition that, in the skin, SCG inhibits sensory C-fibre nerve activation rather than preventing mast cell degranulation. We suggest that topical SCG treatment, delivered in an appropriate vehicle, may be beneficial for symptomatic relief of pruritus in patients with cutaneous mastocytosis and other pruritic dermatoses.

Unique skin changes in a case of Albright hereditary osteodystrophy caused by a rare GNAS1 mutationEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
We describe a family with AHO and hormone resistance (PHP type Ia) resulting from a rare mutation in GNAS1. The proband presented with small subcutaneous calcifications in the helix of the right ear and concentrated in a sharply demarcated zone of subcutaneous and dermal hypoplasia. This abnormality has so far not been described in patients with AHO. We speculate on the mechanism of dermal hypoplasia and resistance to PTH and suggest that subcutanous or dermal hypoplasia might be another feature which can be present in patients with AHO.

Intradermal injections of polyarginine-containing immunogenic antigens preferentially elicit Tc1 and Th1 activation and antitumour immunityEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions i.d. injections of rR9-containing immunogenic Ag without adjuvants simultaneously induce dual immunological effects: the induction of Tc1- and Th1-dominant immune responses, and the induction of inflammatory and CTL-mediated immune responses at the injection area by expressing Ag epitopes on MHC class I molecules as targets. This simple vaccination approach with R9-PTD-containing fusion proteins might be useful as prophylactic immunotherapy for cancer or infectious diseases. (Source: British Journal of Dermatology)

Conclusions The modified CDASI is perfectly correlated with the original CDASI. It has equally good concurrent validity with the PGM-overall skin and PGM-activity scales. The CDASI subscores have equally good concurrent validity with the PGM-activity and PGM-damage scales. We suggest that PGMs of skin disease activity and damage should be assessed separately for greater specificity. The modified CDASI is a refined and equally as useful outcome measure.

Repeated low-dose skin exposure is an effective sensitizing stimulus, a factor to be taken into account in predicting sensitization riskEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions The same degree of sensitization was induced by three exposures to DNCB 10 [mu]g cm[minus]2 as by one exposure to 60 [mu]g cm[minus]2 of DNCB. Thus repeated exposure to low doses of contact sensitizers may increase the sensitizing potency. This must be taken into account in future risk assessments. (Source: British Journal of Dermatology)

Conclusion Successive tape stripping, a situation analogous to the normal use of a pouching system, caused a higher degree of barrier damage more rapidly in patients with PSP, indicating an impaired mechanical quality of the barrier. The SLS exposure test suggested a generally increased susceptibility to irritant dermatitis as assessed by TEWL. Our findings suggest tape stripping and SLS testing may have a role as predictive tests to identify patients at risk of PSP. (Source: British Journal of Dermatology)

The present review gives an overview of the enormous variety of skin scores used for assessing severity in patients suffering from hand eczema. In order to evaluate the validity and practical relevance of different scoring systems according to the criteria of evidence-based medicine, in May 2009 we performed a systematic search of the literature using PubMed and the Cochrane Library. A total of 69 articles reporting on 45 different methods for quantifying hand eczema were identified. The panel of methods varied from pure subjective categories to more or less quantitative scoring systems. Furthermore, by focusing on skin sc...
