Hairy Tongue Associated With The Use Of Baricitinib Therapy For Ophiasis Pattern Alopecia Areata, Anthony Gaspari
Hairy Tongue Associated With The Use Of Baricitinib Therapy For Ophiasis Pattern Alopecia Areata, Anthony Gaspari
Department of Dermatology and Cutaneous Biology Faculty Papers
We report a case of hairy tongue that developed in a young Caucasian
woman during systemic baricitinib therapy for severe alopecia areata.
Because she experienced good clinical regrowth of her hair during
treatment, she did not want to interrupt therapy. We recommended she
use a toothbrush to debride her tongue on a daily basis, which was
successful. Hairy tongue most commonly occurs in elderly, debilitated
males with poor oral hygiene. It is thought to occur because of overgrowth
of chromogenic bacteria and/or yeast on the tongue. This unusual side
effect during baricitinib therapy suggests that immune suppression may
play a …

A Dog Lover's Dilemma: Airborne Allergic Contact Dermatitis To Tylosin., Aditi Kale, Anthony A Gaspari
A Dog Lover's Dilemma: Airborne Allergic Contact Dermatitis To Tylosin., Aditi Kale, Anthony A Gaspari
Department of Dermatology and Cutaneous Biology Faculty Papers
Airborne allergic contact dermatitis (AACD) can be caused by airborne chemicals settling on exposed body parts. Repeated exposure to an allergen can induce AACD in the areas of exposed skin (typically, the face, hands, and forearms).
Case Report: A 67-year-old White woman presented in October 2019 with a 4-month history of severe pruritic facial and hand dermatitis, which began in June or July 2019.
Consensus Reclassification Of Inherited Epidermolysis Bullosa And Other Disorders With Skin Fragility., C Has, J W Bauer, C Bodemer, M C Bolling, L Bruckner-Tuderman, A Diem, J-D Fine, A Heagerty, A Hovnanian, M P Marinkovich, A E Martinez, J A Mcgrath, C Moss, D F Murrell, F Palisson, A Schwieger-Briel, E Sprecher, K Tamai, J Uitto, D T Woodley, G Zambruno, J E Mellerio

BACKGROUND: Several new genes and clinical subtypes have been identified since the publication in 2014 of the report of the last International Consensus Meeting on Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB).
OBJECTIVES: We sought to reclassify disorders with skin fragility, with a focus on EB, based on new clinical and molecular data.
METHODS: This was a consensus expert review.
RESULTS: In this latest consensus report, we introduce the concept of genetic disorders with skin fragility, of which classical EB represents the prototype. Other disorders with skin fragility, where blisters are a minor part of the clinical picture or are not seen because skin …
Dermatologists In The Wild West, 1870-1900: The Early Pioneers From The Mississippi River To The Pacific Coast., Leonard J Hoenig, Lawrence Charles Parish
Dermatologists In The Wild West, 1870-1900: The Early Pioneers From The Mississippi River To The Pacific Coast., Leonard J Hoenig, Lawrence Charles Parish
Department of Dermatology and Cutaneous Biology Faculty Papers
During the Wild West era of American history (approximately 1870-1900), at least 53 dermatologists settled between the Mississippi River and the Pacific Coast. In 1870, two dermatologists began their practice in the city of St Louis, Missouri (William Augustus Hardaway and Solomon Claiborne Martin, Sr) and one dermatologist started his practice in San Francisco, California (George J. Bucknall). By 1900, 50 more dermatologists had settled in 19 cities located in the American West (Tables 1,2). There, they established practices, initiated academic programs, and pioneered dermatology as a medical specialty in the western United States. This contribution provides brief biographic profiles …
A Novel Mutation In St14 At A Functionally Significant Amino Acid Residue Expands The Spectrum Of Ichthyosis-Hypotrichosis Syndrome., Leila Youssefian, Andrew Touati, Amir Hossein Saeidian, Omid Zargari, Sirous Zeinali, Hassan Vahidnezhad, Jouni Uitto

Department of Dermatology and Cutaneous Biology Faculty Papers
BACKGROUND: Mutations in the ST14 gene, encoding the serine protease matriptase, have been associated with ichthyosis-hypotrichosis syndrome (IHS), a Mendelian disorder with skin and hair manifestations which include, in addition to ichthyosis and hypotrichosis, hypohidrosis and follicular atrophoderma. However, the understanding of the specific consequences of mutations in ST14 on the development of this syndrome is incomplete.
RESULTS: Using a targeted next-generation sequencing array of 38 ichthyosis-associated genes on a large cohort of 180 ichthyosis patients from a primarily consanguineous background, a previously unreported homozygous p.Asp482Asn mutation in ST14 was identified in a patient with IHS. This mutation affects an …

INTRODUCTION: Congenital muscular dystrophies (CMD) are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of neuromuscular disorders characterized by muscle weakness within the first two years of life. Collagen VI-related muscle disorders have recently emerged as one of the most common types of CMD. COL6 CMD is caused by deficiency and/or dysfunction of extracellular matrix (ECM) protein collagen VI. Currently, there is no specific treatment for this disabling and life-threatening disease. The primary cellular targets for collagen VI CMD therapy are fibroblasts in muscle, tendon and skin, as opposed to muscle cells for other types of muscular dystrophies. However, recent advances in …

Abca12-Mediated Lipid Transport And Snap29-Dependent Trafficking Of Lamellar Granules Are Crucial For Epidermal Morphogenesis In A Zebrafish Model Of Ichthyosis., Qiaoli Li, Michael Frank, Masashi Akiyama, Shiu-Ying Ho, Hiroshi Shimizu, Christine Thisse, Bernard Thisse, Eli Sprecher, Jouni Uitto

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) can serve as a model system to study heritable skin diseases. The skin is rapidly developed during the first 5-6 days of embryonic growth, accompanied by expression of skin-specific genes. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) of wild-type zebrafish at day 5 reveals a two-cell-layer epidermis separated from the underlying collagenous stroma by a basement membrane with fully developed hemidesmosomes. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) reveals an ordered surface contour of keratinocytes with discrete microridges. To gain insight into epidermal morphogenesis, we have employed morpholino-mediated knockdown of the abca12 and snap29 genes, which are crucial for secretion of lipids and …
