The diagnosis of oral lichen planus (OLP) is based on clinical examination and histopathological criteria. Noninvasive diagnostics of saliva may be considered as a confirmation of OLP diagnosis and a potential alternative to an invasive method. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the
Drug induced lichen planus like eruption is an uncommon cutaneous adverse effect of several drugs. This appears symmetric eruption of erythematous or violaceous plaques resembling lichen planus on the trunk and extremities. A 50-year-old male presented with scaly, violaceous plaques and dusky brown
To clarify the pathogenesis of oral lichen planus (OLP), we investigated the roles of keratinocytes (KC) in mononuclear cell infiltration. When peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) obtained from healthy donors were cultured in the presence of culture supernatants of KC separated from the
BACKGROUND
Recently developed tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) offer first-line alternatives to patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. While these medications are generally well tolerated, cutaneous reactions occur frequently and can present a management challenge. We describe a newly recognized
Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is highly expressed in the epithelial layer of oral lichen planus (OLP), but the underlying mechanism for IL-17 overexpression remains unknown. Here, we identify renin that is induced by NF-κB pathway contributes to the increase of IL-17 in human oral keratinocytes (HOKs). We
Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory disease, which has been clinically associated with development to oral cancer. A double immunofluorescence labeling study found that 8-nitroguanine and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) accumulated in oral epithelium in OLP and oral
Clindamycin is a lincomycin-derived antibiotic useful for the treatment of anaerobic and Gram-positive aerobic bacterial infections. Cutaneous adverse reactions are usually maculopapular exanthemas, although hypersensitivity syndrome, acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis, and Stevens-Johnson
Recently, a number of medications approved for nondermatologic use have proved useful against dermatologic diseases. This article reviews the dermatologic uses and effects of deferasirox, bortezomib, dasatinib, and cyclosporine eye drops. Deferasirox--an oral iron chelator--could be an effective
