Small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors are rapidly being integrated into the management of cancer. This is the first report of sorafenib and sunitinib, both small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor receptors, triggering

The T-cell immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif domain (TIGIT) is a co-inhibitory receptor mainly expressed on T cells. Although TIGIT plays an important role in various autoimmune diseases, its role in atopic dermatitis (AD) remains unclear. In this study, we examined

BACKGROUND Atopic dermatitis (AD) and psoriasis are the 2 most common chronic inflammatory skin diseases. There is an unmet medical need to overcome limitations for transcutaneous drug development posed by the skin barrier. OBJECTIVE We aimed to identify a novel transdermal delivery peptide and to

The inflammatory form of epidermolysis bullosa acquisita is caused by autoantibodies against type VII collagen (C7), a component of the dermal-epidermal junction. We have previously shown that myeloid Src family kinases mediate skin inflammation triggered by anti-C7 antibodies. Here we identify the

Skin homeostasis is maintained by the continuous proliferation and differentiation of epidermal cells. The skin forms a strong but flexible barrier against microorganisms as well as physical and chemical insults; however, the physiological mechanisms that maintain this barrier are not fully

IgE hyperproduction frequently observed in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) may greatly contribute to the pathogenesis of AD, but its mechanisms are still unclear. NC/Nga mice raised in nonsterile circumstances spontaneously suffered from AD-like skin lesions with elevation of plasma IgE levels.

BACKGROUND Photoageing of skin is thought to be caused by protein denaturation, which can be induced by ultraviolet radiation. Previous studies have also reported that inflammation is related to protein denaturation; however, the influence of inflammation on skin ageing has not been explored in

Although vascular remodeling is a hallmark of many chronic inflammatory disorders, antivascular strategies to treat these conditions have received little attention to date. We investigated the effects of a newly identified vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor tyrosine-kinase inhibitor,

BACKGROUND Imatinib mesylate (IM) is a phenylaminopyrimidine that represents the first-line treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), Philadelphia chromosome-positive. It acts as a potent and selective inhibitor of the bcr-abl fusion protein by a competitive inhibition at the adenosine

In spite of allergen-specific immunotherapy (SIT) multiple benefits, its use is restricted in some countries owing to concerns about severe adverse reactions. To evaluate systemic adverse reactions in patients with atopic dermatitis, allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis and allergic conjunctivitis who

Recognition of self-antigen and its destruction by the immune system is the hallmark of autoimmune diseases. During the developmental stages, immune cells are introduced to the self-antigen, for which tolerance develops. The inflammatory insults that break the immune tolerance provoke immune system

Nintedanib, a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) inhibitor has been developed as therapeutics for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and non-small lung cancer. We found that the expression levels of RTK, especially VEGFR1 is increased in skin biopsies of dermatitis patients from multiple independent

Radiation recall dermatitis has been documented to occur in previously irradiated skin (within the radiation port) the administration of some chemotherapeutic agents. Clinically, it can occur weeks or months after radiation therapy, and resembles the appearance of acute radiation skin reaction. The

BACKGROUND Pazopanib is a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has recently been approved for treatment of advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC). There are no previous reports of pazopanib triggering radiation recall dermatitis (RRD). METHODS A 60-year-old male patient was
