Human Equilibrative Nucleoside Transporter-3 (hENT3) Spectrum Disorder Mutations Impair Nucleoside Transport, Protein Localization, and Stability [Membrane Biology]
Fri, 27 Aug 2010 13:40:49 +0100 | Journal of Biological Chemistry
In this study, we performed functional and biochemical characterization of these mutations in hENT3. We report severe reductions/losses of hENT3 nucleoside transport functions of hENT3 syndrome mutants. In addition to transport alterations, we provide evidence for possible loss of hENT3 functions in all H and pigmented hypertrichotic dermatosis with insulin-dependent diabetes syndromes due to either mistrafficking or altered stability of mutant hENT3 proteins.

Clinical characteristics of hydroxychloroquine retinopathy.
Fri, 06 Aug 2010 23:00:00 +0100 | The British Journal of Ophthalmology
Conclusions Hydroxychloroquine retinopathy, although rare, still exists despite current screening guidelines. The authors recommend that physicians dose hydroxychloroquine according to lean body weight and that they use risk stratification to guide their screening regimens.

Review of the Literature: Treatment of Dyspigmentation with Fractionated Resurfacing
Tue, 03 Aug 2010 23:00:00 +0100 | Dermatologic Surgery
Traditional ablative laser resurfacing is associated with adverse side effects, including prolonged erythema, edema, burning, milia, acne, crusting, and hypo- and hyperpigmentation. Fractional photothermolysis (FP) has been introduced to overcome the disadvantages of traditional ablative and nonablative resurfacing. With FP, the microscopic, pixilated pattern of wounding in the dermis results in significant skin pigmentary and textural improvements without the adverse effects of prolonged wound healing and risks of dyspigmentation associated with traditional ablative resurfacing. FP has been reported to improve hypo- and hyperpigmentation in a variety of cutaneous conditions. To review the dermatologic literature on the use of FP for treatment of dyspigmentation.

Conclusion: Clinicians and patients should be aware of these possible effects of topical bimatoprost therapy. These adverse effects may not be completely reversible after discontinuation of the medication. PMID: 20670089 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source: Cutaneous and Ocular Toxicology)

Lipodermatosclerosis
Tue, 27 Jul 2010 23:00:00 +0100 | Dermatologic Therapy
The most commonly recognized form of lipodermatosclerosis (LDS), chronic LDS presents with induration and hyperpigmentation of the skin involving the one or both of the lower legs in a characteristic "inverted champagne bottle" appearance. Associated with venous insufficiency, LDS is most common in middle aged women. In addition to chronic LDS, an acute form may also occur and is often misdiagnosed as cellulitis, inflammatory morphea, or erythema nodosum. The "acute" refers to the symptoms present that are exquisite pain. Treatment of LDS is based on the clinical presentation with compression therapy as the mainstay of treatment if tolerated. For acute LDS, patients often cannot tolerate compression therapy due to pain. We advise the use of fibrinolytic therapy, if available, until the pat...
