Pediatric teledermatology: Evaluation of a store-and-forward network in Ile-de-France from 2013 to 2022: Pediatric teledermatology, a store-and-forward network.

Background: Teledermatology has been widely deployed over the past decade in France, becoming an indispensable tool in daily practice. Pediatric dermatology is a subspecialty of dermatology limited to a small number of specialists. In 2013, the Argenteuil Hospital developed a structured store-and-forward (SAF) service that is particularly well-suited for the field of pediatric dermatology.

Identification of KLHDC2 as an efficient proximity-induced degrader of K-RAS, STK33, β-catenin, and FoxP3.

Targeted protein degradation (TPD), induced by enforcing target proximity to an E3 ubiquitin ligase using small molecules has become an important drug discovery approach for targeting previously undruggable disease-causing proteins. However, out of over 600 E3 ligases encoded by the human genome, just over 10 E3 ligases are currently utilized for TPD. Here, using the affinity-directed protein missile (AdPROM) system, in which an anti-GFP nanobody was linked to an E3 ligase, we screened over 30 E3 ligases for their ability to degrade 4 target proteins, K-RAS, STK33, β-catenin, and FoxP3, which were endogenously GFP-tagged.

Harnessing nanobodies for target protein degradation through the Affinity-directed PROtein Missile (AdPROM) system.

Targeted protein degradation (TPD) is a useful approach in dissecting protein function and therapeutics. Technologies such as RNA interference or gene knockout that are routinely used rely on protein turnover. However, RNA interference takes a long time to deplete target proteins and is not suitable for long-lived proteins, while a genetic knockout is irreversible, takes a long time to achieve and is not suitable for essential genes.

Tele-expertise for diagnosis of skin lesions is cost-effective in a prison setting: A retrospective cohort study of 450 patients.

Context: The prevalence of skin diseases among prisoners is higher than in the general population. Diagnosing and treating these lesions require a dermatologic advice. A tele-expertise network in dermatology for prisoners including 8 health facilities in prison and 2 hospital dermatological departments was developed to improve access to dermatologists' expertise in correctional facilities.
