Oral N-acetylcysteine (NAC) has shown efficacy for debilitating habit-driven and neuropsychiatric disorders in small, mostly adult studies. We retrospectively evaluated the therapeutic use and safety of oral NAC in 93 children from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. This study supports the use of oral NAC for habit-driven skin, hair, and nail abnormalities in pediatric patients.

Background: Skin aging is inevitable. Wrinkles, skin texture abnormalities, senile hyperpigmentation, loss of skin tone, dryness, atrophy, and telangiectasias represent some of the hallmarks of aged skin. Skin rejuvenation can be addressed by topical therapies, such as topical retinoids and antioxidants or physical modalities with energy-based devices, all providing acceptable outcomes.

Breslow thickness (BT), a parameter measuring the depth of invasion of abnormally proliferating melanocytes, is a key indicator of melanoma severity and prognosis. However, the mechanisms underlying the increase in BT remain elusive. Utilizing data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) human skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM), we identified a set of BT-related molecules and analyzed their expression and genomic heterogeneity across pan-cancerous and normal tissues.
