Background: Both oxidative stress and autoimmune responses play crucial roles in the development of vitiligo. Under oxidative stress, the apoptotic melanocytes expose self-antigens and release high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), triggering autoimmune activation and recruiting CD8 T cells. This process further leads to the destruction of melanocytes, resulting in the lack of melanin granules.

Mechanisms related to tumor evasion from NK cell-mediated immune surveillance remain enigmatic. Dickkopf-1 (DKK1) is a Wnt/β-catenin inhibitor, whose levels correlate with breast cancer progression. We find DKK1 to be expressed by tumor cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in patient samples and orthotopic breast tumors, and in bone.

ADHD-related sleep problems can be traced to a delayed circadian rhythm and a later onset of melatonin production.

Wound care patients often have a variety of chronic medical conditions that result in poor outcomes, such as delayed healing and nontraumatic limb loss. Many of these suboptimal patient outcomes result from healthcare disparities linked to social determinants of health (SDOH). Race and ethnicity influence SDOH by impacting patients' access to consistent quality healthcare.
