TEN is a rare and critical disease mostly caused by drugs. It is mediated by activated CD8+ T cells that cause keratinocyte apoptosis with the assistance of cytokines/chemokines. We herein report a pediatric case of TEN after allogeneic HSCT with precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (pre-B-ALL) in second complete remission. Although we did not evaluate the T-cell subpopulation in blood or skin lesion of the patient, an imbalanced immune reconstitution after HSCT might additively contribute to the development of TEN.

Radiotherapy is a rare cause of Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/ toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), especially in the pediatric age group. Most of the reported cases were concomitantly started on anti-epileptic drugs. Herein, we present a case of radiotherapy induced SJS/TEN in an adolescent girl in the absence of anti-epileptic drug use.

Crisis intervention is crucial in managing acute medical crises to improve outcomes. Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN), a severe skin reaction often triggered by drug exposure, poses challenges, especially in chemotherapy patients. Evidence on nursing care for TEN patients with Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) retention during chemotherapy is limited.

In cells, the term "cellular aging" represents a collection of biological changes that can precede the proliferative senescence states. Cells more resistant to proliferative senescence, such as the ones found in the basal layer of the epidermis, may also exhibit these aging patterns. Therefore, cellular aging events could be induced by endogenous signals named here as cellular aging triggers (CATs) components.

High intake of dietary linoleic acid may increase the incidence of many diseases. The aim of this research is to examine the impact of linoleic acid on the damage caused by calcium oxalate kidney stones on renal tubular epithelial cells. Calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) crystals were prepared and used to treat HK-2 cells, which were further treated with different concentrations of linoleic acid in vitro.

This Review discusses recent advancements in the development of fourth-generation "Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs)" targeting resistance mutations, with an emphasis on the C797S mutation in "Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)". While first, second, and third-generation EGFR-TKIs have made significant progress in overcoming EGFR kinase resistance, the emergence of the EGFR-C797S mutation poses a substantial challenge, particularly in the context of resistance to Osimertinib. Fourth-generation TKIs are classified into ATP-competitive, allosteric, and ortho-allosteric inhibitors, with the goal of enhancing specificity for mutant EGFR while minimizing off-target effects on wild-type EGFR to reduce toxicity.
