Eruptive basal cell carcinoma and lenalidomide: rising awareness among dermatologists.

Dermatol Reports

Dermatology Unit, Department of Medicine and Surgery, University of Parma, Parma, Italy.

Published: March 2023

Because of its higher level of safety compared to its parent medicine, thalidomide, lenalidomide (L) is chosen for the treatment of multiple myeloma. We report a patient who, within a month of using L, developed more than 10 basal cell carcinomas.

Unraveling the controversy: exploring the link between sex hormones and skin cancers through a meta-analysis and systematic review.

Arch Dermatol Res

January 2025

Department of Plastic and Burn Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, No. 37, Guoxue Alley, Wuhou District, Chengdu, 610041, Sichuan Province, P. R. China.

Skin cancers continue to present unresolved challenges, particularly regarding the association with sex hormones, which remains a topic of controversy. A systematic review is currently warranted to address these issues. To analyze if sex hormones result in a higher incidence of skin cancers (cutaneous melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma).

Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an immunomodulatory molecule that may play an immunosuppressive role in nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC), specifically basal cell carcinoma (BCC). We analyzed the role of IL10 promoter variants in genetic determinants of BCC susceptibility and their association with IL10 mRNA and IL-10 serum levels. Three promoter variants (- 1082 A > G, - 819 T > C, and - 592 A > C) were examined in 250 BCC patients and 250 reference group (RG) individuals.

With freshwater resources becoming scarce worldwide, mariculture is a promising avenue to sustain aquaculture development, especially by incorporating brackish and saline groundwater (GW) use into fish farming. A 75-day rearing trial was conducted to evaluate fish growth, immune response, overall health, and water quality of Chelon ramada cultured in brackish GW and fed on a basal diet (BD) augmented with rosemary oil (RO) or RO + zymogen forte™ (ZF) as an anti-flatulent. Five treatments were administrated in triplicate: T1: fish-fed BD without additives (control group); T2: fish-fed BD + 0.

It has been debated whether endometriosis (EMS) adversely affects oocyte quality, potentially leading to a higher incidence of genetically unbalanced embryos or other egg factors that affect the developmental potential. In this study, we explored the effects of endometriosis on risk of chromosomally aberrant in miscarried products of conception (POC) after assisted reproductive treatment (ART), including fresh and frozen cycles. Miscarried POCs were collected from EMS patients (N = 102) and non-EMS patients (N = 441).

NME7 maintains primary cilium assembly, ciliary microtubule stability, and Hedgehog signaling.

NME7 (nucleoside diphosphate kinase 7), a lesser studied member of the non-metastatic expressed (NME) family, has been reported as a potential subunit of the γ-tubulin ring complex (γTuRC). However, its role in the cilium assembly and function remains unclear. Our research demonstrated that NME7 is located at the centrosome, including at the spindle poles during metaphase and at the basal bodies during cilium assembly.
