Ciechanowicz P et al.
JAK-inhibitors in dermatology: current evidence and future applications.
J Dermatolog Treat. 2019 Nov , 30, (7):648-658.

The Janus kinase (JAK) and signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway is a ubiquitous intracellular signaling network. Selective JAK-inhibitors have anti-inflammatory properties and have been approved in many countries for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (tofacitinib, baricitinib) and myelofibrosis or polycythemia vera (ruxolitinib). The aim of the publication was to summarize and critically analyze the efficacy and safety of JAK-inhibitors in skin diseases, such (...)

Vasconcelos V et al.
Patient preferences for attributes of topical anti-psoriatic medicines.
J Dermatolog Treat. 2019 Nov , 30, (7):659-663.

Patient preferences should be considered when prescribing topical treatments to drive up adherence and improve clinical outcomes. The aim of this work was to identify the most important attributes of topical medicines for psoriasis treatment in the patients' view, and explore the sociodemographic and clinical determinants of these preferences. A questionnaire for the evaluation of the relevancy given to specific attributes of topical medicines used for psoriasis treatment was developed (...)

Xu F et al.
Salidroside inhibits MAPK, NF-κB, and STAT3 pathways in psoriasis-associated oxidative stress via SIRT1 activation.
Redox Rep.. 2019 Dec , 24, (1):70-74.

To unveil the role of SIRT1 in limiting oxidative stress in psoriasis and to further discuss the therapeutic prospects of salidroside in psoriasis. Literature from 2002 to 2019 was searched with "psoriasis", "oxidative stress", "SIRT1", "salidroside" as the key words. Then, Oxidative stress in psoriasis and the role of SIRT1 were summarized and the potential role of salidroside in the disease was speculated. Oxidative stress might contribute to the pathogenesis of psoriasis. High levels (...)

Nakanishi M et al.
A case of infective endocarditis associated with atopic dermatitis perioperatively treated with dupilumab.
J Dermatolog Treat. 2019 Nov , 30, (7):674-676.

Several case reports and reviews support a relationship between atopic dermatitis (AD) and infective endocarditis (IE). Here, we present a case of severe AD suspected of causing IE. A 21-year-old man with severe AD was admitted to our hospital due to unidentified fever, syncope, and headache. He was diagnosed with IE with cerebral embolism and mitral regurgitation. Before elective cardiac surgery, he was subcutaneously administered dupilumab for 2 months to control AD. Dupilumab improved (...)

Choi EJ et al.
Effect of cinnamamides on atopic dermatitis through regulation of IL-4 in CD4 cells.
J Enzyme Inhib Med Chem. 2019 Dec , 34, (1):613-619.

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of cinnamamides on atopic dermatitis (AD) and the mechanisms underlying these effects. To this end, the actions of two cinnamamides, (E)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-N-phenylethyl acrylamide (NCT) and N-trans-coumaroyltyramine (NCPA), were determined on AD by orally administering them to mice. Oral administration of the cinnamamides ameliorated the increase in epidermal and dermal thickness as well as mast cell infiltration. Cinnamamides suppressed serum (...)

Liu L et al.
Sublingual immunotherapy of atopic dermatitis in mite-sensitized patients: a multi-centre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.
Artif Cells Nanomed Biotechnol. 2019 Dec , 47, (1):3540-3547.

Allergen-specific immunotherapy is widely used for allergic rhinitis and asthma treatment worldwide. This study explored the efficacy and safety of sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) with the extracts of ( Drops) on house dust mites (HDM)-induced atopic dermatitis (AD). 239 patients with HDM-induced AD were recruited and exposure to a multi-centre, randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled clinical trials for 36 weeks, which were randomly divided into placebo and sublingual Drops (...)
