Melanoma is a dangerous form of skin cancer caused by melanocytes in the epidermis that is typically malignant and black in color. It is often caused by excessive ultraviolet radiation from the sun. Genetic factors like pale skin or abnormal genes inherited from parents can also increase risk. The p16 gene is one that has been discovered to potentially cause malignant melanomas. Dermatitis is inflammation of the skin that has five main types characterized by redness and itchiness. Contact dermatitis is often caused by poison ivy/oak while nummular dermatitis causes coin-shaped lesions on limbs. Atopic dermatitis is an eczema that runs in families. Seborrheic

This presentation discusses various terms related to the skin, nails, and skin conditions. It defines terms using Greek and Latin combining forms including: dermatitis (inflammation of the skin), dermatosis (abnormal skin condition), dermatologist (skin specialist), dermatology (study of skin), melanoma (black tumor), melanocyte (black cell), ichthyoderma (scaly skin), leukoderma (white skin), erythroderma (red skin), onychomalacia (softening of the nail), paronychia (nail infection), and onychectomy (nail removal). It then provides more detail on melanoma, including causes like genetics and UV radiation. Diagnosis
Eczema Atopic Dermatitis: The Causes and Treatment
Eczema (atopic dermatitis) is a common inflammatory skin disease that affects nearly 20% of children in industrialized countries. The skin of those affected appears red, flaky, dry, irritated and itchy. Eczema is caused by genetic and environmental factors like allergens, stress, weather changes, and bacterial infections. Treatment focuses on eliminating triggers through moisturizers, topical steroids and immunomodulators, oral antihistamines, and learning an effective long-term management routine to prevent relapse.
Skin disorders and their treatment
There are many different types of skin disorders that can be temporary or permanent. Temporary skin disorders include contact dermatitis and keratosis pilaris. Contact dermatitis causes itchy rashes from contact with irritants, while keratosis pilaris causes small bumps on the skin. Permanent skin disorders remain for life and include psoriasis, rosacea, and vitiligo. Skin disorders can be caused by genetic factors, illnesses, lifestyle, or environmental exposures. They are commonly treated with topical creams or prescription medications.
Skin disorders pp
Skin is made up of three main layers: the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis. The epidermis is the top layer and contains cells that produce melanin, which determines skin color. The dermis contains blood vessels, hair follicles, and sweat and oil glands. The hypodermis is a subcutaneous fat layer. Common skin disorders discussed include bacterial infections like MRSA and cellulitis, fungal infections, viral infections like chickenpox, and inflammatory conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and rosacea. Special considerations are discussed for assessing and treating skin of elderly patients and those with diabetes or other conditions.
Diagnosis of skin disease
This document outlines the process for diagnosing skin diseases. It discusses taking a thorough patient history including duration, location, and progression of symptoms. Objective symptoms like rashes and hair or nail changes should be noted. The patient's medication history, past illnesses, family history of skin conditions, and environmental exposures are important. A physical exam describes lesions in terms of morphology, distribution, and configuration. Investigations like magnifying lenses, Wood's lamp, potassium hydroxide mounts, Tzanck smears, intradermal tests, and serological tests can provide further diagnostic information. Taking a detailed history and carefully examining the skin are essential for properly diagnosing skin conditions.
Chp 3 skin terms presentation
This document discusses several skin conditions including dermatitis, melanoma, scleroderma, and onychomycosis. It defines each condition and describes the types and causes. Dermatitis can be atopic, contact allergy, or contact irritant. Melanoma is a malignant skin cancer caused by sun exposure. Scleroderma causes hardening of the skin in a limited or diffuse form. Onychomycosis is nail fungus that makes nails thick, yellow, or cloudy and comes in distal, white superficial, or proximal forms.

Ashy dermatosis
Erythema dyschromicum perstans (EDP), also known as ashy dermatosis, is a chronic skin condition first described in El Salvador characterized by gray-blue hyperpigmented patches. It is most common in Latin America and Asia and affects darker-skinned individuals more often than lighter-skinned ones. While the cause is unknown, it is considered a variant of lichen planus actinicus. Clofazimine is the most effective treatment, as it masks the dyschromias and has anti-inflammatory effects. EDP has a benign course, though it can cause cosmetic complaints.
Common adult skin conditions
Shingles is caused by the reactivation of the varicella zoster virus which causes chickenpox, presenting as a painful rash on one side of the body that is soon followed by blisters. It occurs more often in elderly people and can be prevented with vaccination. Treatment with antiviral drugs within 48 hours can limit post-herpetic neuralgia.

Pathology of Skin - Introduction
This document provides an overview of a dermatopathology course, including learning objectives, session details, sample exam questions, and study tips. It discusses key histopathological terms, classifications of skin diseases, common and rare skin conditions, and outlines the curriculum to be covered, including acute and chronic inflammatory diseases, infections, blistering diseases, and neoplastic conditions.
Vitiligo
Vitiligo is a condition characterized by loss of skin pigmentation. It results from the absence of melanocytes in the epidermis. There are several types classified by the extent and location of depigmentation. The cause is thought to be autoimmune, neural, or related to toxic melanin precursors. Treatment aims to restore pigmentation and is initially topical steroids, phototherapy, or laser treatments. For more extensive vitiligo, depigmentation of the entire skin or systemic corticosteroids may be used.
Eczema Herpeticum
Eczema herpeticum is a potentially life-threatening herpes infection that occurs when herpes simplex virus infects disrupted skin in patients with pre-existing skin conditions like eczema or atopic dermatitis. It presents with clusters of vesicles and punched-out erosions that spread and become hemorrhagic and crusted. Diagnosis involves identifying characteristic lesions along with fever and pain, and can be confirmed with tests like Tzanck smear, viral culture, or antibody testing. Aggressive treatment with IV acyclovir is required to prevent complications like herpes keratitis, which can lead to blindness. Early recognition and effective antiviral therapy are important given the potential severity of eczema her

It then discusses various skin conditions that are considered dermatosis, providing examples of common and less common forms.
Intrugumentary system
The integumentary system comprises the skin and its appendages. It has three main layers - the epidermis, dermis and hypodermis. The epidermis is the top layer and contains keratinocytes that produce keratin, protecting the body. The dermis lies beneath and contains collagen, elastin and connective tissue that provide flexibility and strength. The innermost hypodermis stores fat. Key functions of the integumentary system are to protect the body, regulate temperature and moisture, and sense touch. Diseases can include sunburn, skin cancer, infections and rashes.

Dermatitis.pptx
Dermatitis, also known as eczema, is a common skin condition characterized by redness, swelling, and intense itching. It is caused by skin irritation or sensitization and can develop from allergic, irritant, or autoimmune factors. The main types of dermatitis include contact dermatitis, which occurs when the skin comes into contact with an irritating substance, and atopic dermatitis, a chronic inflammatory skin disease. Treatment focuses on eliminating triggers, moisturizing the skin, and using topical corticosteroids or oral antihistamines to reduce inflammation and itching.
Skin pigmentation
Melasma is an acquired hyperpigmentation disorder that causes dark brown patches of skin discoloration, usually on the face. It is more common in females and often occurs during pregnancy due to increased estrogen and progesterone levels. Sun exposure triggers increased melanin production, worsening melasma. The goals of treatment are to decrease melanin production and restore an even skin tone using sunscreen, triple combination creams containing hydroquinone, retinoids, and mild corticosteroids. A dermatologist can diagnose melasma through visual examination, Wood's lamp, or skin biopsy.
Ichthyosis
Ichthyosis is a skin disorder characterized by excessive dry scales on the skin. It is caused by abnormal skin cell development or metabolism. Symptoms include severe dryness, thickened skin, and flaking which can cover large or small areas of the body. The condition is usually present at birth or appears in early childhood. It is lifelong and symptoms may worsen in dry, cold weather. Treatment focuses on moisturizing the skin and facilitating skin cell shedding through creams, lotions and medications in severe cases. The cause can be genetic mutations or acquired through other medical conditions.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
