The Sinister Side of 5 Alpha Reductase Inhibitor Use: Drug-Induced Melasma (CDA 2025) - "Finasteride and dutasteride, 5-alpha reductase inhibitors (5-ARIs), are off-label treatments for androgen-related conditions in women, and on-label treatments for androgenetic alopecia and benign prostatic hypertrophy in men...Case 1 : A 53-year-old healthy woman was prescribed oral finasteride (2.5 mg daily, later increased to 5 mg) and topical minoxidil compound for frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA)...She was prescribed acitretin as a non-immunosuppressive alternative for her FFA. Case 2 : A 66-year-old male with a history of prostate pathology presented with one year history of melasma on his forehead and temples, treated unsuccessfully with hydroquinone, tretinoin, and fluocinonide. Despite trials of cysteamine, tretinoin, and oral tranexamic acid, his melasma persisted... These cases highlight the potential for 5-ARIs to induce melasma in both men and women taking finasteride without prior melasma. Dermatologists should consider this rare side effect when assessing..."

A case of folliculocentric extragenital lichen sclerosus: a rare variant and clinical presentation (AAD 2025) - "Two months later, she presented for a follow-up appointment, at which time she reported improvement of the lesions on the arms with fluocinonide 0.05% ointment and denied any new lesions...This case illustrates an unusual clinical presentation of this variant of LS&A, notably with the lack of hypopigmented lesions, and is the first case, to our knowledge, of this variant occurring simultaneously with genital LS&A. It further highlights the importance of considering folliculocentric extragenital LS&A in the differential diagnosis of follicular keratotic lesions on the extremities, which may aid in prompt diagnosis and management of LS&A."

Dupilumab treatment for effective control of a Netherton's syndrome flare (AAD 2025) - "A 30-year-old female with a history of poorly controlled Netherton's syndrome presented with a severe flare for nearly three weeks following a twelve-day prednisone taper. On exam, the patient was found to be erythrodermic, with numerous, broad, confluent pink plaques accentuated by peripheral double-edged scale At the time of presentation, the patient was using fluocinonide 0.05% cream and emollients without relief and had a Peak Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (PP-NRS) of 8. Given the recent history of steroid rebound and severity of disease, a trial of dupilumab, 600mg at the time of the visit, and 300mg administered every 14 days thereafter was initiated in combination with triamcinolone 0.01% cream twice daily...This case highlights the utility of dupilumab in providing rapid improvement in a patient actively experiencing a severe flare. Further studies defining the use of dupilumab in promptly resolving treatment-refractory Netherton's syndrome flares are..."

Treatment of Concomitant Alopecia Areata and Crohn's Disease in a Young Child With Tofacitinib: Case Report (AIBD 2024) - "Her alopecia did not respond to topical treatments with fluocinonide for the scalp, followed by Clobetasol...The development of AA following infliximab treatment and the timeline of the patient's symptom resolution suggests that the patient's alopecia likely developed secondary to her infliximab infusions. AA is an autoimmune disease mediates by cytotoxic T cell driven inflammation targeting hair follicles. Pediatric AA is the severe form of AA. Oral tofacitinib is a successful treatment for AA in adults and pediatric patients."

Targeting neurodevelopmental defects in Dravet syndrome mice rescues behaviour but not seizures and mortality.

We disclosed neurodevelopmental components in DS that selectively underlie some cognitive/behavioral defects, but not seizures, and we show that seizures and neuropsychiatric dysfunctions can be uncoupled and can have differential pathological mechanisms in DEEs. They could be treated separately with targeted pharmacological strategies."

Development and biopharmaceutical evaluation of aqueous micelle based corticosteroid formulations for topical treatment of oral lichen planus. (PubMed, Int J Pharm) - "The aims of this study were to develop aqueous micelle based formulations of triamcinolone acetonide (TA) and fluocinonide (FLU), using D-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol succinate, and to investigate corticosteroid delivery to the epithelium-lamina propria junction region - the anatomical target for OLP treatment - in comparison to that from marketed products. In contrast, the amounts deposited after applying Kenacort® A Orabase® and Novoter, were < LOQ. The results demonstrated that TPGS-based micelles improved mucosal bioavailability of TA and FLU in the epithelium-lamina propria junction region and might serve to improve topical OLP therapy."

Anxiety, depression, and stress were significant predictors of OLP outcomes and positively impacted the treatment with fluocinonide at 6 months."
