Diseases of the Oral Mucosa
This textbook details the latest diagnostic and management options available when treating patients with diseases affecting the oral mucosa. It comprehensively covers the content required to successfully pass dermatology and stomatology board examinations, while being a valuable resource for dentistry trainees. Chapters cover aspects of mucosal immunity and clinical scores along with a range of diseases. Didactic features including learning objectives enable the reader to better extrapolate the key concepts covered in each chapter. Diseases of the Oral Mucosa: Study Guide and Review presents an in depth overview of the latest diagnostic tools and management options available for diseases of the oral mucosa and is an ideal resource for trainee and practising dentists, dermatologists and stomatologists preparing to sit board examinations.

Pemphigus and pemphigoid diseases: in memoriam Detlef Zillikens
Pemphigus and pemphigoid diseases are a heterogenous group of autoimmune blistering disorders (AIBD) characterized by tissue-bound and circulating autoantibodies against structural proteins of the desmosome and basement membrane zone of the skin and orifice-close mucosal tissues. While strong evidence has been provided that autoantibodies in AIBD are pathogenic, the exact mechanisms of how blister formation is mediated is very different between pemphigus and pemphigoid disorders and yet incompletely understood. Additionally, target antigens for the major AIBDs have already been identified on the molecular level. In contrast, diagnostic assays are not yet available for all autoantibody specif...

A Life for Autoimmune Blistering Diseases: in Memoriam Detlef Zillikens
Abstract: Detlef Zillikens, MD, director and chair of the Department of Dermatology at the University of Lübeck, Lübeck, Germany, died in September 2022, aged only 64. He dedicated his professional life to autoimmune blistering diseases (AIBDs) and built his department into one of the world's leading centers for these diseases. Herein, his professional life and the impact on the field of AIBDs and the research landscape at the University of Lübeck are addressed. With his warm, integrative, open-minded, ever-optimistic attitude, he was a highly reliable colleague, mentor, and friend to many in the field including each of the authors. Combined with his in-depth knowledge of dermatology, int...
Chemokines and Skin
The present volume summarizes the state of information on chemokines focussing on skin diseases. The first three chapters deal with the structure and molecular biology of chemokines and their receptors. The following three review information on the interaction of chemokines with lymphocytes, mast cells and eosinophilic granulocytes. One chapter deals with the expression of chemokines in several inflammatory skin diseases. The final chapter reports on in vitro evidence for a growth-promoting activity of chemokines in skin-derived tumor cells. The volume is of use for the basic scientist interested in practical aspects and for the physician in search for basic mechanisms of skin diseases.
Metal Allergy
This volume opens by providing a comprehensive overview of the use and regulation of metals in our society, metal properties, and available testing methodologies. Common and uncommon metal allergens and sources of exposure are then reviewed in depth, detailing allergic responses and paying special consideration to select patient populations. In the general population, the prevalence of metal allergy is high. Environmental sources of metal exposure include jewelry, clothing, electronic devices, coins, leather, diet, and occupational exposure. Metal allergy may result in allergic contact dermatitis and systemic contact dermatitis, as well as several less common manifestations. Further, metal allergy has been associated with device failure and/or dermatitis following implantation of medical devices and dental implants. As metals are ubiquitous, this book will be indispensable for a wide range of clinicians and investigators. This handy reference will meet the needs of all health professionals and investigators who are interested in metal allergy and its diagnosis and management.
