This case report shows that a crural fasciectomy should be considered, especially in the case of otherwise therapy-refractory courses of venous leg ulcers.
With responsible, safe and successful use of artificial intelligence (AI), possible advantages in the field of dermato-oncology include the following (1) medical work can focus on skin cancer patients, (2) patients can be more quickly and effectively treated despite the increasing incidence of skin cancer and the decreasing number of actively working dermatologists and (3) users can learn from the AI results. POTENTIAL DISADVANTAGES AND RISKS OF AI USE (1) Lack of mutual trust can develop due to the decreased patient-physician contact, (2) additional time effort will be necessary to promptly evaluate the AI-classified benign lesions, (3) lack of adequate medical experience to recognize misclassified AI decisions and (4) recontacting a patient in due time in the case of incorrect AI classifications. Still problematic in the use of AI are the medicolegal situation and remuneration. Apps using AI currently cannot provide sufficient assistance based on clinical images of skin cancer.
Smartphone program applications (apps) can be implemented responsibly when the image quality is good, the patient's history can be entered easily, transmission of the image and results are assured and medicolegal aspects as well as remuneration are clarified. TAS-120 mw Apps can be used for disease-specific information material and can optimize patient care by using teledermatology.

Rats were pre-treated with L-theanine at 0, 50, 200, or 800 mg/kg/day. IBD was induced in rats using dextran sulfate sodium (DSS). Histopathological analysis suggests that L-theanine can suppress DSS-induced IBD with significant inhibition of inflammation in large and small intestinal tissues. Moreover, the 200 mg/kg/day L-theanine-treated DSS group had higher body and small intestine weights, a lower disease activity index and expression of inflammatory factors than the DSS group without pre-treatment. In RNA sequencing and tandem mass tag labeling analyses, large number of mRNAs and proteins expression level differed when compared with the DSS-induced rats with and without 200 mg/kg/day L-theanine pre-treatment. Moreover, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis indicates the anti-inflammatory activities of L-theanine in DSS-induced IBD, with a high representation of genes in "Cholesterol metabolism" and "Retinol metabolism" pathways. Analysis of protein-protein interaction networks further indicates the involvement of these two pathways. These studies suggest that medium-dose L-theanine pre-treatment could ameliorate DSS-induced IBD through molecular mechanisms involving cholesterol and retinol metabolism.Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) results in irreversible cardiac cell damage or death because of decreased blood flow to the heart. Apoptosis plays an important role in the process of tissue damage after myocardial infarction (MI), which has pathological and therapeutic implications. Ferulic acid (FA) is a phenolic acid endowed with strong antioxidative and cytoprotective activities. The present study aimed to investigate whether FA protects cardiomyocytes from apoptosis by regulating autophagy, which is a cellular self-digestion process, and one of the first lines of defense against oxidative stress. Apoptosis was induced by TNF-α (10 ng/mL) and cycloheximide (CHX, 5 μg/mL) in rat H9c2 cardiomyocytes. FA-inhibited TNF-α/CHX-induced apoptosis was determined by the quantification of TUNEL-positive cells, and the effect was associated with decreased ROS production and inhibited caspase3 activation. FA treatment enhanced autophagy and increased autophagy-associated protein expression, leading to an inhibition of mTOR signaling. When co-treated with 3-methyladenine (3-MA), an autophagy inhibitor, the anti-apoptotic effect of FA was attenuated. In an in vivo mouse MI model, FA treatment decreased the apoptotic cell number, reduced infarct size, and improved cardiac performance, as determined by histological and echocardiographic assessments. Taken collectively, these results suggest that FA could protect cardiomyocytes from apoptosis by enhancing autophagy.This study was performed to evaluate the anticancer effect of ω-hydroxyundec-9-enoic acid (ω-HUA), a microbial bio-catalyst product in breast cancer cells, through AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) regulation. ω-HUA mediated apoptosis was induced in breast cancer cells by AMPK activation, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. ω-HUA treatment of breast cancer cells increased the AMPK phosphorylation levels, cleaved caspase-3, and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) proteins. In addition, anti-apoptotic members, such as Bcl-2, were downregulated, while Bax, a pro-apoptotic member, was upregulated. ω-HUA decreased the mitochondrial membrane potential while increasing the expression of cytochrome c (cyt c). Treating the cells with compound C, an AMPK inhibitor, reversed the phenomena, leading to an increase in cell viability and a decrease in apoptosis induction. Treating the cells with an ROS scavenger, N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), led to AMPK inactivation and apoptosis inhibition, allowing the recovery of cell health. In conclusion, ω-HUA sequentially caused the production of mitochondrial ROS and the consequent AMPK activation, thereby inducing apoptosis in breast cancer cells. Thus, ω-HUA may prove useful as an anticancer agent that targets AMPK in breast cancer cells.
