First, we are welcoming a second Editor-in-Chief to our Editorial Board. Derrick Adams, DO, will be upping his contribution to the journal, joining me at the helm of our growing publication, and we couldn’t be happier. We are adopting a new format, as well. After this final print volume, the journal is transitioning to an online-only format, which will bring some new functionality and ease to each issue. Academic sponsorship has been increasingly difficult to secure over the last few years, and many of our sponsors have reduced their scholarship divisions. Currently, it costs around $45K per year to manage and print the journal, exclusive of all the great volunteer work that the editorial board and AOCD donate. I was very fortunate to inherit a great foundation from Dr. Jay Gottlieb and the many others who helped build this journal, under whose financial stewardship established solvency during the first 10 years of the endeavor; that alone been the reason

Hearing2 1Medical, AbbVie GK, Mita, Tokyo 108-6302, Japan 2Laboratory of Cell Biology, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20892 Correspondence: [email protected] Human melanocytes are distributed not only in the epidermis and in hair follicles but also in mucosa, cochlea (ear), iris (eye), and mesencephalon (brain) among other tissues. Melano- cytes, which are derived from the neural crest, are unique in that they produce eu-/pheo- melanin pigments in unique membrane-bound organelles termed melanosomes, which can be divided into four stages depending on their degree of maturation. Pigmentation production is determined by three distinct elements: enzymes involved in melanin synthesis, proteins required for melanosome structure, and proteins required for their trafficking and distribution. Many genes are involved in regulating pigmentation at various levels, and mutations in many of them cause pigmentary disorders, which can be classified into three types: hyperpigmen- tation (including melasma), hypopigmentation (including oculocutaneous albinism [OCA]), and mixed hyper-/hypopigmentation (including dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria). We briefly review vitiligo as a representative of an acquired hypopigmentation disorder. igments that determine human skin colors somes can be divided into four stages depend- Pinclude melanin, hemoglobin (red), hemo- ing on their degree of maturation.

  • Dermatologic Findings in 16 Patients with Cockayne Syndrome and Cerebro-Oculo-Facial-Skeletal Syndrome
    Research Case Report/Case Series Dermatologic Findings in 16 Patients With Cockayne Syndrome and Cerebro-Oculo-Facial-Skeletal Syndrome Eric Frouin, MD; Vincent Laugel, MD, PhD; Myriam Durand, MSc; Hélène Dollfus, MD, PhD; Dan Lipsker, MD, PhD Supplemental content at IMPORTANCE Cockayne syndrome (CS) and cerebro-oculo-facial-skeletal (COFS) syndrome jamadermatology.com are autosomal recessive diseases that belong to the family of nucleotide excision repair disorders. Our aim was to describe the cutaneous phenotype of patients with these rare diseases. OBSERVATIONS A systematic dermatologic examination of 16 patients included in a European study of CS was performed. The patients were aged 1 to 28 years. Six patients (38%) had mutations in the Cockayne syndrome A (CSA) gene, and the remaining had Cockayne syndrome B (CSB) gene mutations. Fourteen patients were classified clinically as having CS and 2 as having COFS syndrome. Photosensitivity was present in 75% of the patients and was characterized by sunburn after brief sun exposure. Six patients developed symptoms after short sun exposure through a windshield. Six patients had pigmented macules on sun-exposed skin, but none developed a skin neoplasm. Twelve patients (75%) displayed cyanotic acral edema of the extremities. Eight patients had nail dystrophies and 7 had hair anomalies. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE The dermatologic findings of 16 cases of CS and COFS Author Affiliations: Author syndrome highlight the high prevalence of photosensitivity and hair and nail disorders. affiliations are listed at the end of this Cyanotic acral edema was present in 75% of our patients, a finding not previously reported article. in CS.

Although clubbed fingers are mostly asymptomatic, it often predicts the presence of some dreaded underlying diseases.
