ETIOLOGY AND PATHOGENESIS
|
|
What is the relationship of perforating
folliculitis, APD, & KD?
|
They are in a disease spectrum or
different stages in lesional development(folliculitis→APD→KD ).
|
What might be the primary disorder of
perforating folliculitis?
|
Infectious folliculitis, such as
Pityrosporum folliculitis.
|
What is the most important mechanism of
APD?
|
Pruritus → manipulation/trauma
|
What is the role of DM in the mechanism
of APD? (3)
|
1.
DM→advanced glycation end
product →vasculopathy/angiopathy
2.
DM→advanced glycation end
product–modified collagens I & III binds CD36→ keratinocyte terminal
differentiation & upward movement of keratinocytes along with glycated
collagen
3.
DM→↑Fibronectin→keratinocytes
acts with collagen IV
|
What are the other mechanisms of
APD?
|
1.
Dialysis→dermal microdeposition
(calcium salts, silicon)
2.
Vitamin A deficiency.
3.
Uremia→↑fibronectin→keratinocytes
acts with collagen IV
4.
Imbalances in TGF-β3, MMP-1,
& tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1(TIMP-1) →disturbance of matrix.
|
What is the possible mechanisms of EPS
|
1.
↑elastin receptors(both familial & acquired)
2.
Penicillamine→“bramble
bush–appearing” elastic fibers
|
DIAGNOSIS
|
|
HISTOPATHOLOGY
|
|
What are the pathological features of
APD?
|
Epidermis: follicular/perifollicular, transepidermal elimination of dermal
material through an epidermal invagination + central keratotic plug +
crusting or hyperkeratosis.
Dermis: Nφ→ lymphcytes, Mφ, multinucleated
giant cells
|
What is the pathological difference
between APDs?
|
APC: collagen
bundles in the plug
Perforating folliculitis: “follicular
APC”
AEPS: elastic fibers in the plug
KD: amorphous dermal material + fibrin &/or keratin in the plug(表皮與滲出物較多)
Clear
identification is impossible; there is overlap.
|
LABORATORY TESTS
|
|
What laboratory evaluations should be
checked?
|
