Immunopathological studies on a case of Sweet's syndrome.

Immunopathological studies in a case of Sweet's syndrome revealed IgM- and IgE-bearing polymorphonuclear leucocytes in involved skin when the direct immunofluorescence technique was used. Circulating polymorphonuclear neutrophils showed defective chemotaxis with normal random migration, phagocytosis, killing, and hexose monophosphate shunt activity.

Hair casts.

Peripilar hair casts are a pathological occurrence which is probably greater than the few reports seem to suggest. In 2 patients the authors have found fine, whitish nodular accretions of epithelial cells and keratinous debris surrounding the hair shafts of the scalp over a length of 3--7 mm located at various distances from the base of the hair along which they can freely move. Long-term or repetitive tractions incidental to modern hair styling or a moderate trichotillomania due to anxiety for hair loss are probably the causative factors.

Cutaneous hydroxystereoid dehydrogenases and rat-hair cycle.

The histochemical activity pattern of a number of hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases was studied during a provoked hair cycle in the rat skin. The intensity of reaction was high with dehydroepiandrosterone, estradiol, androsterone and pregnenolone, and none with 11-beta-hydroxyprogesterone, testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, 17-alpha-hydroxypregnenolone and 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone. Reactivity also varied with the hair cycle. The reactive sit-s were the acini of sebaceous glands and the hair sheaths.
