Localized scleroderma is a connective tissue disorder with hardening of the skin and fibrosis of the affected tissue as the most prominent features. The etiology of localized scleroderma is still unknown, but immunologic factors may play an important role in the pathogenesis. This study was performed to determine the immunohistochemical features of the cellular infiltrate in localized scleroderma.

    Arthritis development is accompanied the changes in the expression of a number of epigenome-modifying enzymes. Drug-induced downregulation of the Aurora kinases, among other targets, seems to be sufficient to treat experimental arthritis. Development of new therapeutics that target the Aurora kinase...
