Scratching in response to pruritus exacerbates dermatitis and is pathogenic in certain diseases; however, scratching is often a pleasurable sensation, suggesting that this action provides some benefit to the host. Upon activation through crosslinking of IgE to Fc?RI or through neuron-derived substance P binding of MRGPRB2 receptor, mast cells not only trigger histamine-induced vascular permeability, edema, and pruritus but also induce neutrophil recruitment. To more clearly understand the intersection between itch, scratching behavior, and inflammation, Liu et al (2025) found that the MRGPRA2-expressing itch-sensing neurons were required for scratching and inflammation.

A Curated and Updated Database of Pharmacological Skin Cancer Preventative Modalities

Keratinocyte carcinomas (KC), common skin cancers consisting predominantly of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), affect more than 6 million patients per year (Hu et al. 2022). KC is associated with substantial morbidity, and treatment accounted for upwards of 0.14% of the Danish health care budget in 2013 (Bentzen et al. 2013). Broad-scope prevention modalities rely on avoidance of ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and application of sunscreen; however, compliance rates remain low even in at-risk populations (Goldenberg et al.
