Abstract

Neuropeptides released due to stress can, as a result of oxidative damage, cause cytotoxicity to melanocytes and keratinlcyte. But the Blaschkoid pattern of two different auto immune diseases existing in the same patient at different sites is skeptical. Hence we revise the neurogenic theory and propose a new conjecture through a case report.

Keywords: Neuropeptides
