This study found that human epidermal keratinocytes express a functional μ-opiate receptor at both the mRNA and protein levels, potentially playing a role in skin physiology and pathology.

This study identified a new subset of Ret-positive sensory neurons involved in itch perception, characterized by their unique expression profile and response to specific itch-inducing molecules.

This review examined the role of the ion channel TRPV3 in warmth sensation and skin physiology, discussing controversies around its direct contribution to temperature perception, its involvement in skin health, and its potential as a therapeutic target for skin diseases.

This study found that subjective scalp sensations like hurting and burning are common among alopecia patients, with burning in particular showing a significant association with psychological distress in patients with lichen planopilaris and androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a potential psychoneuroinflammatory pathway.

This paper proposes a systematic approach to evaluating scalp itch using the SCALLP acronym and highlights the importance of classifying cases based on the presence of dermatological lesions and hair loss, but it reports no new clinical findings.
