This study found that anagen stage protein homogenates and specific epitopes from melanogenesis proteins activated CD8 T cells, suggesting alopecia areata is an anagen-specific disease.

This review discusses the challenges in identifying specific hair follicle antigens involved in initiating alopecia areata and highlights the need for further research to understand its etiopathogenesis, reporting no new results.

This study found that human hair keratin artificial tendons have low antigenity and may serve as an effective substitute for tendon repair in the upper extremities.

This review examines histochemical and immunohistochemical markers to differentiate apocrine and eccrine sweat glands, highlighting their distinct markers, though it reports no new clinical findings.

A man developed a rare skin condition and drug-induced lupus, highlighting the need for biopsy in diagnosing skin issues caused by sunlight.

This study suggests that human hard keratin proteins may be biocompatible materials, unlikely to cause rejection or allergic reactions based on their antigenicity in BALB/c mice.

This review explores the cellular dynamics of graft rejection in vascularized composite allotransplantation and discusses how understanding these processes might lead to innovative treatments for managing rejection.

This study used rapid-freezing immunocytochemistry to successfully map the ultrastructural localization of hair keratins in human scalp hair, primarily finding them in macrofibrils in the cortex and endocuticle.

This article highlights the versatility and potential of alginate and its derivatives in tissue engineering applications, discussing their properties, modification techniques, and various uses in enhancing tissue healing, bone regeneration, and cell growth.

This review discusses recent advances in surface modification and endothelialization of biomaterials for vascular grafts, highlighting promising methods like gene engineering and targeting ligand immobilization to improve clinical outcomes.

This review discusses biological sex differences in COVID-19 outcomes and reports no new clinical results; it identifies a need for studies to clarify how sex influences disease progression.

This study found that chitosan nanofibrillar scaffolds accelerated skin wound healing in mice by enhancing cell adhesion, proliferation, and regeneration of epidermis and dermis compared to other forms.

This review discusses sex-based differences in immune responses, focusing on genetic, hormonal, and microbiome factors influencing infections like COVID-19, and reports no clinical results.

This paper reviews the use of interferons, particularly alfa interferon, in treating cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, noting its substantial efficacy both alone and in combination therapies with predictable, generally well-tolerated side effects.

This study found that about 80% of known fullerene-binding proteins rank in the top 10% of scorers for C60 docking sites, confirming the accuracy of the predictive model used.

This study found that mice with a mutant CDP/Cux protein lacking the homeodomain showed severely impaired growth, high postnatal mortality, and reduced fertility, highlighting CDP/Cux's role in developmental regulation.

This article reviews the role of Pityrosporum (Malassezia) in skin conditions such as pityriasis versicolor, seborrheic dermatitis, and atopic dermatitis, and discusses treatment approaches; it reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights the potential of extracellular vesicle-based therapies for treating various diseases, but it also notes challenges like the lack of regulatory guidelines that hinder their clinical development.

Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.

This review examines the mechanisms of lung fluid imbalance in COVID-19-related pulmonary edema and suggests potential drug targets to improve management and reduce mortality.

This review discusses the dermatological adverse events from immunosuppressive and anti-TNF therapy in IBD, finding increased risks of non-melanoma skin cancer and other skin conditions, and recommends regular cancer screening.

This review discusses the basic biology of apoptosis and its relevance to skin diseases, without presenting new research findings.

This study found that specific mutations in the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 may significantly alter its structure and affect how it binds to certain inhibitors, but experimental studies are needed to confirm potential clinical implications.

In this study, mouse amnion epithelium was successfully transformed into skin and hair follicles when associated with hair-forming dermis, revealing the necessity of specific influences for follicle formation.

This study found that preserving hair micrografts in an enriched storage medium for five hours significantly increased their survival rate compared to those stored in saline.

This study presents three cases where tinea capitis in children mimicked cicatricial alopecia and explores host and fungal factors that may influence the disease's presentation and treatment.

This study found that intact pilosebaceous units were more effective than truncated hair follicles at regenerating a multilayered epidermis in a de-epidermalized dermis in vitro.
