This study found that epimorphin is closely linked to developing hair follicles in human fetuses, suggesting it plays a significant role in hair follicle morphogenesis.

Cocaine use can cause a blistering skin disease.

This study reported that trichoscopy revealed distinctive patterns across different autoimmune bullous diseases, suggesting it can be a useful preliminary diagnostic tool for differentiating these conditions.

This review discusses the association between scarring alopecia and inflammatory processes in common acquired bullous disorders of the scalp, and reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes a patient who developed severe alopecia and a rash after increasing captopril dosage, which resolved upon discontinuing the medication.

This study found that macroscopic vesiculobullous lesions with epidermal devitalization in dogs are part of the clinical spectrum of canine cutaneous epitheliotropic T-cell lymphoma.

This review discusses the formation and structure of the cornified cell envelope in the epidermis, highlighting biochemical pathways and genetic factors, but presents no new experimental results.

This case report is the first to document the coexistence of bullous pemphigoid, malignant tumors, and alopecia areata in a patient, highlighting the complete resolution of skin lesions with dupilumab and spontaneous hair regrowth without disease-specific treatment.

In this case report, researchers describe a rare instance of bullous lupus presenting with severe esophageal involvement in a 42-year-old woman, highlighting the significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges encountered in such cases despite successful treatment with immunosuppressive therapy.

This study found that ILK deficiency disrupts hair follicle development by impairing cell polarity and laminin-511 assembly, but these defects can be partially reversed with exogenous laminin-511.

This study observed that using a relaxed suture technique on scalp incisions may prevent linear scars by reducing pressure on upper stem cells.

This case report describes perifollicular melanocyte regeneration in the affected skin of a patient with bullous pemphigoid, highlighting an underreported aspect of the condition in skin of color patients, and emphasizing the need for increased awareness and earlier diagnosis in this demographic.

High blood pressure drugs often cause skin lupus, stopping the drug usually helps. A vaccine helps prevent genital herpes and HPV-16. More frequent light therapy clears psoriasis faster. No link was found between low iron and chronic hair loss.

This study found that deleting all three Desmoglein 1 genes in mice led to impaired skin barrier function, disorganized epidermis, and postnatal lethality, highlighting Dsg1's essential role in epidermal development and maintenance.

This study found that bullous lupus erythematosus lesions in cutaneous lupus erythematosus showed distinctive histopathology with neutrophilic predominance and were associated with severe disease and higher extracutaneous involvement.

This paper presents a new methodology combining magnetic tweezers and traction force microscopy to study keratinocyte mechanobiology, but reports no experimental results yet.

This article reviews skin disorders in Parkinson's disease, highlighting the potential of skin studies and stem cell research to advance understanding and treatment of the neurodegenerative disorder, without presenting new results.

This review discusses various systemic diseases associated with secondary alopecia and reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes the importance of addressing underlying conditions and using diagnostic tools like trichoscopy and histopathology.

In this case report, researchers documented a 71-year-old woman with both alopecia areata and bullous pemphigoid who showed significant improvement using dupilumab after other treatments failed, highlighting its potential for autoimmune diseases with overlapping inflammatory mechanisms.
