This study identified two novel mutations in the CDH3 gene causing HJMD in a Chinese patient, expanding the genetic and phenotypic understanding of the disorder.

This study found that inactivating CerS4 in mouse epidermis disrupts lipid homeostasis and is crucial for maintaining, but not forming, the skin barrier.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African-descent females, discussing possible causes, associated styling habits, and potential treatments, but reports no new clinical findings; the authors call for further research.

This research introduces WomenCare, a web-based system using a machine learning model to predict PCOD risk by evaluating factors like age, BMI, and lifestyle habits; it aims to help women monitor their health but is not a substitute for a professional diagnosis.

This study retrospectively analyzed 945 patients with head and neck cSCC to identify risk factors for recurrences, reporting treatment modality, tumor characteristics, and patient factors such as immunosuppression as strong predictors for loco-regional recurrences.

This review explores the potential of cell-mediated drug delivery systems in dermatology, highlighting their ability to target inflamed or diseased skin while discussing applications in diseases like atopic dermatitis and melanoma, along with challenges such as immunogenicity and manufacturing.

This study found that the CYP3A4 rs4646437 genotype was significantly associated with ALT elevation in Japanese patients undergoing asunaprevir plus daclatasvir therapy for chronic HCV infection, suggesting genotyping may help in monitoring patients safely.

In this study, researchers identified PSENEN mutations that can lead to a form of Dowling-Degos disease, characterized by follicular hyperkeratosis and an increased susceptibility to acne inversa, especially in the presence of certain trigger factors.

This study found that ADSC-conditioned media was effective in increasing hair density and thickness in female pattern hair loss patients over a 12-week period.

This article describes a method using the CUBIC protocol to clarify and visualize molecular and cellular interactions in mouse skin biopsies at single cell resolution, but does not provide new biological findings.

This study identified CCCA in 10 children of African descent, highlighting the occurrence of this scarring alopecia in patients under 18 and the importance of early diagnosis for better outcomes.

This review discusses dietary manipulation strategies in a mouse model of CBS deficiency and reports no new results; the authors emphasize the importance of understanding gene-diet interactions.

TCDD changes skin gene expression and may harm skin health.

This study found that the Cutaneous Lupus Disease Area and Severity Index (CLASI) is correlated with both physician-assessed and patient-reported outcomes in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, particularly highlighting concerns about body image in visible areas.

This publication presents a library of geometric medicines designed to selectively target pathogenic bacteria and fungi with high precision while minimizing ecological harm, available for free on a non-commercial basis.
