This case study of a 50-year-old woman with myotonic dystrophy and multiple basal cell carcinomas suggests there could be a genetic predisposition for certain cutaneous tumors in such patients.

This study developed a micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography method for determining minoxidil in Rogaine and generic products, offering a simple and efficient alternative to HPLC.

This study found that patients with the MITF p.E318K variant are more likely to develop multiple primary melanomas and dysplastic nevi with uncommon dermoscopic patterns compared to non-carriers.

This study will evaluate the clinical efficacy, patient-reported outcomes, and economic impact of the PAXMAN® PSCS 2 automated scalp cooling system versus standard cold-cap therapy to prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss in women with localized breast cancer during anthracycline and taxane treatment.

In this study, cubosome and hexosome carriers with antimicrobial peptides showed varied efficacy, with cubosomes protecting peptides from degradation and enhancing bactericidal effects in some cases, while hexosomes lacked antimicrobial activity.

This study analyzed hair samples from marathon runners with hair loss, finding distinct patterns in mineral content and heavy metal contamination, with more male than female runners experiencing hair loss.

This study found that certain C57BL/6 mouse substrains have a genetic vulnerability to skin lesions resembling central centrifugal cicatrical alopecia in humans, potentially worsened by high vitamin A levels.

Cone beam computed tomography can allow for smaller safety margins around the target area in prostate cancer radiation treatment if used for ongoing treatment checks.

This study in mutant mice found that Bmpr2 and Acvr2a are individually redundant, but together essential for normal hair follicle development, with their reduction causing rapid hair cycling and graying.

In this study, researchers at the Laboratory of Regenerative Medicine WUM are exploring the long-term effects of SARS-CoV-19 infection, focusing on stem cell mobilization and engraftment processes, and utilizing advanced diagnostic techniques to develop algorithms for rare disease classification, including amyloidosis.

This study observed that a CARASIL mouse model demonstrated abnormal behavior, vascular and cellular changes, and upregulation of the TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway, indicating its potential involvement in CARASIL pathogenesis.

In this study, researchers found that CCCA in women of African descent is associated with molecular changes, including dysregulation of fatty acid metabolism and fibrosis pathways, suggesting potential targets for new treatments.

This study found that mice lacking myelin protein zero-like 3 (Mpzl3) had reduced body weight and adiposity despite increased food intake, which was linked to higher energy expenditure and improved glycemic control.

This study found that the AMHR2-482A>G gene polymorphism is associated with an increased likelihood of polycystic ovary syndrome and altered hormone levels in affected women.

In this case report, a 72-year-old female with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome showed significant improvement in symptoms and gastrointestinal polyps after hormone therapy and additional treatment.

Patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus have a higher risk of skin cancer and other cancers.

This study developed a novel treatment method using carbon dots from Cinnamomum burmannii leaves, which improved hair regeneration and thickness in an AGA mouse model by promoting cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and reducing inflammation through multiple signaling pathways.

This study found that engineered reconstituted skin can form morphogenetic units that promote tissue patterning and hair regeneration, with certain signaling pathways restoring this ability in adult and fetal cells.

This abstract provides no research results, focusing instead on navigation and subscription details for JAMA Dermatology content access.

This case report details two patients with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome who showed marked skin lesion improvement with corticosteroid treatment, though cicatricial scalp alopecia remained unresponsive.

A 70-year-old woman with a rare skin condition improved after treatment with topical steroids and acitretin.

This study found that overexpressing the PML protein in transgenic mice decreased skin tumor occurrence and delayed their progression, highlighting PML's potential role in influencing keratinocyte growth and differentiation.

This study found that deleting the CD98hc protein in mouse skin impairs wound healing and homeostasis, resembling aging effects, due to disrupted integrin signaling pathways.

This article reviews the classification, pathogenesis, and treatment options for cutaneous lupus erythematosus and reports no new clinical findings.

This Phase 1 study reported that topical application of BPM31543 was safe and well-tolerated in patients receiving taxane-based chemotherapy, with some experiencing less than 50% hair loss, suggesting potential efficacy in reducing chemotherapy-induced alopecia, although no maximum tolerated dose was identified.

This study identified several genetic variants associated with cattle hair coat length, which may help breed more heat-tolerant animals by facilitating efficient heat loss.

This case report highlights a 60-year-old patient's diagnosis with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, characterized by gastrointestinal polyps, diarrhea, weight loss, brittle nails, alopecia, and skin changes, which showed improvement with treatment.

This report reviews familial cases of aplasia cutis of the scalp, noting large irregular defects at the vertex or anterior along the sagittal suture in six families.

This study suggests that the cell membrane complex in hair cuticles contains hydrophilic regions with disulfide bonds allowing polymer uptake and hydrophobic lamella-like lipid layers.
