This study used integrated single-cell chromatin and transcriptomic analyses in developing mouse skin to uncover gene networks involved in skin lineage specification and identified Mef2c+ upper fibroblasts as potential precursors to certain muscle-like structures, with cross-species findings in human skin.

E13 fetal mouse fibroblast vesicles may help reduce scarring.

In this study, periodic exposure to red light in aged mice led to increased histone acetylation and activated mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation, which collectively mitigated cellular aging by modulating metabolism, inflammation, and gene expression.

This review discusses the processes of melanocyte stem cell quiescence and activation, focusing on their interaction with hair follicle stem cells, and highlights current research on hair graying mechanisms; it reports no new results.

In a conditional knockout mouse model, this study found that loss of the transcription elongation factor SPT6 in basal keratinocytes led to psoriasis-like skin inflammation and delayed wound healing, suggesting SPT6 plays a crucial role in maintaining epidermal immune quiescence by suppressing proinflammatory NF-κB signaling.

This study demonstrates that a novel autologous hair follicle-derived epithelial sheet can effectively repigment skin in patients with stable vitiligo, offering a potential new treatment option.

This review highlights research reporting that oral collagen peptide supplements are effective in enhancing skin elasticity, hydration, and reducing wrinkles, although results vary across studies. Oral supplementation was generally well-tolerated, and further investigation is needed to optimize formulations and explore topical application challenges.

In this clinical trial, patients with lichen planopilaris treated with the oral TYK2 inhibitor deucravacitinib showed significant improvement in PGA, LPPAI, and Skindex-16 scores over 24 weeks, with transcriptomic analyses indicating decreased inflammatory and immune pathway activity post-treatment.

This study found that Fraser's Dolphin, a tight-skinned mammal, can regenerate complex skin architecture with minimal scarring after large full-thickness wounds, even in high-tension environments, offering insights into regenerative healing mechanisms typically obscured by fibrotic responses.

This review highlights LTBP1 as a critical integrator in disease processes, showing its dual role in cancer progression and suppression, its pathological influence in fibrosis, and its contribution to various disorders, suggesting its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target.

This study concluded that dermatologists are integral to the care of cancer survivors by shifting focus from symptomatic skin treatment to preventive and rehabilitative strategies that enhance long-term skin health and quality of life post-oncology therapy.

This review suggests that induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) hold promise for treating chronic wounds, but further work is needed to address safety, efficacy, and translation from preclinical models to real-world applications.

This study found that administering human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) in a mouse model of psoriasis improved skin lesions and reduced inflammation-related markers, suggesting potential therapeutic benefit and safety for treating psoriasis, and identified specific gene targets involved in the treatment's mechanism.

This review suggests a shift toward genetically informed treatments for male pattern hair loss by integrating genetic insights and pharmacogenetic markers into therapeutic decision-making.

This systematic review found that exosome-based therapies significantly improve skin elasticity, reduce wrinkle depth, enhance hydration, and modulate pigmentation, with minimal adverse events reported across multiple studies. However, further clinical trials are necessary to confirm long-term efficacy and safety.

This study observed that exosomes derived from adipose-derived stem cells significantly enhanced bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell migration and osteogenesis, leading to improved bone regeneration in a rat model of calvarial defects.

This review discusses the molecular mechanisms and clinical applications of autologous platelet-derived products for TMJ regeneration, but reports no new clinical results.

This narrative literature review examined how linking embryonic development with non-genetic skin anomalies can improve diagnostic accuracy, guide prenatal counseling, and enrich dermatology education by revealing specific vulnerabilities in skin morphogenesis and supporting advances in regenerative medicine.

This review evaluates existing research on topical metformin for skin conditions, reporting promising outcomes such as improved wound healing, melasma, psoriasis, acne, and alopecia, with innovative formulations like hydrogels and lipid nanoparticles enhancing its cutaneous delivery while minimizing systemic exposure.

This case report highlights that scarring alopecia with features of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa and lichen planopilaris can occur in patients with a COL7A1 mutation, emphasizing the need to recognize concurrent inflammatory causes.

This study demonstrated that skin organoids derived from human stem cells can model cutaneous tuberculosis, revealing that fibrosis development in Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected organoids is linked to the PI3K-AKT and AP1 pathways in fibroblasts, and suggesting the potential for antifibrotic treatment evaluation.

This study highlights the potential of ZDHHC17 methylation as a biomarker or therapeutic target in addressing skin aging, offering new insights into its molecular mechanisms.

This study found that Limelight (CB-EVs) exosomes significantly promoted hair elongation ex vivo without cytotoxicity, suggesting potential as a safe and effective hair growth therapy.

This study mapped a detailed genetic profile of goat hair follicle apoptosis, identifying key genes and regulatory factors involved in the hair cycle, offering new insights into programmed cell death.

This study synthesizes knowledge of how dendritic cell signals, epithelial integrins, and fibroblast activity converge on TGF-β1 to maintain or disrupt skin healing, contrasting normal and fibrotic scar formation and suggesting possible integrin and immune-targeted treatments for skin fibrosis.

In this review, retinoids are highlighted as promising agents for promoting scarless skin regeneration by coordinating cellular and molecular processes that suppress fibrosis, enhance re-epithelialization, promote angiogenesis, and enable hair follicle formation, potentially advancing functional skin repair.

This study found that the protein C4BPA may link insulin resistance and acne vulgaris by influencing lipid metabolism and inflammatory pathways, suggesting it as a potential mediator in the pathogenesis of both conditions.

Using high-throughput proteomics, this study identified 34 differentially expressed proteins in the lesional skin of adults with scalp psoriasis, suggesting a cytokine storm response linked to bacterial antigens.

In this study, researchers identified six novel prognostic biomarkers for bladder cancer and developed a predictive model that effectively stratifies patients into high-risk and low-risk groups based on immune cell infiltration differences and gene expression.

In this study, intralesional triamcinolone acetonide combined with 5-fluorouracil was more effective for treating keloids, showing a good to excellent response in 95% of cases and fewer side effects, compared to triamcinolone acetonide alone, which achieved a 70% response rate.
