This case report describes a patient with systemic sclerosis and severe alopecia areata who experienced complete resolution of hair loss within four months after treatment with topical steroids, minoxidil, and mycophenolate mofetil.

This study describes the diagnosis and successful management of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome in a 78-year-old man, highlighting improvement in symptoms and endoscopic findings after treatment with prednisone and supportive therapies.

This study found that cystatin M/E strongly inhibits human cathepsin V and cathepsin L via distinct non-overlapping sites, suggesting an important role in human epidermal differentiation and hair follicle morphogenesis.

This research explores the use of serial block-face scanning electron microscopy to model the complex architecture of sheep wool fibres, focusing on the role and distribution of para- and ortho-cortical cells in determining wool curliness, though the mechanism remains unclear.

The optimized Cinchonine gel effectively fights acne bacteria and is safe for twice-daily use.

This study in Hexi cashmere goats found that secondary follicle activity increases with time, and Hoxc13 expression varies significantly across different growth stages, suggesting a role in follicle activity.

This study used nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry to locate where calcium and copper are concentrated in colored hair, finding these metals particularly in the cuticle's sulfur-rich regions.

In this study, newly diagnosed women with mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome and those with alopecia experienced significantly poorer health-related quality of life.

Genetic changes in specific proteins contribute to hair loss in some women of African descent.

This study identified a novel locus for hereditary hypotrichosis simplex on chromosome 13q12.12~12.3 in a four-generation Chinese family.

This study found that keratin filament networks in SG1 cells of mice undergo dynamic changes during cornification, impacting the barrier function of the stratum corneum.

This review discusses the roles of store-operated Ca 2+ entry proteins in skin cell function and their links to various skin diseases, but it reports no new results.

This study reported that a Megsin-Cre transgene enables genetic manipulation primarily in skin, forestomach, and esophagus tissues, offering a new tool for studying development and diseases in these areas.

This descriptive study reported that Chronic Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus was the most prevalent subtype, highlighting distinct clinical and pathological features among Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus subtypes.

This study found that knocking out vinculin in mouse skin disrupts bulge stem cell quiescence by impairing force generation and mechanical stability of adherens junctions.

This case report describes the diagnosis and management of a 15-year-old girl with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, highlighting the importance of thorough physical exams for early detection and treatment planning.

This review discusses the hedgehog signaling pathway's role in cutaneous tumors and hematological disorders, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found no significant difference in hair cortisol concentrations between sows confined in farrowing crates and those in loose-housing systems, suggesting confinement may not affect chronic stress levels.

This study found that high-charge-density cassia HPTC improves deposition efficiency and conditioning benefits in shampoos compared to quaternized guar, suggesting its potential as an alternative or adjunct conditioning agent.

In this study, CCCA patients were found to have higher odds of metabolic, autoimmune, atopic, and psychiatric comorbidities compared to matched controls.

In this study, topical CUR61414 was effective in inhibiting basal cell carcinomas in mice, but no clinical activity was observed in human trials.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, focusing on its multifactorial etiology and challenges in clinical diagnosis, and calls for more research and better treatment options.

In this research, experienced clinicians noted inconsistency in the reproducibility of the commonly used Hamilton-Ludwig scales for assessing pattern hair loss severity in photographic assessments, leading to the proposal of a new 5-point scale for staging female hair loss.

This study found that cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas in mice infected with murine papillomavirus preferentially arise from Lgr5+ progenitor cells, while squamous cell dysplasia does not.
