In this case study from King Fahad University Hospital, an 11-month-old Saudi boy with a history of short, non-growing hair was diagnosed with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, attributed to a homozygous mutation in the LIPH gene.

In this study, 13 androgenetic alopecia patients receiving Er: Yag laser treatment showed a significant increase in Staphylococcus spp. three days post-treatment, suggesting the laser may help modulate scalp microbiota balance.

This study explored the effects of red ginseng-derived components on aging skin cells and found they do not have senolytic properties but can alleviate signs of cellular aging and improve skin cell function by reducing senescence markers and inflammation.

This editorial discusses the experiences and highlights of the Dermatology Nurses' Association's annual convention, including educational sessions about skin conditions and nursing strategies, and emphasizes the importance of continuing education and involvement in health policy and advocacy for dermatology nursing professionals.

This study identified a novel pathogenic splice-site variant of the LAMB3 gene in patients with junctional epidermolysis bullosa, highlighting the importance of gene sequencing for diagnosis.

This review discusses various methods for delivering CRISPR/Cas9 for gene editing in vitro and in vivo, highlighting delivery as a major challenge but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that trichilemmal carcinoma shares genetic changes with other skin cancers, suggesting a similar pathogenesis, particularly in those with aggressive clinical courses linked to TP53 mutations.

This study reported genetic mutations in trichilemmal carcinoma similar to those found in other skin cancers, including TP53 mutations associated with aggressive disease.

This study demonstrated potential in using specific keratin peptide profiles from human hair shafts to distinguish gender and ethnicity, suggesting it could enhance forensic investigations, though larger studies are needed.

This study observed that Indian women with PCOS had distinct gut microbiome profiles, linking specific bacterial genera to metabolic and hormonal predictors of the condition.

Mitochondria may influence how cells respond to radiation, affecting nearby non-irradiated cells.

This study suggests a potential link between proteasome function and nucleotide excision repair in animal models with defects in the NER pathway, with implications for ageing.

This study determined that the genome size of Eclipta alba is 4.27 billion base pairs and Aloe barbadensis is 4.42 billion base pairs, providing data for potential future research.

This article reviews the history and dermatologic side effects of alkylating agents used in chemotherapy, noting that some agents like chlorambucil can cause recurrent symptoms upon rechallenge, whereas others are tolerated.

In this study, the researchers reported that altering β-catenin signaling in a transgenic mouse model led to changes in skin cell fate, notably converting hair follicle cells into epidermal cells and forming cysts instead of follicles.

This study found that in a transgenic mouse model, a modified form of β-catenin inhibited normal hair follicle development and promoted epidermal cyst formation, revealing distinct effects on Wnt signaling.

This study successfully grew and maintained human hair follicles in vitro, noting that TGF-β1 negatively affects growth, while EGF replicates hair-removal effects seen in animals.

This article reviews the design and objectives of the Rotterdam Study, as well as summarizes major findings, without reporting new results.

This review discusses the expression patterns and biochemical roles of Msx and Dlx genes during development but does not present new research findings.

This study suggests that the residues Val-889 and Arg-752 in the androgen receptor steroid binding domain are crucial for the intermolecular interaction necessary for receptor dimerization and function.

In these initial clinical studies, NAP monotherapy showed significant reductions in HBsAg levels among patients with chronic HBV, suggesting potential as part of future combination therapies.

This review discusses the molecular mechanisms by which oncogenic viruses contribute to cancer development through manipulation of host cellular functions and highlights the need for further research into virus-associated cancers, reporting no new results.

This review discusses the regulation of involucrin gene expression, focusing on transcription factors and signaling pathways, and reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses the clinical manifestations and immune response to Rhodococcus equi infection in foals but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers found that TCDD exposure accelerated differentiation and altered gene expression in human epidermal cells, indicating the epidermal barrier as a target of TCDD-activated AHR.

In this study, researchers found that the AIRE G961C variant is a significant risk factor for severe alopecia areata and early-onset cases, particularly in patients with alopecia universalis.

This study provides quantitative evidence that secondary syphilis is highly endemic in Cali, Colombia, and many untreated patients have high numbers of circulating Treponema pallidum spirochetes.

Zinc is vital for health, and its deficiency can worsen gastrointestinal and liver diseases.

This review discusses the commonly observed pathological findings in progeroid mouse models and highlights the importance of understanding mouse strain backgrounds and progeria-related phenotypes for accurate pathology data interpretation.

This study found that as few as 90 base pairs of the K5 promoter directed keratinocyte-preferred expression in stratified epithelia, especially in epidermis, hair follicles, and tongue, showing cell type specificity.
