This study found that TRPV3 activation in human sebocytes inhibits lipid synthesis and triggers proinflammatory cytokine expression, suggesting a role in the pathogenesis of dry skin-associated inflammatory dermatoses.

This study found that men with androgenetic alopecia had significantly higher rates of dry eye symptoms and meibomian gland dysfunction compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential link between the condition and these ocular issues.

This study found that applying a dutasteride-loaded liposome formulation to damp rat skin nearly doubled the drug's follicular accumulation compared to dry skin, suggesting scalp hydration status may significantly impact the drug's topical delivery, especially in follicle-rich areas.

This study observed that skin dryness does not seem to indicate impaired epidermal barrier function, as there was no negative correlation between stratum corneum water content and transepidermal water loss.

In this study, primary cilia were found to contribute to meibomian gland enlargement and lipid production, though they are not necessary for normal gland development.

This study found that in genetically diabetic mice, supplementation with safflower or evening primrose oil prevented the decrease in certain fatty acids and improved skin conditions, but increased plasma glucose levels.

This article discusses a report on reversible alopecia associated with fluconazole therapy and mentions other possible causes of hair loss but presents no new findings.

In this study, the authors suggest that patient safety with isotretinoin in Palestine can be improved by adapting pharmacy and medical practice protocols to better educate patients and ensure adherence to safety monitoring and laboratory ordering.

In this study, common side effects of isotretinoin, including dry lips, mucous membrane dryness, tiredness, and mood changes, were frequently reported among Polish patients, though their severity was usually mild.

This case report describes an 8-year-old boy in Saudi Arabia diagnosed with IFAP syndrome, highlighting its distinct characteristics and distinguishing features from similar conditions, and notes successful genetic confirmation of the disorder.

This article discusses the potential health risks associated with long-term use of finasteride and dutasteride for prostate and hair loss treatments, suggesting risks may include non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and other metabolic issues.

This review details various skin manifestations linked to different endocrine disorders but does not report any new clinical results.

This review synthesizes information on isotretinoin’s systemic toxicity, emphasizing that its adverse effects, including mucocutaneous, hepatic, and musculoskeletal reactions, primarily reflect its pharmacodynamic actions and are generally manageable with individualized dosing and monitoring, though its teratogenicity remains a significant safety concern.

In this study, isotretinoin treatment for acne vulgaris was associated with changes in plasma phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, and zinc levels, potentially affecting kidney function and contributing to side effects like fatigue and dry skin.

This review summarized multiple molecular markers studied for their association with dry skin, finding considerable variability and uncertainty about which markers best indicate xerosis cutis.

This study suggests that minoxidil may improve hypotrichosis in patients with ARWH due to LIPH variants, but a possible genetic factor could affect its efficacy within families.

In this review paper, the authors explored the composition and role of lipids in human hair, highlighting their importance for hair texture, moisture retention, and tensile strength, while noting that the understanding of hair lipids' functions remains controversial and requires further research.

Dark skin has stronger barriers and structure due to specific gene activity.

This study suggests that enhancing endocannabinoid tone with an EMT-inhibitor may have anti-inflammatory effects and slightly increase sebaceous lipid production, which could be beneficial for dry skin conditions.

This paper reviews the diverse skin, nail, and hair changes caused by medications, highlighting hyperpigmentation, alopecia, and nail structural alterations, but reports no new data.

This study observed that injecting minimally cross-linked hyaluronic acid with PDO smooth threads in female patients with dry, cracked lips led to significant improvements in lip texture, elasticity, and reduced fissure depth, effects that lasted up to nine months with additional booster injections.

This article discusses the benefits of liposomes in cosmetic formulations, including enhanced hydration and protection for dry skin, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that specific TRPM5 modulators are unlikely to directly affect sebaceous glands, but safe TPPO analogues may provide moderate lipogenic and anti-inflammatory effects beneficial for dry skin conditions.

This study found that Roux-en-Y gastric bypass was effective in significant weight loss and improved lipid profiles in obese women during the first postoperative year, though some experienced alopecia, asthenia, dry skin, and cramps.

This study found that ginger supplementation significantly improved persistent hypothyroid symptoms and may aid in weight and lipid profile management in hypothyroid patients with normal TSH levels.

This source discusses ichthyosis, a disorder causing dry, scaly skin, by exploring its genetic causes, potential systemic associations, and treatments, and correlates modern medical insights with Unani medicine principles focused on humoral balance and holistic care.

In a randomized clinical trial presented in this study, a novel lip hydrant with polyherbal extracts significantly reduced lip roughness and chapped lips compared to petroleum gel over 28 days among Thai participants, although both treatments improved perceived lip dryness.

This study found that Cidea is critical for regulating lipid storage and sebum secretion in sebaceous glands, with its deficiency causing hair issues and impaired skin functions in mice.

This study found that red light exposure significantly enhanced the growth, phytochemical content, and therapeutic potential of Eclipta alba callus cultures compared to other multispectral light exposures.

This article discusses the potential association between the use of hair oils and the exacerbation of seborrheic dermatitis in black patients, suggesting more research is needed to understand their impact.
