This case report describes a child with acrodermatitis enteropathica showing dramatic improvement with oral zinc therapy, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to prevent severe outcomes.

This study describes a newly identified mite species, Demodex zalophi, found on captive sea lions and highlights its unique traits, including being the first of its kind described in marine mammals.

This study observed that cathepsin L and transglutaminase 3 colocalize in the human hair bulb and nail matrix, suggesting their involvement in terminal differentiation within these epidermal appendages.

In this case report, adult-onset porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus improved with topical tazarotene treatment, as evidenced by dermatoscopic images.

This study found that testosterone and dihydrotestosterone inhibit the growth rates of hair bulb papilla cells and root sheath fibroblasts, especially at higher doses, while estradiol was ineffective.

In this study, the novel isoprenylcysteine analog SIG-1451 was shown to inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokine release in various cell-based assays relevant to allergic dermatitis, acting on targets such as IL-4 and IL-6 with potential anti-inflammatory benefits.

This report suggests that TCDD may alter human epidermal stem cell populations by upregulating c-Myc, potentially leading to increased stem cell turnover during chloracne development.

This research describes how hair follicles regulate skin immune cells and how disruption in certain signaling pathways can lead to skin dysbiosis and inflammation; it also highlights the role of macrophages in protecting against cellulitis in mice.

This review discusses the dual role of extracellular vesicles in the pathophysiology and treatment of atopic dermatitis but reports no new clinical results; future research should address standardization and safety challenges.

This study demonstrated that CD anisotropy effectively distinguishes between two polymorphs of finasteride with nearly identical electronic circular dichroism spectra, using imaging and simulated spectra to uncover unique signatures that traditional methods miss.

In this study, retinoic acid treatments induced glandular and feather formation in embryos by altering positional values and activating specific retinoic acid nuclear receptor gene expression.

In this study, blocking autophagy with 3-methyladenine significantly improved the survival of inner ear hair cells in a gentamicin-induced ototoxic mouse model.

Transamidases are present in the epidermis but their exact role is unclear.

This case report describes a 6.5-year-old girl with a balanced chromosome translocation involving chromosomes 1 and 6, linked to developmental speech delay and features suggestive of ectodermal dysplasia.

This study suggests that some keratin-associated proteins with antecedents found in non-haired animals may have roles beyond hair characteristics, possibly contributing to the evolution of hair follicles.

In this study, researchers engineered ventral skin organoids (vSkOs) with specific cellular compositions and signaling environments to generate human amnion-like tissues called Amnioids, offering new tools for studying human development and potential regenerative therapies.

This study found that all five toxic microelements analyzed were most prevalent in the Caspian thin-fingered gecko's bone and muscle tissues, suggesting their tolerance to these elements in polluted areas.

People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.

This study describes how avian-inspired imagery is used in dermatology to help clinicians and patients identify and communicate skin conditions, using familiar terms like "chicken skin" and "fried egg" to capture specific visual patterns and clinical features.

Mouse tail skin has different keratinization near hair follicles and scales.

This study found that patients with Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis exhibit lower levels and activity of DNase1, impairing NET degradation, and suggests DNase1 administration as a potential treatment.

This study found that ethionine significantly inhibited wool growth in sheep, with L- and D-isomers being equally effective, but did not cause hair loss in sucking mice or rats.

The researchers found that plant extracts from Papaver rhoeas L., Clitoria ternatea L., and Carthamus tinctorius L. are effective natural cosmetic dyes, offering intense and stable colors without cytotoxicity.

This article suggests targeting the water activity within pilosebaceous follicles using biocompatible solutes like xylose and sucrose as a new potential topical treatment for acne.

This article discusses the connection between product use, contact dermatitis, and frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no new findings; the authors emphasize the need for more research to improve patient outcomes.

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

This review discusses the role of nanocarrier systems, such as nanoemulsions and liposomes, in delivering antioxidants into the skin to counteract oxidative stress, highlighting recent advancements in topical antioxidant therapy through nanotechnology.

In this review, researchers discuss the role of epigenetic modifications in epidermal stem cells' decline during skin aging and identify potential interventions targeting these disruptions, suggesting significant possibilities for antiaging strategies and dermatological treatments.
