In this study, researchers identified a recurrent nonsense mutation, c.409C>T (p.Arg137*), in the COL7A1 gene through whole exome sequencing in a family with autosomal recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, demonstrating the importance of this method for diagnosing genetically complex conditions.

This study found that increasing En1 expression in mouse epidermis can convert cutaneous appendages to eccrine sweat glands, suggesting a role for En1 in eccrine gland development.

This study reported that eflornithine cream, when used with laser hair removal, leads to faster reduction of unwanted facial hair in women and is similarly safe compared to the cream alone.

This case report describes three instances of eosinophilic pustular folliculitis lacking visible pustules, which histopathology confirmed involve eosinophilic infiltration around hair follicles.

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.

Pre-existing skin conditions and drug reactions are the main causes of exfoliative erythroderma.

FUE hair transplants have improved to give more natural results with less scarring and pain.

The study reports that the AVET system showed higher efficiency in transfecting cultured human keratinocytes compared to SuperFect and PrimeFector, with AVET reaching levels of enzyme activity similar to normal cells in keratinocytes from lamellar ichthyosis patients.

This review discusses the therapeutic potential and safety of bioidentical recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) for various skin and mucosa conditions and reports no new clinical results.

Repetin is a protein involved in skin and hair development, binding calcium and compensating for other proteins when needed.

This study found that twice-daily intradermal injections of mouse epidermal growth factor in Merino sheep resulted in dose-dependent changes in wool follicles and fibres, including induction of catagen and subsequent regeneration.

This study found that the guided SEFFI technique for facial volume restoration and anti-aging is minimally invasive with a low complication rate, suggesting it as a promising treatment option.

This article introduces the Follicular Unit Excision-Linear Ellipse (FUE-LE) technique, which integrates both FUE and the linear ellipse method for optimal hair restoration, but presents no new clinical results.

This study reports that EGF at specific concentrations promotes the proliferation and migration of hair follicle ORS cells by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in vitro.

In this study, researchers found that two dominant haplotypes in the EDA2R/AR intergenic region have likely been shaped by demographic changes and selection during human evolution, particularly notable in African and non-African populations.

Telogen effluvium causes sudden hair loss, often due to stress or changes, and is treated by addressing the cause and offering support.

In this study, the alcoholic extract of Eclipta alba demonstrated significant anticancer activity in vitro by inducing apoptosis in breast cancer cell lines and showed strong antioxidant properties.

This study found that fibroblast growth factors exhibit significant expression differences in the skin of rodents and primates, which may be linked to their evolutionary and environmental adaptations.

This study successfully established Tsc2-deficient embryonic stem cells from Eker rats and found these cells have distinct gene expression compared to non-mutant cells, which could help identify new therapeutic targets for TSC-related pathogenesis.

This review discusses the role of epidermal differentiation complex genes and epigenetic mechanisms in skin development and certain diseases, emphasizing their potential for improving drug development and delivery systems but provides no new experimental results.

Specific cross-linkages help make hair proteins stable and strong.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had higher serum levels of EGF compared to healthy controls, suggesting EGF's involvement in the condition's pathogenesis.

This study found that endogenous EGF may facilitate the healing of second-degree scald wounds in mice through autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine mechanisms.

This study suggests that testosterone therapy in AFAB individuals may modify the methylation of the ESR2 promoter, with changes influenced by factors like total testosterone levels and age.

This case report identified dystrophic anagen effluvium as a previously unreported dermatological side effect of PEG-INF-α-2a/RBV combination therapy in a patient with chronic hepatitis C infection.

This study found that epidermolysis bullosa simplex keratinocytes had impaired mitochondrial activity and more dispersed mitochondrial distribution compared to normal human keratinocytes.

This study reported that structure-guided engineering of CYP154C2 mutants significantly improved the 2α-hydroxylation of androstenedione and testosterone, with enhanced conversion efficiency and substrate selectivity compared to the wild-type enzyme.

This study found that super-enhancers in squamous cell carcinoma stem cells are distinctly different from those in normal skin stem cells, with ETS2 playing a crucial role in promoting tumor growth.

This study identified that disrupting Mef2c in dermal papilla cells delays the early stages of hair cycle catagen in mice, revealing potential interactions with Sox18 in regulating hair growth.
