This study found that neprilysin (NEP) activity and expression play a significant role in regulating the hair cycle in rats, with a specific inhibitor suppressing hair growth in mice.

A man with a rare skin condition and a new gene mutation developed high calcium levels due to his treatment.

The researchers reported that applying proteolytic enzymes to mice skin negatively affected hair follicles, leading to degeneration and potential impairment of stem cells from the bulge area.

This article discusses a historical case of a rare skin disorder involving alopecia and follicular plugs reported in 1907; it presents no new findings.

This report details a case of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa in a 37-year-old male with a recessive mutation in the CLO7A1 gene, affecting type VII collagen.

This case study reports a female adult patient with annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma on the scalp, observed through dermoscopy showing multiple yellowish/orange follicular dots against an erythemato-whitish background.

The authors concluded that low energy laser therapy may serve as a useful complementary treatment for skin diseases such as lichen planus, infectious finger pulpits, scalp alopecia, and crural ulcers.

In this study, a psoriatic patient developed retinoid-induced granulation tissue after long-term oral etretinate therapy, suggesting prolonged use may lead to delayed wound healing.

This review discusses stem cell therapy as a promising treatment for epidermolysis bullosa, highlighting preliminary successes in treating skin lesions but noting the need for further research on effectiveness and safety.

In this case report, an elderly woman with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp showed complete closure of eroded areas after treatment with prednisone and topical tacrolimus, resulting in stable scarring alopecia.

This report describes a rare case of Trichostasis Spinulosa on the heel, an uncommon location for this type of lesion.

This study identified 15 Iranian patients with PLEC variants linked to various plectinopathies and highlighted a novel association between a homozygous nonsense variant in PLEC and a rare combination of disorders including EB pruriginosa, muscular dystrophy, and congenital myasthenic syndrome.

This case report describes a 19-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus and telogen effluvium, who experienced new hair growth and increased hair density after 90 days of treatment with 2% topical minoxidil and oral keratin-based antioxidants.

This study reports two cases of erlotinib-induced erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in patients with non-small cell lung cancer, emphasizing the need for dermatological monitoring during EGFR inhibitor therapy.

This study found that matriptase, a membrane serine protease, is crucial for maintaining multiple types of epithelial tissues in mice, with its absence leading to severe organ dysfunction and increased permeability.

This case study reports that pancreatic enzyme replacement and fatty acid supplementation improved symptoms of fat malabsorption and essential fatty acid deficiency in a patient with EDS-4.

This review highlights promising recent advances in therapies for epidermolysis bullosa, including gene therapy and stem cell approaches, but reports no definitive cures and emphasizes the need for further research.

In this study, researchers re-evaluated biopsies from elderly patients with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp and identified plasma cell and lymphocyte infiltrates as key histological indicators for diagnosis, observing that high-potency topical steroids effectively healed the lesions.

This case report describes an atypical presentation of eruptive vellus hair cysts on the elbows, where standard diagnostic techniques were unreliable due to the loss of cystic structural integrity.

In this study, researchers found histopathological similarities between L-tryptophan eosinophilic myalgia syndrome and idiopathic eosinophilic fasciitis, with certain unique inflammatory features present in the former.

A bull with a gene mutation was asymptomatic, synthetic retinoids cause hair loss, and new therapeutic targets were identified for skin diseases.

This correspondence reports that using cantharidin on warts can result in lymphangitis, and dermatologists should consider all potential complications of treatments.

This paper provides a comprehensive list of drugs including Ethamolin, Placidyl, Trecator-SC, Zarontin, Peganone, Didronel, and Lodine, detailing their indications, potential interactions, and reported adverse skin reactions, but it presents no new research findings.

This research abstract outlines the innovative approach of the Frontiers journal series, which aims to transform academic publishing by providing open access, interdisciplinary journals that employ a rigorous peer-review process to serve both scholarly communities and the public.

This study observed that erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in elderly patients was effectively treated with high-potency topical steroids, with plasma and lymphocyte dermal infiltrates helping to confirm diagnosis.

Hair fibers break by cuticle cell slipping, shape changing, cuticle fraying, and surface cracking when stretched under specific conditions.

In this study, around 1% of proteins in skin fibroblasts significantly changed in response to reductive stress, affecting collagens and MAPK signaling pathways.

This study suggests that β-Catenin and extracellular matrix components interact in a regulatory loop to influence fibroblast behavior and wound repair properties in dermal tissue.

This study found that ALKBH5 plays a critical role in wound re-epithelialization by enhancing the stability of PELI2 mRNA, and its absence delays wound healing. Supplementation with PELI2 can partially rescue this delay, pointing to potential new therapies for stubborn wounds.
