In this study, ultradeformable liposomes containing Tween 20 or terpenes increased phospholipid bilayer fluidity and enhanced skin penetration of sodium fluorescein, with terpenes improving hair follicle penetration.

In this case report, a 28-year-old male with alopecia areata experienced successful hair growth following follicular unit extraction (FUE), with no recurrence observed over a 1-year follow-up.

This study reports promising results for alopecia universalis treatment using a combination of systemic methotrexate and low-dose corticosteroids with topical minoxidil, though monitoring for side effects is necessary.

This study discusses two cases of acneiform skin eruptions associated with the use of the EGFR inhibitor ZD1839 in prostate cancer treatment, emphasizing the need for dermatologists to be aware of potential skin reactions.

This book chapter reviews the regulatory frameworks for natural products used as cosmeceuticals across various countries, noting that major markets like the EU and USA influence emerging markets such as Japan, China, and India, which are now establishing or updating their own regulations.

This case report describes a novel association between uncombable hair syndrome and Zellweger syndrome due to a homozygous mutation in the PEX12 gene.

This report presents a 12-year-old male with symptoms indicative of Marie-Unna type hereditary hypotrichosis, characterized by a specific pattern of hair loss evolving with age.

This study found that in Arabidopsis, the MYB30-EIN3 module plays a role in adapting root hair development to phosphate deficiency, potentially enhancing phosphate uptake from soil.

This study found that topical alpha-terthienyl combined with UVA radiation rapidly induced dose-dependent cutaneous photosensitization in guinea pigs, suggesting potential for photochemotherapy in skin disorders without future carcinogenic risks.

In this study, researchers found that the histone demethylase UTX is crucial for regulating skin differentiation through retinoic acid signaling, mainly impacting females, as males compensate with a Y-linked paralog.

This chapter covers various dermatological drugs, cosmetics, and topical agents, focusing on the properties and uses of propolis, but does not present new clinical findings.

This study found that an anti-atopic lotion containing fucoidan helped heal skin damage in hairless mice with atopic dermatitis by reducing skin thickness and modulating immune responses.
