Ixekizumab is effective and safe for patients who did not improve with etanercept treatment for psoriasis.

This study demonstrated immunological cross-reactivity between mycobacterial heat-shock protein 65 and human epidermal cytokeratin 1/2, suggesting that this cross-reactive epitope might play a role in skin diseases.

In this study, immobilized VEGF selectively captured endothelial cells under various shear stresses, suggesting its potential for promoting endothelialization in vascular grafts or implanted tissues.

This study found that GnRH-a treatment or orchiectomy, which required significantly lower doses of oral estradiol valerate, were more effective than anti-androgens like spironolactone and finasteride in achieving target hormone levels in transgender females in India.

This study concluded that adding a topical agent to intense pulsed light therapy significantly improved hair reduction and patient satisfaction in Pakistani women with idiopathic facial hirsutism compared to light therapy alone, without increasing adverse effects.

This study introduced a volar skin excisional wound model that closely mirrors human wound healing and supports evaluation of skin regeneration with multiple appendages and innervation.

This study reports that variation in the ovine TCHH gene may influence wool fibre curvature, with specific gene variants affecting the mean fibre curvature in sheep.

This report describes two cases where a viral vector COVID-19 vaccine was associated with the recurrence of cutaneous lymphoma conditions that had been in remission.

This article reviews the genetic mutations associated with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the roles of EDA gene isoforms and related receptors.

In this study, TC-1 cells, resembling stromal cells formed by epithelial-mesenchymal transition, significantly affected the behavior of normal human keratinocytes, supporting the role of stromal cells in tumor progression.

In this study, Mononuclear Cells provided site-specific protection against chemotherapy-induced alopecia in rats treated with Ara-C, but not with CTX or VP-16, while PRP showed no protective effect.

In this laboratory study, researchers observed that mouse vascular endothelial cells exhibit dynamic changes after exposure to ionizing radiation, including a transient endothelial subpopulation that facilitates vascular-epidermal communication and skin repair, with shifting roles in angiogenesis and immune surveillance over time.

In this study, the misshaped and hairy ear phenotype in mutant mice was linked to mis-expression of certain Hoxc genes due to a chromosomal inversion.

This study found that Merkel cell carcinoma recurrence risk peaks within the first two years after diagnosis and varies significantly by stage, with immune suppression, age, and male sex also influencing risk.

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

This study found that the new HCC additive enhances the permeation of pigments and active ingredients into hair, suggesting potential use in developing functional cosmetic hair products.

In this study, diode laser treatment showed greater efficacy in reducing facial hair and increasing satisfaction among hirsutism patients with normal levels of DHEAS and DHT, compared to those with deranged levels, although some benefits were observed across both groups.

This study suggests elevated homocysteine levels may serve as a biomarker for disease severity and vascular risk in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, indicating potential therapeutic benefits from B-vitamin supplementation and lifestyle changes.

This study found that patients taking hydroxychloroquine had a significantly higher likelihood of indeterminate QuantiFERON-TB Gold test results compared to those not on the medication, independent of other immunosuppressive drug use.

This case report highlights the importance of trans-esophageal echocardiography in distinguishing Libman-Sacks endocarditis from infective endocarditis in systemic lupus erythematosus patients, guiding appropriate treatment for associated cerebrovascular disease.

This article suggests that alopecia areata may be an early skin manifestation of hereditary hemochromatosis in individuals predisposed to autoimmunity, recommending iron status evaluation during AA diagnosis; it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, 150 kHz electromagnetic radiation reduced the number and size of follicular cysts in a rat model of polycystic ovary syndrome without causing significant morphological damage to developing follicles.

In this cell study, Eclipta alba extract inhibited cancer cell proliferation and induced apoptosis, showing potential antiproliferative and anti-metastasis effects on liver and related cancer cell lines.

This case report describes a 52-year-old woman with erythema annulare centrifugum after using topical luliconazole and oral itraconazole, suggesting a drug-induced reaction confirmed by a positive rechallenge test.

The researchers reported a case of a 51-year-old woman with primary hypothyroidism who developed anaphylaxis to intravenous levothyroxine after being unresponsive to oral formulations, highlighting potential allergic reactions to IV treatments in such patients.

In this study, researchers reported that the activation of EDA2R by p53 leads to p53-dependent cell death in cancer cells and is involved in chemotherapy-induced hair loss.

This study identifies a likely pathogenic homozygous missense variant in the AEBP1 gene in a patient with symptoms of classical Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, suggesting new perspectives for EDS classification and research.
