This study found evidence that polythelia pilosa, previously excluded from classification, should be reintroduced as it marks true aberrant mammary structures in men and hirsute women.

The study concluded that all parts of the normal human Meibomian gland ductal system show signs of early keratinisation, supporting the idea that these glands are akin to "hair follicles without a hair shaft.

The researchers reported that minor salivary gland stem cells exhibit stem cell characteristics and respond to tobacco-derived carcinogens, implicating the transforming growth factor beta pathway in their maintenance.

This study investigated the interdigital glands in sheep, highlighting their apocrine sweat glands' ultrastructural characteristics and positive lectin reaction, but reported no new clinical results.

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 SSEA-4 is a marker that distinguishes eccrine from apocrine ductal cells in human sweat glands, suggesting its potential use in diagnostic applications.

This study found that the Meibomian gland shares structural and cytokeratin composition similarities with hair follicles, and plays a role in hyper-keratinisation observed in obstructive Meibomian gland dysfunction.

This study found that α-tocopheryl acetate is well absorbed through healthy skin, with absorption occurring through specific pathways and showing high affinity for small blood vessels.

This article discusses the multifactorial etiopathogenesis of acne vulgaris, highlighting the roles of sebum production, keratosis, bacterial development, and inflammatory mediators, but reports no new clinical results.

This review summarizes recent multidisciplinary advances in sebaceous gland research and highlights potential novel therapeutic strategies for skin diseases, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that severe zinc deficiency induced in weanling rats led to growth retardation, hair issues, and dermal lesions, all of which were completely reversed by zinc supplementation.

This study demonstrates that bioengineered lacrimal gland germs can successfully develop and restore tear production and ocular surface protection in a mouse model with lacrimal gland dysfunction.

This study found that telocytes are present in the human dermis, suggesting a potential role in skin homeostasis, remodeling, regeneration, and repair.

This study demonstrates that bioengineered salivary gland transplants can fully regenerate gland function, producing saliva and restoring normal swallowing in salivary gland-defective mice, offering potential for xerostomia treatment.

This review discusses hidradenitis suppurativa's pathogenesis, including its inflammatory nature and the role of smoking as a triggering factor, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that while both natural and bioengineered salivary glands showed similar protein concentrations in response to taste stimulation, their protein compositions and amylase concentrations differed, which may affect nerve signal balance.

This article discusses the minimal research on hair growth physiology and highlights Dr. Masumi Inaba's contributions to understanding androgenetic alopecia, but reports no new experimental results.

This chapter reviews classic regeneration models in planarian worms and amphibian limbs, focusing on the role of stem cells, and reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the role of steroid 5 alpha reductase 2 in converting testosterone to DHT and its association with conditions like benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer; it reports no new results.

This study describes the enzymatic processes through which DHEA is converted to active sex steroids in human skin, highlighting an androgenic effect on sebaceous glands and estrogenic effects in the vagina.

This study found that overexpression of the mineralocorticoid receptor in a mouse model led to premature epidermal barrier development, keratinocyte apoptosis, and postnatal alopecia, indicating new roles for MR signaling in skin physiology.

This article explains the structure and multifunctional roles of the human skin, including its protective, regulatory, and sensory functions, but does not report new research findings.

This article discusses the common dermatological issues in adolescence linked to hormone fluctuations, such as acne and excessive sweating, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that a serum-free DMEM-F12 medium with 45% oxygen best supports in vitro development and differentiation of human fetal skin, closely mimicking the in vivo state.

This study found that telocytes in human scalp tissue were located around hair follicles and glands and may be involved in skin regeneration and homeostasis.

This report highlights a case where a woman's use of the dopamine agonist pramipexole for Parkinson's disease was associated with hair loss, which improved after discontinuing the drug.

This study found that Brandt's hedgehog has the thickest skin on its back and the thinnest on the cloacal region, with sebaceous and sweat glands primarily located in the nostril area.

This article reviews historical approaches to electrolysis for permanent hair removal and suggests improvements in equipment, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that CD99 is strongly expressed in the basal cells and hair follicles of normal adult and developing fetal skin, with expression patterns becoming similar after 20 weeks of gestation.

This book reviews the various types of acne and acneiform conditions, as well as their treatment options, with expert insights from multiple fields.
