This study observed that feeding ewes a water-soluble complex of fatty acids increased primary hair follicle bulb diameter and mitotic activity, suggesting a positive correlation with wool growth.

This study found that methyl nonanoate and methyl caprate significantly enhanced the skin penetration of minoxidil compared to solutions with other common enhancers like Azone, DMSO, or DEET.

This study classified scars in discoid lupus erythematosus patients into six types based on anatomical location and morphology, suggesting early identification might influence more aggressive treatment strategies.

This article examines the role and composition of integral hair lipids in forming a protective barrier similar to the skin's epidermal lipid layer and reports no new findings about their effects.

This study reports that the fatty acid composition in cell membranes of stratified squamous epithelium varies with keratinization patterns, showing a partial essential fatty acid-deficient state in cultured keratinocytes.

This research abstract provides no results, focusing on the equal contributions of the authors in the field of molecular, cellular, and developmental biology from Yale University.

This review discusses the role of acyl-CoA binding protein (ACBP) in the epidermal barrier, noting that its disruption in mice is linked to skin and fur abnormalities; it reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that the synthetic peptide SPIKENET (SPK) may protect against long-term skin alterations in mice following coronavirus infection, offering potential therapeutic intervention for similar effects in humans post-COVID-19.

In this study, six-week-old male mice showed significantly increased hair regrowth rates and higher expression of hair growth-related factors when treated for 22 days with Lactobacillus strains and fermented Korean berry, suggesting these could be potential promoters of hair growth via gut microbiome regulation.

The study concluded that fatty acid transport protein 4 in epidermal keratinocytes is crucial for maintaining normal skin structure, as its deficiency led to hyperkeratosis and epidermal barrier disruption in mice.

This study identified an unexpected critical role for the FATP4 protein in skin and hair development in mice, linking it to a potential candidate gene for restrictive dermopathy in humans.

This review discusses dermal white adipose tissue's roles in skin immunity, highlighting its antimicrobial function and interactions with other immune cells, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, knockout mice lacking the Cyp4f39 gene showed severe skin barrier dysfunction and high early mortality, suggesting its critical role in skin barrier formation and insights into ichthyosis pathogenesis.

This review explores the role of fatty acids and bioactive lipid mediators in skin health and suggests targeting this metabolic network to control inflammation and improve skin conditions, but it reports no new findings.

In this study, researchers observed that Malassezia species show different lipid metabolism and growth patterns depending on pH, with slightly acidic conditions promoting beneficial lipid bio-conversion for skin health, while neutral pH resulted in lower growth and lipid content, potentially negatively impacting the skin.

This review summarizes current knowledge on tight junctions in mammalian skin and their role in drug delivery and interaction with other barrier components, but reports no new experimental results.

The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.

This review outlines the histological structures of the skin, highlighting species and regional differences in dermal absorption and obstacles encountered in toxicological assessments due to epidermal thickness variability, contact dermatitis reactions, and stem cell vulnerabilities.

This study found that the progression of fetal skin development, marked by key features like the appearance of hair follicles and eccrine sweat glands, can help determine fetal age and predict congenital skin diseases.

This study found that combining optical clearing methods with light-sheet fluorescence microscopy allows detailed 3D visualization of normal and pathological human skin biopsies, revealing differences in epidermal thickness and volume.

This study suggests that gel containing OSF3 loaded in niosomes offers high transfollicular penetration for topical anti-androgenic alopecia treatment with minimal systemic effect.

In this study on C57BL/6 mice, researchers found that cadmium chloride exposure led to metabolic disruption, accelerated skin aging, and impaired hair regeneration, with more severe effects observed at higher doses.

In this study, periodic exposure to red light in aged mice led to increased histone acetylation and activated mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation, which collectively mitigated cellular aging by modulating metabolism, inflammation, and gene expression.

This chapter discusses the skin stem cell niche as a complex ecosystem and highlights the diverse components and interactions that influence stem cell function, but it reports no new experimental results.

This chapter discusses the structure and function of the skin, detailing its protective roles and the layers that comprise it, but reports no new research findings.

This study explored the molecular biology of skin adaptations in pangolins, revealing that certain genes for lipid synthesis have inactive patterns, while others related to skin function remain intact, suggesting complex evolutionary changes in their skin physiology.

This study investigated pangolin skin genetics, finding that while sweat gland-related genes are not inactivated, several genes related to sebaceous gland function are, which highlights complex evolutionary adaptations in mammalian skin.

The document concludes that the skin is a complex organ providing protection, sensation, and healing, with challenges in treating conditions like itchiness.

This source discusses using stratum corneum ablation as a promising method to enhance transdermal drug delivery by temporarily removing the skin's outermost barrier to improve medication absorption.

This chapter reviews the skin's structure and its clinical relevance, highlighting connective tissue diseases and the potential for novel treatments like protein, cell, or stem cell transfer, but reports no new findings.
