This study suggests that NFIB and STAT5 work together to control cell-specific genetic programs in mammalian tissues, particularly in mammary and hair follicle stem cells.

This study reviewed 38 cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, observing that diagnosis often occurs years after onset and is more prevalent in postmenopausal women.

This review highlights that Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide exhibits various bioactivities, such as antioxidant and immune-modulating effects, and explores its potential applications in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries.

This study found that fucoidan significantly inhibited lung cancer cell phenotypes while sparing normal cells and altered gene expression, suggesting its potential for lung cancer therapy.

This study identified significant gene expression differences in human basal cell carcinoma, including up-regulation of zinc finger encoding genes, which are not entirely reflected in current mouse models.

This study found that MF patients with darker skin types show slower initial improvement with NB-UVB phototherapy, highlighting disparities in treatment efficacy that warrant further investigation.

This study observed that combining high-potency steroids with pimecrolimus might effectively stabilize hairline recession in frontal fibrosing alopecia patients.

In this study, a novel DCAF17 gene mutation was identified in a Chinese family, suggesting a potential role in pancreatic β cell dysfunction and diabetes development in Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome.

This study found that horizontal sections of scalp biopsies in patients with Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia often reveal follicular miniaturization, inflammation, and scarring, which can guide personalized treatment.

This study investigated a unique frontal fibrosing alopecia-like presentation of alopecia areata, finding that patients experienced an insidious, chronic course with limited scalp hair regrowth, and showed a lower response to systemic corticosteroids compared to patchy alopecia areata.

This case report describes a 7-year-old boy with Tinea favosa caused by Trichophyton schoenleinii, treated for 8–12 weeks with oral griseofulvin and ketoconazole cream, leading to recovery from crusts and inflammation but permanent hair loss in some areas.

This study describes the process of isolating and analyzing multipotent stem cells from mouse hair follicles for potential use in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

This study evaluated the 308-nm excimer laser as an adjuvant treatment for frontal fibrosing alopecia and found it may stabilize hairline recession and improve erythema and perifollicular hyperkeratosis, with transient erythema as the only reported adverse effect.

This study reports a unique case of coinheritance of BRCA2 and CYLD pathogenic variants in a man with metastatic malignant cylindroma, suggesting that recognizing such genetic profiles in rare conditions can provide new treatment options, including the potential use of therapies targeting BRCA deficiency.

This case report identifies a previously undocumented nonsense mutation in DCAF17 in a Chinese patient with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, inherited from consanguineous parents.

This case study describes a cat co-infected with Demodex cati and feline immunodeficiency virus, showing initial treatment improvement followed by disease recurrence and eventual euthanasia.

This case study reports a 36-year-old man with KID syndrome caused by an N14Y GJB2 mutation, expanding the mutation spectrum of this condition in the Chinese population.

This report presents four new cases of follicular porokeratosis, which exhibit distinct histological features where the cornoid lamella are confined to the follicular ostia.

This report presents a case of IFAP syndrome with the typical symptoms of alopecia universalis, severe photophobia, and follicular ichthyosis, but provides no additional clinical findings or conclusions.

In this study, tebentafusp-tebn improved overall survival in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma compared to standard therapies, despite higher rates of significant adverse events.

This study found trichoscopy to be a highly sensitive, non-invasive method for diagnosing tinea capitis in children, which could be valuable in resource-limited settings lacking mycological culture facilities.

This report describes a novel mutation in the CDH3 gene in an 11-year-old Iranian boy with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, indicating a new genetic variant associated with the disorder.

This study demonstrated that tight junction barriers exist in human hair follicles but are less tight in hair follicle keratinocytes than in interfollicular keratinocytes, highlighting claudin-1's key role in follicle barrier function and growth.

In this study, researchers found that using the FUE method, performed by surgeons instead of technicians, allows for more precise follicular unit extraction than the traditional FUT method, potentially improving outcomes and donor area utilization in hair transplantation.

This study found that treating mouse epidermal neural crest stem cells with EGF and FGF2 increased their proliferation and enhanced their neuronal differentiation potential.

In this study, researchers reported that specific gene polymorphisms in Jiangnan cashmere goats, particularly SNPs in the HOXC13 and WNT4 genes, were significantly associated with key economic traits like birth weight and yearling weight, providing molecular markers for breeding and enhancing economic trait stability.

EF and PXE not closely related.

This study evaluated quercetin's potential as a treatment for cats with Feline Atopic Skin Syndrome, finding it significantly reduced clinical scores in certain symptom groups like Head-and-Neck Pruritus and Miliary Dermatitis, although improvements in oxidative stress markers were not clearly significant.

The researchers reported that human foreskin fibroblasts isolated by enzyme digestion method proliferated faster and were purified more quickly than those isolated by the inverted tissue culture method; additionally, post-psoralen photoactivation therapy moderately repaired UVB-induced damage in these fibroblasts, suggesting potential clinical applications.

This study identified the novel genetic variant rs143321413 within the EEF2K gene, which may play a role in the development of polycystic ovary syndrome.
