This review discusses how targeting TGF-β with specific inhibitors, including components from Traditional Chinese Medicine, may help reduce liver fibrosis by acting through various signaling pathways.

This study suggests that dermoscopy provides additional insights for diagnosing pattern alopecia in short coated dogs, beyond what is visible through standard dermatological examination.

In laboratory research, investigators found that apoptotic vesicles from interleukin-10-treated fibroblasts promote wound healing and reduce fibrotic scarring by enhancing mitochondrial function, modulating collagen composition, and inhibiting the Hedgehog signalling pathway, offering potential for regenerative medicine applications.

This review discusses the roles of dermal white adipose tissue in skin functions and pathology, underscoring its antibacterial activity and potential anti-fibrotic role, but reports no new experimental results.

This article provides an overview of how dermoscopy can aid in the noninvasive diagnosis of various general dermatological disorders, grouped by clinical presentation, but reports no new clinical results.
