This study reports that the loss of the protein Memo in mice leads to a reduced lifespan and suggests that Memo is a key regulator of FGFR signaling and vitamin D production.

This study describes the diverse histopathological patterns and clinical features observed in patients with folliculotropic mycosis fungoides, emphasizing the importance of accurate recognition to avoid diagnostic errors.

Folliculin slows hair growth, and blocking it might help treat hair loss.

This study engineered a bioluminescent yeast strain responsive to androgenic chemicals, demonstrating rapid and sensitive detection suitable for high-throughput screening and environmental monitoring.

In this research, geography was found to explain more variation in the human skin microbiome than skin type, while host genetics contributed unique microbial structures, highlighting their role in skin microbiome ecology through extensive genomic and metagenomic analyses in a diverse international cohort.

This review discusses the potential of solid-state fermentation for extracting polyphenolic compounds from agro-industrial wastes, but it reports no new experimental results.

This case report describes a man with Touraine-Solente-Golé syndrome who achieved substantial improvement of tufted hair folliculitis after treatment with amoxicillin, clavulanic acid, and topical nadifloxacin.

In this study, the researchers reported that chloramphenicol-loaded liposomes, particularly those incorporating deoxycholic acid, enhanced follicular uptake and showed strong antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, offering potential for treating MRSA-infected skin conditions with good skin biocompatibility and minimal toxicity.

This study found that maternal sub-maintenance nutrition reduced the density and branching ratio of secondary wool follicles in Merino sheep fetuses and identified genes potentially involved in these processes.

This report details a rare case of favus in Japan, identifying Trichophyton schoenleinii in a 63-year-old woman through DNA sequencing, who was successfully treated with oral terbinafine and topical luliconazole.

This study found that fibroblast growth factor 5 may enhance Cashmere goat hair growth by altering the expression of specific genes related to keratin and keratin-associated proteins.

Linalool in personal care products may worsen frontal fibrosing alopecia by damaging hair follicle stem cells and triggering harmful immune responses.

In this case study, a 70-year-old woman with generalized favus caused by Trichophyton schoenleinii achieved a clinical and mycological cure after a one-month terbinafine treatment.

This study reported three cases of tinea corporis caused by Microsporum canis in a household, linked to a domestic cat, where genetic analysis suggested a familial transmission route.

Researchers found an RNA transcript that might help control a growth factor linked to tumor development.

This study found that in a rat skin model, fat cells inhibited the proliferation of organoid hair follicle cells and fibroblasts but may have accelerated hair follicle cell differentiation.

This study reported that in a histopathologic analysis of five parenteral heroin users with candida folliculitis, candida and pseudohyphae were frequently found in association with hair follicles.

This study found that hydroxycinnamate derivatives, especially a compound named 10a, effectively inhibited SRD5A1 activity and protein expression in cell assays, suggesting potential for treating androgen-related conditions.

This case series examined five male burn patients who developed folliculitis barbae or pseudofolliculitis barbae, highlighting the underreported nature of these complications and the variability in treatment response. The authors call for standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols for these conditions in burn survivors.

This study identified significant differences in the fungal gut microbiota between melanoma and vitiligo patients compared to healthy controls and observed varying bacterial abundances associated with melanoma histopathology and vitiligo clinical parameters.

This study describes a method for isolating stem cells and keratinocytes from mouse hair follicles using FACS technology, facilitating the study of stem cell biology.

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 study observed that the cutaneous microbiome in psoriasis patients differs both qualitatively and quantitatively from healthy individuals, suggesting a potential link to psoriasis pathogenesis.

This study found that NFI-C plays a crucial role in the transition from the telogen to anagen phase of the hair follicle cycle, affecting hair growth initiation in mice.

This review article proposes a possible skin-gut-fibrosis axis, suggesting that gut microbial metabolites may influence the development of keloids and hypertrophic scars by affecting immune responses and fibrotic signaling pathways, although direct evidence in skin fibrosis remains limited.

In this review study, systemic isotretinoin emerged as the most effective treatment for dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, while biologics and JAK inhibitors showed promise for resistant cases, and procedural methods were used in severe stages; however, controlled studies are needed for developing clinical guidelines.

This study found that while Bioré pore strips effectively removed microcomedones and trichostatic bundles on the nose without causing irritation, they were less effective than cyanoacrylate extraction.

Capitate trichomes have more endoplasmic reticulum and vacuoles, while peltate trichomes have more plastids and larger subcuticular spaces.

This study found that bovine lactoferrin promotes hair growth in mice by enhancing dermal papilla cell proliferation through the Erk/Akt and Wnt signaling pathways.

In this study, tofacitinib showed promising efficacy and safety for biologic-naïve elderly patients with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis, achieving steroid-free remission and clinical response over 52 weeks.
