This case report highlights the diagnostic challenge of inverted follicular keratosis, emphasizing the importance of histopathology for accurate differentiation from malignancies.

This study describes a system called FOLLYSIS©, which uses mathematics and image analysis to optimize Follicular Unit Extraction hair transplants, showing high accuracy in measuring donor area density and reducing donor site injury.

This study found that topical application of FK506 stimulated hair growth in animals, which may occur independently of its immunosuppressive effects, though its effect on human hair growth remains unclear.

This study demonstrated that an ethanol extract of Connarus semidecandrus Jack showed potential anti-androgenic alopecia effects in a testosterone-induced model, suggesting a possible treatment option for hair loss.

This study reports that high-frequency ultrasound can characterize frontal fibrosing alopecia by assessing dermal atrophy, hair follicle changes, and subclinical inflammation.

This study found that phenyl-imidazole sulfonamide derivatives, particularly ISCK03, inhibited c-kit signaling and promoted depigmentation in various experimental settings, suggesting potential use as skin-whitening agents.

This study found that a microneedle array patch using a blend of kangfuxin, chitosan, and fucoidan significantly accelerated wound healing in rats by enhancing epithelial thickness and collagen deposition.

This study reports the cloning and expression details of two new human type II keratins, K6irs3 and K6irs4, in the hair follicle's inner root sheath, suggesting a distinct functional role related to hair structure.

This case report describes a woman diagnosed with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome whose gastrointestinal symptoms and alopecia improved significantly after systemic prednisone treatment, with no recurrence four years after a second treatment course.

This study describes two Danish cases of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome presenting with malnutrition and gastrointestinal issues; both patients underwent successful treatment and remission after developing colonic adenocarcinomas.

In this study, KC-AD-MSCs were found to increase COL7 deposition and anchoring fibril formation at the dermal-epidermal junction in a RDEB mouse model, suggesting potential for improving skin integrity in recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa patients.

This study observed that dermoscopy is a useful technique for distinguishing between infundibular keratinising acanthoma and follicular cysts in dogs, with specific dermoscopic features noted for each.

This study found that stimulating the olfactory receptor OR2A4/7 with cyclohexyl salicylate promoted human hair growth and increased progeny of hair follicle epithelial stem cells in an ex vivo setting.

This study used Cisd2 knockout mice models and found that these mice display premature aging characteristics and an increase in dysfunctional neutrophils, suggesting Cisd2's role in calcium homeostasis and neutrophil function via interactions with Calnexin and SERCA.

The researchers reported increased ubiquitination of proteins such as the insulin receptor in CYLD cutaneous syndrome skin tumors, suggesting that CYLD dysfunction may affect protein secretion and signaling processes.

In patients undergoing treatment with capecitabine for colon cancer and metastatic breast cancer, this study observed that hand-foot syndrome occurred more frequently than with intravenous 5-FU, but other side effects were less common.

This study used fibre optic confocal imaging to visualize subsurface structures in live mouse skin, revealing cellular details and blood vessel networks that dynamic events could be studied in vivo.

In this laboratory study, Camellia japonica fruit shell extract showed potential to mitigate hair loss by promoting hair cell growth and reducing harmful effects of DHT and oxidative stress.

This study found that reduced cytokinin levels allow plants to adapt to low potassium conditions by enhancing root hair growth, reactive oxygen species accumulation, and expression of a key potassium transporter gene.

This review explores the role of hair follicle dermal stem cells in skin regeneration and restorative therapies, but it reports no new experimental results.

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 study suggests that Keratin 6hf may be a potential marker of oral squamous cell carcinoma and could play a role in its progression, though further research is needed to understand its function.

This article reports no new clinical results and reviews a case of scarring alopecia in conjunction with Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease.

This research suggests that hair keratins evolved from claw keratins in a hairless ancestor, with Hoxc13 controlling their expression in tetrapods, evidenced by the knockout of Hoxc13 hindering claw formation in Xenopus tropicalis frogs.

This review discusses the role of keratinocytes in hidradenitis suppurativa, highlighting their genetic and metabolic influences on disease progression without presenting new clinical results.

This case report describes the first known occurrence of keratosis follicularis squamosa with unilateral distribution in China, suggesting a potential new clinical subtype of the condition.

CCCA may be a fibroproliferative disorder, and anti-fibrotic therapies could help.

This commentary explores the role of PCSK9 as a target for drug development, underscoring that individuals with PCSK9 loss-of-function mutations experience significantly lowered LDL cholesterol levels and reduced coronary events, suggesting that full inactivation of PCSK9 is effective and safe.
