This case report describes a 66-year-old woman diagnosed with porphyria cutanea tarda, characterized by painless vesicular lesions on sun-exposed areas and associated with hemochromatosis, and managed effectively with phlebotomy.

This article describes Amy Senior's evolving views on the Joint Council for Cosmetic Practitioners and reports no new research findings.

This article discusses the composition and function of the dermal papilla in hair follicles, focusing on its role in hair shaft generation and suggesting that cell loss in this area may contribute to hair loss.

This study found that the PSEN1-P242LfsX11 mutation in hidradenitis suppurativa influences cytokine and chemokine expression in macrophages, potentially affecting inflammatory responses.

In this report, a 22-year-old woman with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency underwent treatment with hydrocortisone and spironolactone, followed by feminization surgery, which subsequently led to the development of secondary sexual characteristics and regular menstruation.

This study found strong evidence linking a keratin gene anomaly to pachyonychia congenita, supporting its role in affecting skin, nails, hair, and mucosa.

This study shows that measuring 17-hydroxyprogesterone concentrations in scalp hair may be a useful noninvasive tool for monitoring treatment in adults with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This report describes a Cronkhite-Canada syndrome patient with severe sepsis and disseminated intravascular coagulation successfully treated using combined therapies, including recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin.

This review provides an overview of the hairless gene in mice and humans, discussing its structure, expression, and implications for understanding skin physiology and human disorders related to gene disruption, but it reports no new empirical findings.

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 case series observed a potential familial link in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA), suggesting a genetic predisposition that may be worsened by hair grooming practices.

This review discusses the clinical features of hypopigmented mycosis fungoides in primary cutaneous T cell lymphoma and reports no new clinical results.

This case report highlights the association of three CX26 gene mutations, particularly the D50N mutation, with keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome and its potential role in scalp squamous cell carcinoma and breast cancer development in a patient.

This research found that inhibiting HSP90 in a murine model increased cellular plasticity, suggesting a potential role for HSP90 in cancer progression through enhanced adaptability to stress.

This case report describes a 78-year-old male with adenocarcinoma and Hypertrichosis lanuginosa acquisita, highlighting the need to consider malignancy in patients with unexplained excessive hair growth.

The researchers reported that in mice, the type of tumor suppressor deleted along with oncogenic Kras activation in HFSCs influenced the specific squamous cell carcinoma phenotype that developed.

The study found that IPI-926 was well tolerated up to 160 mg once daily for 28-day cycles and showed activity as a single-agent treatment in Hedgehog pathway inhibitor-naïve patients with basal cell carcinoma.

In this study, researchers found that basal cell carcinomas with common Hedgehog signaling mutations may require additional mutations to hyperactivate downstream signaling and progress beyond dormancy.

This study found that while female college students had higher awareness and knowledge of PCOS than males, overall awareness of idiopathic intracranial hypertension was low, revealing significant gaps in healthcare education and access for these conditions.

In this study, manual cold capping was found to be effective in minimizing chemotherapy-induced alopecia, with 92.1% of patients retaining 50% or more of their hair, although effectiveness varied with different chemotherapy regimens.

This study observed that CIP/KIP proteins play a significant role in regulating cell cycle arrest and differentiation in human hair follicles, supporting hair growth and formation in the anagen phase.
