This study explored the secretion and cellular localization of different forms of follistatin and FST-like-3, revealing variable secretion kinetics and possible intracellular roles, particularly for nuclear FSTL3.

In this study, pregnant spotted hyenas treated with flutamide and finasteride had lower concentrations of several sex hormones, including testosterone and luteinizing hormone, compared to untreated controls.

This study reports that the dye peri-xanthenoxanthene (PXX) can act as an efficient photocatalyst for various radical reactions, including complex dual catalytic processes and the synthesis of an investigational drug intermediate.

This research found that modifying brachytherapy seeds with contrast-enhancing materials in photoacoustic imaging increased signal-to-noise ratios and imaging depth, and demonstrated potential for tissue differentiation by analyzing temperature-induced changes in PA intensity.

This study found that a gene from hamster flank organs is indirectly regulated by androgens, despite lacking direct androgen responsive elements, indicating involvement of androgen-dependent transcription factors.

This study reported that the combination of a 308-nm excimer lamp and 10% liquor carbonis detergens significantly improved scalp psoriasis symptoms compared to the excimer lamp alone, with more patients achieving 75% reduction in their Psoriasis Scalp Severity Index.

A man developed a painful skin condition after multiple heart procedures involving radiation.

This case report highlights an atypical presentation of favus in an immunocompetent adult, where a psoriasiform plaque over the 'bindi' area was successfully treated with systemic itraconazole, achieving complete resolution without relapse. Simple stains proved essential for diagnosis in this resource-limited setting.

This report describes a case of secondary syphilis with an unusual folliculocentric papular eruption in an HIV-positive patient, underlining the diagnostic challenges and importance of biopsy with treponemal staining in such cases.

This article reviews the basics of hair follicle biology, laser/tissue interactions, and hirsutism and hypertrichosis causes, discussing the long-pulsed alexandrite laser's role in hair reduction without reporting new clinical results.

The researchers reported that a newly developed photo-cross-linked hydrogel with multifunctional properties, including antimicrobial and antioxidant effects, significantly improved diabetic wound healing, achieving over 90% wound closure in seven days in vivo.

This study demonstrates that in vivo live imaging reveals how distinct stem cell activities in the limbal niche coordinate corneal regeneration.

This study concluded that bleach treatment partly transforms the hydrophobic top layer of human hair cuticles into a hydrophilic surface with clustered cysteic acid, visualized at the nano-scale using dynamic Chemical Force Microscopy.

This study found that in beagles with benign prostate hyperplasia, finasteride treatment increased blood volume and decreased vessel leakiness in the prostate's parenchymal zone as shown by dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI.

In this preclinical study, researchers developed and evaluated a new non-invasive laser system designed for personalized medical use, showing its potential for chronic disease management and adjunctive fat reduction by offering enhanced treatment precision and adaptability over existing devices.

This study used electron microscopy to identify a distinct dendritic cell in the human epidermis, similar to the melanocyte, with unique structural features and variable melanin content.

This study found that UVB exposure led to visible tanning and distinct DNA methylation changes in pigmentation genes in tan-capable skin but not in non-tan skin, highlighting GNAS as a potentially UVB-responsive gene.

In this study, Nd:YAG picosecond lasers using fractional micro-lens array were found to have a comparable effect to ablative fractional Er:YAG lasers in treating atrophic acne scars, with better safety profiles but slightly less patient satisfaction.

PCFCL may have unrecognized subtypes and needs more research.

This study outlines a method to isolate hair follicle stem cells from mouse skin using fluorescence activated cell-sorting for use in research models, but reports no experimental findings.

In this study, a novel hydrogel dressing combining photodynamic therapy with organic semiconductor nanoparticles and silk fibroin demonstrated effective antibacterial action and enhanced wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in a mouse model, showing promise as an advanced wound care solution.

Using Excimer light with topical steroids is the most effective treatment for alopecia areata.

In this study, researchers identified the presence of a "spotted lunula" as a rare sign in patients with alopecia areata, detailing its clinical and onychoscopic features.

The Epilight Hair Removal System is effective for temporary hair removal with few side effects, but more research is needed to confirm its safety and long-term results.

This study revealed distinct cellular and transcriptomic differences among various subtypes of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, particularly highlighting characteristics unique to folliculotropic mycosis fungoides.

This study found that human adult dermal fibroblasts can express markers typically associated with neural cells, suggesting potential pitfalls in relying on immunophenotyping alone for cell identity verification.

This report describes a case where solar-induced postinflammatory hyperpigmentation following laser hair removal was treated with a combination of topical treatments and serial TCA peels, resulting in only slight improvement.

This study found that photoepilation using intense pulsed light significantly reduced hair growth parameters, and phototrichograms may offer an objective method to evaluate its effectiveness.

A patient's skin rash did not affect the area where a previous viral rash was healing, suggesting a rare immune response.
