In this study, eight healthy dogs showed hair and skin damage, including hair shaft fractures and skin irritation, after repeated application of Clairol Hair Dye Flaxen Blonde.

This report of ichthyosis follicularis in two boys discusses the challenges of distinguishing it from similar disorders, noting its rarity and unclear inheritance pattern without providing new clinical results.

This case study reports that a combination of PUVA therapy and oral methyl prednisolone initially improved symptoms of a woman's cutaneous T-cell lymphoma but required ongoing treatment due to recurrence.

Obesity is linked to various skin problems and may increase the risk of skin cancer.

This article offers a viewpoint on hidradenitis suppurativa pathogenesis, suggesting that impaired Notch signalling from γ-secretase mutations may drive inflammation and link the condition to other Th17-driven diseases.

This study found that applying scalp sebum from young men to rabbit ear canals caused follicular hyperkeratosis, suggesting sebum stimulates the formation of comedones, a key feature in acne vulgaris.

This study identified four novel DSG4 mutations associated with monilethrix in 12 Jewish families, suggesting a recessive inheritance pattern and broader prevalence of DSG4-related hair disorders than previously recognized.

In this study, researchers identified PSENEN mutations that can lead to a form of Dowling-Degos disease, characterized by follicular hyperkeratosis and an increased susceptibility to acne inversa, especially in the presence of certain trigger factors.

In this study, vemurafenib was associated with a wide range of cutaneous side effects in patients with advanced melanoma, including photosensitivity and various skin and hair changes, necessitating regular dermatological management.

This study found that heterozygous mice overexpressing Claudin-6 experienced alterations in epidermal and hair follicle differentiation, leading to distinctive coat characteristics and a disrupted epidermal permeability barrier.

This article presents two cases of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans and reviews its features, highlighting characteristic progression from keratosis pilaris in infancy to cicatricial alopecia in childhood.

This review discusses the range of diseases caused by mutations in keratin intermediate filament genes and presents no new clinical findings; the authors note the diverse phenotypes within this molecular category.

This study suggests that trichoscopic features, such as perifollicular erythema and cicatricial white patches, are independently associated with pruritus and the severity of frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This study found that obesity is associated with several skin conditions, such as striae and pseudoacanthosis nigricans, which may serve as markers of excessive weight.

This study found that dermoscopy showed distinctive patterns for different types of alopecia, supporting its clinical usefulness for diagnosing diseases with small round or oval hairless patches on the scalp.

This study found that among women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, 100% showed dermoscopic elements suggestive of the condition, with perifollicular erythema often indicating disease activity.

This article discusses the role of growth hormone, insulin, and IGF-1 in acne development and highlights how diet and syndromic evidence support their involvement, but presents no new clinical findings.

The study concluded that fatty acid transport protein 4 in epidermal keratinocytes is crucial for maintaining normal skin structure, as its deficiency led to hyperkeratosis and epidermal barrier disruption in mice.

This study found diverse clinical presentations of lichen planopilaris, with classic lichen planopilaris being the most common, highlighting the importance of recognizing this variability for accurate diagnosis.

A specific gene mutation causes sparse, brittle hair in a family.

This study is the first to describe a mixed pattern of essential syphilitic alopecia using trichoscopy, identifying features like tapered bended hairs and perifollicular hyperkeratosis in a patient without secondary syphilis symptoms.

This study found that horizontal sections of scalp biopsies in patients with Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia often reveal follicular miniaturization, inflammation, and scarring, which can guide personalized treatment.

This study concluded that coat damage in captive rhesus macaques is unlikely caused by parasitic, bacterial, or mycotic infections but may be linked to environmental or behavioral factors affecting hair growth.

This study found that sphynx cats exhibit hair follicle dysplasia with abnormal hair shaft production, but without a reduction in the number of follicles, similar to murine KRT 71 mutants.

This report documented the first known case of Malassezia slooffiae-associated dermatitis identified in a goat through diagnostic work-up, including histology and DNA sequencing.

Tigason improved hair growth in a boy with monilethrix without side effects.

This study observed that frontal fibrosing alopecia is increasingly diagnosed in Italian Caucasian females, often showing premenopausal onset and eyebrow alopecia as an early sign.

In this study, encorafenib combined with binimetinib was well tolerated in melanoma patients, resulting in relatively few cutaneous adverse events compared to other BRAF and MEK inhibitors.

Fibroblasts from healthy donors can prevent changes seen in recessive epidermolysis bullosa simplex.

This study provides one of the first descriptions of the demographic, clinical, and therapeutic characteristics of lichen planopilaris in Chilean adults, reporting that treatment usually reduced or halted disease progression.
