This article provides a comprehensive review of ichthyoses, including their classification, biochemistry, associated syndromes, and therapeutic approaches, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses various forms of ichthyosis, including genetic and acquired types, detailing their characteristics, causes, and potential management strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reports the first keratin gene mutation affecting the tail domain, leading to a unique cytoskeletal abnormality and severe epidermal hyperkeratosis, highlighting the tail domain's critical role in keratin organization.

This study found that combining near-infrared laser phototherapy with indocyanine green application may improve acne vulgaris by reducing active lesions and inflammation without side effects.

This study indicates that reduced activity of the matriptase-prostasin proteolytic cascade is likely the cause of human autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis, as demonstrated using a novel mouse model.

This study identified genetic mutations linked to congenital ichthyosis in families from the UAE and Turkey, revealing a connection between keratinization disorders and impaired filaggrin processing.

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 article reviews IFAP syndrome, an X-linked genetic disorder characterized by ichthyosis follicularis, alopecia, and photophobia, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that topical estradiol inhibits hair growth in mice by preventing the hair follicle's transition from resting to growth phase, a process reversible with an estrogen receptor antagonist.

This article reviews genetic advances in resolving inherited ichthyoses using next generation sequencing and notes that new sequencing methods may clarify unknown types in the future.

This review discusses the varying neonatal presentations of Mendelian disorders of cornification (ichthyosis) based on phenotypic groups but reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest categorizing these presentations to guide diagnosis and treatment.

This review discusses various rare syndromes associated with ichthyosis and emphasizes the importance of understanding their molecular genetics and mechanisms for developing effective treatments and genetic counseling, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study reported four new cases of NISCH syndrome in a Moroccan family, confirming genetic variability in liver disease severity and suggesting potential benefits from early UDCA therapy.

In this case report, a 3-year-old male with IFAP syndrome showed moderate improvement in skin symptoms and corneal erosions but no change in alopecia or photophobia after 6 months of acitretin therapy.

This review discusses ichthyosis with confetti, highlighting its genetic basis, clinical features, diagnostic criteria, and current treatment options but reports no new clinical results.

This case study reports on a mother and daughter with ichthyosis follicularis, alopecia, and photophobia, noting consistent keratotic eruptions during the mother's pregnancies that improved postpartum.

This study identified a new heterozygous mutation in the connexin 26 gene (c.263C>T; p.Ala88Val) in a premature neonate with KID syndrome, who later died from complications.

This study found that the effectiveness of 17-beta-estradiol in inhibiting hair growth depends on its application method, and noted significant sex differences in response to 17-alpha-estradiol in male and female mice.

This report documents a novel alanine to valine substitution in the GJB2 gene in a Japanese girl with severe keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome, suggesting a potential link to her severe recurrent infections and immunodeficiency.

This study suggests that the harlequin ichthyosis mouse model closely resembles human type 2 harlequin ichthyosis, indicating its potential as a useful model for studying the human condition.

This study suggests that icariin promotes hair follicle growth in mice by enhancing IGF-1 expression in dermal papilla cells.

This study identified major criteria including ectodermal malformations for diagnosing ichthyosis with confetti, and revealed significant genetic variation in the disease locus within the general population.

This study found that nutritional deficiencies and gastrointestinal abnormalities are uncommon in children with ichthyosis and growth failure, suggesting chronic hypovolemia may be more prevalent in this group.

This case report details a 4-year-old girl who developed a fever and widespread papular, pruritic rash resembling a heat rash, with a progression to thick, scaly patches but had sterile blood and urine cultures.

This review discusses recent advancements in therapies for ichthyosis, highlighting promising prospects in protein replacement and gene therapy, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, it was observed that NIPAL4 mutations linked to autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis lead to abnormal skin barrier function due to cytotoxic effects disrupting lipid structure and organization, which topical treatments only partially ameliorated.

This overview discusses advancements in the understanding of molecular genetics in heritable keratinization disorders, focusing on recent cases of inherited ichthyosis, and reports no new clinical results.

This study describes a distinctive form of ichthyosis characterized by abnormal epidermal differentiation mainly within hair follicles in four patients with congenital follicular hyperkeratosis.

This letter describes a case of a 22-year-old woman with ichthyosis serpentina and related symptoms, suggesting it as a variant form of ichthyosis associated with bamboo hair, without necessarily including atopic features.

This study identified a severe MBTPS2 gene mutation in a Japanese patient with IFAP syndrome, suggesting other factors may influence the varied clinical severity of the condition.
