In this study, researchers found that hair follicles and dermal fibroblasts, including dermal papilla cells, supported sustained hair growth in transplanted murine models, with RNA-seq analysis revealing active signaling pathways and gene expression patterns.

In this study, researchers discussed how specific protein interactions in reptile skin allow for the development of protective structures like scales and scutes, which facilitated reptiles' adaptation to terrestrial environments.

In this study, the authors emphasize that IFK, though rare in young patients, should be considered when diagnosing scalp lesions in all age groups, highlighting the importance of recognizing its dermoscopic and histopathologic features to avoid misdiagnosis and ensure proper management.

In human hair follicle keratinocytes, this study found that treatment with the pharmacological inhibitor QLT0267 led to a strong inhibition of proliferation and migration and induced nearly 100% apoptosis.

In this study, gene inactivation in mouse hair follicle stem cells lacking ILK impaired wound healing by reducing their progeny’s contribution to the regenerating epidermis, but did not affect hair follicle regeneration.

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 study found that integrin-linked kinase is crucial for various epidermal functions, including differentiation and barrier formation, and also plays a previously unreported role in melanocyte development and function.

This study describes the expression patterns of type I inner root sheath keratin proteins K25–K28 in human hair follicles, highlighting their distinct distribution within different layers.

This study found that the oral IRAK4-inhibitors BAY 1834845 and BAY 1830839 reduced skin inflammation and systemic inflammatory responses in healthy volunteers, showing similar pharmacodynamic effects to prednisolone when challenged with topical imiquimod and intravenous LPS.

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

This study found that ILK deficiency disrupts hair follicle development by impairing cell polarity and laminin-511 assembly, but these defects can be partially reversed with exogenous laminin-511.

This study found that ILK/ELMO2 complexes in epidermal keratinocytes are selectively activated by epidermal growth factor to induce cell migration, unlike with other growth factors.

Isoginkgetin reduces inflammation in cells by blocking NF-κB activation.

This study characterized a new human keratin, hK6irs1, specifically found in the inner root sheath of hair follicles, which suggests its role in the structural integrity and guidance of growing hair shafts.

This study found that Ift20 is essential for hair follicle stem cell identity and hair regrowth, and it regulates keratinocyte migration during wound healing through focal adhesion integrin recycling, independently of ciliogenesis.

This study confirmed known adverse events and identified new ones related to ixekizumab, offering preliminary safety insights for its clinical use, but noted limitations such as potential underreporting and confounding factors in the spontaneous adverse event reporting systems.

In this case report, a 76-year-old male had an eyelid lesion that mimicked squamous cell carcinoma but was diagnosed as benign inverted follicular keratosis after surgical excision, underscoring the importance of distinguishing between the two for proper management.

In this study, researchers found that inhibiting IKKα in patient-derived CCS tumour models reduces tumour viability, supporting the potential for topical IKKα inhibitors as a treatment for CCS.

This study found that combining ISX-9 with mesenchymal stem cells enhanced their ability to reduce inflammation and repair lung damage in an acute lung injury model compared to using the cells alone.

This study found that EGF, IGF-Ⅰ, and IGF-Ⅰ R are extensively expressed in mink skin and hair follicles, suggesting these genes play crucial roles in their development.

Ixekizumab is effective and safe for patients who did not improve with etanercept treatment for psoriasis.

In this case report, a woman with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome and hidradenitis suppurativa showed significant improvements in both conditions after six months of treatment with tofacitinib, a Janus Kinase inhibitor, with no recurrence or adverse events noted during a two-year follow-up.

This study found that in participants with notalgia paresthetica, 8 weeks of treatment with difelikefalin significantly improved itch intensity and increased the rate of strict complete response compared to placebo, starting as early as week 3.

This study suggests that Janus kinase inhibitors may offer a potential treatment option for refractory lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia, showing positive response rates between 42% and 100%, though evidence quality is low.

This study found that ACKR2 plays a crucial role in reducing inflammatory skin fibrosis and promoting inflammation resolution through IFN‐β production, limiting tissue scarring.

This study found that a novel IKZF1 mutation, p.L188V, is linked to juvenile-onset systemic lupus erythematosus and alters B-cell activation by disrupting normal DNA binding.

In this study, the KPAI and KP-IGA scoring systems for assessing keratosis pilaris showed excellent interrater and intrarater reliability, offering standardized measures for clinical and research use.

In this study, researchers reported that a keratinocyte growth factor-Ig fusion protein could specifically detect and localize KGFRs in epithelial tissues, suggesting a method for histochemical detection of growth factor receptors.

In this case study, a 12-year-old girl with severe Crohn colitis achieved impressive clinical and endoscopic remission after receiving infliximab and azathioprine as first-line treatment, suggesting potential benefits of early intensive therapy.
