This study identifies sexual activity as a significant potential transmission route for Trichophyton interdigitale, causing tinea genitalis among travelers to South East Asia.

This study identified novel genetic associations with skin phenotypes such as age-spots, freckles, and hair characteristics in Japanese women, providing insights into the genetic basis of these traits.

This review highlights recent advances in understanding how the extracellular matrix regulates epidermal stem cell fate, emphasizing the importance of the hair follicle stem cell niche, but reports no new empirical findings.

This article provides an updated overview of the diagnosis and management of tinea infections but reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that nearly all aged nursing home residents in Berlin had at least one dermatological condition, with xerosis cutis being the most common, but few associations with demographics or medical characteristics were found.

This review presents updated tables of mouse mutants with hair growth abnormalities to aid in understanding the molecular mechanisms of human hair disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This review explores the role of Eph receptors and ephrins in skin cell processes, discussing their potential for therapeutic targeting in dermatological disorders, but it presents no new research findings.

This study observed that nuclear β-catenin expression in non-small-cell lung carcinomas correlates with increased proliferation and loss of key cell-cycle checkpoints, suggesting an oncogenic advantage.

This study highlights the challenges in treating Microsporum canis infections due to variable antifungal drug efficacy and potential resistance, emphasizing the need for standardized methods to assess drug susceptibility.

This study suggests that age-related changes in skin elasticity reduce its stability against wrinkling, and anti-aging strategies should focus on addressing elastic mismatches between skin layers.

This review discusses systemic antifungal treatments for tinea capitis in children, noting that newer agents like terbinafine and itraconazole require shorter courses than the traditional griseofulvin, but may be more costly.

This study validated a protocol for inducing surface ectoderm differentiation from human induced pluripotent stem cells and highlighted the role of TGFβ signaling pathways in this process.

This study suggests that deep dermatophytosis is a distinct condition occurring in immunocompromised patients, characterized by nodules, an indolent course, and absence of follicular invasion, which resolves completely with systemic antifungal treatment.

This article reviews the role of polarity proteins in epidermal morphogenesis and homeostasis and discusses how their alteration may contribute to skin disease, but reports no new experimental findings.

This source discusses the diagnosis and treatment of Tinea capitis in children, highlighting that Trichophyton tonsurans is the prevalent cause in the UK and that terbinafine is an effective treatment option.

This study found significant differences in hair density, non-vellus hair diameter, and percentage of miniaturized hair between normal women and those with female pattern hair loss, particularly in the midscalp and parietal areas.

Finasteride can cause one-sided breast enlargement, which disappears after stopping the drug.

This source reports that thymosin beta 4 accelerated dermal wound repair in phase 2 clinical trials for pressure ulcers, stasis ulcers, and epidermolysis bullosa wounds and was well tolerated.

This paper proposes a systematic approach to evaluating scalp itch using the SCALLP acronym and highlights the importance of classifying cases based on the presence of dermatological lesions and hair loss, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that the NOTCH signaling pathway may contribute to the development of fibrosis in systemic sclerosis by affecting epithelial cell changes, and inhibiting this pathway could prevent fibrosis in experimental models.

This review discusses the generation of germ cell-like cells from skin-derived stem cells and reports no new results; the potential for these cells to produce viable progeny remains unclear.

This study found that DHT treatment led to reduced cell growth, increased cell death, cell cycle arrest, ROS production, and senescence in normal human dermal papilla cells, potentially mediated by altered miRNA expression.

This study concluded that TrichoScan is error-prone in its current form and overestimates certain hair growth parameters, with results not aligning with clinical severity of alopecia.

Method quickly measures finasteride concentration in capsules.

This study found significant differences in gene expression between newborn and adult skin, with infant skin notably increasing processes related to ECM organization, cell adhesion, and collagen fibril organization.

This study identified distinct gene expression patterns in wool follicle bulbs that may play important roles in wool follicle cycling and regeneration in sheep.

This study suggests that hydroxychloroquine may benefit some children with alopecia areata, as five out of nine patients showed improvement, although side effects like gastrointestinal intolerance and headache were noted.

This study observed that using serial sectioning and d-PAS staining improved detection of Malassezia folliculitis, notably in lesions on the trunks of male patients.

This study found that oral retinoid therapy may provide clinical improvement in a small percentage of patients with treatment-resistant lichen planopilaris, although it is not commonly used as a first-line treatment.

In this study, transcriptome analysis identified 68 differentially expressed miRNAs in human dermal papilla cells treated with hydrogen peroxide, suggesting they play a significant role in growth arrest and apoptosis.
