research Gender Differences in Skin: A Review of the Literature
Male and female skin differ due to hormones, affecting conditions like hair loss, acne, and skin cancer, and suggesting a need for gender-specific treatments.
research Alopecia Areata: A Multifactorial Autoimmune Condition
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease causing patchy hair loss, often with other autoimmune disorders, but its exact causes are unknown.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research Probiotic Bacteria Induce a Glow of Health
Probiotic bacteria improved skin and hair health in aged mice.
research Animal Models of Psoriasis: What Can We Learn from Them?
Rodent models helped understand psoriasis but none perfectly replicated the disease.
research Toward Understanding Scarless Skin Wound Healing and Pathological Scarring
Scarless healing is complex and influenced by genetics and environment, while better understanding could improve scar treatment.
research Pityrosporum Species as a Cause of Allergy and Infection
The yeast Pityrosporum ovale can cause skin allergies and infections, and antifungal treatments like ketoconazole are effective against it.
research Cyclosporin A: A New Drug in the Field of Canine Dermatology

research Developing Stratified Epithelia: Lessons from the Epidermis and Thymus
The skin and thymus develop similarly to protect and support immunity.
research The Immunological Impact of IL-1 Family Cytokines on the Epidermal Barrier

research Acne: Transient Arrest in the Homeostatic Host–Microbiota Dialogue?
Acne is a temporary skin imbalance during puberty that often resolves on its own.
research Immuno-Endocrinology of COVID-19: The Key Role of Sex Hormones
Sex hormones may affect COVID-19 severity, with estrogen possibly reducing risk and testosterone potentially increasing it.
research Antigen Presenting Cells in the Skin of a Patient with Hair Loss and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Antigen presenting cells around hair follicles are crucial in SLE-related hair loss.

research The Impact of HIV-Related Diseases on Pigmented Skin Types
HIV can cause skin disorders, which are often the first sign of infection, especially in people with darker skin.
research Immunoreactivity of the SARS-CoV-2 Entry Proteins ACE-2 and TMPRSS-2 in Murine Models of Hormonal Manipulation, Aging, and Cardiac Injury
Age affects how certain proteins involved in COVID-19 infection are expressed in mice, but sex hormones and heart injury do not.
research Clinical, Pathological, and Molecular Features of Classical and L-Type Atypical BSE in Goats
Both classical and L-type atypical BSE from cattle can infect goats with different incubation times, and tests can distinguish between the two strains.
research A Case Report of Alopecia Totalis Associated with Permanent Hair Dye Use
