This study describes a patient with metastatic renal cell carcinoma who experienced a recurrence of pemphigus vulgaris after receiving interleukin 2 immunotherapy, suggesting a possible link between the treatment and autoimmune disease recurrence.

This study determined that the incidence of Discoid Lupus Erythematosus at the Government General Hospital, Chennai, from 2006 to 2008 was 1.7 per 1000, with localized and disseminated forms manifesting distinctive demographic and clinical patterns.

This study reported that combining vertical and horizontal sectioning in scalp biopsies allows for a more thorough examination of histological changes in various types of alopecia.

This study found that human hair follicle bulge stem cells exhibited autofluorescence, potentially due to high flavin- and NAD-related compound levels, highlighting the need to consider this when using fluorescent antibodies for studying these cells.

PGD2 stops hair growth and is higher in bald men with AGA.

This study describes a method for serially cultivating adult human hair follicle keratinocytes using a specific growth substrate and cryogenic storage, enabling subculture and immunofluorescence studies.

This study found that levels of the protein MAGP-1, important for skin elasticity, decrease with aging and photoexposure, potentially contributing to skin fragility, sagging, and enlarged pores.

In this study, full-size KRT81 was expressed in both normal breast epithelial and breast cancer cells, and contributed to the migration and invasion abilities of breast cancer cells.

This study found that angiogenin is expressed in human dermal papilla cells, where it might stimulate hair growth by promoting cell proliferation and local skin angiogenesis.

This study demonstrated that a new non-invasive method for collecting and analyzing mouse hair follicles could replace traditional biopsy methods, providing advantages for translational research and routine applications.

This review discusses the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, and treatment of frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting the lack of clinical trial data and limited observational treatment results.

In this study, patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and generalized non-scarring alopecia exhibited hair loss similar to telogen effluvium, with significant changes observed in the cuticle of telogen hairs.

This observational study aims to more accurately detect and localize Propionibacterium acnes in acne lesions by combining multiple microbiological visualization techniques, but it does not present new results on their causality to acne.

This review discusses histopathologic findings in diagnosing primary cicatricial alopecias and emphasizes the importance of correlating histology with clinical presentation for accurate diagnosis; it reports no new results.

This study supports that an antibody response against anagen-specific hair follicle antigens, including trichohyalin and keratin 16, may play a role in alopecia areata.

This review discusses recent advancements in the management and diagnosis of primary cicatricial alopecias but reports no new clinical results; emerging insights suggest sebaceous gland dysfunction may play a role in their etiopathogenesis.

This review summarizes the clinical, trichoscopic, and histopathological features of alopecia types associated with cutaneous and systemic lupus erythematosus and explores their links to disease activity, but it reports no new clinical results.

Finasteride caused blisters on hands and feet.

This review discusses immunohistological and immunofluorescent methods for studying the human hair follicle cell cycle, reporting no new results, and suggests its potential for advancing cell cycle research.

This study reports that 14 of 19 patients with erythema nodosum leprosum had C3 deposits in vessel walls when examined using direct immunofluorescence.

In this study, the authors observed that cell-mediated immune mechanisms may be involved in the pathogenesis of benign follicular mucinosis, based on the cellular and immunological characteristics of two patient cases.

This study suggests that trichohyalin is modified by peptidyl-arginine deiminase before being cross-linked by TGase 3, allowing the formation of rigid structures in hair follicle cells.

This study suggests that an immune response to trichohyalin and keratin 16 may contribute to the pathogenesis of alopecia areata.

This case report examines a patient with myasthenia gravis, invasive thymoma, and paraneoplastic pemphigus associated with alopecia areata, notably without the usual mucosal involvement.

Zinc deficiency causes reversible hair loss by disrupting hair growth and stem cell function.

This study found that knocking out STAT5 expression in specific mouse hair follicles after tamoxifen treatment initiated uniform hair growth, highlighting STAT5's role in regulating the hair growth cycle.

This study observed that first-degree relatives of SLE patients display unique clinical and immunological profiles, showing elevated ANA titers and specific autoantibody patterns compared to healthy individuals.

This report details a case of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa in a 37-year-old male with a recessive mutation in the CLO7A1 gene, affecting type VII collagen.

This study found that the DFS pattern occurs in about 28% of ANA-positive cases and is relatively frequent in autoimmune diseases, contrary to previous observations suggesting no link with these diseases.

This article describes the immunofluorescence tomography method to achieve high-resolution 3-D reconstruction of epithelial tissues and reports no clinical results.
