This review discusses three newly identified forms of epidermolysis bullosa related to mutations in DST-e, EXPH5, and ITGA3, offering insights into their genetic and clinical characteristics but reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that disrupting ephrin-Eph interactions in adult mouse skin doubled cell proliferation in the hair follicle and epidermis, suggesting ephrins as negative regulators of proliferation.

This study found that Par3 plays a crucial role in maintaining epidermal homeostasis by regulating Rho/actomyosin contractility and ensuring mitotic accuracy, with potential implications for other self-renewing epithelia.

This review suggests that skin may largely protect itself from CYP-generated reactive metabolites due to higher conjugating enzyme activities, while highlighting limitations in modeling human skin metabolism experimentally.

In this study, socially defeated mice showed increased alcohol consumption, and CRF-R1 antagonism selectively reduced drinking in these mice, suggesting a potential treatment target for stress-related alcohol use disorders.

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 review explores potential indications for prolactin receptor inhibitors beyond breast and prostate cancers, emphasizing the need for potent antibodies to further research prolactin receptor expression.

In this study, photodynamic therapy significantly reduced inflammatory acne lesions and sebum secretion, possibly by inducing apoptosis in sebaceous glands and down-regulating TLR-2 and TLR-4 expression.

This study reports that GLP-1 receptors and proglucagon are expressed in the skin of newborn mice, with GLP-1 potentially playing a role in skin development and hair follicle formation.

This study demonstrated that an engineered human skin equivalent can generate follicle-like structures resembling fetal skin, highlighting the role of the dermal compartment in directing epithelial cell fate in vitro.

This article reviews the role of vasoactive intestinal peptide in maintaining immune privilege in hair follicles and does not report new findings; the authors propose it as essential for immune homeostasis in alopecia areata.

In this study, researchers found no hypertrophy in axillary sweat glands of hyperhidrotic patients, with eccrine gland clear cells being the primary site of fluid transport and no evidence of apoeccrine glands.

This study found that TSC2-null fibroblast cells from TSC skin hamartomas can induce hair follicle formation and hamartomatous changes in keratinocytes, with active mTOR signaling observable in a mouse xenograft model.

This study found that basement membrane components and structures in mouse hair follicles are highly specialized for specific inter-tissue interactions, with laminin α5 playing a crucial role in hair cycle regulation and anchoring.

This review discusses the pharmacological properties and physiological regulation of neuroactive steroids, focusing on their varied responses to stress and ethanol in rats, mice, and humans, but it reports no new findings.

In this mouse study, researchers found that hydrogen peroxide and monoethanolamine in hair dyes may be key contributors to dermatitis and hair loss due to oxidative stress.

This article reviews potential factors influencing Behçet's disease, like increased neutrophil functions, immunological changes, stress, and hormonal alterations, but it presents no new clinical results.

In this study, epidermal Notch activation increased jagged 1 expression, leading to skin changes like thickening and blistering, with these effects inhibited when jagged 1 was absent.

This review discusses how the brain can influence skin biology, suggesting a link between psychological factors and skin health, but it reports no new scientific findings.

This review discusses the role of stem cells in alopecia pathogenesis, highlighting the differences between scarring and nonscarring types, and reports no new clinical results.

This review summarizes the use of chlormadinone acetate for hormone replacement therapy and contraception, highlighting its anti-androgenic effects, contraceptive efficacy, and clinical tolerability, without offering new clinical results.

This study found that high levels of parathyroid hormone-related protein expression can result in the production of shorter hair shafts, likely through effects on angiogenesis.

In this study, DHT was found to inhibit hair growth in mice by decreasing IGF-I production in dermal papillae through reduced sensory neuron stimulation.

This study found that dutasteride pretreatment reduced certain sedative effects of alcohol and may decrease drinking behavior in adult men, likely by impacting neuroactive steroid levels.

In this study, DHT was associated with increased production of proinflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α in cultured sebocytes, suggesting a role in acne pathophysiology beyond sebum production.

This study found that ultraviolet radiation negatively affects hair follicle functions in human scalp skin, and caffeine application may provide some protective effects against this damage.

This study reveals that somatosensory neurons in mouse skin exhibit structural plasticity during hair-follicle regeneration, which may temporarily impair the reliability of encoding gentle touch.

This article provides an overview of recent discoveries about steroidogenic enzymes involved in androgenetic alopecia but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that CIP/KIP proteins play a significant role in regulating cell cycle arrest and differentiation in human hair follicles, supporting hair growth and formation in the anagen phase.

This essay reviews the role of human scalp hair follicles in the "brain-skin connection," highlighting their dual function as targets and sources of neurohormones, without reporting new experimental results.
