This study found that Dermal Fibroblast Progenitors have repressed chromatin profiles which hinder their ability to reform skin in allograft assays despite their differentiation potential.

This case report describes a 64-year-old man with advanced colorectal cancer developing cutaneous side effects from panitumumab, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to improve quality of life and therapy continuation.

This article reviews skin toxicity classifications and management in patients undergoing molecularly targeted therapy, noting significant dermatotropic side effects associated with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Inhibitors.

This study observed that consuming 50g of cheonggukjang daily for 3 months improved eyebrow length, thickness, and reduced damage in middle-aged women compared to controls, although the number of eyebrows did not change.

In this survey-based study, researchers reported a high prevalence of hair loss among subjects in Delhi and the National Capital Region and noted widespread unawareness of its dietary, hormonal, genetic, and environmental causes.

This study highlights that patients with pemphigus experiencing cutaneous involvement endure pruritus levels approaching those of bullous pemphigoid, impacting their quality of life alongside other autoimmune blistering diseases.

This study examined dermatological conditions in people with multiple sclerosis and found nevus and hair diseases to be the most common, indicating the importance of comprehensive skin examinations for early diagnosis and treatment.

The book is a detailed guide on hair and scalp diseases, useful for dermatopathologists.

This article provides an overview of hair density, hair diameter, and the prevalence of female pattern hair loss but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, women experiencing hair thinning who consumed tailored botanical-based nutraceuticals saw significant increases in linear hair growth rate and other hair health parameters over 90 and 180 days, supporting their effectiveness across different life stages.

This review found that 3D bioprinting significantly advances skin tissue engineering by enabling the creation of complex, patient-specific skin structures, though technological and regulatory challenges persist, particularly in areas like scalability and physiological mimicry.

This study developed EGCG-loaded nanohydrogels using ethyl cellulose and polyvinyl alcohol to enhance the stability and delivery of the hydrophilic drug in aloe vera gel, optimizing encapsulation efficiency and drug release properties.

This review reports that nutritional and lifestyle factors, such as micronutrient deficiencies and stress, play a significant role in hair health and loss, but emphasizes that evidence for interventions remains limited and more research is needed to establish clear clinical guidelines.

This study found that curcumin spanlastics demonstrated greater antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer activities in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line compared to curcumin alone or curcumin nanocrystals, also affecting several cancer-related protein markers and showing enhanced solubility and activity.

This study found that a cellulose membrane significantly shortened the healing time and reduced the ulcer area in patients with chronic venous leg ulcers compared to a standard antimicrobial dressing.

This study used integrated single-cell chromatin and transcriptomic analyses in developing mouse skin to uncover gene networks involved in skin lineage specification and identified Mef2c+ upper fibroblasts as potential precursors to certain muscle-like structures, with cross-species findings in human skin.

This review highlights the various causes and treatment options for alopecia, noting that while non-scarring types often see successful hair regrowth, scarring forms require early intervention to manage inflammatory destruction of hair follicles.

This review reports that the compound Cepharanthine shows promise as a cancer therapy by inducing cell death, arresting cell growth, inhibiting tumor progression, modulating key oncogenic pathways, and reversing multidrug resistance, suggesting its potential for further investigation in oncology.

This study highlights the limited number of cross-sectoral evaluations of health interventions and suggests that guidance from health technology assessment agencies could enhance evidence and encourage novel investment in population health.
