This case report describes successful treatment of a 21-year-old patient with lichen planopilaris using keratolytic lotions, a combination of corticosteroids, salicylic acid, and tacrolimus cream, which stopped disease progression.

This study identified a radio-resistant population of Krt15+ stem cells in the mouse small intestine that can initiate tumors, suggesting potential targets for colon cancer therapy.

A woman developed a severe skin reaction called toxic epidermal necrolysis after taking the antibiotic cephalexin.

Keratin 79 cells help form and regenerate hair canals.

This study found that kinematic alignment in total knee arthroplasty leads to a higher proportion of patients requiring smaller femoral components compared to traditional mechanical alignment, with statistical significance observed in femoral sizing differences between the two groups.

This case study documented the first known instance of biopsy-confirmed lichen planopilaris occurring after hairline-lowering surgery in a patient without prior history, highlighting a potential complication where surgical trauma may trigger immune-mediated hair loss.

This study found that certain gene polymorphisms in keratin 27 and ELOVL4 are linked to improved cashmere fineness and production traits in Liaoning cashmere goats.

This study suggests that dermal adipocytes play a significant role in skin aging, particularly through the process of adipocyte-myofibroblast transition, highlighting them as potential targets to combat aging in chronically photo-damaged skin.

This study highlights Ayurveda's holistic approach to managing hair loss, known as Khalitya, through lifestyle changes, purification therapies, and targeted medications, addressing the condition's association with modern sedentary lifestyles and poor dietary habits.

In this study, three hair tonic formulas containing Kayu Secang extracts demonstrated hair growth activity in rabbits, with the chloroform-methanol fraction showing the most significant results.

This research letter discusses the use of Janus kinase inhibitors for treating lichen planopilaris, although specific results or conclusions from the study are not provided.

In this study, the lack of cathepsin expression in Kaposi's sarcoma lesions suggests a benign hyperplastic origin for these lesions.

In this case study involving a two-month-old crossbred kid, severe skin conditions characterized by alopecia and pruritic lesions were linked to Malassezia yeast and bacteria, and successful treatment was observed with ketoconazole and supportive care.

This study provides initial insights into the use of JAK inhibitors for CTCL, reporting some cases of symptom improvement, but highlights the need for further research on their association with CTCL development and safety.

This review explores the immunological aspects of epidermal differentiation in loricrin knockout mice, offering insights into keratinization and potential intrinsic factors affecting immune function, but provides no new clinical findings.

Stem cells are in deep skin layers, while differentiating cells are in shallow layers.

This study found that a keratin mutation may cause diffuse partial woolly hair associated with loose anagen hair syndrome in some families, but other genetic factors could play a role in different cases.

This study found that ILK/ELMO2 complexes in epidermal keratinocytes are selectively activated by epidermal growth factor to induce cell migration, unlike with other growth factors.

This study identified and sequenced several keratin cDNA clones showing distinct expression patterns in mouse epithelia, with in situ hybridization highlighting differences in keratin distribution between normal and hyperproliferative tissues.

This study found that the multi-thresholding method was the most effective for segmenting hair during laser removal, as it clearly distinguished hair patterns with minimal noise.

This study found that epidermolysis bullosa simplex keratinocytes had impaired mitochondrial activity and more dispersed mitochondrial distribution compared to normal human keratinocytes.

In this study, two novel clusters of keratin-associated protein genes on human chromosome 11 were analyzed, suggesting their products are crucial for hair formation due to preferential expression in hair roots.

This study found that lysine carboxymethyl cysteinate helps protect the epidermis from UVB-induced damage by activating autophagy and restoring cornification processes in a skin model.

This review highlights that light and laser therapies, such as the 1064-nm Nd:YAG and 810-nm diode lasers, may offer significant improvement for acne keloidalis nuchae with minimal side effects, though larger trials are needed.

This publication presents a library of precision geometric medicines that reportedly kill harmful bacteria and fungi while sparing beneficial organisms, using a delivery system that targets pathogens specifically and avoids ecological harm.

This study presents a new classification of adult human scalp hair patterns based on high-resolution photographs, which may assist hair restoration surgeons and dermatologists in determining appropriate punch size for follicular unit extraction.

This article discusses the SLICC's revision and validation of the ACR SLE classification criteria to enhance clinical relevance and integrate recent immunological insights, but does not report new clinical results.
