This case report highlights the association of three CX26 gene mutations, particularly the D50N mutation, with keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome and its potential role in scalp squamous cell carcinoma and breast cancer development in a patient.

In this study, ob/ob mice were found to have a prolonged telogen hair cycle phase from 10 to 24 weeks, suggesting their potential as a model for studying telogen effluvium.

This study found that activating CXCR2 on ras-transformed keratinocytes promotes migration and tumor development in a mouse skin model.

This article reviews the portrayal of the body as a site of transformation in media and fashion, concluding that modified bodies highlight cultural denial of natural imperfection but reports no new research findings.

This article discusses the role of epimorphin as a key morphoregulator for various epithelial cells in tubulogenesis and reports no experimental results on its signaling pathways.

This research suggests that hair keratins evolved from claw keratins in a hairless ancestor, with Hoxc13 controlling their expression in tetrapods, evidenced by the knockout of Hoxc13 hindering claw formation in Xenopus tropicalis frogs.

This study found that COX-2 expression in normal rat skin is linked to the hair cycle, with varying levels observed in different skin structures during anagen, catagen, and telogen phases.

This study concluded that standard decontamination procedures do not fully remove external contamination from post mortem hair specimens, which complicates using hair analysis to assess long-term drug exposure.

In this case report, two patients with acne necrotica, one in early and one in late stages, showed improvement after treatment with topical mometasone furoate cream and doxycycline tablets, highlighting the under-recognition of this skin condition.

This report discusses a teenager with blistering of localized epidermolysis bullosa simplex—Weber Cockayne type, recommending referral to dermatology, and includes no new clinical trials or broader conclusions.

In this study, autopsies of children who suffered fatal abuse revealed stress-associated markers like telogen effluvium and thymus involution, which may help pathologists identify chronic abuse cases.

This chapter reviews various skin disorders classified as Mendelian disorders of cornification and reports no new clinical findings, highlighting the complexity of genetics involved in inherited ichthyoses.

This case study reports a patient with Rothmund-Thomson type congenital poikiloderma, showing primarily skin changes and hair loss, along with slightly elevated lysine and cystine levels in urine.

This study reports two cases of trichoblastic neoplasms with histologic features suggesting they may be distinct, locally aggressive trichoblastic carcinomas separate from basal cell carcinoma.

This case report illustrates that a diagnosis of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome can be made without the presence of polyps, as demonstrated by resolving symptoms with steroid treatment.

This study observed that hair follicle cuticular cells undergoing keratinization were significantly thicker than those in a normal hair shaft, due to incomplete loss of cytosol.

This study identified a novel LZTR1 mutation associated with hybrid schwannoma and neurofibroma in a patient with schwannomatosis, but not all cases of hybrid tumors are linked to this condition.

In this case report, a newborn with Conradi-Hünermann-Happle syndrome was diagnosed through early skin biopsy, which revealed unique histopathological features, including dystrophic calcifications, confirming a pathogenic variant in the EBP gene.

This narrative review and case report identified a rare association between erythema nodosum and kerion caused by *Trichophyton mentagrophytes*, with successful treatment using antifungals and corticosteroids.

The study found that balding scalps have more thin hairs and larger oil glands, which might contribute to skin conditions related to hair loss.

This study introduces a novel holistic treatment approach for keloid that combines systemic therapies, including Traditional Chinese Medicine, with local interventions to target the inflammatory microenvironment and keloid predisposition for improved management and prevention of recurrence.

This article reviews Acne Keloidalis Nuchae and presents a successful treatment case using Homoeopathy, emphasizing the need for individualized treatment approaches, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses OCD spectrum disorders with dermatological symptoms, emphasizing their clinical features, neurobiology, and treatment options, while noting the need for more controlled studies.

This article reviews extensive genetic polymorphisms in the keratin-associated proteins of human hair, indicating complexity but reporting no new clinical results and calls for further research on their potential impact on hair structure.

In this study, researchers observed that mechanosensory neurons initially develop similar morphologies across different skin regions but diverge post-natally, adapting to the type of skin they innervate, with bone morphogenetic protein signaling crucial for forming Meissner corpuscles in glabrous skin.

This report suggests that peripilar hair casts, potentially linked to modern hair styling or mild trichotillomania, may be more prevalent than currently reported.

This case study reports a rare occurrence of a large trichobezoar in a 3-year-old male, who presented with a thread protruding from his mouth without any signs of hair loss.

This study found that mange-infected bare-nosed wombats have increased heat loss, higher metabolic rates, altered behavior, and disrupted fatty acid composition compared to healthy individuals.

In this study, three cases of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome revealed small bowel mucosal lesions, but these findings did not correlate with clinical symptoms or steroid treatment outcomes.
