This article discusses dermatoses unique to Sikh men and reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes successful treatment of a four-year-old boy with kerion-type tinea capitis caused by T. mentagrophytes using griseofulvin, erythromycin, wet dressing, and ketokonazole shampoo, with improvement after 8 weeks.

In this study, OEA was found to significantly enhance sebaceous lipogenesis and potentially reduce inflammation in human sebocytes, suggesting it as a promising candidate for treating skin dryness.

The authors concluded that Lrig1-positive stem cells are essential for sebaceous gland formation in mice, as their ablation led to temporary sebaceous gland disappearance without affecting hair growth.

This review explores androgen metabolism in the skin, highlighting enzyme localization and potential implications for treating androgen-dependent skin conditions, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review revisits mechanisms underlying acne lesion formation and suggests that preventing comedone development requires controlling critical factors in the pilosebaceous follicle before acne involvement.

Balanced protease activity is crucial for healthy skin and hair development.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy with argon sputter etching visualizes hair lipids at the cell membrane complex as distinctive convex structures, shedding light on their role and localization in human hair.

This report describes a case of widespread Porokeratotic eccrine and hair follicle nevus in a 15-year-old woman with keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness syndrome, involving both eccrine ostia and hair follicle infundibula.

Excessive androgens in women with polycystic ovary syndrome can lead to excessive hair growth and hair loss, but this might not fully explain these conditions.

This article comments on Nemet et al.'s study of blepharitis, emphasizing that Demodex folliculorum is a significant factor in its associated morbidity and can be effectively managed with tea tree oil shampoo.

In this study, hyperplastic layers of scabietic sheep skin showed expansive keratin labeling, indicating altered keratin expression compared to healthy skin.

This case study found that a skin lesion in a Samoyed dog did not match any single known follicular cyst or neoplasm type described in the literature.

This article outlines a protocol for scanning electron microscopy of murine skin and primary keratinocyte monolayers, providing a guide for sample preparation and examination.

This study discovered that TREM2 macrophages influenced by squalene play a role in acne's development by hindering the killing of Cutibacterium acnes, helping explain why benzoyl peroxide is effective in treatment.

This study found that de-saponinated Camellia seed cake extract promotes hair growth in vitro and in vivo by enhancing dermal papilla cell proliferation and modulating signaling pathways and growth factor expression.

This case report describes a 35-year-old woman with diffuse partial woolly hair occurring alongside epidermolysis bullosa with mottled pigmentation.

In this study, researchers observed that human sebaceous glands can regenerate in a mouse model using transplanted human skin, potentially offering a tool to study sebaceous gland biology and regeneration.

This study suggests that immunostaining for Keratin 15 may be a useful tool for differentiating between basal cell carcinoma and trichoepithelioma.

This case report describes two instances of naevoid bundle hair on the scalp, where multiple hairs group from separate follicles into a single sheath and show abnormal reactivity to keratin antibodies.

This review discusses the histology of pilo-sebaceous follicles, androgen receptors, and various treatments for hirsutism and acne in women, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that solid basal cell epitheliomas and the outer root sheath of human hair follicles display nearly identical cytokeratin profiles, suggesting a potential origin connection.

This study found that autophagy plays a role in sebaceous gland function and sebum composition control in mice lacking the Atg7 gene in keratinocytes.

This study found that acne keloidalis nuchae was associated with pseudofolliculitis barbae, chronic scalp folliculitis, and aspects of the metabolic syndrome, particularly hypertension, in the examined population.

This study found that K6a expression in mouse sebaceous gland ducts correlates with Hedgehog signaling, suggesting a role in duct fate.

In this study, researchers observed that the sebaceous gland niche in mice allows for Wnt-induced hair follicle differentiation, unlike the non-permissive bulge.

This article discusses the mechanisms by which Cutibacterium acnes contributes to acne vulgaris and mentions potential triggers like UV light and tobacco, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the pathogenesis and prevalence of acne, emphasizing that neglecting treatment can lead to permanent scarring and emotional trauma, but presents no new findings.

This study suggests that using a dermoscope, a handheld microscope, can effectively help distinguish between Pityrosporum folliculitis and Acne vulgaris by revealing unique lesion characteristics that are not visible to the naked eye, offering a practical diagnostic alternative when KOH examinations are unavailable.

A case study reported a 15-year-old boy with a diagnosis of giant folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma on his right buttock, characterized by malformed hair follicles and sclerotized collagen.
