This paper describes a rare case of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans in a nine-year-old girl, a condition typically more severe in males due to its X-linked inheritance.

This case report describes the first documented occurrence of pili torti in a healthy young adult cat, marked by noninflammatory and nonpruritic symmetrical multifocal alopecia.

This study found that hair follicle-specific keratins can form different structural assemblies depending on ionic conditions, with hair cortex keratins requiring physiological salt conditions to form intermediate filaments.

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 overview outlines the Dermatologic Surgery journal's comprehensive focus on cosmetic and reconstructive procedures, but it does not present any new research findings.

This review discusses advances in understanding epidermal biology and pathology over the past two decades and highlights the significant progress yet acknowledges that much remains to be discovered; no new clinical results are reported.

This report discusses the characteristics of circle hairs, a type of body hair growth disorder, and emphasizes the value of trichoscopy for diagnosis.

This study highlighted knuckle hyperpigmentation as an early sign of vitamin B12 deficiency, indicating a potential link to megaloblastic anemia in the vegetarian population in India.

This study suggests that immunohistochemistry of keratin and involucrin expression can aid in distinguishing malignant trichilemmoma from other tumors previously diagnosed as such.

In this study, the authors emphasize that IFK, though rare in young patients, should be considered when diagnosing scalp lesions in all age groups, highlighting the importance of recognizing its dermoscopic and histopathologic features to avoid misdiagnosis and ensure proper management.

This study reported that a novel bilayer wound dressing made from PLCL nanofibers and keratin hydrogel, loaded with FGF-2, promoted skin healing and showed potential for use in skin tissue engineering.

This study examined the subcutaneous structures in forehead creases using cadavers and observed that dense fibrous structures connecting the dermis to the frontalis muscle, as well as specific epidermal and dermal characteristics, may contribute to the formation of these creases.

This study reported that applying stem cell serum daily resulted in eyebrow hair regrowth in a patient with chronic secondary cicatricial alopecia, and prevented hair loss in another patient with acute eyebrow trauma, suggesting it as a noninvasive treatment alternative.

This study found that C8/144B antibody exclusively binds to the hair follicle bulge and not the epidermal stratum basale, with cytokeratin 19 serving as a key marker of certain basal keratinocytes that decrease with age.

This case report describes a 4-year-old girl in Singapore with inflammatory tinea capitis, which improved with oral griseofulvin and selenium sulfide shampoo.

This article reviews the role of keratins in epithelial tissues, emphasizing their importance for regular function, and reports no new experimental results.

This study observed that in chicken skin, large-scale differences in gene expression between feathered and scaly skin are controlled by enhancer-driven uniform expression, while small-scale differences within individual feathers are associated with chromatin looping.

This abstract provides a graphic illustrating that mice lacking the Sgk3 gene exhibit thin coats and abnormal hair, suggesting a role for Sgk3 kinase in hair follicle growth, but reports no new experimental findings.

This paper presents a case of a young male with linear and annular lupus panniculitis of the scalp, detailing trichoscopic findings and their correlation with histopathological features, but reports no new generalizable results.

This review provides an in-depth analysis of the structure and function of c-kit activation, and its role in both normal physiological and pathological conditions, with no new research findings reported.

This case report describes a twenty-year-old woman misdiagnosed with a sebaceous cyst that was actually pilomatrixoma, a benign skin lesion from hair matrix cells, confirmed by histopathology after excision.

In this case report, a 28-year-old Chinese man with severe dissecting cellulitis of the scalp experienced nodules resolution and hair regrowth after treatment with ixekizumab and tofacitinib, marking the first reported use of this drug combination for the condition.

This case study describes a young girl with sparse, brittle scalp hair and multiple keratotic papules, but no systemic or familial abnormalities were found.

In this study, researchers identified CENPV as a new CYLD interacting partner that localizes to primary cilia and regulates acetylated tubulin levels, offering insights into the pathogenesis of skin appendage tumors.

This study found that keratin 6hf, a type II keratin, is expressed in specific regions of mouse and human hair and suggests potential interactions with keratin 17, impacting hair development and associated disorders.

This study found that epidermal stem cells in nonglabrous skin are connected to the distal end of the arrector pili muscle, which may play a role in epidermal renewal and wound healing.

This study identified a new heterozygous mutation in the connexin 26 gene (c.263C>T; p.Ala88Val) in a premature neonate with KID syndrome, who later died from complications.

This study observed that heavy draft horses with verrucous pastern dermatitis showed significantly increased expression of keratins K6 and K16, suggesting a phylogenetically conserved keratin expression pattern in response to skin inflammation and proliferation.

This case report highlights the successful use of the Bardach modification of the curved tripod flap for repairing cicatricial pressure alopecia, offering a natural appearance and effective tension distribution in scalp reconstruction.
