This study explored using a chitosan oligomer coating for topical delivery of dutasteride-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers, aiming to reduce systemic exposure and cytotoxicity.

This study reports that generalized discoid lupus erythematosus is a recognized canine variant of cutaneous lupus erythematosus, resembling its human counterpart, with varied treatment responses and common relapses.

This review covers the development and validation of classification criteria for systemic lupus erythematosus, detailing the changes from the 1982 ACR criteria to the 2012 SLICC criteria, and reports no new results.

This study found that deleting all three Desmoglein 1 genes in mice led to impaired skin barrier function, disorganized epidermis, and postnatal lethality, highlighting Dsg1's essential role in epidermal development and maintenance.

Laser Lax is a new tool that measures scalp looseness accurately and comfortably.

This review categorizes 59 modifications of the Dermatology Life Quality Index across multiple studies, highlighting the need for further validation of these customized health-related quality of life tools in dermatology.

This review discusses current and emerging treatments for discoid lupus erythematosus, suggesting that new biologic and small-molecule therapies may improve disease control when combined with traditional management.

This study found that in mice, LSD1 interacting with HSP90 accelerates skin wound healing by enhancing HFSC glycolytic metabolism, proliferation, and differentiation via the c-MYC/LDHA axis.

This report describes a unique case of dyschromatosis universalis in a 10-year-old Haitian male, notable for the presence of a silvery sheen to his scalp hairs and eyelashes, which may represent a variation of the condition.

This study reports that a homozygous A1103G mutation in DSG 4 is responsible for localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis in a 2-year-old Chinese girl, resulting in reduced DSG 4 expression and hair defects.
