This study identified a specific LIPH gene mutation (736T>A) as common in Japanese patients with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, potentially indicating its role in the condition's manifestation within this population.

This case report describes a 29-year-old Japanese-Paraguayan man who experienced a relapse of leprosy 14 years after initial treatment, presenting with severe pain and skin lesions but no sensory impairment.

This study reports that combining low level laser treatment with liposome-delivered methylene blue may effectively target sebaceous glands in mice, with efficacy influenced by laser timing and drug absorption.

This report describes the clinical presentation of Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome in two brothers and reviews the related literature, without providing new clinical outcomes.

This study identified a missense mutation in the rat Desmoglein 4 gene, causing abnormal hair shaft development in lanceolate hair mutant rats by disrupting a critical calcium binding site.

This study reports that some human cell surface HLA-I molecules (including HLA-B27) can appear without their usual peptide component, potentially altering immune interactions, influencing arthritis development in specific mice models, and exhibiting upregulation in certain cancer cells.

This study found that simultaneously inhibiting both KLK5 and KLK7 proteases completely rescued skin barrier defects in a mouse model of Netherton syndrome, suggesting both should be therapeutic targets.

This study identified two novel point mutations in the hHb6 gene associated with monilethrix, suggesting these mutations could serve as diagnostic markers for this genetic hair disorder.

Mutations in the hHb6 gene cause the hair disorder monilethrix.

KLHL24-mutant stem cells help understand skin and heart disease.

This case report describes a instance of lepromatous leprosy in a renal transplant recipient, highlighting the potential for leprosy in immunocompromised patients and emphasizing the importance of including it in differential diagnoses for unusual skin lesions.

This study found that while the CLASI is generally useful for assessing disease activity and damage in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, it may not accurately reflect all subtypes, indicating a need for revision.

In this study, the researchers identified LHX2 as a specific marker for hair follicle placodes, differentiating them from eccrine sweat gland placodes through double immunofluorescence staining.

This study found a novel nonsynonymous genetic variant in the hHb1 gene of a family with monilethrix, which differs from ten previously reported pathogenic mutations.

In this study, researchers detected all three genotypes associated with the MLPH gene's R199H polymorphism in a population of Czech pointer dogs, which is linked to coat color dilution.

This study found that combining lecithin reverse wormlike micelles with isopropyl myristate enhanced the skin permeability of a model hydrophilic drug, facilitated by interactions with sebum in hair follicles.

This study developed a fully natural resveratrol nanoparticle system using lecithin, showing potent anti-cancer activity in vitro and increased tumoral uptake in vivo on breast cancer models.

This study found that systemic treatment with DS77754007, a KLK5 inhibitor, improved skin symptoms in a mouse model of Netherton Syndrome more effectively than certain antibody treatments, suggesting KLK5 inhibition as a promising therapeutic approach for this condition.

This study found that a mutation in the seventh exon of the KRT86 gene plays a major role in the pathogenesis of monilethrix in a Chinese family.

This review integrated findings on the nutritional, pharmacological, and techno-functional properties of Leucaena seeds, highlighting their potential benefits and challenges for human nutrition, particularly due to the presence of the antinutrient mimosine, which can cause adverse effects.

This study found that chemical lumbar sympathectomy with 5% phenol effectively treated idiopathic livedo reticularis in most patients, offering a potential long-lasting solution with repeatable efficacy upon recurrence.

This article reviews historical uses of the term "lupus" for various skin disorders but provides no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers identified two significant genetic polymorphisms in the 3'-UTR of the HSP70 gene in Moa buffalo, which may play an important role in heat adaptation, providing insights for conservation and performance improvement in tropical climates.

This study found that the n-hexane fraction from Leea indica leaves significantly increased hair growth in mice and showed potential as a natural treatment for alopecia.

This study found that endophytic bacteria isolated from Leea indica leaves showed high antioxidant activity, suggesting they could be a novel source of natural antioxidants.

This report describes a woman with borderline lepromatous leprosy who developed a serious skin reaction to dapsone; she recovered quickly after stopping dapsone and receiving corticosteroids.

This study identified "HTLV-1-associated lichenoid dermatitis" as a skin condition in HTLV-1-infected individuals, characterized by reactive eruptions associated with increased immunity toward infected CD4+ T cells.

This study reports that Lef1 plays a crucial role in promoting bulge stem cell differentiation towards hair fate by activating β-catenin and downstream signaling pathways during hair follicle development.
