This article reviews the use of dermatoscopy and videodermatoscopy in therapeutic follow-up, noting that videodermatoscopy is a reliable tool despite potential cost issues with high magnifications.

In this study, researchers created a hydrogel that reduces oxidative stress and releases a pro-angiogenic drug in response to enzyme activity, which accelerated healing and improved tissue regeneration in chronic diabetic wounds during in vivo experiments.

This study found that Dex-loaded hyaluronic acid hydrogel microneedles significantly reduced pain in an acute inflammatory visceral pain model without sedation, suggesting a promising and patient-friendly alternative to intravenous delivery.

This study found that skin wound healing was accelerated in young but delayed in older Med1(epi-/-) mice compared to wild-type mice, suggesting age-dependent roles of MED1 in epidermal regeneration.

This study reported that 39.7% of Amargosa voles had mite-associated lesions, which may severely impact their health and fitness.

In this study, researchers engineered extracellular vesicles enriched with functional mitochondria to enhance healing in diabetic wounds by reversing mitochondrial and immunometabolic dysfunction in macrophages.

This study demonstrated that EVs from pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells improved recovery and function in ischemic lower limbs by enhancing angiogenesis through the ERK/MAPK signaling pathway.

In this study, a UK expert panel discussed strategies for managing common side effects of vismodegib, a hedgehog pathway inhibitor used for advanced basal cell carcinoma, concluding that adverse events like taste disturbances and muscle cramps can be effectively managed to optimize treatment duration.

In this study, eight patients with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets who share a specific VDR mutation showed improved clinical symptoms except alopecia after up to 11 years of treatment.

In this study of 40 dermatomyositis patients, most with moderate-severe disease at baseline improved over time in a polyphasic pattern, while those with mild disease often remained stable.

In this study, the authors highlight the potential of intradermal microinjections of dutasteride as an adjunctive therapy for androgenetic alopecia, though they note that information on its effectiveness remains limited.

This study found that mirex and TPA promote papilloma formation in CD-1 mouse skin through distinct populations of mutant Ha-ras cells, resulting in additive tumor yields.

This study found that a lentiviral array of reporters can identify lineage-specific promoters and pathways in mesenchymal stem cell differentiation, aiding in the prediction of signaling pathway effects.

This study found that conditional deletion of Mof in mice resulted in severe defects in skin development, including compromised epidermal differentiation and hair growth, leading to perinatal lethality.

This study suggests that mouse lineage specification during pre-implantation development involves distinct timing and mechanisms for trophectoderm and inner cell mass differentiation, challenging existing models.

In this case report, veterinarians observed a 16-year-old mare with symptoms including chronic weight loss, pruritus, muscle atrophy, and lameness, which gradually progressed to neurological issues despite initial treatment.

In this case study, a 26-year-old female with PLEC mutations and features of muscular dystrophy and myasthenia gravis showed significant improvement in symptoms following steroid treatment.

In this prospective observational study of 96 dermatomyositis patients, 47 showed scalp involvement, with significant symptoms like scalp inflammation, itching, and hair loss linked to myositis-specific antibodies. The study highlighted unique dermatopathological features in the scalp and emphasized the considerable morbidity caused by scalp dermatomyositis.

This study introduced a volar skin excisional wound model that closely mirrors human wound healing and supports evaluation of skin regeneration with multiple appendages and innervation.

In this case study, a neoadjuvant therapy combining gemcitabine and Disitamab Vedotin proved effective and safe for a muscle-invasive bladder cancer patient with severe renal insufficiency, who could not tolerate platinum-based treatments. The study suggests this regimen may be a viable alternative, pending further research.

This study found that systemic administration of NDP-MSH, a melanocortin receptor agonist, provided neuroprotective effects on dopaminergic nigrostriatal neurons in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease, reducing neuroinflammation and suggesting a role for regulatory T cells in these neuroprotective effects.

This review discusses the expression patterns and biochemical roles of Msx and Dlx genes during development but does not present new research findings.

This study suggests that for dermatomyositis patients with minimal skin disease activity, further improvement in cutaneous symptoms may not translate into better quality of life, highlighting a need to revise trial endpoints.

This review discusses recent advances in understanding the Eda pathway's role in developmental biology, and highlights ongoing trials and areas for further research, including Eda's potential involvement in cell processes and disease.

This research highlights the potential of non-coding RNAs as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in dermatology, while experimental studies on a unique GVM case suggest CCM2L may modulate disease severity, advancing understanding of genetic mechanisms in rare skin disorders.

In this case report, a 25-year-old female with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease presented unusual symptoms in a specific geographical region, prompting clinicians to approach diagnosis and management with caution due to potential severe complications such as pulmonary hypertension and renal crisis.

In this study with a rat muscle defect model, decellularized muscle matrix demonstrated better integration, neovascularization, and myogenesis compared to commercially available acellular dermal matrices, and also showed trends toward reduced inflammation and fibrosis after 30 and 60 days.

This study suggests that prenatal genetic diagnosis of MELAS syndrome using amniotic cells may not reliably predict fetal outcomes due to phenotypic diversity observed in siblings with similar levels of mutant mtDNA.

This study observed that MAA beads improved vascularization in non-diabetic male mice by modulating the Shh signaling pathway in wound granulation tissue, but showed no such effects in females.

This review found that oral methotrexate plus oral prednisone may improve disease activity or damage in juvenile active morphea compared to placebo plus prednisone, but adverse events may slightly increase.
