This review discusses the potential biomedical applications of Janus membranes, especially in wound healing, and emphasizes the challenges and future prospects in their development, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found significant changes in gene expression related to skin structure and signaling pathways in AEC syndrome skin, offering new insights into the syndrome's molecular underpinnings.

This study found that oral etretinate improved skin conditions like erythrodermic and pustular psoriasis, although less so for psoriasis vulgaris and lichen planus, with notable side effects including cheilitis and mucous membrane dryness.

This study found that the formation of the fibre cuticle surface in Merino sheep is similar to the epidermal stratum corneum process and not from a modified plasma membrane as previously thought.

This study found that electrospun poly(ε-caprolactone)/poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) blend fibers demonstrated nanometric dimensions and promising properties for drug delivery, with curcumin release linked to fiber morphology and processing parameters.

This study found that in anagen hair follicles, the basement membrane zone components showed decreased expression in the lower hair bulb, with a complete absence of BP230 at the dermal papilla junction, suggesting an incomplete hemidesmosome structure in these regions.

Glycoproteins are present in the cell membranes of various keratin fibers.

This study found that combining a human acellular amniotic membrane with iPSC-derived epithelial stem cells effectively repaired skin defects and promoted hair follicle formation in nude mice.

This study found that citrullinated proteins, which are implicated in rheumatoid arthritis, were abundant in outer membrane vesicles from Porphyromonas gingivalis but nearly absent in mutants, validating their approach to citrullinated peptide identification.

This review discusses new developments in understanding the structure and properties of keratin fiber cell membrane complexes, without reporting new experimental results.

This study suggests that the cell membrane complex in hair cuticles contains hydrophilic regions with disulfide bonds allowing polymer uptake and hydrophobic lamella-like lipid layers.

This study's simulations revealed the complex "onion-like" organization of a lipid nanoemulsion droplet containing vitamins A and E for skin delivery, showing distinct concentration patterns of these vitamins within different layers of the nanodroplet.

This study found that the expression of laminin-511 and -332 was significantly increased in psoriasis skin lesions and may influence keratinocyte proliferation and apoptosis, suggesting a previously overlooked role in the disease's pathogenesis.

In this study, researchers found that AGD1 is crucial for membrane recruitment during root hair development in Arabidopsis thaliana, with its pleckstrin homology domain essential for targeting specific plasma membrane regions.

This study reviewed the challenges of delivering nucleic acids for gene therapy, highlighting the limitations of non-viral vehicles and exploring bioinspired strategies using cell membrane camouflage for improved delivery efficacy.

Collagen XVIII is crucial for maintaining tissue structure and function in the brain, kidneys, and hair.

A woman with a rare autoimmune disorder had a blister on her eye and unique immune reaction, which was effectively treated with medication.

This study found that in lichen planopilaris, the basement membrane zone of the hair follicles exhibited disrupted and discontinuous staining patterns, potentially contributing to scarring and irreversible hair loss.

This study reviewed the use of 3D printing and bioprinting for tympanic membrane repair, comparing them with traditional materials and noting their clinical significance, while highlighting the need for further analysis of bio-ink selection strategies involving biopolymers, cells, and drugs.

In this study, collagen I decellularized scaffolds enhanced the growth and melanotic properties of hair follicle melanocytes, suggesting their potential as effective carriers for transplantation in vitiligo treatment.

This study observed that hair loss, which resolved on its own within six months, was reported by some patients after extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, suggesting it as a potential side effect.

This study found that magnesium oxide-incorporated electrospun membranes improved wound healing in a simulated model by accelerating wound closure, reducing inflammation, promoting fibroblast proliferation, and stimulating angiogenesis and skin regeneration.

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 study found that treating SM-MSCs with 150 μg/mL IGF-1 led to the highest increases in growth factor proteins BMP-2, FGF-18, and TGF-β1 in their conditioned media.

This study reveals that basement membrane composition and structure in mouse hair follicles are specialized for distinct inter-tissue interactions, with laminin α5 being essential for maintaining these interfaces.

This study found that washing hair with surfactants reduces the internal density of hair due to cuticle lifting, and suggests that a cuticle-sealing strategy can inhibit this effect and maintain hair homeostasis.

This study observed that using a basement membrane matrix significantly improved hair follicle reconstruction in a mouse model, leading to quicker hair formation and a greater number of hair shafts compared to a control medium.

This case report describes a patient with mucous membrane pemphigoid who experienced recurrent blisters and cicatricial alopecia, showing improvement with prednisolone and dapsone treatment.

This study found that the addition of SPACE peptide significantly enhanced the penetration of amniotic membrane stem cell metabolites in mice, with only very mild irritation observed.
