This study developed a micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography method for determining minoxidil in Rogaine and generic products, offering a simple and efficient alternative to HPLC.

In this review, researchers examined the link between microorganisms and vitiligo, highlighting how microbes might impact the disease's development and suggesting avenues for better treatment strategies based on these interactions.

This study found that PGRP-S expression in mouse epidermis is specific to certain hair follicle epithelia, depending on the skin region, and can be transiently induced in flank skin hair follicle epithelium after exposure to Staphylococcus aureus, suggesting a role in environmental surveillance.

This review discusses micro-segmental hair analysis for forensic toxicology, emphasizing its potential to provide detailed drug distribution profiles and its application in investigations, while noting the method's limitations and future perspectives.

This report describes the first diagnosed case of dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum canis in a young maned wolf, emphasizing the importance of monitoring emerging diseases in this vulnerable species.

This study reviewed 55 studies to assess the bacterial microbiome in hair follicles across different inflammatory skin and hair conditions, reporting shifts in the abundance of Cutibacterium and Staphylococcus among various diseases, though the causal significance remains unclear.

In this study using a mouse model, researchers utilized single-cell RNA sequencing to create a comprehensive cellular atlas of infected versus uninfected wounds, revealing that Enterococcus faecalis infections lead to immunosuppressive changes in skin cells and disrupt normal wound healing processes.

This study observed significant differences in skin fungal communities between healthy and alopecic cynomolgus macaques, suggesting certain microorganisms may be associated with alopecia in these primates.

This study found that in a mouse model of psoriasis, depleting CD169⁺ macrophages led to milder symptoms and decreased inflammation, suggesting these macrophages play a crucial role in psoriasis development.

This report discusses a case of reticular erythematous mucinosis syndrome, highlighting minimal mucin deposition and significant lymphocytic infiltration around the hair follicle, contributing to the ongoing debate about its nature as a mucinosis.

The study reported that Demodex musculi infestation was notably higher in immunodeficient mice, while infested immunocompetent mice, particularly the BALB/c strain, showed increased IgE levels and developed alopecia over time.

In this case report, a 16-year-old boy diagnosed with lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei showed improvement in facial granulomatous lesions with scarring after treatment with doxycycline, highlighting the potential need to explore treatment options for this condition characterized by asymptomatic papules on the central face.

This study found that deleting the Mof gene in mouse skin leads to severe defects in skin cell self-renewal, differentiation, and hair follicle growth, indicating that MOF is crucial for mitochondrial and ciliary gene expression and essential for skin development.

This study found that among 86 skin scrapings from various dog breeds with ringworm lesions, Microsporum species were the predominant fungal infection, with Labradors showing the highest infection rate. Miconazole was most effective in antifungal susceptibility tests.

In this study, the authors observed that Staphylococcus aureus lipase gehB is crucial for bacterial penetration of hair follicles in mice, implicating lipases in inflammation and skin damage.

This case report from the study describes a dog suffering from dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum canis, presenting with alopecia on the neck and ear, illustrating the zoonotic risk of these fungal infections in both animals and humans, particularly in hot and humid climates.

In this study, researchers observed that rhino mice exhibit significant ductal hyperkeratinization in the meibomian gland, which may represent the first naturally occurring disorder of this gland in mice.

This review highlights Malassezia's dual role as both protective and pathogenic within the hair follicle ecosystem, noting its involvement in skin disorders and potential cancer progression, and calls for further studies to develop targeted treatments for related conditions.

In this study, all five serotypes of Ureaplasma were found to be pathogenic in a mouse model of lower genital tract infection, with serotype 4 showing the greatest pathogenicity.

In this study, researchers found that topical mousse treatments containing chlorhexidine and other active ingredients showed significant antibacterial effects on both skin and hair in short-haired dogs, but mainly on hair in long-haired dogs, suggesting hair evaluations might overestimate skin-level efficacy.

In a comparative genomic study, researchers observed significant genetic differences among the three chemical races of the alga Botryococcus braunii, leading them to propose reclassifying these races as distinct species based on their unique genomic characteristics.

This study identified novel endophytic actinobacteria from the Citrullus colocynthis plant with antibacterial properties, suggesting potential for new antibiotic development against multi-drug-resistant bacteria.

This study examined recent findings on the role of host-microbiome interactions in acne, highlighting that the skin's microbiome composition differs between acne-affected and healthy individuals and discussing emerging microbiome-based treatments.

This case report describes a rare instance of cutaneous focal mucinosis in a 12-year-old Chinese girl, presented as a hypopigmented plaque on her chin.

This study developed BroadAMP-GPT, a computational-experimental framework, to discover new antimicrobial peptides, identifying candidates effective against multidrug-resistant pathogens. Notably, AMP_S13 showed strong stability, low toxicity, and efficacy in infection models, highlighting the platform's potential in combating antimicrobial resistance.

In this study, researchers identified high levels of multidrug resistance in E. coli samples from broiler chickens in Malang Regency, with all positive samples resistant to multiple antibiotics including Erythromycin, Bacitracin, and Amoxicillin.

This study found that Merkel cell carcinoma recurrence risk peaks within the first two years after diagnosis and varies significantly by stage, with immune suppression, age, and male sex also influencing risk.

This study found that different doses of methionine altered the composition of developing tooth germs in newborn rats, with incisor and molar germs affected differently but no statistical difference in body weight.

Candida auris uses the immune response to colonize hair follicles.

This study observed that Indian women with PCOS had distinct gut microbiome profiles, linking specific bacterial genera to metabolic and hormonal predictors of the condition.
