This study used atomic force microscopy to image surface structures of human epidermal melanocytes, hair follicle amelanotic melanocytes, and mouse melanoma cells, revealing differences in branch structure and granule distribution.

This case report describes a unique instance of an otherwise healthy infant with phylloid terminal hair nevus, a form of hypomelanosis without extracutaneous abnormalities.

This study reports new monilethrix cases in Venezuela, the Netherlands, Belgium, and France, expanding the known mutational spectrum of the disorder with novel mutations in KRT81, KRT83, and KRT86 genes.

Monilethrix involves multiple genes affecting hair structure, including DSG4 mutations.

This study observed that anti-multiple nuclear dots antibodies, typically markers for primary biliary cirrhosis, were also present in patients with various autoimmune and connective tissue diseases, without correlating to disease activity or specific skin features.

This study suggests that Merkel cell polyomavirus T antigen-positive cells resembling Merkel cell carcinoma may originate from epithelial cells in human hair follicles, potentially informing future transgenic mouse models for this cancer.

This study found a significant reduction in the number and size of sebaceous glands in psoriatic skin lesions, indicating potential involvement in psoriatic alopecia.

This case report describes a 5-year-old girl with lipoid proteinosis, characterized by a raspy voice, thinning scalp hair, and recurrent crusted lesions leading to pock-like scars.

This study found that cutaneous manifestations, including specific skin lesions and oral ulceration, are common early indicators of SLE and may aid in its diagnosis and management.

In this case report, a 65-year-old man's neck lesion was initially misdiagnosed as benign but later identified as trichilemmal carcinoma, with the authors recommending Mohs Micrographic Surgery as the preferred treatment option for this rare condition.

This case report highlights a rare instance of CD8-positive hypopigmented mycosis fungoides causing alopecia areata-like changes, emphasizing the necessity of scalp biopsy in such presentations.

This case report describes significant skin and oral mucosa lesions in a 19-year-old patient with cri-du-chat syndrome, highlighting their impact on her nutritional status and quality of life.

This case study identified the condition as Monilethrix in a 17-year-old female, characterized by a beaded hair appearance and linked to a genetic cause.

This study concluded that controlled micro-injury induces hair regeneration and vitiligo repigmentation in mice, potentially through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This letter to the editor reports a case of alopecia universalis occurring alongside minimal change nephrotic syndrome, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that repetitive 532 nm laser therapy significantly decreased scores for macules, pigmented, and vascular lesions on the facial area, regardless of skin phototype or age.

In this study, scalp biopsies from HJMD patients revealed histological similarities to chronic telogen effluvium and highlighted the role of CDH3 mutations disrupting normal hair cycles.

This literature review conducted a comprehensive analysis of existing studies on micro-needling mesotherapy in dermatology and aims to offer a practical guide for its clinical application, though it provides no new experimental findings.

This article reports a case of linear lichen planus developing along the lines of Blaschko during intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide therapy for alopecia areata multiplex.

This study observed distinct dermoscopic features in pityriasis versicolor that could aid in its differentiation from similar skin disorders.

This study observed Malassezia hyphae in the keratotic plugs of healthy individuals, which contrasts with previous findings of these hyphae primarily in lesions of pityriasis versicolor patients.

This study reports pseudopili annulati in a dark-haired Chinese girl, identifying the unique appearance and structural characteristics of her hair without finding abnormalities in the cuticle and cortex.

This study found that cutaneous myxomas showed decreased CD44 expression in follicular epithelial proliferations, which may be related to abnormal hyaluronate accumulation in these lesions.

Monilethrix is a rare, inherited condition causing fragile hair and hair loss, with no cure but some treatments may help.

This report describes common skin CT features of rosacea identified using a reflective confocal microscope, facilitating more objective diagnosis but highlights the need for further clinical exploration.

This study identified histologic lesions and a defect in adhesion molecules causing hair loss in mice with the bal mutation, linked to a mutation in the desmoglein 3 gene.

This case report highlights a rare instance of follicular mucinosis in a 15-year-old male, emphasizing its self-limiting, benign course but noting the need for long-term monitoring due to potential association with mycosis fungoides.

This study reported that tail tip lesions in dairy cows include granulation tissue, purulent-necrotizing inflammation, and hyperkeratosis, potentially caused by ischemia.

This study found that basal cell carcinoma is more prevalent on the cutaneous lip while squamous cell carcinoma is more common on the vermilion lip, with rare recurrences following Mohs micrographic surgery.

This study identified novel compound heterozygous mutations in the DSG4 gene in a Japanese patient with congenital hypotrichosis, suggesting overlap between localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis and monilethrix.
