This case report describes a woman with an unusual presentation of tinea capitis, noting diagnostic challenges as initial examinations found no mycelium or spores.

In preclinical studies, a B-Raf inhibitor called WYE-130600 caused dose-related skin effects in dogs and rats, suggesting potential similar responses might occur in humans.

This study found that proretinal nanoparticles, applied topically, are safe and effective for penetration into hair follicles, enhancing retinoid biological activity in the skin while reducing irritation compared to conventional retinal formulations.

This study hypothesizes that postinflammatory hyperpigmentation in ashy dermatosis may result from basal cell apoptosis, as evidenced by consistent histologic findings across nine patients.

Skin lymphoproliferative disorders are hard to diagnose and often linked to systemic diseases, but most have a good prognosis with accurate diagnosis.

This review discusses the multifaceted roles of neurotrophins, especially nerve growth factor (NGF), in the development and function of nociceptors and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that disrupting inflammasome signaling by eliminating caspase-1 and -11 in mice reduced skin inflammation and delayed the onset of disease, highlighting their role in skin disease pathogenesis.

In this study, dogs with atopic dermatitis showed significant improvements in macroscopic skin lesions, such as reduced pruritus and hair regrowth, after receiving coconut oil massages every three days for 33 days.

This study compared the microscopic treatment zones created by different fractional lasers and radiofrequency in swine skin, finding distinct patterns and damage levels for each technology.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia patients showed significantly higher perifollicular lymphocytic inflammation and fibrosis compared to controls, emphasizing the need for histopathological evaluation during hair transplantation.

This article discusses inflammatory perifollicular fibrosis and alopecia but provides no new research findings.

This study suggests that nerve growth factor plays a crucial role in the stress-induced termination of hair growth in mice, and its antagonism might offer a therapeutic approach to mitigate stress-related hair loss.

This article presents two cases of tinea capitis in postpubertal individuals highlighting the importance of early treatment to prevent scarring and permanent hair loss; it reports no new clinical results.

This study highlights the importance of recognizing oral lesions in diagnosing syphilis, as illustrated by three reported cases.

This study demonstrates that keratin K2 is crucial for proper keratinocyte structure and function in specific mouse skin areas, and its deficiency leads to cellular aggregates and skin abnormalities.

This study found that the small molecule honokiol may protect against inflammation, collagen breakdown, and cell damage caused by cigarette smoke in skin cells cultured in vitro.

This exploratory study found that cannabidiol (CBD) at higher concentrations may inhibit hair growth by promoting the onset of catagen in human hair follicles, while lower concentrations showed potential anti-inflammatory effects without promoting catagen.

This study found that hairless mice with homozygous mutations developed significantly more aggressive basal cell carcinomas and a heightened inflammatory response to UVB exposure compared to their haired littermates.

This study observed that adding low-level light therapy with the GentleWaves® device to Minoxidil significantly boosted hair regrowth in men with androgenetic alopecia by reducing scalp inflammation.

Isolated patchy heterochromia with pili annulati can occur without other health issues.

In a conditional knockout mouse model, this study found that loss of the transcription elongation factor SPT6 in basal keratinocytes led to psoriasis-like skin inflammation and delayed wound healing, suggesting SPT6 plays a crucial role in maintaining epidermal immune quiescence by suppressing proinflammatory NF-κB signaling.

This study demonstrated that SHFKO significantly accelerated healing in acute radiation-induced skin injuries, with mechanisms involving apoptosis inhibition, suppression of inflammation, and restoration of ROS balance, suggesting its potential as a novel multi-target therapy for radiodermatitis.

This study documented that dermatophytosis was highly prevalent in Basra's cats, particularly affecting males and cats under nine months, with lesions most frequent on ears, face, and abdomen.

This study utilized polarized light microscopy to examine hair shafts in ten children with rare genetic disorders, such as Netherton syndrome and ectodermal dysplasia, providing valuable diagnostic insights into hair thickness, composition, and structural irregularities associated with these conditions.

This study found that a high-fat diet in macaques led to severe gastrointestinal inflammation and chronic wasting, with more pronounced effects in females, highlighting the potential risks of certain dietary interventions in obesity models.

This study found that ethanolic extracts of Microsechium helleri showed notable antioxidant, hypoglycemic, and cardioprotective activities, while chloroformic extracts exhibited significant anti-inflammatory effects in experimental models.

This study found that finasteride significantly reduced symptom severity scores in patients with inflammatory chronic pelvic pain syndrome, though its effect on pain was not significant.

This study found that selective deletion of Ctip2 in epidermal keratinocytes in adult mice leads to atopic dermatitis-like inflammation and suggests Ctip2 plays a crucial role in skin barrier maintenance and inflammatory regulation.

This study found that Schistosoma mansoni cercariae stimulate epidermal keratinocytes in mice, initiating pro-inflammatory responses and barrier repair mechanisms akin to those in wound healing.

In this study, Alox15 knockout mice exhibited disrupted skin integrity and increased inflammation, suggesting that Alox15-mediated resolvin D2 production is crucial for maintaining skin homeostasis by suppressing inflammation.
