This study reports an increase in tinea capitis cases in Spain caused by anthropophilic dermatophytes, associated with immigration from Africa, and highlights potential public health concerns due to easier transmission.

This study describes a new tissue culture method that successfully induces outer root sheath cells from hair follicles to differentiate into a multilayered epithelium with characteristics similar to normal interfollicular epidermis.

This study established that a human epidermal model can be utilized to assess 5alpha-reductase activity and evaluate enzyme modulators, such as finasteride, for dermatological applications.

This study reported no Cx30 expression in normal interfollicular human epidermis and minimal expression in some skin structures, with faint detection in porokeratosis of Mibelli patient skin.

This study found that continuous β-catenin signaling in adult mouse epidermis can reprogram hair follicles to form benign tumors, which regress after the signaling is discontinued.

Cornification evolved from keratinization in vertebrates, with differences between mammals and sauropsids.

This study suggests that wounding skin in adult mice can trigger new hair follicle formation, indicating mammalian skin may have greater regenerative capacity than previously thought.

The new device improves human hair follicle cell growth and differentiation.

This study supports the use of a national registry as an effective tool for documenting epidemiological data, disease progression, treatment responses, and quality of life impacts in patients with alopecia areata.

This study found that keratin K14 expression occurs early in epidermal cell differentiation, while a hair-specific keratin is expressed later in hair matrix cells, suggesting developmental divergence between the two cell types.

This study reported that sunscreen with SPF50+ provides a high level of DNA protection against UV-induced damage in a reconstituted human epidermis model, comparable to that in skin explants.

This study reported that a Megsin-Cre transgene enables genetic manipulation primarily in skin, forestomach, and esophagus tissues, offering a new tool for studying development and diseases in these areas.

The researchers concluded that their new reconstructed human epidermis model from plucked hair follicle-derived keratinocytes offers a safer and simpler alternative to traditional skin-derived models for studying epidermal function.

This study observed that overexpression of TGF-alpha in transgenic mice led to thicker epidermis and stunted hair growth, particularly in regions with normally thick skin and low hair density.

This review highlights the potential of microneedles for immunotherapy, emphasizing their ability to enhance immune responses and reduce side effects through precise and stimuli-responsive delivery, especially in tumor treatment, while also noting the limitations and areas for improvement in current systems.

This review highlights the potential of microneedles as a low-cost, well-tolerated method for transdermal drug delivery in dermatology, though further research is needed to establish their clinical efficacy.

This study developed a 3D skin model with immune and endothelial cells, which may enhance understanding of skin biology and diseases due to its closer approximation to native skin.

In this study, researchers identified slow cycling label retaining cells in nail and sweat gland appendages, showing stem cell characteristics similar to hair follicles but with distinct features.

This review discusses how neuroendocrine pathways influence keratin regulation in human skin and hair follicles and suggests these pathways as potential targets for new treatments of skin disorders, but reports no clinical results.

In this systematic literature review, researchers reported that Moringa oleifera Lamk. leaf extract may serve as a potential anti-acne agent, demonstrated by its ability to inhibit the growth of acne-causing bacteria in laboratory settings.

This article explores the use of monoclonal antibodies to study the presence and distribution patterns of melanocytes in developing human skin, but reports no new clinical results.

This paper discusses the multipotency of cyst cells and proposes that understanding molecular circuits in cyst formation could enable engineering of desired stem cell culture phenotypes, but reports no new experimental outcomes.

In this study, maternal exposure to constant light significantly altered the neonatal skin structure in rabbits, associated with reduced maternal melatonin levels.

This study suggests that hair follicles may be the primary target in the onset of various skin diseases, potentially spreading to affect the surrounding epidermis.

This study in SPF lambs found that primary and secondary orf virus infections trigger similar skin responses, but the primary infection caused a more severe and prolonged reaction.

This review discusses the heterogeneity and plasticity of epithelial stem cells in skin homeostasis, wound healing, and tumorigenesis, reporting no new results but emphasizing the need for further exploration of key regulatory mechanisms.

New therapies for burn wounds show promise in reducing pain, infection risk, and improving healing and physical outcomes.

This review discusses recent advances in using stem cells for skin repair and regeneration after severe burn injuries, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that adult mouse dermis can be reprogrammed by epidermal cues to resemble neonatal dermis, with changes in fibroblast proliferation and extracellular matrix composition.
