This study suggests that the Grasp protein may play a role in regulating skin homeostasis following UVB exposure by influencing p53-mediated apoptotic responses in mice.

This case report highlights an 11-year-old girl with dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis, identifying associated Salzmann's nodular degeneration of the cornea and emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary management approach.

In this case report, researchers described a female child with total alopecia due to a mutation in the SNRPE gene, emphasizing the need for updated genetic testing as knowledge advances to avoid diagnostic delays in hereditary nonsyndromic hypotrichosis.

This study applied a new RGB trichrome stain to human skin samples, revealing distinct structural staining in normal tissues and potential proteoglycan-rich zones in hair follicles.

This review discusses the role of PPAR-γ in the pathogenesis of primary cicatricial alopecia, including its involvement in lichen planopilaris and treatment trials using PPAR-agonists, and reports no new clinical results.

In this case report, narrowband-UVB phototherapy successfully treated a rare instance of Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, a variant of lichen planopilaris, as investigated through non-invasive imaging techniques.

In this case report, a 75-year-old man with benign essential blepharospasm and Parkinson disease experienced significant symptom relief from dystonia after starting finasteride, suggesting it may be a potential therapeutic option.

This study observed that melanogenesis in human hair follicles is linked to anagen phases, with melanocyte activity and enzyme expression being region-specific to the nascent bulb.

This review of existing literature reports that photobiomodulation shows high effectiveness and safety in treating dermatological conditions like acne, psoriasis, and alopecia, though standardized clinical trials are needed to further validate its therapeutic benefits.

This case report identified lash ptosis as a potential complication of latanoprost therapy in a 61-year-old man with ocular hypertension.

This study found that melatonin-loaded nanoparticles improved antidepressant effects and HPA axis regulation in pinealectomized rats, compared to free melatonin, through controlled-release properties.

A woman got a scalp condition from using latanoprost, but it improved after stopping the drug and starting other treatments.

This article reviews the side effects of topical latanoprost therapy, particularly the hypertrichosis and pigmentation changes of eyelashes and nearby skin, and reports no new clinical results.

This source explores melatonin's roles beyond circadian rhythm regulation, reporting its benefits in skin conditions like dermatitis, melasma, alopecia, psoriasis, and skin aging due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory properties, while highlighting the need for more trials on optimal dosing and long-term safety.

This phase 2a trial evaluated Samcyprone for common wart treatment and found that while a sensitization reaction is necessary for therapeutic response, its level does not predict wart clearance.

This study found that transfecting keratinocytes with the 1α-OHase gene enhances local production of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, suggesting a potential new therapy for skin conditions like psoriasis without causing hypercalcemia or resistance.

This study reported that in men with androgenic alopecia, a distinct subclinical hyperpigmentation pattern was observed in the scalp, associated with baldness severity and possibly linked to local melanin production by pilosebaceous units.

This study found that UVA blocker-containing sunscreens instantly reduced follicular fluorescence due to porphyrins in facial skin, with the effect lasting for a few hours, influenced by sunscreen amount and formulation.

This pilot study employed in-vivo multiphoton microscopy to visualize pigment-producing melanocytes in vitiligo patients, aiming to enhance understanding of treatment impacts and potentially improve transplantation therapies.

This review examines PAK4 signaling pathways in prostate cancer, Parkinson's disease, and melanogenesis, focusing on the potential role of the PAK4-CREB axis, without reporting new clinical results.

This article reports a rare case of a postmenopausal woman with coexisting lichen planus pigmentosus and classic lichen planopilaris, alongside a review of related literature.

This study identified FP-1 as a highly specific extracellular matrix protein in follicular papilla cells, which may play a role in hair growth regulation during specific hair cycle phases.

This study observed that retinoic acid biosynthesis and signaling in hair follicles have a spatial and temporal regulation linked to distinct stages of the hair cycle in mice.

This study found that multiphoton microscopy effectively visualizes the microstructure of in vivo mouse skin, offering a clear view of various skin layers and components like corneocytes and collagen fibers.

This study found that RXR-alpha is strongly expressed in both normal and psoriatic human skin, suggesting it may play a role in the transition from proliferation to differentiation in epidermal keratinocytes.

This case report suggests that using encapsulated retinol in polylysine may effectively treat actinic keratosis with minimal irritation, potentially providing a safer alternative for frequent use.

In this study, polymeric micelles containing retinoic acid were found to improve targeted delivery to hair follicle structures in human skin more efficiently than a marketed retinoic acid gel, suggesting potentially safer and more effective acne treatment.

This study found that topical alpha-terthienyl combined with UVA radiation rapidly induced dose-dependent cutaneous photosensitization in guinea pigs, suggesting potential for photochemotherapy in skin disorders without future carcinogenic risks.

This study engineered a bioluminescent yeast strain responsive to androgenic chemicals, demonstrating rapid and sensitive detection suitable for high-throughput screening and environmental monitoring.
