This study found that methylprednisolone can block IgG-induced keratinocyte detachment in an animal model of pemphigus vulgaris, potentially by increasing the synthesis and modifying adhesion molecules.

This research observed that triamcinolone was more effective at inducing remission in cats with pemphigus foliaceus without significant side effects compared to prednisone or its combination with chlorambucil.

This article discusses the potential role of nutritional ingredients, such as thiols and tannins, in triggering pemphigus, and reports no new empirical findings.

This study observed that combination therapy with prednisolone and azathioprine provided similar outcomes to prednisolone alone for treating pemphigus foliaceus in dogs, with over half achieving remission and significant improvement in another 25%.

This report describes two cases where pemphigus lesions developed at sites of cosmetic procedures, suggesting these treatments might trigger the disease and should be distinguished from other post-surgery complications.

This study observed that patients with pemphigus have a higher incidence of hypothyroidism, inflammatory bowel disease, and diabetes compared to the general population.

This case report suggests that tufted hair formation can occur in localized exudative inflammatory scalp lesions, as observed in a Japanese man with pemphigus vulgaris.

This study describes a patient with metastatic renal cell carcinoma who experienced a recurrence of pemphigus vulgaris after receiving interleukin 2 immunotherapy, suggesting a possible link between the treatment and autoimmune disease recurrence.

This study suggests that trichoscopy may assist in diagnosing pemphigus, particularly for scalp-specific lesions, by identifying certain characteristic features.

This study observed that in pemphigus vulgaris patients, hair loss and alopecic patches may result from anti-desmoglein autoantibody-mediated acantholysis and inflammatory changes, leading to non-scarring alopecia with potential for regrowth after treatment.

Genetic factors alone might not cause pemphigus vulgaris; other factors like birth complications and puberty may trigger it.

This study reports that the transgenic expression of Dsg1 in mice rescued the severe B6-Dsg3−/− phenotype and created a syngeneic mouse model of pemphigus vulgaris, which may aid in understanding autoimmunity mechanisms.

This case report describes dermoscopic features of pemphigus vulgaris on the scalp, highlighting that hair casts may suggest treatment adjustment for improved disease control.

This case report describes an 8-year-old German shepherd dog with pemphigus vulgaris whose symptoms were not adequately controlled by immunosuppressive therapy, but showed transient remission with heparin alone or combined with prednisolone.

This review summarizes recent findings on scalp involvement in pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus, highlighting diagnostic methods and their underlying histopathological, immunopathological, and clinical features, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that scalp involvement in pemphigus is linked to greater disease severity and longer times to achieve both clinical and serological remission, suggesting it may require more aggressive treatment.

This article discusses pemphigus vegetans of the scalp and references its clinical presentation and pathology, but it reports no new research findings.

This article discusses the roles of pediatrics and dermatology departments at Yale University School of Medicine, but reports no specific clinical results.

This study found that follicular acantholysis is a common histopathological feature in pemphigus, with differences in depth between pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus lesions that may aid in diagnosis.

This study suggests that local skin inflammation may enhance the deposition of autoantibodies in the skin, potentially affecting the severity of pemphigus lesions in mice.

This letter to the editor notes a case where alopecia developed as pemphigus foliaceus transitioned to pemphigus vulgaris; it provides no new experimental findings.

Hair changes may indicate disease activity in pemphigus patients.

This study found that a spontaneous deletion in the Dsg3 gene of mice leads to hypomorphic desmoglein 3 expression, resulting in severe immunodeficiency, cyclic hair loss, and wasting disease, without causing the blistering typical of pemphigus vulgaris.

This study observed two cases of pigmented epithelioid melanocytoma suggesting potential differing origins: one from a hair follicle's outer root sheath and another from an intradermal nevus.

This study in a rat model found that dietary rehabilitation with a high protein diet reversed symptoms of kwashiorkor, suggesting a role for free radicals in its development.

In this study, pediatric pemphigus was found to have a chronic but mostly benign progression, with initial remission from corticosteroids typically requiring additional immunomodulators for long-term control, and the authors advocate for using rituximab in these cases.

This case report describes a miniature dachshund with pustular dermatitis and other symptoms, developing pemphigus foliaceus after receiving afoxolaner, which was effectively managed with prednisone and cyclosporine.

This study developed and characterized new mouse models of Pemphigus that mimic different forms of the disease, but treatment with Methyl-Prednisolone showed only partial effectiveness.

This case study reports a rare instance of pembrolizumab-induced eyelash trichomegaly in a 63-year-old male patient, highlighting the importance for clinicians to be aware of such uncommon adverse effects to manage patient treatment effectively.

This case study presented a 16-year-old male with dermatosis neglecta and obsessive-compulsive disorder, where his skin condition improved after proper cleansing and psychiatric treatment, suggesting that DN may also indicate underlying psychiatric issues.
