In this study, patients with generalized pustular psoriasis were classified into subgroups to better understand the disease's variability and assist in treatment selection, highlighting the role of localized infections in triggering flares.

This study suggests that the HCR risk allele within the PSORS1 locus may contribute to psoriasis susceptibility by altering gene expression related to skin structure and differentiation, although these changes alone might not result in clinical symptoms.

This study introduced a novel in vitro assay for tracking melanosome transfer between melanocytes and keratinocytes, facilitating the quantification of melanin transfer and supporting the role of filopodia as a conduit.

This study discovered nine human type I hair keratin genes, including a transcribed pseudogene, in a 190 kbp genomic region, revealing three gene subclusters based on sequence homologies.

This study identified that blocking the PTGDR2 receptor in human hair follicles in vitro and in mice reversed the hair growth inhibition caused by PGD2, suggesting a potential approach for treating alopecia.

This study found that vismodegib promotes Basal cell carcinoma regression by inducing tumor differentiation but leaves a small population of quiescent cells that can drive relapse, which can be eliminated by adding a Wnt signaling inhibitor.

In laboratory and artificial skin model experiments, this study found that plant-derived PDRN from Korean ginseng effectively promoted skin cell regeneration and strengthened the skin barrier, suggesting a sustainable alternative to animal-derived PDRN.

This study found that in rodent models, the ability of D1 dopamine receptor activation to impair sensory gating is facilitated by 5α-reductase type 1, which produces allopregnanolone.

This study investigated genetic and epigenetic markers for prostate cancer, reporting that certain genotype combinations may influence cancer risk or protection and identifying GSTP1 promoter methylation as a strong prognostic and diagnostic marker linked to tumor aggressiveness.

This study demonstrated that PGF 2α significantly stimulates hair growth in human hair follicles via a receptor-driven mechanism, with a notably stronger response in intermediate follicles than in terminal ones, suggesting potential clinical significance for conditions like alopecia.

This study found that p21 is much more highly expressed in normal melanocytes compared to melanoma cells, suggesting a potential target for preventing melanoma progression through cell cycle repair processes.

This study found that RAR-gamma 1 mRNA is present in multiple skin layers and structures, suggesting a role in maintaining and differentiating normal epidermis and skin appendages.

This study found that loss of the Pten gene in Lgr5+ hair follicle stem cells promoted squamous cell carcinoma formation through the Akt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

CCCA in women of African ancestry may be caused by PADI3 gene mutations and intense hair grooming.

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 case report examines a patient with myasthenia gravis, invasive thymoma, and paraneoplastic pemphigus associated with alopecia areata, notably without the usual mucosal involvement.

This study concluded that cyproterone acetate alone produced antiandrogenic effects on the female gerbil prostate, while ethinyloestradiol alone stimulated estrogenic activity, and their combination led to prostatic lesions.

This study found that HPV-150 and HPV-151 are rare genotypes with a preference for skin tissue, detected in some cases of skin lesions with generally low viral loads.

This study found that while the combination of oral propranolol and intradermal injections in guinea pigs led to psoriasiform changes, it did not fully mimic psoriasis.

This study found that although progerin expression in mouse skin causes significant nuclear shape changes in keratinocytes, it does not result in alopecia or common skin abnormalities seen in human Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome.

The enzyme PA-PLA1α is important for proper hair follicle development.

A new gene mutation may allow some piebaldism patients to regain skin color in white patches.

In this study, clinically used preoperative skin preparations with povidone iodine and chlorhexidine gluconate did not meet FDA log-reduction standards for bacterial bioburden in a porcine model, suggesting persistent infection risks.

This study identified several genes highly expressed in germ-line stem cells that are also common in hematopoietic stem cells, potentially aiding the exploration of fundamental stem cell commonalities.

This study found that valproic acid promoted hair re-growth in C3H mice by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, suggesting its potential as a treatment for alopecia.

This review discusses pyrene excimer nucleic acid probes for detecting biomolecules and protein-DNA interactions and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that the enzyme encoded by Dgat1 acts as a retinol acyltransferase in murine epidermis, protecting against retinoid toxicity and alopecia by preventing retinol accumulation.

This study found that mutations in the K17 gene underlie both pachyonychia congenita type 2 and steatocystoma multiplex phenotypes, regardless of the specific mutation involved.

In this study, PGD2 treatment in keratinocytes increased testosterone production via reactive oxygen species, suggesting a potential role for the NRF2 pathway in androgenic alopecia treatment strategies.

This study found that after 24 weeks of DPCP treatment for alopecia areata, there was a significant increase in new capillaries and hair regrowth detectable by videocapillaroscopy.
