This case report describes an 18-month-old male with ichthyosis follicularis alopecia photophobia syndrome who experienced transient improvement in skin symptoms after oral isotretinoin treatment.

This study indicated that abnormal Bmp signaling in β-catenin gain-of-function mutants is associated with anorectal malformations, shedding light on potential mechanisms underlying these congenital conditions.

This review explores the chemical composition and biological activities of essential oils from selected aromatic roots, highlighting their potential for various industries, though more research is needed to standardize their bioactive components.

This abstract does not contain specific research findings or results, but instead provides information related to the JAMA Dermatology journal's online platform and services.

This article presents a case of a 45-year-old African American man with firm, hyperpigmented papules and pustules on his cheeks and neck, persisting despite various shaving methods.

This study found that genetic variation in the KRTAP21-2 gene among crossbred Merino lambs was associated with differences in wool traits, particularly mean staple length.

This study found that microwave-assisted Opuntia humifusa extract improved antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties to counteract particulate matter's harmful effects on HaCaT keratinocytes.

This study found that a combination of Ziziphus lotus, Linum usitatissimum, and Opuntia ficus-indica extracts may reduce porosity and improve surface condition in bleached hair when used as a conditioner.

The supplement may improve hair growth and quality in women with mild to moderate hair loss.

This study found that an extract treatment showed similar efficacy and tolerability to calcipotriol/betamethasone ointment in reducing psoriasis severity and symptoms over 28 days in patients with mild-to-moderate plaque psoriasis.

This study found that in Merino-Southdown cross sheep, the presence of the C variant of the KRTAP26-1 gene was associated with higher wool quality, including increased wool yield and staple length.

This article discusses the importance of understanding the skin's structure and function for comprehending both healthy skin biology and skin disease pathophysiology, but reports no new findings.

This study suggests that variations in α-keratin proteins influence the structure and characteristics of wool fibers, indicating that keratin genes could serve as useful markers for identifying different wool traits.

This review discusses advances in understanding tickling sensations and proposes that knismesis hypersensitivity in autism spectrum disorder may be due to impaired sensory integration.

Hair feels different when touched and rubs together in various ways.

This study observed an association between intense itching in anterior chest keloids and an increased density of nerve fibers in the epidermis, alongside elevated expression of the pruritus mediator substance P, though no difference was found in Langerhans cells related to pruritus, location, or region.

This study observed that electrical stimulation of specific mechanoreceptive afferents in the orofacial region can evoke sensations consistent with their response properties, while others may require multiple afferents to access perceptual levels.

The conclusion is that "trichoknesis" should be recognized as a separate condition from trichodynia, characterized by itching instead of pain.

Capsaicin cream quickly relieved itching in two patients with brachioradial pruritus.

This article reviews potential causes and treatments for sensitive skin and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize neurogenic inflammation and cosmetic choices as key factors in managing the condition.

This review discusses neuropathic pruritus, detailing its clinical presentations and management strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that methylene blue staining and zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide techniques effectively revealed anatomical details of intraepidermal nerve fibre endings in the rat's mystacial pad, suggesting their potential role in mechanoreception.

This review discusses the characteristics, potential triggers, and challenges in diagnosing and treating sensitive scalp, reporting no new clinical results, and noting the need for further investigation.

In this study, researchers observed that intractable pruritus in anterior chest keloid lesions is linked to increased intraepidermal nerve fibre density and elevated expression of substance P, without differences in Langerhans cells across different keloid regions.

This study observed that mice lacking epidermal HSD11b1 had increased non-histaminergic itch and changes in skin nerve fibers, potentially linked to higher TSLP expression.

This study reveals that somatosensory neurons in mouse skin exhibit structural plasticity during hair-follicle regeneration, which may temporarily impair the reliability of encoding gentle touch.

This study found that methylene blue staining may reveal anatomical details of intraepidermal nerve fibre endings in the rat mystacial pad with greater clarity than the zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide technique.

Older adults may experience painful finger pitting due to nerve changes in aging skin, and treatments can help reduce symptoms.
