In this study, researchers developed an axolotl skin-derived extracellular matrix scaffold that enhanced wound healing in mice by promoting skin regeneration and reducing fibrosis, offering potential as a regenerative biomaterial for clinical use.

This review examined how COVID-19 infection and vaccination might affect sexual activity, sex hormones, and menstrual cycles in men and women, and found no evidence of COVID-19 transmission via semen.

This letter to the editor discusses a potential link between new onset alopecia areata and SARS-CoV-2 infection, but reports no new clinical results.

In this case report, researchers observed that a female patient with severe hidradenitis suppurativa experienced complete resolution of her lesions after starting intramuscular exogenous testosterone as part of gender transition, suggesting its potential role in disease remission when other treatments were ineffective.

In this study, researchers identified 19 genetic risk loci and highlighted 16 candidate causal genes, including immune-related ones, associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, emphasizing the role of specific immune cells like T cells and NK cells in its pathogenesis.

This review explores the shared pathogenesis of alopecia areata and vitiligo and compares treatment responses, noting that hair regrowth in alopecia areata occurs more rapidly than skin re-pigmentation in vitiligo, possibly due to differences in stem cell biology and treatment effects on melanocytes.

Low m6Ascores in melanoma predict better survival and response to immunotherapy.

In this study, baseline neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was associated with predicting early trichoscopic response in patients undergoing PRP-based treatment for non-scarring alopecia.

JAK inhibitors improve hair growth in alopecia areata, especially in patchy types.

This review reports that sex-related differences in pharmacological response have been observed in SARS-CoV-2 infection, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus, with implications for treatment strategies; for example, men may respond better to genomic vaccines for SARS-CoV-2, while women may benefit more from certain antiviral medications.

This study observed that in vitro exposure to dihydrotestosterone worsened COVID-19 spike protein-induced endothelial injury, while spironolactone showed potential in reducing this effect, suggesting a rationale for further evaluation in treating COVID-19.

This review discusses recent advancements in bone tissue engineering, emphasizing a shift from passive to smart responsive antibacterial strategies to prevent implant-associated infections, and highlights AI's role in optimizing bone scaffold design for personalized, infection-free implants.

This review discusses the role of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) in radiation response and highlights their potential as biomarkers for assessing radiation damage, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that cytokine and EGF stimulation leads to increased MMP-9 production in hair follicles, a process involved in hair follicle involution associated with alopecia.

This review discusses the role of fibroblast heterogeneity in determining skin scarring versus regeneration and reports no new results, highlighting opportunities for developing antiscarring therapies.

The authors discussed that SOCS1 and SOCS3's inhibition of JAKs plays a significant role in the development of JAK inhibitor drugs for skin inflammatory diseases and malignancies.

This study found that γδ T cells in the skin contribute to wound healing after vaccinia virus infection by promoting cytokine and growth factor induction, without affecting virus replication control.

This study characterized two siblings with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets and a mutation in the vitamin D receptor, finding no immune-related disorders despite a defective T cell response to vitamin D.

This study found that in patients with severe alopecia areata, those who responded early to baricitinib treatment typically had a lower baseline Severity of Alopecia Tool score, shorter disease duration, and higher erythrocyte sedimentation rate, suggesting these factors may predict therapeutic success.

This study found IL-17/IL-36 signaling to be predominant in both endotypes of Netherton syndrome, with distinct molecular profiles between NS-ILC and NS-SE lesions, offering potential therapeutic targets.

This study found that elevated tissue RBP4 levels correlate with disease severity in alopecia areata and decrease after effective baricitinib treatment, while the rs3758539 polymorphism is linked to disease susceptibility but not to treatment response.

In this study, researchers found that people with Parkinson's disease showed higher levels of inflammasome proteins, including caspase-1, ASC, and IL-18, compared to healthy individuals, suggesting these proteins as reliable biomarkers for inflammation in PD.

This study suggests that male sex and androgenic steroid use increase the risk of atrial arrhythmias in individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, especially those with desmosomal gene mutations.

This study found that patients with telogen effluvium had a higher rate of acute hair loss and lower monocyte counts if they had contracted COVID-19 prior to hair loss onset.

In this study, a 49-year-old female with metastatic adrenocortical carcinoma experienced an abscopal effect following pulse electric field ablation, suggesting potential as an adjunct to systemic immunotherapy for liver tumors.

This study found that using an LED array with an 863 nm wavelength delayed tumor development and reduced systemic inflammatory cytokines in DMBA/TPA-induced mouse skin tumors, suggesting potential but limited benefits of light therapy.

In this study, researchers found that using a 5-α reductase inhibitor may reduce inflammation-related cytokines associated with T-helper cell 1 and T-helper cell 2 in prostate tissues after surgery, but it did not affect those related to Th17 cells.

In this study, researchers found that a specific Sargassum horneri extract processed via low-temperature pulverization improved burn wound healing in mice by enhancing re-epithelialization and reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic candidate.

This study discovered that TREM2 macrophages influenced by squalene play a role in acne's development by hindering the killing of Cutibacterium acnes, helping explain why benzoyl peroxide is effective in treatment.

In this study, IFN-γ-stimulated iPSC-derived mesenchymal stem cell extracellular vesicles improved atopic dermatitis in mice by reducing Th2 cytokine activity, suppressing inflammation, and restoring skin barrier function, as evidenced by decreased itching and inflammatory markers.
