This article argues that prolactin may have a role in sebaceous gland function and suggests it could be a potential target for treating skin conditions, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers found that a PER3 gene SNP may be pathogenic for a new subtype of dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria, especially when combined with a SASH1 mutation.

This study found that actively targeted AN2728-loaded nanocarriers reduced inflammation and improved skin condition in a mouse model of psoriasiform inflammation compared to free drug and non-targeted nanoparticles.

This case report highlights the importance of considering pituitary stalk interruption syndrome as a potential diagnosis for patients with short stature, as early detection may allow those affected to achieve normal height.

This study in South Sulawesi Province developed a shampoo using ethanol extract from Pondoh salak fruit peel, which met physical stability tests and demonstrated strong inhibitory effects against Staphylococcus epidermidis and Candida albicans, with formulations ranging from 10% to 20% concentrations.

This study reports that in systemic sclerosis, CD34+ dermal fibroblasts transition to CD34−, podoplanin+, and CD90+ fibroblasts across the dermis, suggesting a role in unchecked fibrosis.

This study reports a method for fabricating biofunctional polymer fibers by using DNA-programmable cell-free protein synthesis integrated through solution blow spinning, enabling in situ protein production and potential applications in respirators, sampling swabs, and other advanced materials.

In this experimental study, mixing temperature and rate were found to significantly influence cream's physical properties, with mixing rate affecting spreadability and temperature affecting viscosity.

This study found mutations in the P2RY5 gene that are linked to autosomal recessive woolly hair in Pakistani families, implicating it in hair texture determination.

This study found that women with PCOS reported significant appearance-related distress and social anxiety, especially in social settings.

This article discusses the issues with the name "polycystic ovary syndrome" and proposes a new naming system to better reflect the condition's complex hormonal and metabolic abnormalities.

This study concludes that dietary L-serine supplementation shows promise as a long-term therapy for hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 1, reducing neurotoxic 1-deoxysphingolipid levels and improving symptoms in severe cases.

This study reports the first cases of recessive KRT17-related pachyonychia congenita involving all ectodermal derivatives in seven members of two consanguineous Pakistani families.

This study found that the catalytically inactive serine protease CAP1/Prss8 can still induce skin disorders in mice and is subject to inhibition by nexin-1, independent of its catalytic activity.

This study found that pemphigus-associated alopecia indicates severe and treatment-resistant pemphigus, with higher disease activity and antibody levels compared to patients without alopecia.

In this study, the novel topical agent PP405 showed favorable tolerability and increased hair density by over 20% in men with advanced androgenetic alopecia after eight weeks, suggesting a promising potential treatment pending further trials.

This study suggests that pili annulati is likely more common than traditionally thought, highlighting the importance of recognizing its characteristic clinical and trichoscopic features for accurate diagnosis.

This study found that mouse parents with uveitis may increase their offspring's susceptibility to experimental autoimmune uveitis, affecting immune processes and the severity of the condition.

This study concluded that 2-hour oral glucose tolerance tests are crucial for screening glycemic disorders in women with PCOS, as HbA1c was found to be an unsatisfactory tool for predicting glycemic disorders within this group.

This study found that root hair growth in Arabidopsis thaliana is stimulated by pathogenic Pseudomonas strains similarly to beneficial rhizobacteria, relying on ethylene signaling and an efficient exocyst-dependent secretory process.

In this study, oral calcium pantothenate was associated with improvement in the inflammatory phase of discoid lupus erythematosus of the scalp, with the most marked response observed in subacute cases.

This study found that collagen sponges with polyglycolic acid fibers support proper skin and hair follicle restructuring, suggesting potential usefulness for hair reconstitution research and clinical applications.

This study suggests that BBS7 is crucial for maintaining PDL homeostasis by supporting Sonic hedgehog signaling activity, with occlusal hypofunction leading to its downregulation and associated tissue changes.

In this study, the researchers successfully increased dipicolinic acid production in Bacillus subtilis by genetically modifying the spoVF operon, achieving a significant productivity improvement in the culture medium.

This study observed that Ptprq mutant mice exhibit significant abnormalities in hair bundle structure and vestibular dysfunction, suggesting similar issues may contribute to hearing loss and vestibular problems in humans with PTPRQ mutations.

This study reviews the emerging role of protein S-palmitoylation in dermatology, highlighting its impact on skin functions like inflammation and barrier maintenance, and evaluating its potential as a therapeutic target for skin disorders such as alopecia and psoriasis.

This study found that BBS7 is downregulated in occlusal hypofunctional periodontal ligament, suggesting it plays a crucial role in maintaining Shh signaling for PDL homeostasis.

This study found that a phosphorus starvation-insensitive mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana shows altered root growth and auxin responses under low phosphate conditions compared to wild-type plants, suggesting a role for LPR1 in regulating these traits.

This manuscript reports on the first case of perforating necrobiosis lipoidica in Colombia, marking the 19th documented case worldwide.

This article summarizes Dr. Alan Jacobs's presentation at the 2016 ISHRS World Congress but reports no new research findings.
