This study developed a validated murine model of hypertrophic scar contraction, demonstrating similarities to human skin and observing graft contraction and tissue characteristics over time.

In this case report, a 59-year-old woman experienced burning sensations and developed atrophic, hypopigmented, ivory papules and plaques on her palms and soles over three years, which worsened after walking for extended periods.

This study found that cortexolone 17α-propionate (clascoterone) effectively inhibited androgen receptor-regulated transcription and IL-6 synthesis in scalp cells, potentially making it a promising candidate for topical treatment of androgenetic alopecia.

This study suggests a potential role for S100A7 and IL-17 in the pathogenesis of lichen planopilaris.

In this study, Sox13 was identified as a novel marker for early hair follicle development and differentiation in mice, though it appears to be dispensable for overall epidermal and adnexal development.

This case study reports a patient with Rothmund-Thomson type congenital poikiloderma, showing primarily skin changes and hair loss, along with slightly elevated lysine and cystine levels in urine.

This report describes a case of scarring alopecia in a 7-year-old girl, highlighting the presence of inflammation without true sclerosis despite normal bone age and negative fungal tests.

This study developed and validated a highly sensitive method using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry for accurately analyzing nine neuroactive steroids in human serum, which could enhance understanding of disease pathophysiology and support new biomarker and therapeutic discovery.

This study evaluated the effects of topical glucocorticoids on human skin using non-invasive imaging methods and observed changes such as alterations in skin layer thickness, keratinocyte size, and collagen and elastin signal intensity.

In this research, experienced clinicians noted inconsistency in the reproducibility of the commonly used Hamilton-Ludwig scales for assessing pattern hair loss severity in photographic assessments, leading to the proposal of a new 5-point scale for staging female hair loss.

This study introduced a validated LC-MS/MS-based method for profiling long-term steroid concentrations in human scalp hair, offering potential applications in endocrinology research.

This study investigated a nanostructured system using PS-b-PAA diblock copolymer for incorporating the hydrophobic photosensitizer ClAlPc, finding it effective in causing cellular damage in Caco-2 cells under light while demonstrating no cytotoxicity without light, suggesting its potential use in photodynamic therapy.

This study reported that using photomnemonics facilitated accurate histopathologic interpretation of horizontal scalp sections in distinguishing between nonscarring and scarring alopecias by dermatopathologists and residents in a validation test.

This study suggests that targeting the increased expression of SIX1 in systemic sclerosis may be a viable strategy for addressing dermal fibrosis.

This study demonstrated that B-mode ultrasound and shear-wave elastography could differentiate individuals at risk of developing androgenetic alopecia from healthy individuals by assessing cranial subcutaneous tissue thickness and epidermis-dermis stiffness.

This study engineered a bioluminescent yeast strain responsive to androgenic chemicals, demonstrating rapid and sensitive detection suitable for high-throughput screening and environmental monitoring.

This study demonstrated that hiPSC-derived hair-bearing skin organoids lacked sufficient type VII collagen at the epidermal-dermal junction, indicating a need for further maturation to model certain forms of epidermolysis bullosa effectively.

This study found that the retinoic acid derivative Ro 10-9359 cleared psoriasis lesions in over half of the patients, but most experienced side effects, including skin issues and altered liver enzyme levels.

In this study, monoclonal antibody B72.3 showed selective immunoreactivity to specific types of normal canine epithelial cells, primarily those involved in mucin production.

This study found that the hair cortisol measurement procedure was reliable, unaffected by the choice of tubes, and that hair cortisol concentration correlated moderately with the number of intense aggressions experienced.

This paper reviews total skin electron therapy for mycosis fungoides and reports no new results; the authors focus on dose de-escalation's impact on toxicity and response rates.

A 72-year-old man was diagnosed with a rare skin form of Rosai-Dorfman disease after years of misdiagnosis.

This study found variation in erythema induction across skin types, suggesting different SSR dose responses and highlighting a potential model for tailoring anti-inflammatory treatments.

This study found a high concordance between subject-reported and clinician-reported Fitzpatrick Skin Phototypes, but 14% of subjects misjudged their skin type, often overestimating it.
