Researchers created a fully functional, bioengineered skin system with hair from stem cells that successfully integrated when transplanted into mice.

A specific mutation known for causing cancer is also found to cause a skin condition in a young girl.

Pregnancy often causes skin changes like darkening, stretch marks, and hair growth, which may improve after childbirth.

Overactive Wnt signaling in mouse skin stem cells causes acne-like cysts and shrinking oil glands, which some treatments can partially fix.

Skin infections and rashes are the most common skin problems in children.

A woman's scalp nodule was a common, harmless pilar cyst, treated by surgical removal.

Blocking BMP signaling causes hair loss and disrupts hair growth cycles.

Increased FGFR2b signaling, influenced by androgens, plays a role in causing acne.

TCDD disrupts skin stem cells, causing skin issues like chloracne.

Skin cells show flexibility in healing wounds and forming tumors, with potential for treating hair disorders and chronic ulcers.

Losing both ERBB2 and ERBB3 receptors in mice causes significant skin problems and inflammation.

Pregnancy can cause various skin changes and diseases, with PUPPP being the most common skin condition specific to pregnancy.

New treatments and diagnostic methods for various animal skin conditions showed promising results.

Enobosarm may effectively treat androgen receptor-positive breast cancer with fewer side effects.

A woman had a unique skin growth with hair follicle, oil glands, fat cells, spindle cells, and nerve fibers.

Mice without certain skin enzymes have faster hair growth and bigger eye glands.

The enzyme 17β-HSD type 2 mainly performs oxidation in human sebaceous glands, which may help protect against acne.

The guide explains how to study human and mouse sebaceous glands using various staining and imaging techniques, and emphasizes the need for standardized assessment methods.

DHEA acts like a male hormone on rat skin glands and doesn't turn into female hormones there.

LGR5 and LGR6 are expressed differently in various skin tumors, which may offer clues about their origins.

The patient has a rare skin condition that shows features of two known disorders.

Hair follicles can be used to quickly assess drug effects in cancer treatment.

Most children with CNS tumors on targeted therapy had skin reactions, which were generally treatable without stopping the therapy.

The document concludes that identifying the specific cells where skin cancers begin is important for creating better prevention, detection, and treatment methods.

The conclusion is that accurately identifying folliculosebaceous tumors requires understanding their clinical signs and microscopic features.

New markers and pathways have been found in skin tumors, helping better understand and diagnose them.

Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.

Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.

Hormones, especially androgens, play a big role in acne, but most acne sufferers don't have a hormone disorder. Hormonal treatments, including birth control pills, can be very effective for women whose acne doesn't improve with regular treatments.

Androgens cause oil-producing skin cells with androgen receptors to mature and produce more oil.
