This study found that PGD2 inhibits hair follicle regeneration in mice through the Gpr44 receptor, suggesting that blocking PGD2 or Gpr44 may enhance skin regeneration after wounds.

This review discusses various surgical techniques for vitiligo repigmentation, noting that suction blister and split-thickness skin grafting have the highest success rates according to previous analysis, but reports no new results.

Burn reconstruction improves with new techniques, materials, and tissue engineering.

This review describes techniques for successful skin grafting and variations of the procedure, reporting no new clinical results.

This study found that grafting split-thickness human skin onto nude mice produces scars that mimic hypertrophic scar characteristics in humans, offering a useful model for studying scar formation and treatments.

This study identified four novel mutations in the C2orf37 gene among Woodhouse–Sakati syndrome patients, doubling known mutations, and found no significant link between isolated symptoms like deafness and dystonia and these mutations.

This abstract reviews the use and effects of various antiandrogens, finding clinical benefits in treating hyperandrogenism in women and improvements in urinary symptoms or cancer management in men, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the molecular mechanisms of Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome and evaluates current research trends, available mouse models, and prospects for developing therapies, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, a new cell-tissue technology using a patient's own skin to create a full-thickness skin autograft successfully treated a chronic wound larger than 200 cm², achieving complete functional skin coverage within 12 weeks and maintaining results at a 6-month follow-up.

This study found that overexpression of sPLA2-X in mice was associated with alopecia and hair follicle abnormalities, highlighting its potential role in hair follicle homeostasis.

This article provides departmental contact information for Dr. Dirk M. Elston at the Geisinger Medical Center and reports no research findings.

This review discusses the roles of various PLA2 enzymes in skin health and disease, highlighting potential pathways for future diagnosis and therapy, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the roles of lesser-known secreted phospholipase A2 isoforms in various biological processes, such as immune suppression, metabolic regulation, epidermal hyperplasia, and male reproduction, without reporting new clinical findings.

This study documented the use of 41 plant species in the West Bank for treating hair and scalp disorders, highlighting their folkloric significance and potential for new cosmetic and cosmeceutical products.

This study reported that squamous cell carcinomas of the scalp can become extraordinarily aggressive, highlighting the need for early diagnosis and careful use of treatment strategies like wide excision and radiation therapy.

This study found that using PRP injections in skin flap reconstructions and combining acellular dermal matrix with split-thickness skin grafts improved healing and reduced complications in the surgical treatment of hidradenitis suppurativa.

This study found that autologous noncultured epidermal suspension transplantation improved leukotrichia in 88.1% of treated vitiligo lesions without significant adverse events.

This study identified novel LSS mutations implicated in hypotrichosis simplex with or without neurodevelopmental abnormalities, highlighting the need for careful evaluation of synonymous mutations' potential pathogenic effects.

In this study, trichoscopic features aiding differential diagnosis of alopecia in Korean patients were found to be similar to those in Caucasians, but pigment pattern frequencies differed due to racial characteristics.

This case report presents the first genetically confirmed case of acrodermatitis enteropathica in Korea, identifying compound heterozygous mutations in the SLC39A4 gene in an 8-month-old boy.
