This source describes the development, structure, and types of skin appendage tumors, noting both benign and malignant forms, potential associations with syndromes, and categories based on follicular differentiation.

In this study, germacrone from Curcuma aeruginosa showed anti-androgenic effects by inhibiting 5α-reductase, suggesting its potential as a lead compound for treating androgen-dependent disorders.

This study used Scanning Electron Microscopy to analyze South American mummy hair, revealing high levels of sulfur, calcium, and potassium, highlighting SEM's utility in anthropological investigations.

This study found that the simultaneous inactivation of pRb and p53 genes in mouse epidermis accelerated aggressive squamous cell carcinoma development via activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor/Akt pathway.

This study found that engineered skin substitutes made with skin-derived precursors and epidermal stem cells can regenerate hair follicles after grafting into nude mice.

Apoptosis may play a role in feather and hair development, SF-36 is better for mental health in skin patients, a psoriasis gene is found in Caucasians, eosinophils might not be crucial for some skin allergies, and changes in atopic dermatitis could increase skin sensitivity.

This Viewpoint discusses the utility of dermoscope in routine practice and how familiarity with dynamic vs static trichoscopy may address its limitations, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This article compiles information on various animal dermatological conditions and treatments but reports no new research findings.

This case study describes a young girl with sparse, brittle scalp hair and multiple keratotic papules, but no systemic or familial abnormalities were found.

This report describes a rare case of Trichostasis Spinulosa on the heel, an uncommon location for this type of lesion.

This study found that Florida manatees have unique types of specialized nerve endings in their vibrissae, which assist in their sensory and manipulative functions in aquatic environments.

This study demonstrates that a 3D-printed agarose microwell platform supports the growth of size-uniform, viable NSCLC cancer spheroids, and can effectively evaluate drug responses using limited tumor material from biopsies, particularly with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors gefitinib and osimertinib.

This case report describes a 16-year-old girl who developed Plica Polonica, a rare hair matting disorder, after using a homeopathic antidandruff shampoo, highlighting a potential link between shampoo use and the condition.

In this study, researchers found that trichothiodystrophy hair brittleness is linked to abnormalities in sulfur content and structural organization, making it prone to breakage.

This article describes two cases of plica neuropathica, a rare hair condition involving severe matting, and discusses possible contributing factors and diagnosis methods while reporting no new scientific results.

Trichoscopy helps tell different hair loss types apart using specific scalp and hair patterns.

This study found that the oral Janus kinase inhibitor CP-690,550 has a direct effect on reducing pruritus in patients with psoriasis, independent of clinician-assessed improvements in psoriasis severity.

In this study, researchers developed a novel nucleic acid nanoparticle system incorporating quercetin, which they found enhances functional hair follicle regeneration and maintains epithelial structure stability in androgenetic alopecia by regulating hair follicle stem and dermal papilla cells.

This paper reviews plica polonica, a rare hair disorder linked historically to poor hygiene and now to severe self-neglect or medical conditions, and outlines various treatment and preventive strategies but reports no new findings.
