This study found that Schistosoma mansoni cercariae stimulate epidermal keratinocytes in mice, initiating pro-inflammatory responses and barrier repair mechanisms akin to those in wound healing.

This study explored a keratin, sodium alginate, and carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel modified with tannic acid and found it to have promising wound-healing qualities, including similar elasticity to human skin, antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, and effective water retention. These attributes suggest potential applications in biomedical engineering.

New skin substitutes for treating severe burns and chronic wounds are being developed, but a permanent solution for deep wounds is not yet available commercially.

This article reviews the history, methods, and complications of tissue expansion and serial excision for scar revision in the head and neck, and reports no new findings.

This review highlights that the NLRP3 inflammasome is a promising therapeutic target for cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury and discusses recent advancements in using natural plant products to modulate this pathway and reduce inflammation.

This study investigated lipid loss in hair caused by surfactants and found that surface and internal modifications can significantly protect different lipids from depletion, with internal modification preventing 52.0 to 81.3% of lipids in certain groups.

This article reviews the complex challenges of managing scalp and cranial deformities post-trauma or surgery, advocating for better multidisciplinary approaches to enhance outcomes, but reports no new results.

This review highlights promising recent advances in therapies for epidermolysis bullosa, including gene therapy and stem cell approaches, but reports no definitive cures and emphasizes the need for further research.

This article reviews the development and use of induced pluripotent stem cell models and artificial organoids for studying neurodevelopmental disorders, but it reports no new clinical findings.

Blocking adenosine A2B receptor may prevent or treat hearing loss.

This study identified a new clinical variant of adult adrenomyeloneuropathy characterized by hypoplasia and agenesis of the corpus callosum, associated with a novel ABCD1 gene mutation.

This article reviews the potential of PRP as a treatment for spinal pain but calls for established use guidelines and protocols before wider clinical adoption, with no new clinical results reported.

In this study, researchers identified a novel STS gene (c.287G > A; p.W96*) mutation in Pakistani individuals with X-linked ichthyosis, expanding the understanding of its genetic causes and aiding in genetic counseling.

This review discusses the use and sustainability challenges of luxury animal hair fibers in the fashion industry and reports no new research findings.

This study found that while new treatments like Optilume, Rezum, and Aquablation have minimal risks of sexual dysfunction, they offer less improvement in lower urinary tract symptoms compared to traditional surgeries like TURP, though Aquablation does reduce ejaculatory dysfunction more effectively than TURP.

In this study, researchers observed that the combination of hair progenitors and their micro-niche changes every three days in mouse zigzag hair, and disruptions in specific genes affected this rhythm, highlighting the importance of this periodic change for normal hair morphology.

This article discusses the systematic diagnostic evaluation of secondary amenorrhea and provides guidance for referral considerations; it reports no new research findings.

In this study, researchers highlighted the high global prevalence of immune-related skin diseases like dermatitis and psoriasis, noting that females are disproportionately affected, emphasizing the need for tailored public health strategies based on sex and region.

This study observed that nail abnormalities often indicate underlying dermatological or systemic conditions, with psoriasis and infections being the most common causes among patients.

Among families with pediatric brain disease, this study identified over 200 novel genetic causes, revealing potential treatment points using drug repurposing or nutritional supplementation.

This review suggests that herbal hair serums, which are claimed to nourish the scalp and promote hair growth, may effectively treat alopecia without adverse effects, offering a natural alternative to allopathic medications that often have side effects.

This review discusses the role of epithelial–mesenchymal transition in cutaneous fibrotic disorders and highlights potential molecular targets for therapy, but reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights that exosomes from adipose-derived stem cells, particularly those enriched with circ-Ash1l, can inhibit ferroptosis and reduce UVB-induced skin aging by delivering GPX4-promoting signals to damaged cells, thus offering a potential regenerative therapy for photoaged skin.

This study observed that 2.5% of patients with mycosis fungoides or Szary syndrome experienced alopecia, predominantly within skin lesions, with scalp metastases from other cancers also potentially causing hair loss, highlighting the diagnostic value of trichoscopy in differentiating alopecia types.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma therapy led to greater improvements in hair density and patient satisfaction compared to topical 5% Minoxidil in androgenetic alopecia patients over 12 weeks.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma might support brain health by enhancing glial cell function and modulating immune responses in inflammation, indicating potential as a treatment for brain disorders.

In this study, baricitinib treatment for severe alopecia areata was associated with complete hair regrowth after 12 months in two patients, suggesting it may be an effective alternative to traditional therapies, although safety and clinical implications need careful consideration.

In this case report, researchers describe a 22-year-old male with a unique presentation of Senior-Løken Syndrome due to a NPHP4 mutation, exhibiting atypical symptoms like cryptorchidism, alopecia, and potential syndromic overlap with Rothmund-Thomson Syndrome, suggesting complex genetic interactions and expanding the phenotypic spectrum of ciliopathies.

This review highlights the potential of ultrasound-assisted gene therapy for tissue regeneration by improving gene delivery efficiency through techniques like microbubble-mediated sonoporation. The authors discuss its applications in musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and neural regeneration, while addressing future challenges in optimizing this non-invasive approach for clinical applications.

In this study, researchers explored drug repurposing as a potential strategy for treating psoriasis and identified Pioglitazone, Trimipramine, and Dimetindene as promising candidates for this indication, based on molecular docking and predictive algorithms.
