480-510 / 1000+ results research Correlation Between In Vivo Reflectance Confocal Microscopy and Horizontal Histopathology in Skin Cancer: A Review
Reflectance confocal microscopy reliably identifies skin cancer features like horizontal skin tissue sections.
research Giant Cells in Male Pattern Alopecia: A Histologic Marker and Pathogenetic Clue
Giant cells found in some male pattern baldness cases may help diagnose it and suggest hair is mistakenly seen as foreign by the body.
research Increased Retinol-Binding Protein 4 and Anti-RBP4 Antibody in Alopecia Areata
People with alopecia areata have higher levels of RBP4 protein and antibodies against it.
research An ERK-Dependent Molecular Switch Antagonizes Fibrosis and Promotes Regeneration in Spiny Mice
High levels of ERK activity are key for tissue regeneration in spiny mice, and activating ERK can potentially redirect scar-forming healing towards regenerative healing in mammals.
research The Skin and Subcutaneous Tissues: Conditions, Diagnosis, and Systemic Implications
The document concludes that skin and nail changes can indicate various underlying health conditions.
research Localization of Varicella-Zoster Virus Nucleic Acids and Proteins in Human Skin
The research found that chickenpox virus spreads in skin through blood then to skin cells, while shingles virus moves from nerves to hair follicle areas before infecting skin cells.
research Use of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells in Dermatological Research
iPSCs can help treat genetic skin disorders by creating healthy skin cells from a small biopsy.
research Eccrine Duct Dilation as a Marker of Cicatricial Alopecia
Enlarged sweat gland ducts may indicate scarring hair loss.
research Autologous Platelet and Extracellular Vesicle-Rich Plasma as Therapeutic Fluid: A Review
Autologous Platelet and Extracellular Vesicle-Rich Plasma (PVRP) has potential in enhancing tissue regeneration and improving hair conditions, but its effectiveness varies due to individual differences.
research Dermatopathology of Common Hair Problems
Examining scalp biopsies in different ways helps better diagnose hair loss types.
research A Rare Case of Poorly-Differentiated Endometrial Carcinoma in a Female-to-Male Transgender Man on Testosterone Therapy
Transgender men on testosterone therapy need ongoing gynecologic care due to potential cancer risks.
research Follicular Induction and CK20+ Merkel Cells Overlying Cutaneous Focal Mucinosis
Some skin growths with mucin can form hair follicles and resemble skin cancer, but a special stain can help tell them apart.
research Correlation Between Clinical, Histopathological, and Direct Immunofluorescence Findings in Cases of Cicatricial Alopecias
The study found no significant link between the symptoms, tissue analysis, and immunofluorescence results in scarring hair loss conditions.
research Skin Changes on the Face Caused by Over-The-Counter Cosmetic Creams: An Observational Study of Clinical and Dermoscopy Features
Over-the-counter cosmetic creams can cause skin damage on the face that is visible under dermoscopy and confirmed by tissue analysis.
research Superficial Granulomatous Pyoderma: A Localized Vegetative Form of Pyoderma Gangrenosum
Superficial granulomatous pyoderma is a unique, mild form of skin disease that often heals without strong medication and responds well to milder treatments.
research The Transverse Anatomy of Androgenic Alopecia
The study found that horizontal sections of scalp biopsies are better for analyzing hair loss, showing fewer hairs and more fine hairs in balding areas.
research Sustained Exosome-Guided Macrophage Polarization Using Hydrolytically Degradable PEG Hydrogels for Cutaneous Wound Healing: Identification of Key Proteins and miRNAs, and Sustained Release Formulation
Hydrogel with M2-derived exosomes improves wound healing by slowly releasing exosomes that help reduce inflammation and promote tissue repair.
research Abnormal Inner Root Sheath of the Hair Follicle in the Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome: An Ultrastructural Study
Loose anagen hair syndrome is caused by structural abnormalities in the hair follicle's inner root sheath.
research Histologic Comparison of Microscopic Treatment Zones Induced by Fractional Lasers and Radiofrequency
Different lasers and radiofrequency affect skin differently, important for dermatologists to choose the right treatment.
research Pseudoxanthoma-Like Late-Onset Focal Dermal Elastosis
A woman had a skin condition with increased normal elastic fibers, not related to other known disorders, likely due to aging.
research Distinguishing Diffuse Alopecia Areata from Pattern Hair Loss Using CD3+ T Cells
CD3+ T-cell presence is a reliable marker to tell apart alopecia areata from pattern hair loss.
research Familial Androgenetic Alopecia in Siblings with Normal Endocrinological Status
Two young siblings experienced hair loss without hormone issues or other skin problems.
research Commentary on the Use of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Cicatricial Alopecia
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) can improve hair loss in cicatricial alopecia cases, but treatment must be ongoing and results vary among patients.
research Dermoscopy Before and After Treatment of Cutaneous Larva Migrans: Through the Dermoscope
Dermoscopy may not show hookworms clearly, and comparing it with tissue studies could improve diagnosis accuracy for skin conditions caused by parasites.
research Study on Linear Dermatoses
