This study demonstrated that skin organoids derived from human stem cells can model cutaneous tuberculosis, revealing that fibrosis development in Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected organoids is linked to the PI3K-AKT and AP1 pathways in fibroblasts, and suggesting the potential for antifibrotic treatment evaluation.

This systematic review found that 5%–10% of COVID-19 cases develop long-term sequelae like neurocognitive impairment and cardiovascular damage, with higher risks in women and severe cases. Vaccination may reduce these risks, but further evidence is needed to confirm its efficacy.

This systematic review reported that probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, postbiotics, and dietary supplements may improve hair density and reduce dandruff severity in individuals with scalp disorders, potentially by modifying inflammation, oxidative stress, and microbiota composition; however, variability across studies limits the strength of these conclusions.

This report covers an internship at a pharmacy and hospital where multiple pharmaceutical activities were examined, including the preparation of individualized medication and the comparison of drugs for hypercholesterolemia treatment.

This study found that combining fire needle therapy with DHT treatment over eight weeks improved lesion severity, scar symptoms, quality of life, and reduced serum inflammatory cytokine levels in patients with moderate-to-severe acne vulgaris compared to using DHT alone.

This literature review discusses the challenges and potential strategies for creating fully functional hair follicles capable of active cycling, emphasizing the molecular mechanisms, signaling pathways, and innovative regenerative techniques, such as hair micropatterning and three-dimensional printing, crucial for optimizing hair follicle regeneration.

This review summarizes the application of genome wide association studies and selection signature analyses in sheep and goat breeding in China, highlighting genomic regions that influence traits like reproductive performance and body size.

This research highlights selenium's critical roles in various biological processes and underscores the potential health impacts of both its deficiency and excess, including increased mortality risk, poor immune function, and neurological issues.

In this case study, a 3-year-old with tinea capitis achieved complete resolution following treatment, highlighting hair salons as potential indirect transmission sites for infection and emphasizing trichoscopy's diagnostic value when traditional signs like Wood’s lamp fluorescence are missing.

This study found that the protein C4BPA may link insulin resistance and acne vulgaris by influencing lipid metabolism and inflammatory pathways, suggesting it as a potential mediator in the pathogenesis of both conditions.

In this study assessing post-menopausal Asian women, distinct shifts in Malassezia species prevalence on the skin were linked to increased inflammation and impaired skin barrier function, potentially driving disorders like psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis.

According to this worldwide systematic review, psoriasis is a prevalent disease with adult prevalence ranging from 0.53% to 11.48%, more common in older populations and with substantial knowledge gaps in low and middle-income countries.

This study consisted of a pharmacy master's thesis detailing practical experiences during a hospital and community pharmacy internship and scientific investigations into the off-label use of dutasteride for androgenetic alopecia and oral vaccines for urinary tract infection prophylaxis, emphasizing therapeutic applications and mechanisms of action.

In this study on mice, researchers observed that dermal white adipose tissue (dWAT) plays a key role in regulating skin inflammation and tissue repair; however, reduced expression of certain cytokines in obese mice may hinder these processes, indicating potential metabolic disruptions in dWAT during inflammation.

This literature review reports that mesenchymal stem cell-derived secretome, including conditioned medium and extracellular vesicles, shows promise as an effective treatment for various diseases in animal and human in-vivo models, with ongoing clinical trials and recommendations for future research discussed.

This review highlights that vitamin D is increasingly recognized for its roles in skin health, including treatment of psoriasis, potential applications in conditions like atopic dermatitis, and possible prevention of skin malignancies, as observed in various studies linking low levels to autoimmune skin diseases.

This review explores the inflammatory pathogenesis and clinical presentation of hidradenitis suppurativa, highlighting the complexity of treatment and the impact on patients' quality of life, while also examining emerging therapeutic options.

This study investigated the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori in patients with gastritis in Southern Iraq, but the abstract does not report any specific results.

This study found that AP-2α and AP-2β transcription factors are crucial for maintaining adult skin homeostasis, with their inactivation in keratinocytes leading to impaired differentiation, hair abnormalities, and inflammation, highlighting their key regulatory roles.

Pharmacists play a crucial role in patient care and education.

A Western diet may increase acne risk, while a Mediterranean diet and certain supplements can help reduce it.

This review article discusses studies showing that extracellular nucleic acids play a role in tissue regeneration by triggering sterile inflammation through endosomal toll-like receptor activation, but notes that the regulatory transition from inflammation to proliferation phases remains incompletely understood.

T cells and bacteria in the gut and skin help maintain health and protect against disease.

Vitamin D is crucial for skin health and managing skin diseases.

The researchers reported that DHT may reduce the inflammatory responses induced by C. acnes in androgen-sensitive human sebocyte cells, suggesting a potential link between androgens and infection in sebaceous disorders.

This review traces the historical understanding and treatment of acne across ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Roman civilizations, but provides no new clinical findings.

This study found that Mentha suaveolens aqueous extract activated Nrf-2 and increased detoxifying enzyme expression in keratinocytes, providing protection against oxidative stress without cytotoxicity.

This study found that claudins CLDN1 and CLDN3 are crucial for maintaining proper hair follicle structure in mice, and their dysregulation may lead to telogen hair loss.

This study found that acne lesions and nonlesional skin in mild-to-moderate acne patients showed significant Th17-skewing and increased antimicrobials, suggesting systemic targets like IL-17/IL-23/IL-36 could be therapeutic.

This study found that terminally differentiated effector memory Vδ1T-cells and their cytotoxic activation markers were elevated in alopecia areata patients, suggesting these cells may contribute to its early pathogenesis.
