In this study, researchers developed a novel 3D bio-printed skin scaffold using exosomes from liver cells, which enhanced wound healing by promoting cell growth, angiogenesis, and reducing inflammation in large skin injuries, suggesting potential applications in treating chronic skin conditions.

This study found that Punica granatum ethanolic leaf extract may alleviate skin fibrosis in rats by modulating inflammation-related pathways and reducing dermal alterations.

In this study, researchers conducted a large genome-wide association meta-analysis and found 30 significant genetic loci linked to the risk of dermatophytosis, shedding light on the roles of keratin biology, skin barrier defects, immune dysfunction, and obesity in the disease.

This study found that administering human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) in a mouse model of psoriasis improved skin lesions and reduced inflammation-related markers, suggesting potential therapeutic benefit and safety for treating psoriasis, and identified specific gene targets involved in the treatment's mechanism.

This study used a mouse model to reveal that S100A4-positive cells, specifically fibroblasts and immune cells, play a crucial role in nipple development, essential for successful lactation, despite no issues with mammary morphology or milk production.

In this study using mouse models, researchers found that elevated IL-17a in aged olfactory epithelium impairs olfactory function, while IL-17a inhibition promotes regeneration and mitigates age-related decline.

This study found that a combination of five medicinal plants traditionally used in Chinese medicine significantly improved skin repair and delayed aging markers in laboratory models, suggesting synergistic anti-aging effects over individual ingredients.

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.

Using high-throughput proteomics, this study identified 34 differentially expressed proteins in the lesional skin of adults with scalp psoriasis, suggesting a cytokine storm response linked to bacterial antigens.

This review highlights how the development of forensic DNA phenotyping systems like IrisPlex, HIrisPlex, and HIrisPlex-S has advanced criminal investigation by accurately predicting physical traits such as eye, hair, and skin color from DNA, thereby improving the precision and relevance of forensic applications.

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.

In this study, human dermal papilla cells exposed to wasabi leaf extract showed changes in cytokine-related gene expression, which the authors suggest could help clarify the biological effects of wasabi.

This study discusses the potential health risks associated with occupational radiation exposure, including genetic mutations, cancers, and other diseases, and outlines strategies for prevention and occupational health safety.

In this study, researchers observed that individuals with alopecia areata exhibited significant changes in scalp microbiota diversity and composition, which were linked to disease severity and inflammation markers, though it remains unclear if these microbial shifts are a cause or a result of hair loss.

This study examined the molecular communication in psoriasis cells, highlighting unique immune cell interactions and identifying new features of the hair follicle cell-psoriasis axis. It suggests the potential for targeted therapies at the single-cell level to improve psoriasis treatment.

This review highlights the crucial role of histone modification in the pathogenesis and treatment of chronic inflammatory skin diseases, and explores therapeutic strategies targeting these epigenetic changes to improve management of conditions such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.

This study constructed a comprehensive atlas of prenatal human skin, revealing that innate immune cells, such as macrophages, play a crucial role in skin morphogenesis by interacting with non-immune cells, influencing hair follicle formation and angiogenesis beyond their traditional immune functions.

In this study, researchers found that the synthetic stress hormone dexamethasone caused opposite effects on hair growth-related proteins, reducing SFRP2 and increasing SFRP3, which respectively stimulate and inhibit hair follicle cell proliferation in human dermal papilla cells.

This study concluded that mesenchymal stem cells from adipose tissue harvested using laser-assisted liposuction with selective photo-stimulation are as effective and low-risk for cell therapy as those obtained through conventional liposuction, based on their differentiation potential, cellular proliferation, and cytokine expression.

The study found that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells obtained via laser-assisted liposuction with selective photo-stimulation are comparable in differentiation potential and tumorigenic risk to those from conventional liposuction for cell therapy applications.

This study demonstrated that antigens from the skin bacterium Staphylococcus epidermidis can stimulate CD8+ T cells, which in turn enhance wound healing.

In this study, botulinum toxin type A injections reduced the severity of treatment-resistant scalp psoriasis in more patients compared to placebo over a 12-week period.

Hair papilla cells are crucial for blood vessel development in hair follicles, affecting hair growth and loss.

In this study, researchers found that alopecia areata is linked to immune cell activation against hair follicle autoantigens and is associated with heart changes and cardiac marker alterations in humans and mice.

This research found that androgen bioactivity plays a role in normal female sexual differentiation, suggesting females develop within a significant androgenic environment, with implications for understanding conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This review assesses platelet-rich plasma therapy for androgenic alopecia in women and found it may improve hair thickness and quality, but more studies are necessary to confirm its psychological benefits.

The LTF gene may help predict and manage nonspecific orbital inflammation.

TNF-a may not be as involved in certain types of hair loss as previously thought.

Some drugs for inflammation may cause psoriasis-like hair loss.

This case series highlights that anti-TNF agents, though beneficial for autoimmune conditions, can cause a rare adverse reaction of psoriasiform alopecia areata, stressing the importance of specific histopathological features for accurate diagnosis and better management to avoid unnecessary drug discontinuation.
