Photodynamic therapy was effective in treating multiple scalp basal cell carcinomas with minimal side effects and good cosmetic results.

This study found that cutaneous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate hydrolase activity may be carried out by an enzyme different from the classical tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase in human and mouse skin.

This study shows that BMP2 and BMP7 play complex, necessary roles in feather development by regulating dermal condensation formation, with BMP7 acting early as a chemoattractant and BMP2 halting cell migration.

This study found that photodynamic therapy achieved permanent removal of nonpigmented hair in mice after multiple sessions, unlike laser treatment, which was not effective for nonpigmented hair.

In this study, an 8-year-old girl with alopecia totalis experienced complete hair regrowth on the OMP regime after incomplete results with a previous treatment of oral betamethasone.

This study found that silencing clock genes BMAL1 or PER1 in human hair follicles increased melanin content and melanocyte activity, suggesting these genes influence pigmentation.

This study reported that gain-of-function mutations in TRPV3 lead to hair loss in mice by disrupting inner root sheath keratinocyte differentiation, ultimately causing follicular keratinocyte stem cell exhaustion and permanent follicle disruption.

This study found that phosphodiesterase inhibitors may suppress the proliferation of benign prostatic hyperplasia epithelial cells by modulating CCL5 levels in low androgen conditions.

In this study, researchers found that thrombin may influence cyclic hair growth through its receptor PAR-1, although it does not seem to stimulate dermal papilla cell proliferation physiologically.

This article discusses the diagnosis, etiology, and treatment of PTSD, highlighting the complexities and importance of effective psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy for reducing symptoms.

This study found that early treatment with estradiol or dihydrotestosterone significantly reduced prostate adenocarcinoma development in Lobund-Wistar rats, while later treatments were ineffective.

This study found that dexamethasone treatment inhibited the inflammatory response and the induction of ornithine decarboxylase activity in mouse skin after TPA application, although the effect on ODC was weaker during the hyperplastic stage.

This study suggests that the Grasp protein may play a role in regulating skin homeostasis following UVB exposure by influencing p53-mediated apoptotic responses in mice.

The demineralized bone matrix scaffold is better for cell attachment than the mineralized bone allograft.

This study identified a new gene, mrp4, in mice, which suggests it may have a unique role in the growth and development of hair follicles in the ears and tails.

This study reported that the novel AKT inhibitor CCT128930 demonstrated significant antitumor activity in human cancer cell lines and xenografts, highlighting its potential as an anticancer therapy.

This review found that 5α‐reductase inhibitors were associated with slightly increased rates of decreased libido, erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction, gynecomastia, and mood disorders compared to placebo, though their long-term effects remain unclear.

This study found that overexpression of PKCepsilon in transgenic mice reduced papilloma development but accelerated carcinoma formation in a skin tumor promotion model.

This study found that mesenchymal progenitor cells from human hair roots seeded onto polymer scaffolds stimulated the production of mineralized proteins, enhancing bone-like structures, with optimal results at a pore size of 35 µm.

This study concluded that the platelet rich plasma injectable competency assessment tool (PICAT) demonstrated strong validity, internal consistency, and inter-rater reliability for evaluating dermatology residents at PNS Shifa Hospital.

This review highlights the promising clinical outcomes of sacituzumab tirumotecan (sac-TMT), an antibody-drug conjugate for breast cancer that targets TROP2, demonstrating improved response rates and progression-free survival, with manageable safety concerns including primarily mild-to-moderate nausea and alopecia.

This case report describes a rare instance of a patient with trichotillomania also developing a gastric trichobezoar, leading to Rapunzel syndrome.

This study found that Polygonum multiflorum radix ethanol extract may promote melanin synthesis, potentially helping to turn gray hair back to black by enhancing antioxidant activity and increasing tyrosinase expression.

This review discusses the applications and advantages of LED-based photobiomodulation therapy for dermatological and cosmetic purposes but highlights existing challenges and health concerns while exploring future perspectives.

This study reported an unusual case of nail matrix involvement and trachyonychia in a child with juvenile pityriasis rubra pilaris, showing significant improvement with topical therapy and oral biotin.

This report highlights a case where dermoscopic observation of corkscrew hairs in a young woman led to the diagnosis of trichotillomania, emphasizing its role in distinguishing this psychiatric disorder from other forms of non-scarring alopecia and highlighting the importance of timely intervention.

This study found that long-term total parenteral nutrition in pediatric patients led to severe zinc deficiency, which improved with intravenous zinc therapy, highlighting the need for adequate zinc inclusion in nutritional solutions.

The researchers reported that basement membrane heterogeneity, especially laminin α5 composition, plays a critical role in distinct inter-tissue interactions and hair cycle regulation in mouse hair follicles.

This review discusses the potential of cold atmospheric plasma as a selective antitumor therapy for breast cancer but reports no clinical results, emphasizing its promise and the challenges to its use in precision oncology.

This study found that treatment with Bacillus amyloliquefaciens UCMB5113 significantly increased root hair growth in half of the tested Arabidopsis thaliana accessions.
