A 65-year-old man developed a serious skin cancer linked to a drug he was taking for a fungal infection after a bone marrow transplant.

TCHHL1 is a protein important for hair growth, found in hair follicles.

This study found that most hair shaft abnormalities can be accurately diagnosed using a handheld dermoscope in a clinical setting.

This study suggests that increased amounts of less stable disulfide conformers in hair shafts may be linked to the brittleness observed in trichothiodystrophy.

ATR12-351 ointment safely delivers LEKTI protein to the skin, reducing enzyme activity in Netherton syndrome.

A man's skin cancer improved and some of his hair grew back after treatment with a special light therapy and a medication.

A deep learning model was developed to help diagnose trichothiodystrophy by analyzing hair patterns.

This review observed limited evidence of clinically significant benefits from treatments for acute central serous chorioretinopathy, which often resolves spontaneously, but identified PDT and micropulse laser as the most promising for further trials.

In this case study, trichoscopy was found to be a valuable non-invasive tool for diagnosing dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, enabling early detection and intervention to prevent disease progression and reduce the need for invasive procedures.

In this study, free flaps, specifically the ALT-free tissue transfer, were found to be safe and reliable for reconstructing large scalp defects requiring both scalp and skull repairs, with consistent results observed in clinical applications.

In this study, CTCF was found to play essential roles in epidermal differentiation and skin barrier formation, simultaneously acting as a suppressor of epithelial inflammatory responses in mouse skin.

The researchers reported that TGM2 appears to play a crucial role in sebocyte differentiation and may act as a negative regulator of lipid metabolism in sebaceous glands.

In this case report, a 72-year-old female with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome showed significant improvement in symptoms and gastrointestinal polyps after hormone therapy and additional treatment.

This case study reports the rare occurrence of widespread soft-tissue calcification in a young patient with SLE, suggesting that 99mTe-phosphate compounds could help diagnose this complication.

In this case study, a 78-year-old Japanese woman with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome experienced mesenteric lymphadenopathy, which reduced in size after treatment with the corticosteroid prednisolone. This suggests that mesenteric lymphadenopathy, though uncommon in CCS, may respond to steroid therapy.

This paper reports a single case of lichenoid cutaneous sarcoidosis that was unresponsive to standard treatments but showed marked improvement with the administration of oral tranilast.

This study identified biallelic variants in the LSS gene as a possible genetic cause of palmoplantar keratoderma-congenital alopecia syndrome type 2, highlighting the role of cholesterol synthesis in skin cornification.

This case presentation describes an adult with tinea capitis and related symptoms who was found to have a Trichophyton gypseum infection.

This article reviews cultural differences in the incidence of hair-thread tourniquet syndrome and finds it may be less prevalent in Iranian children compared to Europe, possibly due to social and cultural factors.

This report describes a rare case of Trichostasis Spinulosa on the heel, an uncommon location for this type of lesion.

This retrospective study found that adipose-derived stem cell-conditioned media increased hair density and thickness in women with female pattern hair loss over 12 weeks, with no severe adverse effects reported.

This report describes a 6-year-old girl with Turner syndrome and coexisting psoriasis, alopecia areata, and trachyonychia, suggesting a potential link between these conditions.

This study developed a reliable HPLC-UV/Vis method to determine aluminum phthalocyanine chloride in skin, supporting its use in skin permeation studies for photodynamic therapy of cutaneous tumors.

This study found that cortexolone 17α-propionate (clascoterone) effectively inhibited androgen receptor-regulated transcription and IL-6 synthesis in scalp cells, potentially making it a promising candidate for topical treatment of androgenetic alopecia.

In this case report, Triamcinolone Acetonide injections effectively improved mouth opening in patients with Oral Submucous Fibrosis, but both developed symptoms of Cushing's Syndrome, prompting the need for careful monitoring due to potential adverse effects when using this treatment.

This study found that a new compounded topical solution for alopecia was clinically tolerable and did not cause irritation, while also showing potential to enhance hair growth through fibroblast proliferation and gene expression.

This study explains that while trichothiodystrophy and xeroderma pigmentosum share genetic defects, TTD patients primarily exhibit issues in transcription initiation, not the increased skin cancer risk seen in XP.

This study provides definitive evidence that a homozygous mutation in the DSC3 gene causes skin fragility and hypotrichosis in humans.

This study reported that an HS-associated NCSTN mutation in iPSC-derived skin organoids led to altered hair follicle stem cell differentiation and increased expression of proteins linked to HS inflammation.

This report highlights the use of trichoscopy in diagnosing tinea capitis in a 17-year-old female with systemic lupus erythematosus, revealing specific trichoscopic features like corkscrew hairs, which confirmed a fungal infection leading to successful treatment with terbinafine.
