Mice with a virus similar to COVID-19 had skin damage, but a special treatment helped repair it.
research The Early Region of Trichodysplasia Spinulosa Polyomavirus Drives Proliferation, Altered Differentiation, and Ectopic Expression of Hair Follicle Differentiation Markers in Interfollicular Tail Epidermis
The early genes of a specific virus can cause abnormal skin cell growth and hair follicle changes.
research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
research The Antiandrogen Enzalutamide Downregulates TMPRSS2 and Reduces Cellular Entry of SARS-CoV-2 in Human Lung Cells
The drug enzalutamide may reduce the ability of the virus causing COVID-19 to enter lung cells.
research Basic Mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 Infection: Implications for Endocrine Systems
SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, can affect all endocrine organs and systems, altering their function and potentially leading to disorders. Factors like diabetes and obesity increase infection risk and severity. Understanding these effects is key for effective treatment.
research Trichodysplasia Spinulosa: A Benign Adnexal Proliferation with Follicular Differentiation Associated with Polyomavirus
Trichodysplasia spinulosa is a rare skin condition caused by a virus, treatable with antiviral medication.
research Intra-Host SARS-CoV-2 Single-Nucleotide Variants Emerged During the Early Stage of COVID-19 Pandemic Forecast Population Fixing Mutations
Some early COVID-19 mutations in patients predicted future common virus mutations.
research In Silico Screening of Moroccan Medicinal Plants with the Ability to Directly Inhibit the Novel Coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2
Some Moroccan medicinal plants may contain compounds that can inhibit the virus causing COVID-19.
research Telogen Effluvium and Covid-19
COVID-19 may cause hair loss due to the virus's effects and stress from the pandemic.
research Use of Antiandrogens as Therapeutic Agents in COVID-19 Patients
Antiandrogens might help prevent or treat COVID-19 by blocking the virus's entry into cells.
research Dermatological Manifestations of COVID-19 and Its Therapies: A Review
COVID-19 can cause skin symptoms that might help spot the virus early, and treatments for it can also affect the skin.
research Viral-Associated Trichodysplasia Spinulosa: A Case with Electron Microscopic and Molecular Detection of the Trichodysplasia Spinulosa-Associated Human Polyomavirus
A rare skin condition was confirmed to be associated with a specific virus in a young girl.
research Trichodysplasia Spinulosa: A Polyomavirus Infection Specifically Targeting Follicular Keratinocytes in Immunocompromised Patients
Trichodysplasia spinulosa is a rare skin disease in immunocompromised patients caused by a specific virus targeting hair follicle cells.
research Discovery of Clinically Approved Drugs Capable of Inhibiting SARS-CoV-2 In Vitro Infection Using a Phenotypic Screening Strategy and Network-Analysis to Predict Their Potential to Treat COVID-19
Four drugs were found that could potentially treat COVID-19 by inhibiting the virus in lab tests.
research Heterogeneous Red-White Discoloration of the Nail Bed and Distal Onycholysis in a Patient with COVID-19
A COVID-19 patient had unusual nail discoloration and nail separation possibly due to the virus's effects on small blood vessels.
research Clinical and Histopathological Features and Potential Pathological Mechanisms of Skin Lesions in COVID-19: Review of the Literature
COVID-19 can cause various skin lesions, which may result from the virus and immune response, and are not directly linked to illness severity.
research Clinical, Histopathologic, Immunohistochemical, and Electron Microscopic Findings in Cutaneous Monkeypox: A Multicenter Retrospective Case Series in Spain
Monkeypox skin lesions show full-thickness skin death and swollen skin cells, with the virus found in affected cells.
research A Response to 'Male Balding Is a Major Risk Factor for Severe COVID-19'
The authors suggest that scalp hair might protect against COVID-19 and call for more research on scalp health and the virus.
