In a conditional knockout mouse model, this study found that loss of the transcription elongation factor SPT6 in basal keratinocytes led to psoriasis-like skin inflammation and delayed wound healing, suggesting SPT6 plays a crucial role in maintaining epidermal immune quiescence by suppressing proinflammatory NF-κB signaling.

This review discusses the complex role of the EDA pathway in vertebrate skeletal development, emphasizing its interaction with other morphogenic pathways to influence skeletal diversity, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that in sheep, the microRNA oar-miR-377 regulates hair follicle development by targeting the SLC24A2 gene, and identified a genetic variation associated with wool quality, suggesting potential markers for breeding.

This study found that two unrelated domestic shorthair cats had novel DSG4 gene mutations causing defective hair shafts, representing the first report of pathogenic DSG4 variants in domestic animals.

This study reports that structural and biochemical analysis of steroid 5α-reductases clarifies how they mediate steroid reduction with NADPH, potentially aiding in designing targeted therapies.

Various skin conditions can be treated effectively with different methods, such as discontinuing certain drugs, using specific vaccines, applying creams, and changing lifestyle habits like smoking and drinking.

High blood pressure drugs often cause skin lupus, stopping the drug usually helps. A vaccine helps prevent genital herpes and HPV-16. More frequent light therapy clears psoriasis faster. No link was found between low iron and chronic hair loss.

This article reviews the consumption patterns and historical use of Allium vegetables like onions and garlic for their potential antimicrobial and cardiovascular benefits, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study discusses the epithelial-immune microenvironment in chronic skin diseases, such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis, and highlights current and future treatment strategies targeting inflammatory loops within these diseases.

In a clinical observation study, researchers documented a case of total alopecia in an 11-year-old child, highlighting a potential link to genetic conditions such as autoimmune polyendocrinopathy candidiasis-ectodermal dystrophy (APECED syndrome) requiring further genetic and serological testing to verify the diagnosis.

Researchers found a gene mutation responsible for a rare hair loss condition.

This study found that sympathetic nerves and arrector pili muscles form a niche that modulates hair follicle stem cell activity, revealing their role in hair follicle regeneration.

This article reviews the design and objectives of the Rotterdam Study, as well as summarizes major findings, without reporting new results.
