This review discusses the relationship between zinc deficiency and skin disorders, emphasizing zinc transporters' roles, but it reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight potential benefits of regulating zinc levels via transporters.

This case report describes a child with acrodermatitis enteropathica and normal zinc levels who developed Kaposi's varicelliform eruption, highlighting the role of novel SLC39A4 variants and the importance of early zinc supplementation and antiviral prophylaxis.

This case report identified two new SLC39A4 mutations in twin patients with acrodermatitis enteropathica, suggesting that different mutations in this gene may lead to varying clinical manifestations of the disorder.

This research found that deleting the SLC3A2 gene in hair follicle stem cells disrupts their maintenance and proper differentiation, leading to hair follicle growth defects and altered skin regeneration through a YAP/Taz-dependent pathway.

This study identified four ferroptosis-related genes, SLC40A1, LCN2, CREB5, and SLC7A11, as potential diagnostic markers for alopecia areata, revealing reduced expression in affected patients compared to controls, with a predictive model showing high accuracy in differentiating the condition.
