research Trichophyton tonsurans‐induced kerion celsi with decreased defensin expression and paradoxically increased interleukin‐17A production
Terbinafine effectively treated kerion celsi despite disrupted immune responses.
research 560 Isolation of an “early” transit amplifying keratinocyte population in interfollicular human epidermis: a role for CD271 receptor
Scientists found a new type of skin cell that could help with skin repair and these cells work better with a certain protein.
research Abstract 5020: Characterization of epidermal stem cells in SKH1 hairless mice, a widely used mouse model to investigate ultraviolet radiation carcinogenesis.
SKH1 hairless mice have identifiable epidermal stem cells with specific markers.

research Human keratinocytes derived from the bulge region of hair follicles are refractory to differentiation
Hair follicle cells resist turning into skin cells.
research Actinic keratosis: a clinical and epidemiological revision
Actinic keratosis can lead to skin cancer, is more common in fair-skinned people, and can be reduced with sunscreen and treated effectively.
research A fast-growing skin lesion in a dialysis patient
A benign skin tumor grew quickly in a dialysis patient and was surgically removed.

Dermoscopy is useful for identifying skin lesions in dogs, with specific features distinguishing infundibular keratinising acanthomas from follicular cysts.
research Cytology of Skin Lesions in Dermatophytosis of Cats and Dogs
Cats and dogs with dermatophytosis show skin issues, with dogs having more severe symptoms.
research 876 Manipulation of stem cell divisional behavior: Selectively promoting asymmetric and symmetric keratinocyte divisions in vitro

research No evidence for follicular keratinocyte hyperproliferation in acne lesions as compared to autologous healthy hair follicles
Acne lesions don't show increased keratinocyte growth compared to healthy hair follicles.
research Characterisation of CD4+ stem cells of the skin and their role in skin homeostasis and tumourigenesis
CD4+ skin cells may be precursors to basal cell carcinoma.

A girl with a rare skin condition called Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans showed no significant improvement with treatment.
research Acitretin-Altered Squamous Cell Carcinoma
research Location and phenotype of human adult keratinocyte stem cells of the skin
Stem cells are in deep skin layers, while differentiating cells are in shallow layers.
research Acral lymphomatoid papulosis
A woman had a rare skin condition with recurring painful nodules that heal in 6 weeks, often without needing treatment.
research Atrichia with papular lesions resulting from mutations in the rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) hairless gene
Mutations in the hairless gene cause hair loss and skin cysts in rhesus macaques.
research KERATINS AND SKIN DISORDERS
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research Increased expression of PD‐L1 and PD‐L2 in dermal fibroblasts from alopecia areata mice
PD‐L1 and PD‐L2 may not effectively control immune activation in alopecia areata.
research Antigen presenting cells in the skin of a patient with hair loss and systemic lupus erythematosus.
Antigen presenting cells around hair follicles are crucial in SLE-related hair loss.

Skin-associated cartilage cells can influence hair growth by altering specific signaling pathways.
research Observation of cultured amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles by atomic force microscopy
Amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles are immature and likely don't transfer melanosomes to keratinocytes.
research Modulation of the differentiated phenotype of keratinocytes of the hair follicle and from epidermis
Hair follicle cells need complex interactions to fully differentiate.
