Skin problems can be caused or worsened by physical forces and pressure on the skin.
research What's new in the pathogeneses and triggering factors of bullous pemphigoid
Bullous pemphigoid is influenced by genetic factors, immune cell dysfunction, aging, and triggers, with treatment often improving symptoms.
research Mutations in KLHL24 Add to the Molecular Heterogeneity of Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex
Mutations in the KLHL24 gene cause skin blistering in epidermolysis bullosa simplex.
research Expression of MK6a dominant-negative and C-terminal mutant transgenes in mice has distinct phenotypic consequences in the epidermis and hair follicle
Mutant MK6a transgenes in mice cause blistering, hair loss, and potential human alopecia.
research Alopecia in Epidermolysis Bullosa
The document suggests that certain protein deficiencies and scalp blistering in Epidermolysis Bullosa may cause hair loss.
research Heterogeneous disease: A child case of lichen planus pemphigoides triggered by varicella
A child's rare skin disease was triggered by chickenpox.
research A novel PLEC nonsense homozygous mutation (c.7159G > T; p.Glu2387*) causes epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy and diffuse alopecia: a case report
A new mutation in the PLEC gene causes a rare condition with skin blistering, muscle weakness, and hair loss.
research A Heritable Keratinization Defect of the Superficial Epidermis in Norfolk Terriers
Norfolk Terriers have a genetic skin defect causing scaling and blisters due to a keratin issue.
research A novel mutation in the FERMT1 gene in a Spanish family with Kindler’s syndrome
Researchers found a new mutation in the FERMT1 gene in a Spanish family with Kindler syndrome.
research Alopecia developed in a transitional case from pemphigus foliaceus to pemphigus vulgaris
Hair loss can occur when pemphigus foliaceus changes to pemphigus vulgaris.
research Hemidesmosomes and Notch signaling regulate epidermal differentiation via delamination
Hemidesmosomes and Notch signaling help skin cells mature by moving them to the outer layer.
research Scarring Alopecia in a 66‐Year‐Old Woman
A rare autoimmune disease caused the woman's scalp blisters and hair loss, successfully treated with medication.
research A Comprehensive Review on Trichogram and Trichoscopy in Dermatology
Trichogram is useful for diagnosing hair disorders, but newer, non-invasive methods like trichoscopy are becoming more popular due to their sensitivity and ability to monitor treatment responses.
research SnapshotDx Quiz: May 2020
BIVV009 is a safe treatment for bullous pemphigoid that reduces C3 deposition without harmful side effects.
research Hair follicle stem cell progeny heal blisters while pausing skin development
Skin healing from blisters can delay hair growth as stem cells focus on repairing skin over developing hair.
research 441 RPGRIP1L facilitates desmosomal adhesion through suppressing PKCβII-mediated desmoglein endocytosis: Implication in pemphigus
RPGRIP1L helps skin cells stick together by blocking PKCβII, which can prevent skin blistering like in pemphigus.
research In this Issue
New findings on hair keratin, wound healing, and skin blistering were presented.
research Clinical Patterns and Frequency of Dermatological Manifestations Associated with Pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause various skin changes, with stretch marks, dark lines on the abdomen, and skin darkening being the most common.
research Read-Through for Nonsense Mutations in Type XVII Collagen‒Deficient Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa
A new therapy for a skin blistering condition has not been developed yet.
research Loose anagen hair syndrome in two patients with epidermolysis bullosa simplex, Dowling-Meara type
Two patients with the same genetic mutation had both blistering skin and easily pulled out hair.
research Case report: Pseudoporphyria in a 56-year-old man as a result of finasteride intake
Finasteride may cause pseudoporphyria, a blistering skin condition.
research Pathological Mechanisms Involved in Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex: Current Knowledge and Therapeutic Perspectives
Promising treatments for EBS include anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, creams, mTOR inhibitors, and gene editing, but more trials are needed.

A 15-year-old girl has a skin condition causing blisters on her feet, likely inherited from her family.
research The Case Files
The man's skin condition improved with sun protection and topical steroids, but UV exposure still caused flare-ups.
research Identification of somatic and germline mosaicism for a keratin 5 mutation in epidermolysis bullosa simplex in a family of which the proband was previously regarded as a sporadic case
The keratin 5 mutation in a family with epidermolysis bullosa simplex was due to mosaicism, not a new mutation.
research 259 Scalp hair follicle dermal sheath fibroblasts express genes associated with promotion of skin integrity/wound healing and prevention of autoimmune responses in Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Scalp hair follicle cells help protect and heal skin in certain skin conditions.
