research Psychocutaneous disease
Many skin patients have mental health issues, but few dermatologists are well-versed in treating these conditions.
research Topical ALA-Photodynamic Therapy for Acne Can Induce Apoptosis of Sebocytes and Down-regulate Their TLR-2 and TLR-4 Expression
ALA-photodynamic therapy helps reduce acne by causing acne cell death and lowering certain skin protein levels.
research Efficacy of combined cyclosporine A and ketoconazole treatment of anal furunculosis
Combining cyclosporine A and ketoconazole can effectively treat anal furunculosis in dogs, with some experiencing recurrences and mild side effects.
research The balance of Bmp6 and Wnt10b regulates the telogen-anagen transition of hair follicles
BMP6 and Wnt10b control whether hair follicles are resting or growing.
research Interventions for female pattern hair loss
