research British Society for Dermatopathology: Summaries of Papers
Some skin conditions are associated with other serious diseases, and office microscopy may miss many fungal infections.
research Biology and Genetics of Hair
The document concludes that understanding the genes and pathways involved in hair growth is crucial for developing treatments for hair diseases.
research Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a common disorder causing symptoms like acne and infertility, and it's managed based on symptoms, not just test results. Treatment can improve fertility and reduce miscarriage risk.
research Clinical case of alopecia totalis in pediatric practice
An 11-year-old child with total hair loss may have a genetic autoimmune disease, and the outlook for hair regrowth is not good.
research Identification of the cell lineage at the origin of basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research Melanocytes: The new Black
Melanocytes are crucial for skin pigmentation and can affect conditions like melanoma, vitiligo, and albinism, as well as hair color and hearing.
research Ichthyosis follicularis, alopecia, and photophobia (IFAP) syndrome
IFAP syndrome is a rare genetic disorder causing skin, hair, and eye issues, with limited treatment options.
research Keratin 17 in disease pathogenesis: from cancer to dermatoses
Keratin 17 is linked to various diseases, including cancer and skin conditions, and may be a target for diagnosis and treatment.
research Cylindroma as Tumor of Hair Follicle Origin
Cylindromas likely originate from hair follicle stem cells, not sweat glands.
research Vitamin D‐dependent rickets type I and type II
VDDR I and II are genetic disorders affecting vitamin D use, causing rickets, with VDDR I treatable by vitamin D supplements and VDDR II needing high doses and calcium.
research <p>Asian Hair: A Review of Structures, Properties, and Distinctive Disorders</p>
Asian hair is generally straight and thick, with unique disorders and properties, and more research is needed to understand it fully.
research Novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying generalized glucocorticoid resistance and hypersensitivity syndromes
Genetic defects in the glucocorticoid receptor gene can cause conditions with abnormal sensitivity to stress hormones, and other factors may also affect this sensitivity.
research Genomic Organization and Amplification of the Human Keratin 15 and Keratin 19 Genes
The study mapped keratin 15 and 19 genes, aiding future genetic disorder research.
research The hair shaft: normality, abnormality, and genetics
Hair microscopy is useful for diagnosing hair disorders, but clear definitions are needed for accurate genetic analysis.
research Deficiency of the human cysteine protease inhibitor cystatin M/E causes hypotrichosis and dry skin
Lack of cystatin M/E causes thin hair and dry skin.
research A newborn presenting with congenital blistering
The newborn's skin blistering is due to a genetic condition called epidermolytic hyperkeratosis.
research Werner′s syndrome
Werner's syndrome causes early aging and increases cancer risk, requiring early diagnosis and symptom management.
research A Case of Steatocystoma Multiplex in a Psoriatic Patient during Treatment with Anti-IL-12/23
Ustekinumab treatment may reveal a genetic tendency for steatocystoma multiplex in psoriasis patients.
research Deimination in epidermal barrier and hair formation
Enzymes that change arginine to citrulline are important for skin barrier and hair formation, and their malfunction can lead to skin conditions and hair disorders.
research Acrodermatitis enteropathica – a diagnostic challenge: case report of late-onset, genetically proven disease with normal zinc serum levels
Accurate diagnosis and zinc supplements can improve life quality in acrodermatitis enteropathica, even with normal zinc levels.
research Writer’s Cramp Presentation of Woodhouse–Sakati Syndrome – “Out of the Woods”
