research Evaluation of Serum Vitamin-D Levels in Patients with Alopecia Areata
Vitamin D levels are not linked to Alopecia Areata.
research Evaluation of Serum Vitamin D Levels in Patients with Vitiligo
People with vitiligo tend to have lower vitamin D levels.
research Atypical Juvenile Pityriasis Rubra Pilaris: A Case Report of Early Onset With Late Diagnosis
A rare skin condition in a 17-year-old was diagnosed late, stressing the need for careful evaluation and genetic testing.
research Common Dermatologic Disorders in Down Syndrome: Systematic Review (Preprint)
People with Down syndrome have a higher risk of skin disorders and need better screening and treatment.
research Clinical and molecular genetic studies in hereditary hair loss
Researchers found a genetic link for hereditary hair loss but need more analysis to identify the exact gene.
research P62: An increase in Breslow thickness: coronavirus or coincidence?
The pandemic likely caused delays in skin cancer assessments, leading to fewer early diagnoses and thicker melanomas.
research LB1077 Cutaneous responses to systemic iron: A potential role for epidermal turnover in mammalian iron excretion
Skin may help in getting rid of excess iron through the process of skin cell renewal.
research LB1081 Three-dimensional imaging of tight junction-network across multiple layers of human epidermis by array tomography using backscattered electron-mode scanning electron microscopy
The study found that tight junctions reach the top layer of the skin's stratum granulosum, not just the second top layer as previously thought.
research LB1076 Using the frog embryonic epidermis as a model to study desmosome function during development
Frog skin cells need the protein desmoplakin for proper development and cell layer formation.
research Common genetic hair shaft abnormalities may be visualized by light and electron microscope
Genetic hair shaft abnormalities can be seen with microscopes and often affect scalp hair.
research Multi-dermatomal unilateral nevus comedonicus along the lines of Blaschko: a rare presentation
A rare skin disorder, nevus comedonicus, can appear on one side of the body following Blaschko's lines.
research Oral Presentations
The document concludes that an experimental drug may help wound healing in Epidermolysis Bullosa, links Hydroa vacciniforme to EBV, discusses diagnosing hair loss disorders, finds many children with eczema have allergies, reviews the safety of a skin medication in children, notes side effects of a Duchenne's treatment, and identifies a marker for pediatric mastocytosis.
research 475 Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) L55M and Q192R polymorphisms, lipid profiles and psoriasis
The PON1 192R gene variant is linked to a higher risk of psoriasis and heart disease in Western Mexico.
research 477 Dietary fat- and obesity-sensitive dermal adipocyte PKCβ induction and inflammation cross-talk
Eating a lot of fat increases PKCβ and inflammation in skin fat cells, which affects skin and hair health.
research 476 Development of an intrinsic skin sensor for blood glucose level with CRISPR-mediated genome editing in epidermal stem cells
Researchers created a skin graft that senses blood glucose and could treat diabetes using CRISPR-edited stem cells.
research 474 Stabilizing mutations of KLHL24 ubiquitin ligase cause loss of keratin 14 and human skin fragility
Certain mutations in the KLHL24 gene cause a skin disorder by breaking down an important skin protein.
research Cicatricial alopecia: What’s new in etiology?
Cicatricial alopecia, a permanent hair loss condition, is mainly caused by damage to specific hair follicle stem cells and abnormal immune responses, with gene regulator PPAR-y and lipid metabolism disorders playing significant roles.
research The Skin at Different Ages
Skin changes throughout life, from development before birth to aging effects like wrinkles, influenced by both genetics and environment.
research Hair shedding in women
About 30% of women feel they lose too much hair, often starting before age 40, and most can't find a reason for it.
research Early skin biopsy is helpful for the diagnosis and management of neonatal and infantile erythrodermas
Early skin biopsy helps diagnose and manage severe skin conditions in babies.
research 9. Immunology and Genetics
The document concludes that Borrelia afzelii causes a skin condition in France, a gene is linked to hair loss in Caucasian women, and various genetic mutations affect skin diseases.
research A comparison of vertical versus transverse sections for the histopathologic diagnosis of alopecias
Transverse sections are better for non-scarring hair loss, vertical sections are better for lichen planopilaris, and either method works for other scarring hair loss types.
research Keratosis Follicularis
Keratosis Pilaris Atrophicans causes skin scarring and might be treated with a new synthetic retinoid.
