research Gender differences in skin: A review of the literature
Male and female skin differ due to hormones, affecting conditions like hair loss, acne, and skin cancer, and suggesting a need for gender-specific treatments.
research Use of Silver in the Prevention and Treatment of Infections: Silver Review
Silver can help prevent and treat infections but its effectiveness varies and should be weighed against costs and side effects.
research Diabetes and cardiovascular events in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a 20-year retrospective cohort study
Women with PCOS have a higher risk of diabetes and heart problems, especially when they get older.
research The Pathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat primary cicatricial alopecias, and suggests a possible reclassification based on molecular pathways.
research The Immune Functions of Keratinocytes in Skin Wound Healing
Keratinocytes help heal skin wounds by interacting with immune cells and producing substances that kill pathogens.
research Ichthyosis
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of ichthyosis is crucial for treatment and genetic advice, and ongoing research is needed for better therapies.
research Evidence-based (S3) guideline for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia in women and in men – short version

research Historical and Current Adenosine Receptor Agonists in Preclinical and Clinical Development
The document concludes that adenosine receptor agonists have potential for treating various conditions, but only a few are approved due to challenges like side effects and the need for selective activation.
research A Perspective on RNAi-Based Biopesticides
RNAi-based biopesticides could be safe and effective for pest control with careful development and risk assessment.
research Cutting Edge: Memory Regulatory T Cells Require IL-7 and Not IL-2 for Their Maintenance in Peripheral Tissues
Memory regulatory T cells need IL-7, not IL-2, to stay in peripheral tissues.
research Protoporphyrin IX: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Protoporphyrin IX is useful in cancer treatment but can cause health problems if not properly regulated.

research Hypersensitivity reactions to anticoagulant drugs: diagnosis and management options
Allergic reactions to blood thinners are rare but can be serious, requiring careful testing and alternative treatments.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
