The fate of interfollicular epidermis keratinocytes which filled the hair follicles bursas of collagen dermis framework was investigated in the autotransplantation experiment. Collagen dermis framework was prepared from the skin flap. Interfollicular epidermis was detached with the help of suction method and transferred to the collagen dermis framework surface which was placed previously on the full thickness skin defect surface. It was established that in this environment keratinocytes not only developed, but some of them migrated into the hair follicle bursas cavities. It resulted in the follicular-like structures formation, cell elements of which differentiated in the manner characteristic of interfollicular epidermis. However, in spite of the fact that the epidermal cells partially retained their proliferating ability, ingrowing would completely disappear by the 15th to 20th day after the transplantation.

Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: An Update.

Am J Clin Dermatol

December 2024

Salford Royal Hospital, Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust, Manchester Academic Health Science Centre, Manchester, M6 8HD, UK.

In this review, we discuss recent developments in our understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia, a disease that has become increasingly common and widespread since its first description in 1994. An inherited predisposition to frontal fibrosing alopecia, previously suspected from the occurrence of familial cases, has been confirmed through genetic studies. Nevertheless, the epidemiology continues to implicate environmental factors in the aetiology.

EGFR-TKIs induce acneiform rash and xerosis via Caspase-3/GSDME-mediated pyroptosis of keratinocytes and sebocytes.

Toxicology

November 2024

Department of Dermatology, Dermatology Hospital, Southern Medical University, No.2, Lujing Road, Yuexiu District, Guangzhou, Guangdong 510091, China. Electronic address:

Skin toxicities are the most common adverse effects of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). While EGFR-TKIs induce pyroptosis in lung cancer cells through Gasdermin E (GSDME) activation, it is unknown whether they can similarly affect skin cells. In this study, we used immunohistochemistry to demonstrate that in acneiform rash, the N-terminus of GSDME (GSDME-N) is predominantly expressed in the basal layer of the follicular epithelium and sebocytes, while it is absent in the interfollicular epidermis.

Hair regrowth in alopecia areata and re-pigmentation in vitiligo in response to treatment: Commonalities and differences.

J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol

September 2024

Inflammation & Immunology Research Unit, Pfizer, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.

Both alopecia areata (AA) and vitiligo share common pathogenesis involving, interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and interleukin-15 (IL-15) signalling pathways that activate cytotoxic CD8+ T lymphocytes. These shared mechanisms may explain why both diseases respond to currently available treatments (e.g.

Article Synopsis
  • - Skin stem cells (SCs) are essential for maintaining and regenerating skin tissue, with different types located in various skin regions like the epidermis and sweat glands.
  • - Their development begins during embryogenesis from multipotent SCs, and they remain ready to respond to skin repair needs throughout adulthood, influenced by molecular cues for quiescence, self-renewal, and differentiation.
  • - Disruptions in the balance of these cues can lead to issues like skin cancer and poor wound healing, prompting research into the molecular mechanisms behind SC behavior for potential regenerative medicine applications.
