Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin condition. Natural products have gained traction in AD treatment due to their accessibility, low toxicity, and favorable pharmacological properties. However, their application is primarily constrained by poor solubility, instability, and limited permeability.

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare, low-grade cutaneous sarcoma typically found on the proximal extremities and the trunk, characterized by infiltrative growth and low risk of metastasis. High rates of local recurrence or relatively large tumor sizes can significantly complicate therapeutic management, particularly when 1) surgical intervention is not adequately performed and /or 2 access to newer medications is limited or their high cost imposes a financial burden on patients. We present the case of a 63-year-old male with a histologically confirmed dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, measuring 6 cm in diameter, located on the right dorsal region, accompanied by several confluent multifocal nodules situated infralaterally to the primary formation.

Objective: The presence of skin flora (SF) has been identified as a significant factor in the onset and progression of cutaneous melanoma (CM). However, the vast diversity and abundance of SF present challenges to fully understanding the causal relationship between SF and CM.
Methods: A Two Sample Mendelian Randomization (TSMR) analysis was conducted to investigating the causal relationship between SF and CM.

Fungal skin infections significantly contribute to the global human disease burden, yet our understanding of cutaneous immunity against dermatophytes remains limited. Previously, we developed a model of epicutaneous infection with Microsporum canis in C57BL/6 mice, which highlighted the critical role of IL-17RA signaling in anti-dermatophyte defenses. Here, we expanded our investigation to the human pathogen Nannizzia gypsea and demonstrated that skin γδTCRint and CD8/CD4 double-negative βTCR+ T cells are the principal producers of IL-17A during dermatophytosis.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), which is also known as von Recklinghausen's disease, is a multisystem genetic disease that is principally associated with cutaneous, neurologic and orthopedic manifestations. The present case report described an unusual case with a giant cutaneous neoplasm on the right breast skin of a 36-year-old female who was admitted to the Department of Breast Surgery at the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University (Urumqi, China). Skin mass excision was performed and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of thoracic plexiform neurofibroma as a primary presentation of NF1.
