In the dermis of inter-appendage and glabrous skin, interstitial collagen types I, III, and V are abundant, while fibronectin is scarce. Conversely, in the morphogenetically active foci of cutaneous appendages, interstitial collagen is scarce or absent, whereas fibronectin is abundant. Type IV collagen and laminin are localized at the dermal-epidermal junction and distributed evenly.

High-frequency ultrasound (HFUS) has been reported to be useful for the diagnosis of cutaneous diseases; however, its two-dimensional nature limits the value both in quantitative and qualitative evaluation. Three-dimensional (3D) visualization might help overcome the weakness of the currently existing HFUS. 3D-HFUS was newly developed and applied to various skin tumors and inflammatory hair diseases to assess its validity and advantages for dermatological use.

Background: Childhood is a crucial period that shapes a person's growth and development. For orphans, a lack of familial support affects their upbringing, making orphanages crucial for care. Children living in orphanage centers are vulnerable to several conditions, including dermatological disorders, due to factors such as malnutrition, overcrowding, and poor hygiene.

Deer antlers are the only mammalian appendages that can fully regenerate from periosteum of pedicles (PP). This regeneration process starts from regenerative healing of wounds. Removal of PP abolishes antler regeneration, however, the regenerative cutaneous wound healing proceeds, indicating that some factors in the circulation contribute to this healing.

Background: The presence of a human tail is a rare condition resulting from an embryonic remnant that fits the definition of a caudal appendage. It may be a vestigial (true) or a pseudotail. Both may be considered markers of underlying intraspinal abnormalities.

Introduction: The pathophysiology of burn wound conversion is not fully understood. Animal models are needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and develop treatments. Here, we established a new reproducible mouse model that simulates this process, thereby facilitating studies of burn wound conversion.
