This review explores the infundibulum's role and importance in skin diseases and emphasizes the need for further research into its biology and potential therapeutic targeting, but it presents no new findings.

This study found that while tape-strip RNA sequencing effectively profiles surface-connected epithelial compartments of human hair follicles, deeper follicular programs require traditional biopsies, except in cases of alopecia areata, which enhances the technique's follicular reach in capturing inflammatory signatures.

This review suggests that the mTOR signaling pathway may play a significant role in hair follicle health by influencing the effects of Vitamin D receptor deficiency, potentially contributing to hair follicle damage and related hair loss conditions.

This study found that among patients with suppurative hidradenitis, 45.8% had severe acne and 33.3% had pilonidal cysts, with a higher prevalence in men, and these conditions were associated with the severity of hidradenitis and comorbidities like depression, peripheral neuropathy, and lymphoma.

This study reviewed 55 studies to assess the bacterial microbiome in hair follicles across different inflammatory skin and hair conditions, reporting shifts in the abundance of Cutibacterium and Staphylococcus among various diseases, though the causal significance remains unclear.
