This review discusses the role of Janus-kinase inhibitors in treating severe atopic dermatitis and alopecia areata, presenting case studies that show their efficacy and calling for further research on long-term effectiveness and safety.

In laboratory experiments, this study found that the topical prodrug SCD-153, a derivative of 4-methyl itaconate, reduced inflammation-related gene expression and induced significant hair growth in mice, suggesting it as a promising treatment candidate for alopecia areata.

This study demonstrated that switching aE-catenin to aT-catenin in murine skin substantially rescued hyperproliferative and pre-cancerous conditions, but led to partial baldness, indicating potential functional discrepancies.

This study suggests that residues Val-889 and Arg-752 in the androgen receptor's steroid binding domain are crucial for NH2-/carboxyl-terminal interaction, affecting receptor stability and function.

This study observed that both ritlecitinib and brepocitinib improved scalp biomarkers in patients with alopecia areata, with associations to hair regrowth seen in this phase 2a trial.

This proof-of-concept study reported that a new, ultra-fast, one-step immunohistochemistry method improved the interpretation of Mohs surgery slides, particularly for poorly differentiated tumors.

This case report found that a 48-year-old woman with idiopathic twenty-nail dystrophy experienced significant improvement in nail appearance after six months of treatment with oral Upadacitinib.

This study observed that deleting ARNT in keratinocytes of mice reduced zigzag hair production and altered hair follicle differentiation, likely by affecting the expression of specific cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors.

This review highlights the demonstrated efficacy and growing use of upadacitinib for cutaneous disorders, emphasizing its cost-effectiveness and recent availability in India compared to other biologics and small-molecule therapies, rather than providing new primary data.

This study found that loss of Apc due to K14-cre-mediated gene recombination in mice led to aberrant growth in ectodermally derived squamous epithelia, implicating its critical role in specifying epithelial cell fates during embryonic development.

This literature review found that Janus kinase inhibitors may help achieve remission in patients with refractory primary neutrophilic cicatricial alopecias, though data is limited to small case series and reports.

This study suggests that Foxn1 acts as a brake on PKC signaling in keratinocytes, thereby modulating the stages of differentiation by controlling PKC activity.

This article reviews extensive genetic polymorphisms in the keratin-associated proteins of human hair, indicating complexity but reporting no new clinical results and calls for further research on their potential impact on hair structure.

This study identified that Eda-A1 unexpectedly induces placode inhibitors dkk4 and lrp4, indicating the importance of tightly regulated signaling for proper ectodermal organ development.

This study found that PRC1 plays crucial roles in skin epithelial stem cell regulation, with catalytic and non-catalytic functions impacting epidermal integrity, hair development, and Merkel cell dynamics in murine models.

This study observed that transgenic mice expressing keratin K10 under bovine K6beta control developed severe oral abnormalities, suggesting keratin composition changes can affect the physiology of epithelial cells, especially in the oral mucosa.

Kv1.3 blockers may help treat alopecia areata and promote hair regrowth.

In this study, researchers identified two novel peptidylarginine deiminases from treated rat keratinocytes, both showing enzyme activity with PAD‐R11 reflecting a characteristic of epidermal enzymes.

This study successfully cloned the KAP6.1 gene from Xinjiang fine-wool sheep and found its genetic sequence has high homology with sheep and goat sequences, indicating close genetic relationships.

This study found that MEGA PROTAC improved the prediction of ternary structures with higher maximum DockQ scores compared to the BOTCP method in 16 out of 22 test cases.

This review discusses the evidence supporting Janus kinase inhibitors for alopecia areata and highlights ongoing optimism as phase 3 trials begin, with no new clinical results reported.

This study suggests that typical skin lesions in Carney complex may originate from the pro-melanogenic activity of a specific dermal fibroblast population influenced by PKA signaling.

In this study, researchers at Johns Hopkins University found that Keratin 17 plays a signaling role in cell growth during a wound response by aiding mTOR pathway activation, beyond its structural functions.

This study found that Akt2 and SGK3 are crucial for postnatal hair follicle development in mice, as their combined absence led to severe hair growth defects due to disrupted β-catenin-dependent transcriptional processes.

This article reviews the differences in inflammatory processes between alopecia universalis and atopic dermatitis, focusing on type 1 and type 2 immune responses, but it reports no new results.

This study found that C8/144B antibody exclusively binds to the hair follicle bulge and not the epidermal stratum basale, with cytokeratin 19 serving as a key marker of certain basal keratinocytes that decrease with age.

In this study, researchers observed that a noncanonical mechanism involving the γ-secretase-dependent, RBPj-independent Notch intracellular domain improves survival in Msx2-Cre mice by delaying hair follicle destruction and reducing disease severity.
