A substance called Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor can protect certain hair follicle stem cells from damage caused by androgens, suggesting a new possible treatment for hair loss.

L-cystine and vitamin B6 at high doses prevented hair loss in mice treated with a chemotherapy drug.

A new non-invasive method can analyze skin mRNA to understand skin diseases better.

Skin's epithelial stem cells are crucial for repair and maintenance, and understanding them could improve treatments for skin problems.

Fat tissue and a specific protein are crucial for healthy hair growth and maintenance.

Two mouse mutations cause similar hair loss despite different skin changes.

Blocking DGAT1 reduces oil gland size in mice and dogs, but only mice experience hair loss.

A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.

Sebaceous glands can heal and regenerate after injury using their own stem cells and help from hair follicle cells.

The conclusion is that analyzing RNA from skin oils is a promising way to understand skin diseases.

Best treatment for Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia is 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors and intralesional corticosteroids.

Murine hair has specific types of ceramides and glucosylceramides but lacks acylceramides.

Hair growth-related cells need the enzyme SCD1 to help maintain the area that supports hair growth.

Scalp psoriasis can cause different types of hair loss, with some patients developing permanent hair loss, and treatment may be stopped due to skin reactions.

Acne vulgaris is a common skin condition that can cause low self-esteem and depression, and early treatment is important to prevent scarring.

The document concludes that scalp health is influenced by complex factors affecting sebaceous glands, including hormones, aging, and various substances.

Cicatricial alopecia, a permanent hair loss condition, is mainly caused by damage to specific hair follicle stem cells and abnormal immune responses, with gene regulator PPAR-y and lipid metabolism disorders playing significant roles.

Accurate diagnosis of cicatricial alopecias requires thorough scalp examination and multiple biopsy techniques.

TGFβ signaling prevents sebaceous gland cells from producing fats.

Betamethasone dipropionate reduced skin thickness, fish oil increased it, and combined treatment had no significant effect.
