This article reviews common pitfalls in biopsy site selection and technique that can lead to misdiagnosis of various skin conditions, highlighting the importance of proper biopsy practices for improving diagnostic accuracy.

This study established a new in vitro culture system that supports the growth and dynamic self-organization of hair follicle stem cells and their progeny, promoting a stable population equilibrium.

Research on epidermal stem cells has advanced significantly, showing promise for improved clinical therapies.

In this study, miR-218-5p was found to enhance hair shaft growth and positively regulate the Wnt signaling pathway by targeting SFRP2 during skin and hair follicle development.

This study found that after injury, the bone marrow microenvironment's increased Wnt10b expression supports hematopoietic stem cell regeneration by enhancing Wnt signaling, revealing a vital interaction during recovery.

This study demonstrates that FMOD deficiency in mice alters TGF-β ligand and receptor expression during wound healing stages, leading to delayed wound closure and increased scar size.

This review discusses treatment approaches for androgenetic alopecia, highlighting that drug therapies like minoxidil and finasteride are promising for men, while antiandrogens and topical minoxidil show good results in women; it reports no new results.

This study found that angiogenin is expressed in human dermal papilla cells, where it might stimulate hair growth by promoting cell proliferation and local skin angiogenesis.

This study found that expanding hair follicle keratinocytes with a fibroblast feeder followed by short-term coculture with dermal papilla cells could restore their ability to form new hair follicles.

In a study using female Wistar rats, the researchers found that a liquid allantoin-enriched pectin hydrogel significantly improved wound healing, achieving a 71.43% reduction in healing time and complete wound closure in 15 days.

This study found that several local vegetables from Northern Thailand demonstrated significant antioxidant and 5α-reductase inhibitory activities, suggesting their potential for development into health-promoting products.

This study identified a novel splice site mutation in the LIPH gene associated with autosomal recessive woolly hair, contributing to understanding the genetic basis of this condition.

This review discusses the expression of PSA in hormonally-regulated tissues and female malignancies, emphasizing its potential as a diagnostic biomarker and role in antidoping initiatives.

TR3 is mainly found in hair follicle stem cells and may be involved in hair loss.

This study developed and validated a comprehensive method using mass spectrometry to profile sex (pro)hormones in plasma, with results showing reliable calibration and detection of 31 analytes in samples from pre- and postmenopausal women and men, while addressing potential over- or underestimations in analyte concentrations.

This study found that the Yangyin Qingre Huoxue Prescription effectively reduced the progression of atherosclerosis in mice, with lipid-regulating and anti-inflammatory functions and lower hepatotoxicity than simvastatin.

This study successfully established and validated a method using LC-MS/MS to measure multiple androgens in plasma, finding that individuals with acne had higher levels of certain androgens compared to those with obesity.

This study developed and validated a gradient reversed-phase liquid chromatographic method to effectively measure Finasteride and its related impurities in pharmaceutical bulk drugs, demonstrating high linearity and precision.

In this study, researchers reported that a newly developed interferon-γ release assay for cell-mediated immunity to SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid peptides demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity, making it a robust tool for routine diagnostic tests and potentially useful in predicting clinical outcomes after pathogen re-exposure.

In this study, researchers developed and validated a method to quantify pyrrolizidine alkaloids in honey and flour, increasing alkaloid recovery rates through successive extractions, achieving up to 86% recovery for honey and 76% for flour.

This study investigated how 2D and 3D cell culturing methods influence hair follicle morphogenesis, finding that 3D cultures responded more expectedly to minoxidil while 2D cultures reacted better to DHT treatment, challenging the assumption that 3D cultures are always superior.

This study developed methods for detecting carboxy-finasteride in urine for doping control, demonstrating detection up to 49 hours post-administration with high precision and accuracy.

This case report describes how personalized treatment based on Encyclopedic Tumor Analysis successfully led to durable regression in a woman with advanced pilomatrical carcinoma, unresponsive to standard care.

This study found that while serum prolactin levels were higher in women with hirsutism, the relationship between prolactin levels and hirsutism severity was not statistically significant.

This study found that two eco-friendly analytical methods for quantifying Finasteride and Tadalafil in a new dosage form were effective, green, and suitable for quality control.

This review discusses how neuroendocrine pathways influence keratin regulation in human skin and hair follicles and suggests these pathways as potential targets for new treatments of skin disorders, but reports no clinical results.

This study using high-performance liquid chromatography reported that mice with more diverse gut microbiota had higher levels of specific compounds in hair compared to those with less diversity, with stress affecting certain plasma levels.

This study found that certain steroidal compounds, especially 10a–10c, demonstrated strong antiandrogenic activity by binding to the androgen receptor and reducing prostate weight in a hamster model.

This study presented a new method for accurately measuring Fe³⁺ in small serum samples, achieving high recovery rates and agreement with established testing methods, while offering advantages such as cost-effectiveness, simplicity, and enhanced sensitivity.

Any drug can cause skin reactions, but antibiotics, NSAIDs, and psychotropic drugs are more common, with some reactions being life-threatening.
