This study found that asynchronous differentiation in human anagen hair follicles involves specific localization of c-Myc and interrelated genes Max and Bin1 along the inner root sheath.

This study observed that mice with a Cx43 mutation exhibited slower and asynchronous hair regrowth with severe cuticle weathering, mimicking aspects of hair phenotype in some ODDD patients.

This study found that hair follicle matrix progenitors differentiate into various layers asynchronously, with early progenitors forming the companion layer and later progenitors generating the inner root sheath and hair shaft.

This study describes a 4-year-old boy who exhibits a rare, synchronized pattern of hair growth and shedding, unlike the typical asynchronous pattern seen in humans.

In this case report, a 66-year-old postmenopausal woman with hyperandrogenism and alopecia underwent bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, which revealed rare synchronous ovarian tumors causing virilization, highlighting the importance of surgical exploration despite normal imaging.

This study found that in mink, the pituitary gland is essential for normal seasonal pelage cycles, and manipulating hormone levels can affect hair growth and type.

This review explains various types of hair loss and unwanted hair growth in women, emphasizing the complexity of treatment due to their diverse causes, but it reports no new clinical results.

This research highlights the development of cardiac pacing technologies, focusing on resynchronization and conduction system pacing, with clinicians particularly hopeful about direct left bundle branch pacing.

In this study, mouse models with EGFR deficiency showed that disrupted hair follicle cycling leads to increased mast cell numbers and inflammation, suggesting EGFR's role in managing hair cycle transitions and preventing folliculitis.

In this study, the glyceride content in whole mouse skin was nearly twice as high during anagen compared to telogen, suggesting potential energy utilization for hair proliferation or unrelated accumulation.

In this study, telogen effluvium is characterized as a common condition in women involving sudden hair shedding due to hair follicles prematurely entering the telogen phase, with potential triggers including fever, childbirth, and stress.

This article discusses telogen effluvium in women, its causes, and typical diagnostic methods, but reports no new research findings on clinical outcomes or treatments.

Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.

This study found that in mice, EGFR activation suppresses mitotic regulators like Rcc2 and Stathmin 1, facilitating the transition to catagen in hair follicles.

This report describes the successful treatment of multiple extrapulmonary disorders from Rhodococcus equi pneumonia in a foal, emphasizing the importance of thorough diagnosis and targeted treatment.

This study reported that 19.8% of patients experienced telogen hair loss after COVID-19, with most cases occurring 3 to 6 months post-recovery, and noted a rapid progression in patients with androgenetic alopecia, as well as cases of alopecia areata and cicatricial alopecia linked to COVID-19.

This book compiles papers from a 1988 symposium on human hair follicle research, highlighting collaboration between dermatology and industry, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, Msx2-deficient mice showed progressive hair loss due to shortened anagen phase and prolonged catagen and telogen phases, resulting in cyclic alopecia with structurally abnormal hair shafts.

Macrophages help break down collagen around hair follicles during hair growth.

This review examines the design strategies for creating conductive hydrogels with adjustable properties for various biomedical applications, highlighting their potential for supporting cell growth, wound healing, drug delivery, tissue regeneration, and biosensing.

This case report presents a rare instance of recurrent ACTH-independent Cushing’s syndrome due to PBMAH, coinciding with the development of a pheochromocytoma, highlighting the need for thorough reevaluation in similar recurring cases.

This study identified that in mice, sweat gland development is directed by mesenchymal signals that suppress SHH-production, while in humans, this occurs through a BMP spike in embryonic development.

Teledermatology reduces unnecessary in-person visits and improves care.

This study describes teledermatology as a cost-effective and convenient alternative to in-person dermatology consultations during the COVID-19 pandemic, with diagnostic accuracy ranging from 54% to 88%.

In this study, both physician and patient reports revealed that more severe alopecia areata was associated with higher emotional symptoms and greater activity limitations among patients.

This study found that teledermatology significantly reduced wait times and increased appointment availability for uninsured Latino immigrants, effectively triaging 70% of cases without in-person visits.

Teledermatology can effectively treat certain skin conditions with topical treatments, reducing the need for in-person visits.

This study found that telemedicine effectively managed common dermatological conditions like tinea, acne, hair disorders, and dermatitis during the COVID-19 pandemic, with a significant portion of patients not needing face-to-face consultations.

This article discusses the rise of direct-to-consumer teledermatology platforms, warning that they might cause overdiagnosis, overtreatment, and fragmented healthcare, and emphasizes the need for patient counseling about these risks and benefits.

Direct-to-consumer teledermatology is not effectively reaching underserved populations due to language, technology, and insurance barriers.
