This review analyzed literature on primary cutaneous lymphomas involving the scalp, finding that scalp involvement in these cases often leads to non-scarring focal alopecia and may indicate more aggressive disease.

This study found that gels containing glycyrrhizic acid and aqueous Glycyrrhiza glabra extract significantly reduced underarm hair growth in terms of area, thickness, length, and number compared to their gel bases.

This study found that procyanidin oligomers, particularly dimers and trimers, significantly promoted hair growth in mice and hair epithelial cell cultures, suggesting potential use as hair growth agents.

This study found that dihydrotestosterone (DHT) may shorten the hair growth cycle through mechanisms like cell-cycle arrest and β-catenin downregulation in rat hair follicle cells.

In this article, the authors reported that calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate aerosol foam significantly improved scalp psoriasis symptoms in three patients by reducing itching and improving flaky patches within a four-week treatment period, confirming its efficacy and enhanced skin penetration compared to older formulations.

This study found that using calcipotriene and betamethasone dipropionate cream in a real-world setting significantly improved clinical outcomes and patient quality of life for adults with mild-to-moderate scalp psoriasis, especially among those with higher adherence, demonstrating high treatment satisfaction.

This study reported that heat treatment significantly increased the incidence of alopecia areata in C3H/HeJ mice, suggesting a role for induced HSPA1A/B expression in disease development.

This study found that dihydrotestosterone treatment in female rats altered anterior pituitary gland gene expression, with significant repression of prolactin and inhibition of GnRH receptor gene expression, suggesting specific hormone production changes.

In this study, PDO, PLLA, and PCL thread implants in ageing rat skin did not alter MMP1 gene expression but maintained collagen levels similar to young skin without UV-B exposure, suggesting possible benefits for skin collagen but not gene expression modification.

This study found that women with PCOS have higher follicular fluid levels of testosterone and IL-6, despite similar NEFA levels to non-PCOS women, suggesting increased lipotoxicity impact on androgenesis in PCOS.

This study suggests that geranyl acetate may offer protective, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective effects against PPD-induced toxicity in keratinocyte cells, indicating its potential as a plant-derived treatment.

This review compiled evidence suggesting that flavonoids may promote skin wound healing due to their anti-inflammatory, angiogenesis, re-epithelialization, and antioxidant properties, while also discussing current limitations and future prospects for these compounds as wound-healing agents.

This study found that transgenic mice expressing a mutant CYLD protein lacking deubiquitinase function showed signs of premature aging and spontaneous tumor development, likely due to over-activation of specific molecular pathways and chronic inflammation.

This case report describes a rare instance of alopecia universalis occurring eight weeks after discontinuing pegylated interferon α and ribavirin therapy, highlighting the need for awareness among healthcare providers.

This study found that chitosan nanoparticle-encapsulated Cordyceps militaris significantly reduced inflammation and oxidative stress in particulate matter-exposed mice, suggesting potential use for managing lung inflammation.

In this study, baricitinib treatment improved the differentiation of skin-derived precursors into adipocytes for diseases like Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, suggesting potential benefits when combined with lonafarnib.

This study found that subthermal CRET treatment increased keratinocyte proliferation and modulated cytokine production, affecting the inflammatory response in human keratinocytes through EGFR and ERK1/2/NF-κB pathways.

This study found that cytoplasmic nucleic acids significantly increase the expression of certain chemokines in human keratinocytes through NF-κB activation, though the specific receptors involved remain unidentified.

This study observed that two patients treated with interferon α-2b and ribavirin for chronic hepatitis C experienced complete and reversible straightening of their natural curly hair, which recurred with treatment resumption.

This study found that BDNF gene polymorphism was significantly associated with depression in patients with autoimmune thyroiditis and hypothyroidism in the Western Ukrainian population, unlike VDR and NMDA polymorphisms.

This correspondence reported significant variability between quantitative PCR and bDNA assays for measuring Hepatitis C virus RNA in high-titer specimens, challenging the reliability of the Chiron assay.

This review explores emerging therapies for hair regrowth, highlighting two strategies: hair follicle neogenesis and Wnt/B-catenin pathway modulation, which show promise for treating alopecia by potentially offering more effective options than existing treatments.

This study found that udenafil-treated adipose-derived stem cells accelerated hair growth in mice by enhancing stem cell activity and growth factor secretion through the ERK and NFκB pathways.

In this case–control study, the researchers in Ukraine found no significant link between VDR rs2228570 polymorphism and decreased serum BDNF levels, though they observed a moderate correlation between serum BDNF and 25-OH Vitamin D levels in patients with thyroid disorders.

In this study, researchers explored how hypoxic preconditioning affects the survival and oxidative stress resilience of nestin-expressing hair follicle stem cells and SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, focusing on changes in gene expression for HIF1α, BDNF, and VEGF.

This meta-analysis found a significantly higher prevalence of depressive symptoms in women with PCOS compared to a control group, with 42.11% versus 13.62% according to the BDI assessment, highlighting the need for psychiatric evaluation and support for women with this syndrome.

This study found that combining adult germinative epidermal cells with non-inductive dermal cells can stimulate hair follicle neogenesis, effectively altering the cells' status to enhance induction.

This article reviews potential factors influencing Behçet's disease, like increased neutrophil functions, immunological changes, stress, and hormonal alterations, but it presents no new clinical results.

This study found that the ID2 gene was highly expressed in bulge-derived keratinocytes when exposed to contact sensitizers and may serve as a marker to distinguish sensitizers from irritants during in vitro testing.

The hydrogel dressing effectively treats infected wounds by combining infection control and tissue regeneration.
