Human hair follicle cells can become fat and bone cells, useful for therapy.

This article reviews the use of deoxycholic acid as a nonsurgical treatment for unwanted fat in the cosmetic field but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that protease nexin-1 mRNA is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and is downregulated by dihydrotestosterone in balding scalp, suggesting a role in male-pattern baldness progression.

This case study describes a 40-year-old man diagnosed with pilotropic mycosis fungoides, a form of folliculotropic cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of hair follicles and eccrine glands.

This study observed that male human hair follicles metabolized dehydroepiandrosterone (DHA) more intensively than skin did and found altered DHA metabolism in follicles from balding individuals.

This study found that keratin phenotypes were consistent across different types of hair from the same individual, allowing for successful keratin typing following ABH blood group determination.

In this study, prolonged intravenous Fenoterol infusion was associated with intensive hair growth in most patients, although hormonal changes typically linked to such effects were not observed.

This abstract provides only contact and address information for a specific individual in the Department of Plastic Surgery and includes no research findings.

This case report discusses a successful treatment of Alopecia Areata with tofacitinib and includes a literature review on the condition's pathophysiology and the mechanism of JAK inhibitors, though it notes the high failure rate of available treatments and absence of FDA-approved options.

This article reports a case of pseudofolliculitis barbae potentially induced by the use of oral minoxidil.

This report presents a case of a woman with salt and pepper facial hair treated with a combination of laser hair removal and topical eflornithine.

Hair loss treatment caused more hair loss in a man.

In this study, transplanted hair follicles from different body sites showed changes in morphology and immune status, suggesting their ability to adapt and function in new recipient areas such as the scalp or eyebrows.

This case study reports a unique instance of temporary alopecia occurring after intralesional 5-fluorouracil treatment for keloids, marking the first such report associated with this localized chemotherapy approach.

This study found that adding microcapsulated pumpkin seed protein hydrolysate to aloe vera drinks improved antioxidant activity, taste, and shelf life, with chitosan-alginate microcapsules effectively inhibiting microbial growth during 30 days of refrigerated storage.

This report describes a rare case of pili multigemini, where multiple hair shafts arise from a single follicle, discovered during an examination for folliculitis on a patient's abdomen.

This article explores how YouTube videos of men using Minoxidil and Finasteride for hair growth redefine traditional roles of health experts and patients, offering a model applicable to various self-tracking communities.

This review discusses the use of follicular unit extraction for hair restoration, particularly body hair transplantation, and highlights its potential as an alternative donor source in advanced baldness cases, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that pili annulati is likely more common than traditionally thought, highlighting the importance of recognizing its characteristic clinical and trichoscopic features for accurate diagnosis.

In this study, researchers developed an enhanced rodent model of trigeminal neuralgia, demonstrating that structural and functional changes in the anterior cingulate cortex are linked to chronic pain and emotional disturbances, and chemogenetic inhibition of specific neurons could alleviate symptoms.

This review discusses the unique clinical features, challenges in diagnosis, and treatment protocols of frontal fibrosing alopecia in men, noting the overlap with other types of alopecia and the need for further studies.

According to this review, frontal fibrosing alopecia in men exhibits unique clinical features and is often misdiagnosed, underscoring the need for validated diagnostic criteria and treatment evaluation.

This case report describes a 38-year-old man who experienced alopecia areata immediately following a COVID-19 infection with high fever, suggesting a potential association between the two events.

This article discusses the design and construction of hair restoration surgery suites, emphasizing the need to meet patient, provider, and regulatory needs, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses alopecia areata as an autoimmune condition affecting hair follicles and highlights ongoing research efforts, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that in a population of hair follicles, regenerative cycling stages are regulated by both intrinsic and extrinsic signals, with WNT/BMP signaling mediating interactions among follicles for adaptability.

This study validated a method for measuring cortisol levels in hair, which may serve as a biomarker for chronic stress in both humans and various animals.

This study identified a domain on human chromosome 21q22.1 containing various high glycine-tyrosine and high sulfur keratin-associated protein genes, revealing their diverse expression in hair-forming cells.

This study found that dexamethasone significantly reduced ERα mRNA levels and increased aromatase mRNA and activity in cultured human hair follicle dermal papilla cells, suggesting a glucocorticoid-dependent mechanism for estradiol action.

This study found that steroid sulfatase in the dermal papilla of hair follicles metabolizes dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate to support the development of androgenetic alopecia, suggesting potential for steroid sulfatase inhibitors as treatments.
