This study reported that exposure to 1,763 MHz radiofrequency radiation stimulated hair growth in vitro by inducing insulin-like growth factor-1 expression in cultured human dermal papilla cells.

Minoxidil affects collagen-related genes, potentially helping treat fibrosis.

This study found that despite the persistence of aberrant double-negative T-cells, functional immune-competence was maintained after thymic transplantation in a patient with a rare FOXN1 mutation.

In this study using rats, finasteride-induced DHT deficiency led to morphological changes in seminiferous tubules, linked with altered junctional protein expression, potentially impairing fertility.

This study found that in mice lacking EGFR, elevated Wnt signaling disrupts hair follicle development by affecting cell proliferation and differentiation, revealing a critical role for EGFR in regulating these processes.

Tigason improved hair growth in a boy with monilethrix without side effects.

This study, using multimodal profiling in mice, found that various tissues contain unique γδ T cell subsets adapted to their environment, revealing their functional diversity, lineage relationships, and similarities to CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells.

This article includes no new results; it discusses ongoing treatment approaches for frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planopilaris.

This study found that longitudinal partial follicular unit transplantation may be an effective method for regenerating hair follicles and achieving satisfactory cosmetic outcomes in patients with facial and scalp burns, while preserving the donor area.

This review highlights recent findings on blood-derived autologous therapies for skin repair and wound healing but presents no new clinical results, emphasizing future challenges and prospects in regenerative dermatology.

This study found that valproic acid may interfere with the leucine metabolic pathway by inhibiting 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase and biotinidase, which could contribute to side effects like skin rash and hair loss in patients.

This review discusses the topical use of systemic drugs for cutaneous disorders and reports a lack of strong evidence from randomized controlled trials, highlighting the need for larger comparative effectiveness studies.

This review discusses the management of hirsutism in women, highlighting promising treatments like metformin for polycystic ovarian syndrome, and emphasizes the importance of understanding hair growth cycles and realistic treatment expectations; it reports no new clinical results.

This report describes two siblings with a new familial association of loose anagen syndrome and ocular coloboma, despite unaffected parents and no family history.

In this study, 17β-estradiol increased VEGF production in differentiated THP-1 cells, while dihydrotestosterone counteracted this effect by modulating adenylate cyclase activity.

This study reports that over one-quarter of dermatology outpatients show psychiatric morbidity, highlighting the importance of considering psychological factors in managing skin diseases.

This study reviews the mechanisms by which SARS-CoV-2 may impact male fertility, noting potential disruptions in spermatogenesis and hormone secretion, and underscores the need for follow-up in recovered men.

This study found that minicircle-based gene therapy significantly lowered total homocysteine levels and improved liver CBS activity in a mouse model of CBS deficiency.

This study presents the first reported case of kerion-type scalp mycosis caused by Aspergillus protuberus, emphasizing the importance of mycological examination when diagnosing unusual scalp infections, especially in children.

This case report describes a patient with non-small cell lung cancer who experienced trichomegaly (excessive eyelash growth) as a side effect of erlotinib treatment without developing typical skin rash.

This review discusses how faecal pollution contributes to antimicrobial resistance in surface water and highlights the need for standardized methods and better wastewater management but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that plasma rich in growth factors was a safe and more effective treatment for androgenetic alopecia than topical minoxidil, showing greater improvements in hair growth phases.

This commentary critiques the definition of iron deficiency in hair loss studies, suggesting higher serum ferritin levels as a more accurate threshold for diagnosing deficiency in women.

In this study, researchers observed that Malassezia species show different lipid metabolism and growth patterns depending on pH, with slightly acidic conditions promoting beneficial lipid bio-conversion for skin health, while neutral pH resulted in lower growth and lipid content, potentially negatively impacting the skin.

This study found that women with acne and oligomenorrhea have higher levels of biologically active testosterone compared to those with acne and normal menstrual cycles.

In this study, researchers identified 32 differentially expressed genes involved in androgenetic alopecia, with down-regulated genes associated with Wnt and TGF-beta signaling and up-regulated genes linked to oxidative stress pathways.

This article discusses the role of HR gene mutations in differentiating atrichia with papular lesions from alopecia universalis, but presents no new experimental results.

This study found that minoxidil was released 50% less from creams than from lotions, with a similar release profile across different lotion formulations, suggesting a specific vehicle composition for topical use.

In this case report, pulsed radiofrequency neuromodulation provided over 80% pain relief for five months in a patient with chronic lesser occipital nerve pain after other treatments failed.
