This study found that dihydrotestosterone induces hair loss in male C57BL/6 mice, and this effect can be partially reversed by the androgen receptor antagonist bicalutamide.

This study identifies comedonal or cystic fibrofolliculomas as novel diagnostic clues for earlier recognition of Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome, potentially facilitating timely surveillance of associated systemic complications.

This report highlights a case where dermoscopic observation of corkscrew hairs in a young woman led to the diagnosis of trichotillomania, emphasizing its role in distinguishing this psychiatric disorder from other forms of non-scarring alopecia and highlighting the importance of timely intervention.

This study reported that black hairy tongue can occur after allogeneic stem cell transplantation and may indicate cutaneous graft-versus-host disease, highlighting the need for histopathologic evaluation.

This study found that thymosin beta-4 overexpression in mice increased hair growth speed and density, likely by regulating P38/ERK/AKT signaling through VEGF expression.

The researchers reported that BCE-like changes overlying dermatofibroma show a differentiation pattern most similar to normal basal cells based on specific keratin markers.

In this study, tibial cortex transverse transport accelerated wound healing in diabetic rats, potentially through enhanced mobilization of non-classical monocytes and increased M2 macrophage polarization.

Home photobiomodulation therapy can improve life quality and mobility for disabled individuals.

Temporal triangular alopecia is a non-scarring hair loss seen in some Asian children.

This case study describes a 45-year-old male with black hairy tongue who experienced complete resolution of tongue discoloration and improved halitosis after receiving treatment focused on enhanced oral hygiene, tongue brushing, and smoking cessation.

This study discusses calcinosis cutis and alopecia totalis, highlighting the need for thyroid disease screening in children with alopecia areata, especially those with a history of Down syndrome or signs of potential thyroid dysfunction.

This study found that TGFbeta is a key pathway causing age-related loss of dermal fat's antimicrobial function, suggesting that targeting TGFBR might help restore skin defense against infections in older age.

In this study, the researchers found that thymosin beta-4 promotes odontoblastic differentiation in human dental pulp cells, suggesting it as a potential mechanism for regenerative endodontics.

This case report highlights the rare occurrence of life-threatening aplastic anemia in a 65-year-old woman treated with temozolomide for glioblastoma multiforme, emphasizing the need for more frequent blood monitoring to detect severe bone marrow suppression early.

This research observed that mutations in the PTCH gene are common in both sporadic and hereditary basal cell cancers, suggesting a critical role of the PTCH signaling pathway in skin tumor development.

This review discusses the role of TGF-β signaling in stem cell recruitment and tissue regeneration, indicating that abnormalities in TGF-β activation contribute to various major diseases and suggesting avenues for therapeutic intervention.

This study found that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) inhibited hair shaft elongation and induced premature catagen development in cultured human hair follicles, partially through transforming growth factor β2.

This source reports that thymosin beta 4 accelerated dermal wound repair in phase 2 clinical trials for pressure ulcers, stasis ulcers, and epidermolysis bullosa wounds and was well tolerated.

This report highlights two cases where trichoblastoma in the breast was initially misdiagnosed as malignancy due to diagnostic challenges in needle core biopsies, emphasizing the importance of expert dermatopathologic review.

This study found that MF patients with darker skin types show slower initial improvement with NB-UVB phototherapy, highlighting disparities in treatment efficacy that warrant further investigation.

This article reports a case of late onset linear and unilateral basaloid follicular hamartoma in an elderly male, highlighting the clinical presentation, histopathological findings, and planned treatment approach.

This study found that topical bortezomib increased cell proliferation in hair follicles and sebaceous glands in mice and may activate hair keratin gene expression through GATA-3 transcription factors.

This study found that bupropion SR may improve symptoms in female trichotillomania patients who did not respond to SSRIs, with benefits maintained through a 16-month follow-up.

In this study, transgenic mice with active BMPR1A signaling in the epidermis had impaired hair follicle morphogenesis and showed age-related hair loss, implicating BMP signaling in hair follicle development and homeostasis.

This study on rats found that topical application of bacterial melanin significantly stimulates hair growth by prolonging the anagen phase and enhancing vasodilation in the treated skin areas compared to controls, suggesting its potential as a cost-effective hair growth treatment.

This review discusses the critical role of BMP signaling in the development and regulation of skin and hair follicles and notes that further research could aid therapeutic advances; it presents no new clinical results.

The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.

This review discusses Becker's Melanosis and Hypertrichosis in young males, summarizing cases observed in Melbourne with clinical and histological analyses, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, daily application of bimatoprost 0.03% ophthalmic solution for 9 months significantly improved eyebrow appearance in individuals with mild to moderate eyebrow hypotrichosis, without observed side effects.

This article discusses the trichoscopic diagnosis of temporal triangular alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.
