This study described the clinical and pathologic characteristics of patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus, noting that chronic cutaneous lupus was most common, with photosensitivity as a prevalent symptom.

This study found that C. japonicum flower extract significantly increased melanin content and cellular activity in human melanocytes and may improve follicular depigmentation and vitiligo through cAMP signaling.

A feedback loop between LRH and RSL4 controls root hair growth in Arabidopsis.

This study demonstrates that LES-hair can detect differential protein expression in specific regions of plucked hair follicles, suggesting its potential for research and clinical applications like monitoring treatment effects in alopecia and cancer therapies.

In this study, a new shading model for hair was developed that better matches real-life light scattering, thanks to detailed new measurements of hair fiber scattering not predicted by existing models.

Ceramide Synthase 4 is crucial for healthy skin barrier function.

In this study, cyclosporine A stimulated hair growth in mouse vibrissae organ culture by promoting matrix cell proliferation and altering growth factor expression.

This review discusses the principles, materials, and applications of melt electrowriting-based 4D printing for creating biomimetic scaffolds, but reports no new clinical results; it highlights recent advancements and remaining challenges in the field.

In this study, oleanolic acid was found to enhance hair follicle growth and promote hair matrix cell proliferation via the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in a human hair follicle organ culture model.

This study found that LGR5 is uniquely expressed in human corneal endothelial cells and maintains endothelial cell phenotypes while inhibiting mesenchymal transformation through the Wnt pathway.

This study found that neurotrophin-4 regulates Cav3.2 T-current expression in D-hair neurons via TrkB receptor activation, highlighting its role in mechanosensitive function.

This study found that low-level laser stimulation activates the Wnt signaling pathway, promoting hair follicle stem cell regeneration and accelerating wound healing.

In this study, BECD-treated wavy hair showed reduced undulation and improved straightening after drying, as BECD enhanced the contraction and rearrangement of molecular chains in non-keratin proteins, unlike untreated hair, which retained its wavy structure.

This article reviews the clinical features, pathogenesis, and treatment strategies for Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia, emphasizing the need for enhanced understanding and early diagnosis, but reports no new research findings.

This study provides evidence that ILC1-like cells can induce alopecia areata in previously healthy human hair follicles, challenging the view that it is solely an autoantigen-dependent autoimmune disease.

Carbon dioxide laser treatment effectively removed facial hair cysts without scarring or them coming back.

In this pilot study, the CNC® device improved body image perceptions in patients with chemotherapy-induced alopecia but did not significantly affect psychological wellbeing; it may help prevent discomfort and enhance everyday life compared to traditional wigs.

This study explored how T cells interact with hair follicles in primary cicatricial alopecias by using spatial transcriptomics across mice, dogs, and human samples, revealing specific communication pathways and potential drug targets like CFD and S100A8/9 for future therapeutic research.

Men with CCCA often face delayed diagnosis and severe hair loss, highlighting the need for earlier recognition and treatment.

This study suggests that caffeine may enhance hair growth and be beneficial for cosmetic applications due to its high binding affinity to keratin, but further validation is needed.

This study established a new in vitro culture system that supports the growth and dynamic self-organization of hair follicle stem cells and their progeny, promoting a stable population equilibrium.

This study found that fibrosis-associated trochanters in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia are enriched with hair follicle stem cells and may indicate a disrupted stem cell niche contributing to scarring.

This study concluded that dermoscopy enhances the diagnostic capability for cicatricial alopecia beyond clinical inspection and identified novel dermoscopic features such as blue-grey dots.

Water extract of cacumen platycladi helps hair growth by affecting specific cell pathways.

In this study, patients with active lymphocytic cicatricial alopecia showed significant improvement using a three-stage treatment regimen involving Tofacitinib, Apremilast, and Crisaborole, with 93.5% experiencing marked improvement and only three mild adverse events reported.

This study reported that Cacumen Platycladi extract significantly reduced hair loss and increased hair density in a 12-week clinical trial, suggesting it may be a safe and effective natural treatment.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African-descent females, discussing possible causes, associated styling habits, and potential treatments, but reports no new clinical findings; the authors call for further research.
