This review summarizes recent findings on how Wnt signaling proteins play crucial roles in the cutaneous wound healing process but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that finasteride competitively inhibits the enzyme AKR1D1 with low micromolar affinity but does not act as a mechanism-based inactivator.

This study reveals that human hair follicles transition between active and dormant states stochastically, challenging the idea of a cyclical automaton controlling hair growth.

This study suggests that chronic stress can lead to decreased skin pigmentation in mice by disrupting the skin's HPA axis, potentially making stress a risk factor for depigmentation.

This study found that the yellow dot pattern observed in dermoscopy of alopecia areata corresponds to inefficient follicular structures containing hair remnants, as corroborated by reflectance confocal microscopy and pathological findings.

The researchers reported that in hairless mice, epidermal cell division orientations and epidermal thickness varied by body site, with dorsal and ear epidermis primarily dividing parallel to the basement membrane, unlike hind paw and tail epidermis.

In this study, researchers reported that chronic UV exposure may contribute to androgenic alopecia progression by influencing hair cycle changes and exacerbating solar elastosis in the scalp.

This study found that a stochastic follicular automaton model replicates hair follicle cycle fluctuations, with deterministic simulations aligning with steady-state levels as follicle numbers increase.

This study found that SK2 channels in sensory terminals of rat muscle spindles and hair follicles may play a crucial role in modulating mechanosensory transduction by influencing receptor potentials through Ca2+-activated K+ currents.

This review discusses various aspects of hair color, including its formation and evolutionary variations, based on research presented at the 4th Intercontinental Meeting of Hair Research Societies 2004, without providing new experimental results.

This study identifies iRhom2 as a crucial regulator of hair follicle differentiation, showing that the iRhom2Uncv mutation leads to dysplasia and reduced TACE maturation, resulting in a hairless phenotype in mice.

This study found that keratins 5, 7, 8, and 19 are expressed in human trophoblast cells while vimentin is solely expressed in stromal-mesenchymal cells, aiding in placental cell type identification.

In this study, researchers identified a new dominant mutation in Hairless mice, called Pied, resulting from a deletion in the Adam10 gene, which causes freckle-like skin pigmentation by inhibiting melanocyte expansion.

This study identified a thiazolidine dione derivative as a potential inhibitor of 15-PGDH that may enhance prostaglandin activity in hair follicles, suggesting its use to support hair regrowth treatments.

This study suggests that mammalian hair follicles may serve as a viable and non-invasive system for diagnosing traumatic brain injury, reflecting similar molecular responses observed in other tissues.

This study demonstrates that the ability of human hair follicle keratinocytes to form clones decreases with ageing.

This study characterized hair from a patient with a ribosomopathy and identified distinct differences, including reduced hair thickness and lipid content, compared to family members.

This study observed that hair characteristics significantly impact daily life, self-image, and well-being, varying by gender, ethnicity, and country, suggesting a need for interventions to address these psychological and social effects.

This review evaluates six primary studies on androgenetic alopecia treatments and suggests topical minoxidil or finasteride as first-line options, recommending further research into treatments and practice guidelines.

This study examined the preservative and antimicrobial susceptibility of non-fermenting bacilli collected from beauty salon waste in Brazil.

This review discusses platelet-rich plasma and microneedling in aesthetic medicine, providing a comprehensive literature summary and practical insights, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that the PTGER2 gene is strongly expressed in cashmere goat skin and its expression tends to decrease from the anagen to telogen stages of the hair follicle cycle.

This study investigated bacterial isolates from Xylocarpus sp. mangrove fruit and found that these symbiotic bacteria exhibit antibacterial, antifungal, and hair follicle growth properties, suggesting potential applications in the cosmetic bioindustry, particularly for treating alopecia.

This study found that 18.1% of health workers at Sanglah Hospital reported anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic, with the highest levels in nurses and those in Non-COVID wards.

This review discusses the use of Kusthadi Lepam for treating Ek-Kustha, which resembles psoriasis, but reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest further research on its efficacy and safety.

This pilot study found that using a topical Carica papaya latex gel for 28 days reduced hair fall and promoted hair regrowth in individuals with Indralupta, although the bald patch size did not significantly change, indicating the potential need for longer treatment or additional interventions.

This study utilized polarized light microscopy to examine hair shafts in ten children with rare genetic disorders, such as Netherton syndrome and ectodermal dysplasia, providing valuable diagnostic insights into hair thickness, composition, and structural irregularities associated with these conditions.

COVID-19 can cause different types of hair loss, with telogen effluvium being the most common.

This study found that most patients hospitalized for COVID-19 experienced persistent symptoms over 100 days post-admission, with no significant difference in symptoms between those treated in regular wards and intensive care units.

This study reports that mutations in the SUR2 gene are linked to Cantu syndrome, highlighting the role of KATP channels in cardiovascular health and potential new therapies.
