Certain immune cells in atopic dermatitis skin could be targeted for treatment.

This study examined 201 Korean academic articles on scalp and hair research from 1994 to 2024, finding a shift from technique-driven studies to more interdisciplinary, application-oriented research, reflecting broader industrial, medical, and psychological interests over time.

This study describes a functional disorder in the ovary, known as stromal hyperplasia, characterized by the proliferation of ovarian stroma and luteinization of stromal cells, which is linked to excessive androgen production and elevated testosterone levels.

This study found that inhibiting the enzyme PDE8A can promote adipocyte differentiation and enhance hair growth in an animal model of androgenetic alopecia, suggesting PDE8A as a potential therapeutic target for restoring dermal adipogenesis and hair cycling.

This study used whole-genome resequencing to analyze genetic diversity and selection in 17 rabbit breeds, identifying genes linked to traits like coat color and body size, which could inform breeding and conservation efforts.

This study found that specific dermoscopic signs, such as diameter diversity of leukotrichia and Pohl-Pinkus constrictions, were associated with progressive vitiligo, and early-stage melanin synthesis was impaired in vitiligo-associated leukotrichia.

This study used advanced single-cell RNA and chromatin sequencing to investigate differences in peripheral blood cells between mild and severe alopecia areata patients, uncovering shared transcription factor motifs that may explain disease severity and open avenues for future research on therapeutic targets.

This study investigated age-related changes in female scalp dermal fibroblasts, finding alterations in gene and protein expressions associated with fibrosis and senescence, which could potentially affect hair follicle health and contribute to aging-related hair changes.

This study found that intralesional triamcinolone acetonide is more effective and faster than platelet-rich plasma in promoting hair regrowth for scalp alopecia areata.

This research reexamined transcriptomic data to study stem and progenitor cell proliferation in psoriasis, finding that the number of committed progenitor cells increased eight-fold in psoriatic skin without altering stem cell numbers, potentially identifying new therapeutic targets.

This review discusses genetic susceptibility and dietary factors influencing COVID-19 severity and summarizes the genetic variants linked to infection outcomes, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the Piezo1 ion channel reduces the efficiency of keratinocyte migration, and its inhibition in mice accelerates wound healing.

This article provides issue information for the September 2020 edition of the British Journal of Dermatology and contains no new research findings.

In this study, researchers observed that men with androgenetic alopecia had a higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome compared to those without alopecia, which may warrant early screening for metabolic syndrome to prevent coronary artery disease, despite the study's small sample size.

This study mapped 65 intermediate filament genes in the human genome, highlighting that the majority of keratin-related sequences are inactive pseudogenes, notably for keratins 8 and 18.

This review discusses hair keratins and hair follicle-specific epithelial keratins and their association with inherited hair disorders, reporting no new clinical results.

This study reports the cloning and expression details of two new human type II keratins, K6irs3 and K6irs4, in the hair follicle's inner root sheath, suggesting a distinct functional role related to hair structure.

This study reports previously unrecognized cellular complexity in growing mouse incisors, suggesting species-specific differences in cell dynamics between mouse and human teeth related to growth and differentiation.

This study determined that an mFG score of 5 or greater defines hirsutism among Southern Chinese women, with prevalence and score thresholds decreasing with age.

This study utilized a sequence-structure alignment approach to improve the characterization of Class A Rhodopsin GPCR superfamily, including orphan and unclassified receptors, through evolutionary analysis.

In this study, researchers identified a putative ovine KAP24-1 gene in sheep, revealing four unique DNA sequences with some similarity to KRTAP24-1 sequences from other species.

This study found a rare germline mutation in the Birt–Hogg–Dubé gene in a Japanese patient with renal cell carcinoma, suggesting distinct biological features and challenging current renal tumor classifications.

This study identified 43 compounds in Platycladi Cacumen, including flavonoids, and found significant chemical variation in flavonoid content across different regions and processed products.

This study found that α3β1-integrin is crucial for maintaining normal hair follicle morphology in mice, as its deficiency leads to severe abnormalities despite not affecting interfollicular epidermal differentiation.

This narrative review outlines the diverse symptoms and possible mechanisms behind long COVID, such as immune dysregulation and viral persistence, while discussing ongoing and potential treatments, highlighting the current lack of proven effective therapies.

This study found that the S. epidermidis A/C lineage is more pathogenic due to its metabolic and genomic versatility, which allows it to adapt quickly from a commensal to a pathogenic lifestyle.

This study identified a nonsense mutation in the zinc-finger domain of the hairless gene associated with congenital atrichia in a Japanese family, indicating a potential genetic cause for this rare form of alopecia.

A rare skin growth was successfully removed without recurrence after one year.

This study found that brothers of women with PCOS exhibit elevated DHEAS levels, indicating a potential familial genetic trait, but did not show increased rates of premature balding.

This study outlines the Human Gene Correlation Analysis tool, which classifies human genes by coexpression levels and identifies overrepresented annotation terms in correlated gene groups, with no new clinical results reported.
