This report describes four cases of patchy, non-scarring alopecia areata that spared gray hairs and affected only pigmented hairs.

This study found that homocysteine-keratin accumulation in human hair increases towards the tips, linked to copper/iron-catalyzed demethylation of methionine, and may contribute to keratin damage.

This report documented a successful and sustained hair restoration surgery using follicular unit transplantation for temporal triangular alopecia, lasting over six years.

In this study, two patients with localized hair thinning showed histopathological signs typical of alopecia areata, responding to corticosteroid treatment similarly to classical cases.

This study developed a composite hydrogel that delivered multiple proteins, enhancing skin wound healing by accelerating closure and promoting hair follicle regeneration.

This review discusses the role of scalp imaging techniques in trichology for researching drug delivery and toxicology, without presenting new clinical results.

This case report documents a rare instance of a female Indian patient with borderline-lepromatous leprosy experiencing generalized leprous alopecia of the scalp and lepromatous lymphadenitis of the suboccipital node.

This report describes a rare case of pili multigemini, where multiple hair shafts arise from a single follicle, discovered during an examination for folliculitis on a patient's abdomen.

In this case report, a 25-year-old man with nevus comedonicus showed no improvement from keratolytics and topical tretinoin, but had success with surgical excision of the lesions.

In this case report, researchers detailed a giant proliferating pilomatrixoma in a 36-year-old woman, emphasizing the importance of complete excision to prevent recurrence or potential malignant transformation, distinguishing it from malignancies like angiosarcoma or melanoma.

This study observed that CTUMP's Herb shampoo significantly improved hair growth and density in mice compared to a saline solution, though it was less effective than minoxidil in promoting follicle development.

This case report highlights a patient with Ayme-Gripp syndrome, revealing an association between the syndrome and hypothyroidism, and underscores the importance of considering rare genetic conditions in differential diagnoses of endocrinopathies.

This case report describes an adolescent boy with congenital triangular alopecia who showed significant hair regrowth after eight months of treatment with 5% topical minoxidil, achieving full coverage of the affected area without adverse effects.

This study found that platelet-rich gel is a simple and effective non-surgical method for healing exposed skull injuries, resulting in complete healing with minimal scars and sparse hair growth in all patients.

This study reported a rare case where a pheochromocytoma produced ACTH, leading to cyclic Cushing syndrome, and underscores the importance of considering this possibility in cases of ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism with an adrenal mass.

This case report describes the first use of photobiomodulation therapy with a continuous wave red laser (660 nm) as monotherapy for alopecia areata, resulting in significant hair regrowth within 7 days, though further research is needed for conclusive evidence.

A 19-year-old male with delayed puberty was successfully treated for a condition that prevents normal hormone production.

The woman's rare combination of diseases suggests an unknown factor may predispose individuals to multiple endocrine diseases.

This case report emphasizes the importance of investigating physical symptoms in patients with depression, as persistent loss of libido in this patient led to the diagnosis of craniopharyngioma.

This article discusses the latest trends in hair restoration surgery and reports no new clinical findings, highlighting the continued unsatisfactory nature of drug therapies for androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that the mammalian hairless gene encodes a corepressor protein that interacts with thyroid hormone receptors, providing insights into hair loss syndromes in humans and mice.

This study found that IMT-P8, a novel cell-penetrating peptide, effectively facilitated the dermal delivery of proteins and peptides in mouse skin and cell lines, suggesting potential for topical applications in cosmetics and skin diseases.

In this study, a novel electrochemical sensor using a molecularly imprinted polymer was developed for the sensitive detection of minoxidil, successfully measuring its concentration in real samples.

In this study, rice bran supercritical CO2 extract demonstrated potential to promote hair growth in mice, increasing hair follicles and growth factor expression, similarly to 3% minoxidil.

This study found that androgenic alopecia at an early age was associated with a lower risk of prostate cancer, contrary to assumptions about androgens' role.

In this study, microneedles combined with finasteride nanostructured lipid carriers (FIN-NLC-MNs) were found to enhance skin penetration and specifically target hair follicles, promoting hair growth and gene regulation in androgenetic alopecia.

This study reports that transplantation of an ESCs-collagen-chitin biomimetic membrane leads to successful in situ skin regeneration, including hair follicle cell proliferation and formation of dermatoglyphs, in nude mice with full-thickness skin defects.

In this study, researchers found that deleting Caspase-9 in hair follicle stem cells delayed apoptosis, leading to accelerated wound repair and new hair follicle regeneration by maintaining apoptotic cells as signaling centers.

This study found that a novel missense mutation in the vitamin D receptor caused hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets with alopecia by disrupting protein function, highlighting the importance of DNA binding in hair development.

This study found that Annurca apple polyphenolic extracts reprogram hair follicle metabolism in mice, enhancing mitochondrial activity and keratin production while inhibiting some metabolic pathways.
