This review discusses the evolution of the term “hot comb alopecia” to central cicatricial centrifugal alopecia (CCCA) and highlights the ongoing debate over hairstyling practices' role in its pathology, without offering new clinical results.

This study observed that trichoscopic patterns, such as yellow dots and honey comb patterns, correlate with the severity of androgenetic alopecia in Indian patients, highlighting trichoscopy's diagnostic and prognostic value.

This study found that FDA-approved low-level light/laser therapy devices significantly increased hair density in individuals with pattern hair loss compared to sham devices.

This study found that conditioner agents reduced the damage caused by oxidative hair dye, specifically improving protein retention and combability in treated Caucasian hair.

This study found that brushing hair increases the ratio of long-to-short segment breaks compared to combing, with factors like bleaching and wet combing contributing to more long segment breaks.

A young boy's uncombable hair is due to a rare genetic condition that usually improves over time.

This review discusses primary cicatricial alopecias, detailing their classification, pathogenesis, clinical features, histopathologic findings, and treatment, without reporting new experimental results.

This review discusses strategies for regenerating cutaneous nerve function in burn patients and highlights the potential role of autologous skin-derived adult stem cells in improving sensory recovery, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that hair thickness and density increased after treatment with human follicle mesenchymal stem cells and platelet rich plasma, associated with enhanced Wnt signaling and platelet derived growth factors.

This review discusses photothermal agent hybrids in hydrogels for antibacterial action, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis in tissue engineering, but reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses the development and selectivity of 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors, particularly non-steroidal ones, and reports no new clinical trial results.

Raspberry ketone may help grow hair and improve skin elasticity.

This study found that reduced expression of CD200R1 on monocyte-derived macrophages in rheumatoid arthritis patients was significantly associated with higher disease severity and an imbalance in Th17/Treg cells.

This paper suggests that ketoconazole 2% shampoo may enhance finasteride's effectiveness in treating androgenetic alopecia by more completely inhibiting the dihydrotestosterone pathway.

This study found that in vitro, cultured bulge cells from human hair follicles possess properties of primitive cells, supporting the hypothesis that hair follicle stem cells reside in the bulge area.

In this study, researchers identified novel long non-coding RNAs related to cashmere fineness in goats, highlighting a potential regulatory network involving lncRNA XLOC_008679 and its target gene KRT35.

This review discusses the mechanisms of skin aging, highlighting the roles of stem/progenitor cells, genetic and environmental factors, and suggests potential for cell-based therapies, but reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses physiological skin changes and specific dermatoses in pregnancy but reports no new clinical results, emphasizing careful diagnosis and management due to potential fetal risks in rare cases.

This study found that maternal sub-maintenance nutrition reduced the density and branching ratio of secondary wool follicles in Merino sheep fetuses and identified genes potentially involved in these processes.

This review discusses the relationship between zinc deficiency and skin disorders, emphasizing zinc transporters' roles, but it reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight potential benefits of regulating zinc levels via transporters.

This study found that 1,540 nm fractional erbium-glass laser treatment combined with topical minoxidil significantly increased hair regrowth in alopecia areata patches compared to minoxidil alone, with response rates of 60% versus 16%, though the long-term effects remain unknown.

This study developed and validated a reliable method to measure finasteride levels in human plasma, which was successfully used to assess its pharmacokinetics after a 5 mg dose in healthy volunteers.

This study developed a high performance capillary electrophoresis method, validated for both legal and illicit minoxidil-based products, to confirm minoxidil's presence alongside known impurities.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.

This study reported that compounds isolated from Alpinia zerumbet significantly promoted hair cell growth and exhibited anticancer activity in cell cultures, suggesting potential as treatments for alopecia and cancer.

This study found that boehmite accelerates hair regrowth by promoting human dermal papilla cell proliferation and enhancing signaling pathways involved in the hair follicle cycle.

This article highlights the need for dermatologists to understand male-specific anatomical and physiological differences to optimize aesthetic treatment outcomes for men, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review examines the role of topoisomerase-interacting drugs in cancer treatment and emphasizes the importance of understanding their mechanisms for clinical development, but it presents no new results.

This laboratory study found that nonanal, a plant scent compound, may stimulate growth factors and cell proliferation in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells, suggesting a cAMP-mediated mechanism.

This study found that human mesenchymal stem cells overexpressing JAM-A improved hair follicle structure and hair formation in mice by reducing abnormalities such as curved and zigzagged follicles.
