This case report illustrates how SNP array testing helped identify a DCAF17 mutation linked to Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome in consanguineous Qatari siblings with shared features including alopecia and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

This study describes dissecting cellulitis of the scalp (DCS) as a rare and aggressive form of chronic scalp inflammation presenting with pustules and nodules, commonly affecting males and African Americans, and leading to significant quality of life impacts and psychological distress.

This report describes three Saudi sisters with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, who exhibited typical features of the condition along with unusual gynecological anomalies.

This study found that the new minoxidil formulation, DC0120, was noninferior to the marketed product ALOSTIL® in promoting hair growth for men with androgenetic alopecia over 16 weeks.

This study found that extracts from Hom Thong banana peels, rich in phenolic compounds, may inhibit melanin production in human and mouse melanoma cells, showing potential as anti-melanogenic agents comparable to standard treatments like arbutin and kojic acid.

This study identified a splicing-site deletion in the DCAF17 gene associated with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome in a large consanguineous pedigree, leading to typical phenotypic features.

This study found that concentrated nanofat, used alone or with decellularized nanofat, may enhance hair growth in mice by activating dermal papilla cells and the anagen phase.

This case report describes a patient in whom vitiligo was induced by diphenylcyclopropenone treatment for alopecia universalis, highlighting the potential overlap of susceptibility genes between the two conditions.

This study reported that among obese women with PCOS, neither early time-restricted eating (eTRE) alone nor combined with probiotics showed significant improvements in blood pressure, inflammatory markers, oxidative stress, or antioxidant capacity compared to a standard reduced-calorie diet.

In this study, researchers identified key genes such as EDNRB2, GPNMB, TRPM1, TYR, and DCT that regulate melanin deposition in the breast muscles of black-boned chickens, contributing to their unique pigmentation during embryonic development.

In this study, post-treatment with DCO was found to speed up epidermal wound healing after micro-needling of 3D skin models while maintaining the treatment's immunostimulatory benefits, potentially optimizing aftercare and reducing patient recovery time.

In this study, researchers found that papain-treated or mechanically altered Asian scalp hair fibers allowed for spontaneous ion movement and anthocyanin dye flow through the medulla tube, with dye flow enhanced by applied DC voltage.

In this study, a case of dissecting cellulitis of the scalp was reported in a man after starting dupilumab therapy, highlighting potential immune pathways involved and the importance of recognizing such paradoxical inflammatory reactions to prevent irreversible alopecia.

This case study reported significant clinical improvement in a 26-year-old male with dissecting cellulitis of the scalp after treatment with upadacitinib, suggesting that JAK inhibitors may be a promising option for refractory cases, where standard treatments have limited success.

This review explores the efficacy and safety of treatments for dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, revealing a predominance of case reports and series, and concludes that randomized controlled trials are needed for better evidence-based therapies.

This study found that Diphenylcyclopropenone (DCP) was effective for treating extensive alopecia areata in Thai patients, although a high relapse rate suggests maintenance therapy might be necessary.

This study reported that a combination of Myo-inositol and D-chiro-Inositol improved clinical and laboratory parameters in teenage girls with PCOS compared to a placebo.

This article offers HTML content and a downloadable PDF but does not provide an abstract or new findings for summary.

This study confirms that human CD34+ melanocyte stem cells can be differentiated into melanin-producing cells, suggesting potential for cellular therapy in treating skin degenerative diseases.

The document says a skin condition called alopecia areata causes hair loss and stress, and is treated with strong skin creams, injections, or other therapies, but treatment success varies.

The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat scarring hair loss conditions.

This study found that the natural estrogen Estetrol (E4) may promote hair follicle growth and prevent miniaturization, suggesting its potential as a treatment for hair loss disorders.

This study generated a transcriptomic map of human hair follicles, identifying compartment-specific gene expression profiles that can aid in developing targeted therapies for hair follicle disorders.

Wnt and SHH signals together influence hair follicle cell development, offering insights for hair loss treatment.

Activating Wnt in skin cells controls the number of hair follicles by directing cell movement and fate.

Aging weakens sweat glands due to reduced support from immune cells, but treatments may help restore function.

Hair transplantation can lead to rare scalp complications, requiring careful follow-up and treatment.

This study observed unexpected heterogeneity among pigment cells in human scalp hair follicles, identifying immature melanocyte populations outside traditional pigment production zones, raising questions about their potential roles beyond melanin synthesis.

This study highlights that dissecting cellulitis of the scalp affects a diverse racial population and is associated with male sex, metabolic dysfunction, and psychiatric comorbidities, challenging its traditional characterization as primarily a disorder of Black men.

In this case report, an 11-year-old girl with dissecting cellulitis of the scalp showed an excellent response to oral isotretinoin after other treatments failed, highlighting the treatment challenges and need for awareness in managing this rare condition.
