This study found that variations in chromium levels along individual hair shafts reflect changes in the individual's chromium nutritional status over time, rather than environmental exposure.

CCCA in women of African ancestry may be caused by PADI3 gene mutations and intense hair grooming.

This study found that a peripilar white gray halo around hair emergence is a highly specific and sensitive dermatoscopic feature for diagnosing central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American patients with mild central thinning.

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.

This study, using a reporter mouse line, characterized diverse subtypes of dopaminergic neurons in the enteric nervous system, identifying unique subtypes with potential roles in gut function and disease.

This study reported that an injectable hydrogel based on platelet-rich plasma and laponite improved wound healing in diabetic and normal rats by enhancing angiogenesis and macrophage polarization.

This article outlines the potential for upregulating the vitamin D receptor in treating hair disorders, emphasizing the need for further studies to evaluate vitamin D's role in the hair cycle.

MultiKano accurately identifies cell types in complex data better than existing methods.

Basonuclin is crucial for hair follicle development and cycling in mice.

This review explores disorders of sex development, emphasizing the need for a systematic, multidisciplinary approach and the benefits of genetic testing for better diagnosis and gender assignment planning, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that the PPARγ modulator NAC-GED-0507-Levo may protect hair follicles from chemotherapy-induced damage, potentially offering a strategy to address irreversible hair loss in cancer patients.

In a neonatal rat model, this study found that topical CDK2 inhibitors reduced chemotherapy-induced hair loss in 33 to 50% of the animals, suggesting a potential strategy for preventing alopecia in cancer patients.

This study explored using a chitosan oligomer coating for topical delivery of dutasteride-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers, aiming to reduce systemic exposure and cytotoxicity.

The study found that over-expressing ornithine decarboxylase in the outer root sheath of the hair follicle in mice increases UVB-induced tumor growth and invasive squamous cell carcinoma compared to inter-follicular epidermal keratinocytes.

This study analyzed the care provided to gender-dysphoric Veterans at VANCHCS and concluded that a more consistent, team-based approach could improve their treatment outcomes.

This study suggests that alkaline phosphatase-regulated expression of CCL5 contributes to the trichogenicity of human dermal papilla spheres.

In this study, the proposed MSF-VMDNet, combining dual encoder networks with a multi-frequency domain mechanism, significantly outperformed existing methods in segmenting skin cancer tissues from histological slide images, achieving high accuracy with an MIoU of 95.37% and a Dice coefficient of 95.11%.

In this study, the researchers synthesized copper-doped mesoporous silica nanoparticles and observed that they enhance tumor microenvironment regulation and, when paired with disulfiram, effectively kill cancer cells while also showing synergistic anti-tumor effects with immune checkpoint inhibitors.

This review discusses the role of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in skin wound repair and explores how photobiomodulation may affect chronic wound healing, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers found that the novel gene circCFAP20DC enhances the proliferation of goat follicular granulosa cells by activating the RB pathway, facilitating their progression from the G1 to S phase during follicular development.

In this study, the DIET-AI model, developed from a large dataset of over 200,000 images, demonstrated diagnostic performance for 31 skin diseases comparable to dermatologists of varying experience levels in 15 hospitals across China, supporting its potential effectiveness in clinical settings.

This study found that the new HCC additive enhances the permeation of pigments and active ingredients into hair, suggesting potential use in developing functional cosmetic hair products.

This study developed and evaluated a photographic scale to assess CCCA pattern and severity in African American women, finding it reproducible when used by investigators and participants.

This study found that dutasteride-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers coated with a stearic acid-chitosan oligomer are stable, less cytotoxic, and suitable for topical delivery to promote hair growth.

This study developed a deep learning-based method that identified 3,620,516 potential drug-disease associations, suggesting a promising tool for large-scale virtual screening in drug research.

This review discusses the role of epidermal differentiation complex genes and epigenetic mechanisms in skin development and certain diseases, emphasizing their potential for improving drug development and delivery systems but provides no new experimental results.

This study reported that Dkk4-knockout mice showed disrupted hair follicle patterning, suggesting a WNT-DKK axis may influence regional specificities in hair follicle induction related to androgenetic alopecia.

This case study highlights the challenges inpatient psychiatric teams face in managing end-of-life care for patients with advanced Alzheimer's, particularly in honoring DNR/DNI orders and coordinating hospice transfers.

In this study, researchers identified Tenascin-C as a marker for touch dome keratinocytes, which maintain themselves and can develop into Merkel cells following injury, showing they share molecular traits with various epidermal keratinocytes.
