This study suggests that the cell membrane complex in hair cuticles contains hydrophilic regions with disulfide bonds allowing polymer uptake and hydrophobic lamella-like lipid layers.

This study used electron microscopy to identify a distinct dendritic cell in the human epidermis, similar to the melanocyte, with unique structural features and variable melanin content.

Tiger tail banding and hair abnormalities are reliable indicators for diagnosing trichothiodystrophy.

In this case study, a neoadjuvant therapy combining gemcitabine and Disitamab Vedotin proved effective and safe for a muscle-invasive bladder cancer patient with severe renal insufficiency, who could not tolerate platinum-based treatments. The study suggests this regimen may be a viable alternative, pending further research.

TRIV-509 quickly improves skin barrier and cell health in atopic dermatitis.

In this study, cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) treatment in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells was associated with increased intracellular calcium retention and activated anagen-related signaling without causing significant cytotoxicity, indicating its potential impact on hair growth processes.

This article discusses the diagnostic challenges between certain neonatal scalp conditions and highlights the potential of line-field confocal optical coherence tomography to provide detailed, non-invasive skin examination, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study found that contrast enhanced phototrichogram (CE-PTG) significantly improved detection of various hair types and growth stages in androgenetic alopecia compared to standard PTG and was comparable to biopsy analysis.

Hair follicle dermal stem cells help control hair growth timing by regulating signals at the hair germ–dermal papilla interface.

This study found that the enzyme encoded by Dgat1 acts as a retinol acyltransferase in murine epidermis, protecting against retinoid toxicity and alopecia by preventing retinol accumulation.

Using a combination of specific cell cycle regulators is better for safely keeping hair root cells alive indefinitely compared to cancer-related methods.

This study proposed a hypothesis for cutaneous calcinosis, suggesting that feeding DHT and subsequent epilation lead to ATP release and calcium orthophosphate formation, initiating calcification in rats.

This study identified molecular differences between dysplastic nevi and common melanocytic nevi, including altered keratinocyte differentiation, increased hair follicle-related molecule expression, and distinct immune microenvironment characteristics in dysplastic nevi.

This article is a letter discussing optical coherence tomography-assisted diagnosis of follicular keratosis of the chin and reports no new research findings.

This study found that a histochemical stain using 4-dimethyl-aminocinnamaldehyde effectively distinguishes between plucked anagen and telogen hairs by causing the root ends of anagen hairs to develop a red color.

In this case report, a 22-year-old female was diagnosed with follicular Dowling-Degos disease based on clinical and histological findings, with symptoms including skin lesions confined to hair follicles. The report emphasizes the importance of differentiating this rare variant from similar conditions for proper management.

This study generated a transcriptomic map of human hair follicle compartments, providing a database for identifying compartment-specific gene expression which may aid in developing targeted treatments for hair follicle disorders.

This study found that for anterior cervical discectomy fusion in patients with degenerative cervical disc disease, the PEEK cage resulted in greater pain reduction, while the dynamic cervical implant maintained a slightly better range of motion.

This study found that, compared to oxidative treatments, reductive perm-waving more severely impacts the intermediate filaments in European human hair, while both treatments alter denaturation kinetics in a first-order manner.

Hair shaft changes may be linked to CCCA, but their role is unclear.

This study identified a new variety of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia that includes patchy hair loss on the lateral and posterior scalp in African-American women, which could be misdiagnosed as traction alopecia without dermatoscopy and pathology.

This study found that adding dithiodiglycolic acid to the hair straightening process decreased chemical damage and preserved the structural integrity of the hair matrix compared to using thioglycolic acid alone.

This study found that CTHRC1 is crucial for sweat gland function and vascular network integrity in mice, and its administration improved sweat gland performance by reconstructing nearby blood vessels.

This article reviews antibody drug conjugates for cancer treatment, describing their mechanism, recent approvals, and ongoing research efforts, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that carbon dots derived from fucoidan effectively inhibit Enterococcus faecalis and its biofilm, offering a promising approach for managing biofilm-associated persistent endodontic infections.

This review summarizes the main trichoscopic findings for diagnosing common hair and scalp disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that skin computed tomography may effectively identify epidermoid cysts by revealing features consistent with histopathology, potentially serving as a non-invasive diagnostic alternative to biopsies.

Vitamin D3 affects cell differentiation in specific skin areas.

This study found that chemical hair dyes caused more significant microstructural damage to hair than high-temperature perms, as observed using a single-detector OCT system.

This study found that multiple eccrine duct dilation is highly specific for diagnosing cicatricial alopecia and may indicate scarring processes, aiding in accurate differential diagnosis from noncicatricial alopecias.
