This case report describes an 18-year-old male with IFAP syndrome, confirmed by total hair loss, severe photophobia, and characteristic skin changes, marking a rare presentation of the condition.

In this animal study, finasteride exposure led to impaired spermatogenesis in rats, while the novel compound DA-9401, derived from three medicinal herbs, demonstrated potential in improving sperm parameters and reducing testicular apoptosis when used alone or with finasteride.

This case report describes a 6-year-old girl with IFAP syndrome who showed good improvement in cutaneous symptoms after one month of acitretin treatment.

This case report describes a 68-year-old man who developed both alopecia areata and bullous pemphigoid after starting linagliptin for diabetes, suggesting a possible link with DPP-4 inhibitors.

This study found that Ecklonia cava polyphenols increased human dermal papilla cell proliferation and extended hair shaft length in vitro and ex vivo, suggesting potential as a therapeutic candidate for hair loss.

This study established a protocol to isolate and culture dermal papilla cells from human hair follicles, suggesting alkaline phosphatase activity as a key marker to differentiate them from human fibroblasts.

In this study on mice, a baricitinib-loaded microneedle patch enhanced hair growth in alopecia areata lesions (68% vs control: 33%, p < 0.05), suggesting it may deliver treatment effectively and pain-free, with fewer systemic side effects.

This study demonstrated that PEGDA hydrogel microwells successfully supported cell survival and proliferation while mimicking hair follicle architecture in vitro, suggesting a potential tool for hair follicle engineering.

This study found that the desmosomal protein desmoplakin is crucial for proper epidermal morphogenesis and radial intercalation in developing Xenopus embryos, affecting keratin organization and ectodermal structures.

In this study, researchers developed a model using iPS-derived cells to trace and evaluate hair follicle differentiation, which could aid in the development of hair growth treatments.

This study explored the potential of hair follicle dermal papilla cells for multilineage differentiation in embryos, highlighting their plasticity and regenerative capabilities.

This research found that topical minoxidil may promote hair regrowth in alopecia areata by stimulating hair follicle epithelium and suppressing certain immune responses, with potential contributions from its vasodilatory effects.

This study found that in Arabidopsis seedlings, tonoplast intrinsic proteins are targeted to the vacuole via at least two pathways, including pathways with differing sensitivity to a chemical inhibitor that affect root hair growth and PIN2 targeting.

This study found that the combination of Pandan Wangi leaves and Noni fruit extracts may inhibit fungi commonly associated with dandruff, suggesting potential use in anti-dandruff shampoo formulations.

Tinea capitis can be quickly diagnosed and treated using dermoscopy to prevent hair damage.

This article reviews strategies like microemulsions to improve adapalene delivery in acne treatment but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, Apricot Kernel Oil treatment in Wistar rats showed dose-dependent improvements for seborrheic dermatitis induced by DNFB, including reduced inflammation and oxidative stress and enhanced skin structure.

This study suggests that a biomaterial-based approach using microneedles and ion solutions to deliver SiO3 2− ions may disrupt inflammatory cycles and improve outcomes in inflammatory dilated cardiomyopathy (iDCM).

This study identified novel mutations in the DSG4 gene in a Japanese patient with monilethrix, affecting protein interactions that may disrupt hair shaft structure.

This study identified a large deletion in the desmoglein 4 gene as the genetic basis of the Iffa Credo "hairless" rat's skin phenotype, linking it to lanceolate hair mutations.

In this study, an ammonia-free and PPD-free permanent hair dye was tested on 50 ethnically diverse females, showing no cases of contact dermatitis and significant improvements in hair shine, color, moisturization, porosity, and combability after two dyeing sessions.

MK-386 reduces sebum DHT levels.

In this study, researchers used a CRISPR-based method to correct mutations in the COL7A1 gene in stem cells from RDEB patients, restoring normal collagen expression in engineered skin grafts in mice.

This study found that in a mouse model of Focal Dermal Hypoplasia, treatment with lithium carbonate improved skin disease symptoms compared to controls, though disease severity varied and posed interpretation challenges.

In this study, Dheedhi Hair Care herbal shampoo significantly reduced hair fall and dandruff compared to a regular shampoo, with no reported side effects.

This review examines topical immunotherapy for severe alopecia areata, noting that diphencyprone and squaric acid dibutylester are non-mutagenic options with similar efficacy but different practical considerations, and reports no new clinical results.

This study introduced a Density-Calibrated Airtouch Protocol (DCAP) that suggests customizing the Airtouch hair coloring technique based on client hair density to optimize color blend, pigment longevity, and hair health.
