This study found that while laser hair removal improves quality of life for women with facial hirsutism, emotional benefits diminish over 30 months and additional treatments may be necessary to maintain improvements.

This animal study found that finasteride, a 5-alpha reductase type 2 inhibitor, decreased dihydrotestosterone levels and c-Fos protein activation in the rat brain, but these effects may diminish after discontinuing the drug.

In this study, activating TRPV1 nociceptors in mice skin stimulated dormant hair follicles and promoted hair growth through a mechanism involving dermal macrophages, fibroblasts, and neuropeptides, highlighting a new role for nociceptors in tissue recovery after injury.

This review discusses persistent adverse effects of 5α‐reductase inhibitors, like diminished libido and erectile dysfunction, in some patients and highlights the need for patient discussions before therapy, especially for androgenetic alopecia.

This symposium discussed why regenerative capacity varies among species and diminishes with age, exploring how these insights could inform regenerative medicine approaches, without presenting new experimental results.

This study highlights that the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2)-Akt signaling axis is essential for hair follicle stem cells to return to their niche and regenerate effectively by regulating metabolic pathways.

This study found that repeated immunization against melatonin in Australian feral goats temporarily increased cashmere production and altered growth cycles, but these effects diminished after the first year.

This study found that acute finasteride treatment decreased ethanol intake in male C57BL/6J mice, whereas chronic treatment showed diminished effects, implying compensatory changes in neurosteroid modulation.

This case report describes a 17-year-old boy with alopecia areata who had vitamin D deficiency and an incidentally discovered adrenal ganglioneuroma, with alopecia receding after vitamin D supplementation but later recurring despite normalized vitamin D and no tumor return.

This study found that cyclosporine A treatment at 5 mg/kg/day may reduce inflammation and promote gland regeneration in dogs with sebaceous adenitis, though symptoms returned when treatment stopped.

This case study of a patient with dissecting cellulitis of the scalp found that multiple medications, including isotretinoin, achieved only modest improvement, and symptoms returned after treatments were stopped.

This review discusses the physiological basis, history, and current development of male hormonal contraception, highlighting its potential risks and benefits, but reports no new research findings.

This study identified acute localized telogen effluvium as a histopathologic mechanism for temporal hair loss following rhytidectomy.

This case report observed that an adolescent female experienced hair loss with fluoxetine and sertraline, which resolved with venlafaxine, suggesting potential alopecia as an adverse reaction to these SSRIs.

This case report describes a rare instance where scalp psoriasis mimicked severe alopecia, initially misdiagnosed as central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.

This study identified acute localized telogen effluvium as a potential cause of temporal hair loss following rhytidectomy.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia causes significant psychological distress, particularly in women, who exhibit a more negative body image and less adaptive functioning compared to controls.

This review examines current knowledge on human epithelial hair follicle stem cells, their markers, and outlines challenges in translating findings from murine studies to human research, but does not report new experimental results.

This study found that antisense oligonucleotides can significantly reduce androgen receptor expression in cultured human sebocytes and may offer new therapeutic possibilities for androgen-associated skin diseases.

Finasteride temporarily lowers male rat fertility without affecting libido.

This review discusses the multifaceted roles of hair follicles in skin health, including potential contributions to skin neoplasias, and reports no new results.

This case report describes a 54-year-old woman who developed hypertrichosis around a leg ulcer while using PGE1 ointment, suggesting a potential side effect of the treatment.

Dermatoscopy helps track scar changes and guide treatment.

This case report describes a 9-month-old male infant with Netherton syndrome, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and treatment initiation for better management of symptoms and prevention of misdiagnosis.

Mammalian organs regenerate using stem cells and cell plasticity, but this ability declines with age.

The document reports unique growth lines in a child after Stevens-Johnson syndrome, skin reaction from parsnips and sun in a girl, and itchy skin with xanthomas in a boy with Alagille syndrome.

This article reviews the design and objectives of the Rotterdam Study, as well as summarizes major findings, without reporting new results.

This article suggests that modern lifestyle changes, including diet, stress, and chronic anti-inflammatory medication use, may disrupt the natural process of inflammation resolution, increasing vulnerability to chronic disease.

This review discusses the crosstalk between auxin and ethylene in seedling growth and development, emphasizing how ethylene modulates auxin's effects across different tissues.

This review examines the role of nerves in regeneration across various species and discusses their importance as components in the progenitor cell niche, reporting no new clinical results.
