Turning scar-forming cells into fat cells can reduce scarring.

This study identified a novel recessive mutation in mice causing lethal congenital lamellar ichthyosis, with skin and hair follicle alterations similar to human congenital ichthyoses, linked to a specific genetic defect affecting Fatp4.

Minoxidil can cause deadly skin reaction; monitor patients closely.

This study found that dermal adipocytes contribute to efficient skin repair by releasing fatty acids that recruit macrophages and transforming into myofibroblasts that aid wound healing.

This study found that early male hair loss treatment with Puregraft fat and low-dose adipose-derived regenerative cells increased terminal hair counts at 24 weeks compared to a saline control, indicating promise for androgenetic alopecia treatment.

This review discusses the limitations and techniques of fat transfer for facial rejuvenation, focusing on achieving safe and long-term aesthetic outcomes without providing new clinical results.

This study observed that long COVID symptoms differed between patients infected in the Delta and Omicron periods, with those in the Omicron period experiencing milder illnesses but more fatigue, insomnia, and cough.

This study found that deleting Snai2 and Snai3 genes in mice disrupts immune cell development, resulting in severe autoimmunity and early death due to the loss of immune tolerance.

This study found that injecting minced fat into the facial artery of rabbits was associated with higher rates of ophthalmic complications and mortality compared to fat granules or fat lipids.

In this cadaveric study, lipofilling was found easier to perform on the face than the scalp, whereas nanofat grafting was particularly suited for precise injections in scalp areas, suggesting a combination of techniques could aid in treating alopecia.

This review notes that while ATX-101 showed a favorable safety profile for reducing submental fat in clinical trials, serious adverse events related to procedures have been reported in real-world use, prompting recommendations for improved management and prevention strategies.

This study analyzed watercress oil and confirmed its phytochemical profile, UV absorption properties, and potential efficacy for hair growth, supporting traditional hot oil applications.

This study found that incorporating human adipose subcutaneous tissue in 3D organotypic skin cultures mimicking hypertrophic scar conditions improved epidermal homeostasis, formed a basement membrane similar to native skin, and reduced myofibroblast presence, indicating an anti-fibrotic effect.

This study found that transplanting adipose tissue into the rat dorsum supported long-term skin expansion by enhancing thickness, vascularization, and cell proliferation, with adipose-derived cells actively contributing to skin regeneration and growth factor expression.

The FTO gene hinders stem cells in hair follicles from becoming pigment cells.

This study observed that gerbils on a fat-deficient diet had altered fatty acid composition in various organs and exhibited hair loss, reduced testis development, and often lower body weight compared to those on a fat-supplemented diet.

This study found that mustard oil and unsaturated fatty acids completely suppressed dermatophyte growth and prevented hair penetration at concentrations of 1% and above in Sabouraud's dextrose agar medium.

In this study, ASC-enriched autologous fat grafting was found to be more effective and satisfying than conventional fat grafting for treating facial contour deformities with hyperpigmentation.

This study reported that autologous whole fat injection in the scalp considerably increased hair growth in patients with androgenetic alopecia.

This study observed complete resolution of neuropathic pain symptoms in a patient after a fat grafting PRP procedure, suggesting it may be a less invasive treatment alternative.

This study reports that a nutritional complex may improve hair density and quality, with in vitro findings demonstrating inhibition of 5α-reductase, and participants noting reduced hair loss and greasiness.

This case report documents a rare fatal instance of Rapunzel syndrome in a child, highlighting the use of postmortem CT and MRI to reveal trichobezoar-related bowel obstructions and perforations as the cause of death.

This research found that the most common symptoms among COVID-19 patients at Afzalipour Hospital during the first peak were shortness of breath, dry cough, fever, myalgia, and fatigue, with fever more frequent in those under 50.

Fat grafting before hair transplant may improve hair growth in scarring alopecia.

This retrospective study observed that hair grafting in burn and postskin graft scars, which preserve deeper skin layers, had more favorable outcomes than in scars extending to the subcutaneous layer.

In this study, FLI was significantly higher in women with PCOS and NAFLD compared to those without NAFLD, and an FLI < 30 could not effectively rule out NAFLD in lean PCOS patients.

This study found that dermal condensates are specified before hair follicle niche formation and require FGF20 and Wnt signaling for precursor specification, advancing understanding of niche formation and function during development.

This article reviews regenerative therapy for treating various types of hair loss and does not present new clinical findings.

This study found that the guided SEFFI technique for facial volume restoration and anti-aging is minimally invasive with a low complication rate, suggesting it as a promising treatment option.

This case study reports that pancreatic enzyme replacement and fatty acid supplementation improved symptoms of fat malabsorption and essential fatty acid deficiency in a patient with EDS-4.
