In this case report, a woman with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome and hidradenitis suppurativa showed significant improvements in both conditions after six months of treatment with tofacitinib, a Janus Kinase inhibitor, with no recurrence or adverse events noted during a two-year follow-up.

This study found that targeting both hormonal and immune pathways improved treatment outcomes in androgenetic alopecia patients with an under-recognized inflammatory component called PIILIF, which may contribute to treatment resistance.

This report describes a case of SAPHO syndrome likely triggered by escalated dosing of infliximab in a 21-year-old woman, highlighting the complex nature of infliximab-induced adverse events, and suggesting a potential autoimmune basis involving two distinct pathophysiologies for SAPHO syndrome.

This review emphasized the significance of biliary fibrosis in hepatobiliary disorders, exploring its clinical manifestations, epidemiology, and cellular factors, and provided insights into current clinical trials and strategies for managing fibrosis-related cholangiopathies.

This study identified overlapping genetic susceptibility loci in both alopecia areata and inflammatory bowel disease, specifically with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

This study reports that in systemic sclerosis, CD34+ dermal fibroblasts transition to CD34−, podoplanin+, and CD90+ fibroblasts across the dermis, suggesting a role in unchecked fibrosis.

This study found that ACKR2 plays a crucial role in reducing inflammatory skin fibrosis and promoting inflammation resolution through IFN‐β production, limiting tissue scarring.

This study demonstrates that FMOD deficiency in mice alters TGF-β ligand and receptor expression during wound healing stages, leading to delayed wound closure and increased scar size.

In this study, researchers using single nuclei RNA-sequencing found that fibroblasts in deeper layers of mouse skin expressed higher levels of pro-inflammatory genes post-wounding compared to other cells, highlighting their significant role in early inflammation and tissue repair processes.

Fibroblasts are crucial in scar formation and wound healing, with potential therapies aiming for scarless healing.

In this case report, a female mixed-breed dog was observed with dermatophytosis, presenting with alopecia in the neck and ear, highlighting the zoonotic nature of the infection caused by fungi that can affect both animals and humans.

This review discusses advances and challenges in skin tissue engineering, focusing on developing 3D constructs for functional skin substitutes, and reports no new clinical results.

This case report concludes that the presence of distinctive histiocytic responses in a Cambodian woman's eyelid lipogranulomas suggests surreptitious silicone injections despite her denial of prior procedures.

In this review, researchers explored the multifaceted role of NF-κB signaling in various biological processes and diseases, including its interactions with other pathways, and discussed possible therapeutic approaches targeting this pathway for treating conditions like cancer, autoimmune disorders, and COVID-19.

In this study, researchers suggest that hair follicle miniaturization in conditions like androgenetic alopecia may result from impaired conversion of quiescent stem cells to progenitor cells, influenced by the follicular niche, its collagen network, and various mechanical constraints.

This study concluded that the CXCL12–CXCR4 signaling pathway significantly contributes to hair loss in androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata by promoting inflammation and fibrosis, whereas inhibiting this pathway can restore hair growth and follicle health.

In this study, TENS of the T6 dermatome over a longer term was explored for its effects on weight, blood pressure, heart rate, and appetite-regulating hormones in obese subjects with moderate obstructive sleep apnea; however, results are not reported in the abstract.

This case report describes a 39-year-old woman whose dermatomyositis-systemic lupus erythematosus overlap syndrome symptoms resolved after switching to tofacitinib.

In this study, researchers discovered that fat grafting helps reduce dermal fibrosis in radiation-injured mouse skin by decreasing specific fibroblast subpopulations associated with Fra/c-Jun signaling.

The researchers reported a case where treatment with tofacitinib improved both hair loss and skin lesions in a patient with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome and hidradenitis suppurativa over six months, with no recurrence or adverse events during two-year follow-up.

This review explores the diverse roles and heterogeneity of fibroblasts across different organs, highlighting their potential involvement in both normal tissue functioning and fibrotic diseases, but reports no new experimental results.

In this study, researchers used a mouse model to identify an adipocyte-to-fibroblast conversion pathway that promotes mast-cell recruitment and dermal fibrosis in atopic dermatitis, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach to block this process and reduce inflammation and fibrosis.

This study reports that some patients with androgenetic alopecia may also exhibit clinical and histological features of inflammation and fibrosis, similar to those found in lichen planopilaris.

This study describes a newly observed "inflammatory vellus involvement" pattern in early frontal fibrosing alopecia, which may lead to misdiagnosis due to the absence of typical histological features.

This study found that infrared thermography might be a useful non-invasive tool to help diagnose frontal fibrosing alopecia by identifying active phases of the disease.

In this case report, a female patient with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome and hidradenitis suppurativa showed significant improvement in symptoms, including hair loss and lesions, after six months of treatment with tofacitinib, with no recurrence or adverse effects over a two-year follow-up.

This article discusses inflammatory perifollicular fibrosis and alopecia but provides no new research findings.

This study found that WISP-1 plays a key role in ligamentum flavum fibrosis through the Hedgehog-Gli1 pathway, with cyclopamine showing potential to reduce fibrosis effects in a rabbit model.

This study suggests that infrared thermography may be a useful noninvasive tool for diagnosing active phases of frontal fibrosing alopecia when combined with dermoscopy.
