In this study, researchers developed a new hydrogel incorporating fibroblast growth factor 21 that improved wound healing in diabetic mice by reducing inflammation and enhancing skin repair, suggesting strong potential for future clinical application in diabetic wound management.

This study examined uncharacterized CYP21A2 gene variants related to non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia and found that several mutations reduce enzyme activity, which may help improve diagnostic and treatment strategies.

This source reports that SET may offer notable cosmetic improvements and enhance well-being for patients with CA, serving as a cost-effective treatment option either alone or alongside hair transplantation.

This study found that repeatedly collecting hair follicles from individuals with fragile X syndrome is feasible for measuring FMR1 and FMRP levels in both home and office settings.

This study identified a new genetic variant in the KRT71 gene responsible for a breed-specific form of hypotrichosis in Hereford cattle, potentially serving as a model for similar human conditions.

Topical tofacitinib helped a man with severe scalp condition after other treatments failed.

In this study, Kampo medicine was frequently prescribed for general fatigue in long COVID, particularly the formula hochuekkito, suggesting its potential as a treatment option.

This study found that metformin increased follicle-stimulating hormone levels and decreased kisspeptin concentrations in Iraqi women with polycystic ovary syndrome, with gene variations potentially influencing treatment response.

This paper discusses the diagnostic challenges and treatment options for folliculotropic mycosis fungoides, emphasizing the differing prognoses between its indolent and aggressive subtypes and reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, a novel liposomal formulation combining caffeine and cafestol significantly enhanced their penetration into human skin layers, with formulation F9 doubling caffeine and greatly increasing cafestol levels in the dermis, suggesting potential for improved topical delivery.

This study found that overexpressing FGF22 in dermal papilla cells enhanced hair follicle stem cell proliferation and viability, while its knockout reduced these attributes, indicating its role in hair follicle regeneration.

In this case study, a 69-year-old woman with severe hypercortisolism developed acute adrenal insufficiency after starting ketoconazole treatment, highlighting the need for cautious dosing and close monitoring of adrenal function, particularly in patients with prior glucocorticoid exposure.

This review outlines the current regulatory framework for cosmetics under the FD&C Act, highlighting that they are less strictly regulated than drugs, but notes potential future changes due to proposed legislations requiring stronger safety measures.

This study found that organ-cultured human scalp hair follicles can mimic chemotherapy-induced damage in vivo and serve as a model to explore molecular targets and protective agents for hair follicle preservation.

This study found that a key gene signature, including FGF11, highlights the immunologic nature of keloid lesions, distinguishing them from normal fibroblasts and scars.

This review discusses the cornification process of epidermal keratinocytes in forming the skin barrier and reports no new results; it emphasizes the importance for diagnosis and treatment of skin disorders.

This review reports that cubosomes, used as drug nanocarriers in topical treatments, offer potential benefits for managing skin and eye diseases by improving bioadhesion, retention, and sustained release compared to conventional formulations, but also face manufacturing and biological challenges for effective clinical outcomes.

This article discusses the role of hair follicle stem cells in potential breakthroughs for hair cloning and follicular cell implantation, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that cationic surfactant-based conditioning systems significantly improve hair combability by forming a stable low-friction film on hair surfaces, reducing friction and enhancing sensory performance compared to standard systems, as confirmed by both instrumental and sensory evaluations.

This report is the first to associate Cronkhite-Canada syndrome with multiple myeloma, describing regenerative pseudopolyps in a 58-year-old woman rather than true adenomatous polyps.

This research reports that KCV and its palmitoylated derivatives show strong effectiveness in strengthening hair proteins, indicating their potential for use in advanced hair care products.

This study found that a large number of pelage hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells can be efficiently isolated using two-step Ficoll Density Gradient Sedimentation, promoting hair growth by secreting exosomes in mice.

In a laboratory setting, this study found that overexpression of the FGF5 short form in cultured keratinocytes increased hepatic growth factor gene expression, suggesting a potential role in hair growth.

This report observed that discontinuation of cyclosporine led to complete hair regrowth in a child with alopecia, suggesting a potential link between cyclosporine and hair loss.

In this study, sensitization to ethylhexyl salicylate was found in 27.3% of patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting it may be a potential contact allergen for this condition.

In this study, Dodatek A operationalizes the Functional Androgen Axis framework by defining three system-level indices and an efficiency metric to describe androgen function, incorporating key methodological improvements and acknowledging significant limitations for future empirical validation.

Secukinumab reduces immune activity in hidradenitis suppurativa skin.

This study established a 3D in vitro culture system of canine keratinocyte organoids to study epidermal function and address skin disorders in dogs, though additional growth factors are needed for hair follicle development.
