This study found that using a standardized protocol with microspheres of approximately 1.5 micrometers enhances penetration into hair follicles, particularly when skin is treated with cyanoacrylate skin surface stripping.

This study suggests that folliculin, mutated in Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome, and its partner FNIP1 may play a role in energy and nutrient sensing through the AMPK and mTOR pathways.

This viewpoint essay discusses the potential of fullerene C60 derivatives as novel treatment agents in dermatology, highlighting their ability to act as both radical scavengers and oxygen radical generators.

This study suggests that human hair follicle cells and epidermal keratinocytes differ in their degree of keratinization and other characteristics when cultured on mixed collagen membranes.

This study found that patients with mycosis fungoides have higher levels of cardiovascular risk markers, suggesting an increased cardiovascular risk in this group compared to healthy controls.

The researchers in this study identified molecular mechanisms involved in frontal fibrosis alopecia, highlighting immune response and fatty acid metabolism, and developed a four-gene diagnostic model showing high accuracy in distinguishing affected individuals from controls.

This study observed that dermoscopic features of skin affected by topical corticosteroids and hydroquinone correlated with histopathological changes, highlighting the importance of awareness regarding their long-term adverse effects.

This report describes a 27-year-old patient with Ehler-Danlos syndrome who also presented with hypophosphatasia and mastocytosis, and suggests enzyme replacement therapy might alleviate symptoms in such overlapping genetic conditions.

This review explores the potential role of caveolin-1 in cicatricial alopecia, particularly frontal fibrosing alopecia, and discusses possibilities for targeted therapies without providing new research results.

This review suggests that excessive facial photoprotection could play a role in frontal fibrosing alopecia through a disturbance in immunological balance via the aryl hydrocarbon receptor-kynurenine pathway.

This study found that segmental single hair analysis produced ocfentanil concentration profiles similar to those from hair lock analysis, supporting its use in cases with limited samples.

This study suggests that keratoacanthomas may be distinguished from squamous cell carcinoma by identifying hair follicle structures, based on keratin expression and histological features observed in tumor samples.

This study found that key amino acids lost from hair due to weathering can be successfully reintroduced through cosmetic treatments, improving hair strength and aesthetics.

This research found that a biodegradable fibrous membrane incorporating fibroblast-derived ECM accelerated wound healing and improved neovascularization in a mouse model.

This study found that treatment with EGFR inhibitors or mitogen-activated kinase inhibitors may compromise the immune privilege of human scalp hair follicles, suggesting new directions for managing drug-induced folliculitis.

This study optimized and validated a dissolution test method for immediate-release finasteride capsules, highlighting the need for an official standard due to variability in commercial products.

This study evaluated the effect of 2% ketoconazole lotion for androgenetic alopecia, but the results regarding its effectiveness on clinical appearance remained unclear.

In this case report, a 21-year-old woman diagnosed with ACTH-independent Cushing syndrome showed improvement in symptoms, including a more regular menstrual cycle and lower hirsutism, after starting treatment with ketoconazole, although she developed hypertension.

This report describes the first known case of frontal fibrosing alopecia in a genetically unrelated couple, suggesting the potential role of environmental factors in its development.

This study observed that noncertified Kohl used in Iranian cities contained heavy metals within WHO suggested limits, but highlighted concerns due to high levels in some samples.

This letter to the editors discusses the nature of alopecia in Cronkhite–Canada syndrome and questions whether it is truly telogen effluvium, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study demonstrated that cryogelation of human hair keratin allows the development of 3D scaffolds with tunable properties, supporting cell adhesion and proliferation for potential biomedical applications.

This study reviewed the current state of intralesional therapy for keratoacanthoma, finding that while methotrexate, 5-fluorouracil, and interferon alpha are common agents, guidelines are still needed, and histopathological confirmation is advised to prevent misdiagnosis with squamous cell carcinoma.

This paper reviews the emerging role of FGF-7 signaling in hair regeneration, highlighting its potential as a target for new therapies despite limited clinical trial data.

This study reports that cancer patients experiencing chemotherapy-induced alopecia actively engage in Facebook groups for support, instructions, and product recommendations related to scalp cooling, but only 5% consult dermatologists for hair loss concerns, highlighting the platform's influence on patient treatment decisions.

This review summarizes recent advances in understanding intermediate filament structure and their implications for pathological mutations and human diseases, but it reports no new experimental results.

This study suggests that the CsA-induced inactivation of the CaN/NFAT pathway may suppress TGF-β2 expression in dermal papilla cells, potentially contributing to CsA-associated hypertrichosis.

This study found that a newly developed supramolecular FPC hydrogel effectively promotes wound healing through its anti-inflammatory and angiogenic properties, making it a promising material for wilderness first aid due to its storage convenience, sprayability, and ability to speed up wound recovery.

This study found that mutant Cx43 impairs fibroblast function during wound healing and reduces hair follicle cell proliferation, likely contributing to hair growth defects in ODDD patients.

This commentary reviews the concerns of hair restoration surgeons regarding donor planning in follicular unit extraction (FUE) but provides no new experimental results.
