This article discusses methods to measure comedogenesis in acne through the presence of microcomedones and reports no new clinical results; the authors outline a skin surface biopsy technique using cyanoacrylate gel.

This study found that applying scalp sebum from young men to rabbit ear canals caused follicular hyperkeratosis, suggesting sebum stimulates the formation of comedones, a key feature in acne vulgaris.

This review describes the toxicities associated with calcineurin inhibitors, used in kidney transplantation, which include nephrotoxicity, cardiovascular and endocrine issues, and quality of life impacts, without reporting new clinical results.

The human hair follicle can store topical compounds and be targeted for drug delivery with minimal side effects.

This study identified four novel DSG4 mutations associated with monilethrix in 12 Jewish families, suggesting a recessive inheritance pattern and broader prevalence of DSG4-related hair disorders than previously recognized.

In this study, co-grafting human keratinocytes with murine dermal papilla-enriched cells produced hair follicle-like structures, but without regular hair formation, suggesting anomalous folliculogenesis.

This article reviews various medical treatments for hidradenitis suppurativa based on the author's experience with over 350 patients, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews lichen planopilaris, a chronic scarring alopecia, and explores recent treatment developments, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study describes characteristic trichoscopic features of various hair loss diseases and proposes an algorithmic method for diagnosing them, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the combined use of strip method and FUE techniques for hair transplantation along with a real-time intraoperative calculation model to reduce graft over-extraction and wastage, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers identified PSENEN mutations that can lead to a form of Dowling-Degos disease, characterized by follicular hyperkeratosis and an increased susceptibility to acne inversa, especially in the presence of certain trigger factors.

Stem cells in developing hair follicles move to specific areas as they mature.

This study found that deleting the miRNA processing enzymes Drosha and Dicer from mouse skin epithelial cells disrupted normal hair follicle development and maintenance, leading to follicular degradation and stem cell loss during the growth phase.

The study reported that combining the Follicular Closing Technique with the Franz diffusion cell is a valuable method for investigating follicular caffeine penetration in vitro, though kinetics differ from in vivo results.

This study suggests genetic and clinical heterogeneity in keratosis pilaris atrophicans, with variations in inheritance patterns, severity, and response to treatment among 21 individuals observed.

This article reviews acne keloidalis in young black men, describes its clinical and histopathological characteristics, and highlights surgical therapy approaches despite the uncertain etiology of the condition.

This study developed minoxidil sulphate-loaded chitosan nanoparticles that doubled drug delivery to hair follicles in vitro compared to a control solution, suggesting potential for improved alopecia treatment.

HGF activator helps convert HGF to its active form, promoting hair growth.

This review discusses female pattern hair loss, its psychological impact, and available treatments but provides no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize early intervention for better outcomes.

This review discusses various theories of the causes and management strategies for hidradenitis suppurativa, reporting no new experimental results, with a focus on the immune basis of the disease.

Immunocompromised patients can develop skin and hair issues due to a virus.

In this study, researchers found that connexin 43-negative cells in the basal layer of the epidermis could serve as markers for keratinocyte stem cells, aiding their identification and separation.

This study found that overexpression of a mutated ornithine decarboxylase transgene in mice led to complete hair loss, which could be prevented or reversed with an ODC inhibitor.

This study concluded that combining vertical and transverse sections of scalp biopsy specimens improves diagnostic yield for certain hair disorders without increasing costs.

This study reports that plasma rich in growth factors appeared to improve hair follicle regeneration and patient satisfaction in individuals with androgenetic alopecia, though further trials are needed.

This article proposes five mechanisms for telogen effluvium based on changes in the follicular cycle, which are supported by clinical findings, highlighting the condition's diverse causes.

This review discusses the role of oxidative stress in hair greying and suggests that understanding melanocyte susceptibility at different follicular locations may help develop therapies for preventing and reversing the process; it reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses diagnostic approaches for women with diffuse, nonscarring hair loss and reports no new clinical results.

This paper argues that the cycling hair follicle serves as a valuable model for systems biology research, highlighting its potential for translational medicine.

This study suggests that the presence of Malassezia yeast in biopsy specimens from cats with multifocal or generalized skin lesions indicates the need for a thorough assessment for internal neoplasia.
