This study found that SARS-CoV-2 hijacks the host factor IGF2BP1 to stabilize its RNA and enhance translation, and identified Cepharanthine and Trifluoperazine as potential treatments against the virus.

This study found that C. obtusa oils promoted hair growth in shaved mice and increased the expression of a hair growth regulator, VEGF, in a cell line.

This study observed that minoxidil significantly downregulated 5α-R2 gene expression in human keratinocyte cells, suggesting an antiandrogenic mechanism of action in alopecia.

This study demonstrated that keratin extract can stimulate hair growth by inducing the anagen phase in telogenic mice.

In this study, Desmodesmus pannonicus water extract demonstrated significant antioxidative properties, inhibited melanin production, promoted wound healing in human keratinocyte cells, and showed potential for hair growth enhancement in human follicle dermal papilla cells, suggesting its promise for future dermatological applications.

In this study, researchers investigated how 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) impacts hair follicle cells, finding that it delays hair growth by inhibiting angiogenesis and β-catenin signaling. This discovery could help develop treatments for chemotherapy-induced alopecia in cancer patients receiving 5-FU.

This study found that the E6 gene, but not E7, was responsible for HPV8-induced expansion of keratinocyte stem cells in hair follicle junctional zones in mice.

This review discusses various natural substances used in scalp improvement cosmetics and reports their potential benefits, without providing new clinical results, and suggests more comprehensive studies are needed.

This study found that JNK plays a dominant role in hair follicle matrix density-dependent proliferation and differentiation, suggesting that collagen bundling affects keratinocyte dynamics.

This study reports that cannabinoid receptor type 1 may influence psoriasis development by modulating laminin-511 expression, suggesting a potential target for treatment.

This study found that using a contrast agent in Microbeam Radiation Therapy simulations increased the target dose but concluded that using a linear accelerator as an X-ray source did not preserve MRT advantages.

In this study, a child with Alopecia Areata underwent art therapy, leading to reduced anxiety and stress levels and improved emotional expression and motivation for treatment, suggesting art therapy as a suitable psychosocial intervention for this condition.

This study reported successful repigmentation without scarring in patients with localized and segmental vitiligo after epidermal grafting, but the Koebner phenomenon hindered similar results in some with generalized vitiligo.

This study suggests the existence of a new subtype of alopecia, called 'acute diffuse and total alopecia of the female scalp (ADTAFS)', characterized by acute, diffuse hair loss primarily in women and a rapid recovery.

This study found that the stratum corneum of scalp skin in humans has distinct functional characteristics compared to the facial skin and volar forearm, including higher hydration levels and intermediate epidermal turnover rates.

This study found that human follicular papilla cells in the scalp produce leptin and express functional leptin receptors, suggesting leptin's significant role in hair biology.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have significantly higher scores for affective temperaments and anxiety and depression than healthy controls, suggesting risk for depressive and anxiety disorders.

This study suggests a new subtype of alopecia, termed 'acute diffuse and total alopecia of the female scalp' (ADTAFS), characterized by acute and total hair loss in women with a favorable recovery profile.

This case report suggests that tufted hair formation can occur in localized exudative inflammatory scalp lesions, as observed in a Japanese man with pemphigus vulgaris.

This study found that Ber-EP4 immunoreactivity is present in specific areas of hair follicles across different stages of the hair cycle, particularly in the secondary hair germ, but not in mature anagen follicles.

This study found that a topical vitamin D3 analogue had an anti-proliferative effect on guinea pig skin epidermis.

In this study, seven patients with generalized toxic erythema developed sterile pustules localized to hair follicles or sweat ducts, with most having a history of medication, solvent exposure, or infection.

This study investigated the immunohistochemical characteristics of keratin proteins in epidermal appendages, finding variable staining patterns in different skin structures and tumor cells, which suggests differences in keratinization.

This study compared serum and hair steroid hormone profiles in adolescents and found that hair steroid profiling is a feasible, non-invasive alternative to serum analysis, with androgen levels in both mediums correlating more strongly with body size and composition in boys than in girls.

This study found that using a new technique to apply platelet-rich plasma during surgery improved early outcomes in hips with avascular necrosis, including in patients previously treated for Covid-19.

This study found that using a new method to apply platelet-rich plasma during surgery improved early outcomes for patients with hip avascular necrosis, including those with a history of Covid-19.

This article reviews various cosmetic and skincare products used in dermatology for preventive and treatment purposes, highlighting their role in conditions such as atopic dermatitis, photoaging, and male pattern baldness, but reports no new results.

This study found that DHEAS levels were lower in anti-TPO Ab positive PCOS patients compared to those who were negative, indicating a possible link between autoimmunity and reduced DHEAS in these patients.

In this case report, a 17-year-old with systemic lupus erythematosus showed improvement in erythema multiforme-like lesions after treatment with methylprednisolone.

This review examines the adaptive value and mechanisms of seasonal coat colour moulting in birds and mammals, highlighting the challenge of camouflage mismatch and the necessity for evolutionary adaptation under climate change.
