The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Alopecia Associated With Syringomas
The report suggests a possible link between hair loss and hidden scalp tumors but states more evidence is needed to confirm this.
research Hair Loss in Children
Most hair loss in children is caused by a few common conditions, and it's important to diagnose these properly and support the child's mental health.
research Reply
Dr. Rasmussen disagrees with Alexander and Schor, emphasizing uncertainty in genital wart transmission and advocating for discussions on potential abuse and referrals in such cases.
research C002 Vasculitis: A Differential Diagnostic Approach
The document concludes that corticosteroids effectively treat vasculitis allergica in over 90% of cases, with long-term kidney issues being the main adverse outcome.
research Lymphoproliferative Disorders
Skin lymphoproliferative disorders are hard to diagnose and often linked to systemic diseases, but most have a good prognosis with accurate diagnosis.
research Birt-Hogg-Dube Syndrome with a Novel Mutation in the FLCN Gene
A new mutation in the FLCN gene linked to Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome was found, suggesting people with certain lung collapse should be tested for this mutation and screened for kidney and colon cancer.
research Comedonal and Cystic Fibrofolliculomas in Birt-Hogg-Dube Syndrome
Early detection of specific skin lesions can help identify Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome and prevent serious complications.
research Molecular Genetics of the PI3K-AKT-mTOR Pathway in Genodermatoses: Diagnostic Implications and Treatment Opportunities
The document concludes that understanding genetic mutations in the PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway can lead to better diagnosis and treatment for certain genetic skin disorders.
research Porokeratotic Eccrine Ostial And Dermal Duct Nevus And Porokeratotic Eccrine And Hair Follicle Nevus: Is Nomenclature 'Porokeratotic Adnexal Ostial Nevus' More Appropriate?
The term "Porokeratotic Adnexal Ostial Nevus" is suggested as a more appropriate name.
research Human TSC2-Null Fibroblast-Like Cells Induce Hair Follicle Neogenesis and Hamartoma Morphogenesis
Cells from a skin condition can create new hair follicles and similar growths in mice, and a specific treatment can reduce these effects.
research Embryology, Histology, and Physiology of the Hair Follicle
The document explains how hair follicles develop, their structure, and how they grow.
research Dissociated Human Dermal Papilla Cells Induce Hair Follicle Neogenesis in Grafted Dermal-Epidermal Composites
Human skin cells can create new hair follicles when transplanted into mice.
research Functional Hair Follicle Regeneration: An Updated Review
Hair follicle regeneration possible, more research needed.
research Deciphering the Functions of the Hair Follicle Infundibulum in Skin Physiology and Disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Desmoplastic Trichoepithelioma: Histopathologic and Immunohistochemical Criteria for Differentiation of a Rare Benign Hair Follicle Tumor From Other Cutaneous Adnexal Tumors
The document concludes that recent studies help tell apart desmoplastic trichoepitheliomas from other skin tumors, but more research is needed for clear differentiation.
research Regenerative Medicine Approaches for Engineering a Human Hair Follicle
New treatments for hair loss show promise, including plasma, stem cells, and hair-stimulating complexes, but more research is needed to fully understand them.
research Histopathological Characteristics May Not Be Useful in the Differential Diagnosis Between Basal Cell Carcinoma and Benign Tumors of Cutaneous Appendages Originating from Hair Follicle
Looking at tissue characteristics isn't reliable for telling apart basal cell carcinoma from certain benign skin tumors.
research Mesenchymal Cell Specific Deletion of TSC2 Regulates Hair Follicle Development and Patterning
TSC2 is crucial for proper hair follicle development and patterning.
research Uncombable Hair Syndrome and Beyond
Uncombable hair syndrome causes frizzy hair and can affect the nervous system, eyes, and ears, often co-occurring with other hair, skin, nail, and teeth conditions, and is linked to three specific gene mutations.
research Expression Patterns of Gli-1, Pleckstrin Homology-Like Domain, Family A, Member 1, Transforming Growth Factor-β1/β2, and p63 in Sebaceous and Follicular Tumors
The research suggests that p63 and TGF-β1 may help determine tumor type and malignancy in hair follicle and sebaceous tumors.
research From Basal Cell Carcinoma Morphogenesis to Alopecia Induced by Hedgehog Inhibitors: Connecting the Dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
research Review of Scalp Alopecia Due to a Clinically Unapparent or Minimally Apparent Neoplasm (SACUMAN)
SACUMAN, a rare condition causing hair loss without clear signs, is often misdiagnosed and needs scalp biopsies for accurate detection.
research Alopecia: A Pathologist's View
The review concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires proper biopsy techniques and understanding the hair growth cycle and underlying causes.
