This study found that while malignant pilomatricomas maintain some keratin expression patterns seen in benign counterparts, they notably express additional epithelial keratins, potentially influencing tumor calcification.

In this study, researchers identified two de novo germline missense mutations in the hair keratins hHb1 and hHb6 in patients with monilethrix whose parents were not clinically affected.

This study suggests that sinapic acid may promote hair growth in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells by activating specific signaling pathways and inducing the expression of growth factors.

This study found that arctiin, a compound from Arctium lappa, demonstrated protective effects against oxidative stress-induced dysfunction in human hair dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential therapeutic use for alopecia.

This study demonstrated that human hair follicle stem cells can be efficiently differentiated into endothelial-like cells using VEGF and bFGF, suggesting their potential as a novel cell source for vascular tissue engineering.

This review discusses recent advances in the genetic understanding of inherited hair and nail disorders and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that costunolide promotes hair growth in both lab-cultured human hair follicle cells and in live mice by modulating growth factor pathways.

This study found that adnexal acantholysis does not reliably distinguish pemphigus vulgaris from pemphigus foliaceus, but the level of acantholysis and degree of dyskeratosis serve as distinguishing features among acantholytic disorders.

In this study, researchers developed a method to efficiently derive contractile smooth muscle cells from human hair follicle stem cells using TGF-β1 and PDGF-BB, which may advance vascular tissue engineering.

This study found that the methanolic heartwood extract of Avicennia marina significantly inhibits 5α-reductase type 1, reducing 5α-DHT production by 52% in a cell-based assay with human hair dermal papilla cells.

This review examines the interaction between hedgehog and Wnt/β-catenin signalling in hair follicles and basal cell carcinoma, linking Hh pathway inhibition to both tumor regression and alopecia.

This study in engineered mouse models suggests that some basal cell carcinomas may originate from hair follicle tissue stem cells upon leaving their stem cell niche.

This study established an efficient short-term culture system for human hair follicle stem cells using human fibronectin and ROCK inhibitor Y-27632, enhancing cell proliferation and stemness for potential applications in hair follicle tissue engineering.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma may influence the proliferation of human hair dermal papilla cells by affecting gene expression related to the cell cycle.

This review discusses the development of targeted therapies for basal cell carcinoma that interfere with Hedgehog signaling and reports no new research findings.

This study found that erythrocytes can be generated from human hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells with OCT4 expression, potentially serving as an alternative source for transfusions.

In this study, researchers found that basal cell carcinomas with common Hedgehog signaling mutations may require additional mutations to hyperactivate downstream signaling and progress beyond dormancy.

This study found that human hematopoietic mesenchymal stem cells increased the viability and migration of human outer root sheath cells in an in vitro alopecia areata model, involving Wnt/β-catenin and JAK/STAT pathways.

This study suggests that interfollicular epidermal keratinocytes with stem-like features may serve as an alternative to follicular keratinocytes for hair regeneration by supporting hair follicle morphogenesis in vivo.

This study found that mesenchymal stem cells from adipose tissue and hair follicles have a similar ability to differentiate into neurons, which could aid in developing therapies for neurological diseases.

In this study, basal cell carcinoma developed in Ptch-deficient mice only after chemical treatment, not skin wounding, suggesting a second unknown event is necessary for tumor formation.

This study found that an extract from the root of Sophora flavescens Aiton significantly improved hair growth in patients with androgenetic alopecia over 6 months.

This article discusses the complexities in diagnosing hair shaft disorders and the potential insights hair microscopy can provide, without reporting new clinical findings.

This review highlights that while sonidegib and vismodegib offer promising treatment options for advanced basal cell carcinoma, their use is often limited by treatment-emergent adverse events, which can be managed through protocol modifications and supportive interventions.

This review discusses historical and recent advances in understanding the embryonic organizer's role in patterning during development, including molecular pathways and future research challenges, but reports no new experimental data.

This study found that applying HHORSC exosomes may enhance the hair inductivity of dermal papilla cells, potentially improving treatments for hair loss.

This study found that intravenous transplantation of human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells improved trabecular bone mass in osteoporotic mice by enhancing bone formation and reducing bone resorption.

This study found that reinforcing clayey soil with human hair fibers increased its strength significantly, both before and after freeze-thaw cycles, suggesting its potential use in cold climate zones.

This study observed that mice with a whole-body deficiency of Cystathionine-β-synthase developed severe hyperhomocysteinemia and related mild symptoms without increased mortality, indicating HHCy may not directly cause end organ damage.

This study found that human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells effectively maintained human embryonic stem cells in an undifferentiated state, comparable to mouse embryonic fibroblasts under standard conditions.
