This study identified a significant trend among Black women towards less frequent use of complex hairstyles and salon visits over 30 years, while managing grey hair became a key element of personal and social identity.

This study found that sustained ERK activity during tissue regeneration in spiny mice is linked to fibroblast growth factor and ErbB signaling, while inhibiting ERK shifted regeneration toward scarring.

This study found that super-enhancers are essential for hair follicle stem cell identity, lineage commitment, and plasticity in mice, with SOX9 being a key regulator of these chromatin dynamics.

This article discusses the bi-compartmental organization of hair follicle stem cell niches for balancing stem cell cycling and organ growth and proposes similar structures may exist in other adult stem cell niches but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that a combination of low-fluence Q-switched 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser, hydroquinone cream, and oral tranexamic acid showed promising results for Riehl’s melanosis in Asian patients, with no serious adverse events reported.

This study found that continuous expression of epidermal growth factor in transgenic mice prevented hair follicles from entering the catagen phase, implicating EGF as a crucial regulator in hair cycle progression.

This study found that inhibiting AP-1 activity in mice modified tumor development, leading to transdifferentiation between squamous and sebaceous tumors, with molecular analysis suggesting AP-1's role in maintaining tumor cell identity.

This study explored the molecular mechanisms determining the identity of keratinocytes and corneal epithelial cells, finding that miRNAs from the Gtl2-Dio3 region, which regulate key signaling pathways, play a significant role in cell identity through the Hox/Gtl2-Dio3 miRNA axis.

This study identified three subgroups of women with PCOS with distinct androgen profiles, finding that the subgroup with adrenal-derived androgen excess had the highest insulin resistance and rates of hirsutism and hair loss.

This review explores the role of macrophage subsets in adult cutaneous wound healing and emphasizes their potential for therapeutic targeting, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that Sox2 within dermal papilla cells in the hair follicle regulates hair pigmentation, influencing the type and production of melanin.

This study found that in lactating Holstein cows, hair from the tail switch, which grows faster and is more sensitive to cortisol changes, is ideal for measuring hair cortisol levels.

This study found that disrupting Sox21 in developing teeth leads to severe enamel hypoplasia, regional osteoporosis, and abnormal hair formation, with impaired dental epithelial differentiation and regulation of hair follicle cell fate.

This study used quantitative methods to identify new geometric and mechanical parameters of curly and kinky/coily hair, aiming to improve classification and develop better personal care products for these hair types.

This study found that active telethermography could help identify cancerization fields in individuals with actinic keratosis by detecting hyperthermic halos around tumors, which showed significant changes after treatment with a photolyase device.

This study suggests that while low-cost videomicroscopes can correctly identify hair shaft alterations, they may be unreliable for detailed follicular and perifollicular trichoscopic examination compared to standard videodermatoscopes.

This study found that exposing adult esophageal epithelial cells to skin stroma can induce them to transition toward a hair follicle identity, with HIF1a playing a crucial role in this conversion process.

This study found that STAT5 activation in the dermal papilla acts as a key switch to trigger anagen entry in postdevelopmental hair follicle cycling.

This study found that Ift20 is essential for hair follicle stem cell identity and hair regrowth, and it regulates keratinocyte migration during wound healing through focal adhesion integrin recycling, independently of ciliogenesis.

This case report describes a 39-year-old woman whose dermatomyositis-systemic lupus erythematosus overlap syndrome symptoms resolved after switching to tofacitinib.

In this research, the authors identify coordinated mechanical forces as crucial for hair follicle development in mammals, with contractile, proliferative, and proteolytic activities facilitating the formation and sectioning of epithelial structures crucial for forming a functional tissue.

This case report presents the first instance of a pediatric alopecia areata patient switching from baricitinib to ritlecitinib, demonstrating favorable clinical outcomes, suggesting a potential new treatment pathway for children with severe cases of this condition.

In this study, researchers used a mouse model to identify an adipocyte-to-fibroblast conversion pathway that promotes mast-cell recruitment and dermal fibrosis in atopic dermatitis, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach to block this process and reduce inflammation and fibrosis.

This review outlines drug repurposing as an efficient, low-cost strategy to identify new uses for existing drugs, highlighting various computational and experimental approaches as well as publicly available databases to aid in personalized pharmacotherapy.

This study observed that quiescent label-retaining cells in the intestine, identified by Paneth cell markers, can switch to a proliferative state and activate Bmi1 expression during tissue injury, contributing to tissue regeneration.

This article discusses the emotional and psychological impact of severe alopecia areata on patients, emphasizing feelings of loss, vulnerability, and self-identity changes, and reports no new results.

This paper explores the social challenges individuals with medical hair loss face when using wigs, highlighting the complex identity management involved and the social obligations to disclose wig use to close ones.

This case report documents a woman with HIV who developed severe hair loss after starting lopinavir-ritonavir, which improved upon switching to a different antiretroviral drug.

This study found that PRC2 plays a non-instructive role in adult hair follicle stem cells, with its loss not affecting quiescence or cell identity, despite upregulation of genes linked to activation.

This paper analyzes Hilary Mantel's memoir, "Giving Up The Ghost," highlighting how childhood family dynamics influenced her bodily perceptions and acceptance of female gender identity, impacting her experience of endometriosis symptoms.
