This review discusses the challenges in identifying specific hair follicle antigens involved in initiating alopecia areata and highlights the need for further research to understand its etiopathogenesis, reporting no new results.

This review characterizes breast implant illness and its autoimmune symptoms, reporting an association between breast implants and autoimmune diseases, with explantation relieving symptoms in over half of patients.

This study found that patients with RASopathies have lower serum IgA and CD8 levels compared to controls, indicating a potential risk for developing autoimmune disorders.

This review discusses the potential role of melatonin in atopic dermatitis, focusing on its antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This study demonstrated that adding human adipose-derived stem cells to hair follicle germ-like aggregates significantly improved hair shaft generation in transplanted nude mice, suggesting a promising strategy for hair regenerative medicine.

This review discusses the current knowledge on using special and immunohistochemical stains for diagnosing hair disorders, concluding that no stains are recommended for routine use in hair pathology.

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 review discusses current challenges in selective androgen receptor modulator discovery and preclinical evaluation and reports no new results, emphasizing the need for basic research to improve safety and selectivity.

This study found that repeated immunization against melatonin in Australian feral goats temporarily increased cashmere production and altered growth cycles, but these effects diminished after the first year.

Minoxidil does not specifically target any hair follicle cells.

This series of eight North American patients with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp suggests that factors like immunosenescence and ultraviolet damage may contribute to the condition's development.

This review discusses the histological features and diagnostic challenges of alopecia areata and emphasizes the need for genetic research to develop future therapeutics; it reports no new clinical findings.

This case series found that patients with the NUDT15 415C>T variant experienced severe azathioprine toxicity, suggesting genotype-based dosing could reduce adverse effects.

This study found that rational thinking style was the strongest predictor of interpersonal conflict resolution among young adults, with gender also being a significant factor.

This review discusses the interactions between immune cells and the skin epithelium and their impact on maintaining barrier function, emphasizing the potential to enhance epithelial barrier function in inflammatory diseases.

This study reports two cases of myasthenia gravis patients with thymoma who exhibited various autoimmune symptoms including alopecia, suggesting a link between thymus-related immune dysregulation and comorbid conditions.

This study suggests that basal cell carcinoma and trichoblastoma may share differentiation toward the hair follicle, as indicated by strong positivity in CK 15, follistatin, and Bmi‐1 markers.

This case report describes a 29-year-old woman with longstanding alopecia areata who experienced improvement in her scalp hair loss after 7 years of topical treatment with squaric acid dibutylester.

This study found that MDA-modified DNA may contribute to immune responses in alopecia areata patients by creating neo-epitopes, providing new insights into the condition's immunological mechanisms.

This study found that ketorolac tert-butyl ester enhances skin permeation and follicular absorption compared to ketorolac, highlighting the role of lipophilicity and solubility in prodrug design.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia showed increased c-kit expression and decreased Ki-67 expression in hair follicle cells compared to controls, suggesting a possible feedback mechanism involving stem cell factor signaling.

This study supports the idea that inflammation may play a role in the development of androgenetic alopecia, as indicated by certain immune deposits and porphyrins found more frequently in bald scalp biopsies compared to controls.

In this study, the staining properties of two types of cysts, epidermal and pilar, were found to differ, supporting their origins from the epidermis and the trichilemmal hair follicle layer, respectively.

This study found that LC-MS/MS assays provided more reliable and precise steroid measurements in human serum compared to traditional immunoassays, particularly at lower concentrations.

This study observed that estrogen receptor β and androgen receptor expressions in the skin decline with age, more noticeably under sun exposure, suggesting a role in skin aging.

This review discusses the relationship between ectodermal alterations and immunodeficiencies, particularly the roles of hyper-IgE syndrome, ectodermal dysplasia, and FOXN1 gene mutations, but it presents no new research findings.

In this pilot study, the Rapid Fire Hair Implanter Carousel facilitated graft placement in hair transplantation by reducing bleeding and operative time compared to the traditional manual method.

This review summarizes recent findings on how the dysregulated PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway contributes to immune-mediated inflammatory skin disorders and discusses the potential of natural products, synthetic compounds, and biologic agents in their treatment. However, it emphasizes the need for further research to develop effective therapies.

This study reports that keratinocytes grown under low oxygen conditions (physioxia) demonstrated reduced reactive oxygen species production and increased antioxidant enzyme activity compared to those in higher oxygen conditions, highlighting the role of oxygen in regulating skin antioxidant defenses.
