In this study, myofibroblasts in rat cutaneous fibrosis were characterized by expressions of vimentin, α-SMA, and Thy-1, and may derive from pericytes or perifollicular dermal sheath cells.

In this study, treating refractory alopecia universalis with low-dose cyclosporine A and prednisolone improved symptoms, with no recurring alopecia six months post-treatment and enhancements in immunologic function.

This study found that N-acetylcysteine effectively prevented cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia in rats, and ImuVert plus N-acetylcysteine prevented alopecia from a cyclophosphamide-cytarabine combination.

In this study, 650 nm low-level red light therapy may cause a short-term transient increase in retinal fovea perfusion density in children, with no lasting effects observed at 1 hour post-treatment.

This study found that applying topical imiquimod during mid and late telogen in mice activates hair follicle stem cells and influences immune cell infiltration, promoting hair cycle entry independently of Wnt signaling.

This study found that finasteride altered androgen receptor expression in the rat epididymis without affecting the morphology of epididymal epithelium, suggesting a change in hormonal status.

This study found that control of Demodex mite colonization in mice required skin ILC2s and IL-13, highlighting their role in maintaining HF integrity and limiting mite overgrowth.

This study demonstrated that thyroid hormone receptors play a crucial role in hair growth and skin health, as mice lacking these receptors showed impaired hair cycling and wound healing.

This case report suggests that topical imiquimod cream may be an effective alternative treatment for generalized discoid lupus erythematosus without systemic involvement.

This review discusses the significance of IL-1 family cytokines in skin inflammation and pathology, emphasizing their interactions with microbes and potential therapeutic applications, but reports no new clinical results.

This review explores the autoimmune hypothesis of alopecia areata and the possible genetic and melanogenesis-associated autoantigens, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that alopecia in captive Rhesus macaques may be linked to chronic hypersensitivity dermatitis with CD4+ cell inflammation, possibly influenced by altered housing and reduced pathogen exposure.

This study suggests that the inner root sheath plays a significant role in maintaining hair follicle homeostasis during the catagen phase's early stages.

This case report discusses a 32-year-old man's treatment for advanced androgenetic alopecia using a combination of topical minoxidil and oral finasteride, but no clinical outcomes are detailed.

This study found that 3D-printed polyamine-modified hydrogels facilitate M2 macrophage polarization and exosome secretion, enhancing skin cell compatibility and promoting wound healing and hair follicle induction in an animal model through specific signaling pathways, suggesting potential for skin disorder therapies.

In this study, researchers found that the EDMTFH protein is present in specific layers of the chicken embryo skin and feathers, suggesting its role in feather mechanics and development.

In this study, CD109 overexpression in transgenic mice led to reduced inflammation and improved collagen organization during wound healing without affecting wound closure.

In this study, researchers found that impaired cholesterol biosynthesis in hair follicles may trigger an inflammatory immune response linked to primary cicatricial alopecia, providing new insights into the disorder's pathogenesis.

In this study, researchers identified a mutation in mice that causes hair loss and immune system issues, located on chromosome 18.

In this study, researchers identified three molecules in hair that varied with age, suggesting potential markers for aging and targets for cosmetic products.

This study documented the progression of exfoliative cutaneous lupus erythematosus in German shorthaired pointers and found generally poor responses to therapies, including immunomodulatory drugs and a TNF-α inhibitor.

This study developed a technique to limit genetic recombination to regulatory T cells to investigate whether self-tolerance is maintained in non-lymphoid tissues, an area previously not well understood.

The French COVID-19 lockdown caused delays in diagnosing new melanoma cases, making them more severe.

This review examines primary and secondary immunodeficiencies, focusing on how healthcare providers can recognize and manage these conditions in children; it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of perifollicular macrophages in hair growth and suggests targeting them could be relevant for managing hair growth disorders, but reports no new results.

This study found that skin exposure to toluene diisocyanate in mice creates immune-recognition reservoirs in the skin's stratum corneum and hair follicles, potentially leading to sensitization and allergic reactions.

This study found that subcutaneous testosterone therapy improved scalp hair growth in a majority of androgen-deficient women who previously reported hair thinning and did not report hair loss as a side effect.

This study successfully established an immortalized human dermal papilla cell line that maintains characteristics of original cells without malignant transformation, potentially benefiting hair research.

This article argues that human scalp hair follicles could serve as a surrogate model for studying immune privilege in the human eye, offering a novel approach for ocular IP research.

This review describes the development of three mouse models using fluorescent proteins to visualize and study angiogenesis in tumors, particularly detailing interactions between tumor cells and the surrounding stroma.
