This review discusses the role of defensin peptides in stem cell activation for potential skin rejuvenation therapies and reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the need for further studies.

This case study describes the successful use of recombinant feline interferon-omega in managing feline chronic gingivostomatitis syndrome in cats with type II diabetes, where long-acting corticosteroids are contraindicated.

This review discusses the current understanding of propranolol's use in treating infantile hemangiomas, covering its indications, effectiveness, side effects, and ongoing clinical trials, without presenting new clinical results.

This study found that oral cyclosporine was more effective and had fewer side effects than betamethasone minipulse therapy for treating alopecia areata.

This study highlights that while there are no FDA- or ANVISA-approved treatments for children with alopecia areata, JAK inhibitors are emerging as a promising therapeutic option for this population.

This study observed that zinc deficiency in humans and mice was associated with diminished allergic contact dermatitis but increased severity and duration of irritant contact dermatitis.

This study demonstrated that vitamin B12 may promote hair growth in vitro by modulating intracellular signaling in the wnt-pathway, suggesting potential benefits for micrograft transplantation.

Psoriasis treatment may affect body hair growth, with a complex relationship between skin and hair growth mechanisms.

This study reviewed evidence suggesting that systemic corticosteroids, particularly in pulse regimens like dexamethasone and betamethasone oral mini-pulse, effectively slow vitiligo progression and support repigmentation, while offering a favorable safety profile compared to continuous therapy.

This review discusses the use of nutraceuticals in dermatology for preventing and reversing signs of skin aging, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that stabilized beta-catenin is crucial for activating stem cell transition from quiescence to proliferation in hair follicles by influencing gene expression within the stem cell niche.

This study found that Wnt signaling in the hair follicle is crucial for coordinating the behavior of epithelial and melanocyte stem cells, which drives hair regeneration and melanocyte differentiation in mice.

This study suggests that botanical 5AR inhibitors like Serenoa repens and β-sitosterol may improve symptoms of androgenetic alopecia, with 60% of treated subjects showing improvement compared to placebo.

This review discusses possible medication-induced hair loss and the need to exclude other confounding factors like stress and illness; it reports no new clinical findings and emphasizes careful assessment before attributing hair loss to medications.

In this study, the researchers found that vitamin D and calcium signaling in keratinocytes are essential for normal skin regeneration after wounding, with deficiencies significantly delaying wound closure and re-epithelialization in mice.

This study suggests that miRNAs, particularly miR-195-5p, may regulate the loss of hair follicle inductivity in cultured dermal papilla cells by suppressing the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This review explores theories on the evolution of hair from synapsid scales and glands, proposing mechanisms supported by comparative studies, but reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses how vitamin D and calcium signaling are essential for wound healing by activating epidermal and hair follicle stem cells, noting that deficiencies may lead to delayed or chronic wounds.

This study found that mutations in the Sgk3 gene cause defective hair follicle development and altered hair cycling in mice, with variable phenotypic outcomes depending on different dysfunction patterns of the SGK3 protein.

The study found that Sh-Polypeptide 9, a biomimetic peptide, enhances endothelial tubulogenesis and VEGF production more effectively than minoxidil, particularly at low concentrations, suggesting potential for hair follicle vascularization.

This study observed that gerbils exhibit a different wound healing mechanism compared to mice, with lower TGF-B1 expression and distinct tissue responses, yet achieve similar healing outcomes.

This study demonstrated that RNA interference targeting mutant keratin genes can effectively correct hair shaft structural defects in a mouse model by reducing mutant gene expression.

This study found that the circular RNA circCOL1A1 influences the formation of superior-quality brush hair in white goats by regulating hair follicle stem cell behavior and interacting with the miR-149-5p/CMTM3/AR axis.

This review discusses the mechanisms of androgenic alopecia and reports no new results; the development of a mouse model for further study is described.

This review summarizes current evidence on how beta-human papillomavirus and Merkel cell polyomavirus may contribute to the development of nonmelanoma and Merkel cell skin carcinomas, respectively, but it reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, finasteride pretreatment led to EEG changes in rats that suggest a mild reduction in thioacetamide-induced hepatic encephalopathy.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had significantly higher serum levels of IL-1α compared to healthy controls, with no significant difference observed in IL-1β levels.

This review highlights that disturbances in neuroimmune communication, particularly between sympathetic nerves and macrophages, may contribute to autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and type 1 diabetes, and suggests potential therapeutic avenues by restoring this communication in preclinical and early clinical studies.

In this study, the reconstructed skin epidermal model derived from hair follicles showed gene expression and enzyme functionality consistent with native human skin, suggesting its viability for studying skin metabolism and potential toxicity of dermo-cosmetic ingredients.

This study found that gels containing glycyrrhizic acid and aqueous Glycyrrhiza glabra extract significantly reduced underarm hair growth in terms of area, thickness, length, and number compared to their gel bases.
