In Italian patients with lupus, the most common skin issue was chronic cutaneous lupus, especially discoid lesions, and nonspecific skin problems occurred in about a third of those with systemic lupus, mainly during active disease.

Forehead modification greatly increases the perception of femininity and is a safe procedure.

Tempol is safe and may prevent hair loss from brain radiotherapy.

Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.

Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.

Over one-third of women experience hair loss, with female-pattern hair loss being most common, and treatments include minoxidil and possibly hair transplantation.

Gene therapy with the Math1 gene helped regenerate balance-related cells and improve balance in mice.

Mice hair growth patterns get more complex with age and can change with events like pregnancy or injury.

The conclusion is that FFA and LPP have similar scalp biopsy features, making them hard to distinguish histologically, and FFA may be a specific kind of scarring hair loss.

Cepharanthine is a well-tolerated drug with multiple medical uses, including anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties.

Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.

New targets for making and using brain-synthesized steroids could lead to better treatments for brain disorders and alcoholism.

Hair follicles produce and respond to melatonin, affecting hair growth and sensitivity to estrogen.

Higher doses of cranial irradiation are linked to permanent hair loss.

The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.

Exposure to finasteride in the womb caused lasting reproductive issues in male rats.

Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair regrowth, while treatments for alopecia areata have varying success and continuous treatment is necessary.

The article concludes that the wool follicle is a valuable model for studying tissue interactions and has potential for genetic improvements in wool production.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a cheap and easy treatment for hair loss, but not suitable for everyone. It also helps in healing ulcers, rejuvenating skin, and improving hair transplants.

Some drugs can cause skin, nail, and hair problems, which are important for healthcare professionals to recognize and report.

Hair, teeth, and mammary glands develop similarly at first but use different genes later.

Too much Smad7 can cause serious changes in skin tissues, including problems with hair growth, thymus shrinkage, and eye development issues.

Understanding the mouse hair cycle is crucial for cancer research.

Giving a special protein to dogs with a certain genetic disease improved their symptoms but didn't help with hair growth.

Skin-derived precursors in hair follicles come from different origins but function similarly.

Minoxidil helps hair growth in 63.6% of alopecia patients, with 27.3% having excellent results.

A genetic region near the PAX1 gene is linked to a higher risk of scoliosis in females.

The treatment helped reduce symptoms and stabilize the hairline in most patients with Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, but hair regrowth was limited.

COVID-19 can cause skin issues like rashes and "COVID toes," and people with skin conditions should adjust their treatments if they get the virus.

Scientists turned mouse stem cells into skin cells that can grow into skin layers and structures.
