This study found that thyroid-stimulating hormone receptors are functionally expressed in various skin cells, implying potential physiological and pathological roles in skin, especially in conditions like autoimmune diseases.

This study found that CD34 is necessary for TPA-induced activation of hair follicle stem cells and tumor formation in mice, with CD34 knockout mice showing delayed and reduced tumor development compared to wild-types.

The document describes how to tell different types of non-scarring hair loss apart by looking at hair and scalp tissue under a microscope.

This consensus statement outlines a treatment algorithm for alopecia areata, discussing when to consider systemic treatment and how to assess outcomes, without providing new clinical results.

This article reviews primary cicatricial alopecias, focusing on lymphocytic forms such as chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus, according to a classification by the North American Hair Research Society, and reports no new clinical results.

This study concluded that CNGC14 is a calcium-permeable channel crucial for polarized tip growth in Arabidopsis root hairs, but other channels may also influence the observed calcium influx.

This review explores the current understanding of genetic and hormonal influences on male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss, providing guidance for clinicians but reports no new results.

In this study, a photographic scale and questionnaire revealed that extensive central scalp hair loss was observed in 5.6% of African American women, with an association to a history of tinea capitis.

This review discusses female pattern hair loss, its psychological impact, and available treatments but provides no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize early intervention for better outcomes.

In this review, the authors explored the diverse roles of fibroblasts in wound healing, suggesting that understanding their complexity could lead to better insights into wound pathologies and the development of new treatments.

This study found that anti-TNF therapy-induced alopecia exhibits distinct clinical and histopathological features and can mimic psoriatic alopecia and alopecia areata, with some patients improving with topical treatment.

This article reviews various types of primary cicatricial alopecias and emphasizes the importance of accurate diagnosis to improve management strategies, particularly detailing remaining lymphocytic forms and expanding on neutrophilic and mixed types.

This review describes the shift in treating symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia from surgery to 5alpha-reductase inhibitor drugs, which may provide symptom relief and alter BPH's progression, but reports no new clinical results.

Small white dots on the scalp seen with a dermoscope correspond to sweat ducts and vary with different hair disorders.

This review discusses the categorization of hair loss and increased hair density disorders related to systemic diseases and reports no clinical results, emphasizing the potential diagnostic value of history, physical examination, and histopathologic data.

Hair follicles grow hair and release it through the skin.

This study found that certain C57BL/6 mouse substrains have a genetic vulnerability to skin lesions resembling central centrifugal cicatrical alopecia in humans, potentially worsened by high vitamin A levels.

Pax9 is crucial for proper tongue surface development and preventing skin-like changes.

This article describes two cases where essential alopecia was the initial sign of syphilitic infection, examining the clinical and histopathologic features observed.

This study suggests that polyamines regulate CK2 enzyme activity and its subcellular distribution, as demonstrated in mouse models and cell cultures with elevated levels of ornithine decarboxylase.

This study demonstrated that cultured human dermal papilla cells can induce full hair follicle formation when combined with neonatal foreskin keratinocytes in a grafted dermal-epidermal construct on mice.

This study found that young males with stage III or higher androgenetic alopecia had higher insulin resistance and cardiovascular-related features, suggesting the need for metabolic assessment in this population.

This review discusses genetic and epigenetic mechanisms that may contribute to aging and presents models suggesting that chromosomal changes could play a key role in the aging process; it reports no new experimental findings.

This case report describes a patient who developed alopecia after 18 weeks of treatment with dupilumab for atopic dermatitis.

This study found that calmodulin 7 (CaM7) inhibits the calcium channel CNGC14 in root hairs, affecting their polar growth by controlling calcium signaling.

This study developed and evaluated a photographic scale to assess CCCA pattern and severity in African American women, finding it reproducible when used by investigators and participants.

This study identified the presence of apoptotic or necrotic keratinocytes and hair shaft dystrophy as potential markers of hair loss in patients with HIV-1 infection.

This study observed that hair breakage may indicate early central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American women, suggesting that it should be considered in their differential diagnosis.

This article presents two cases of tinea capitis in postpubertal individuals highlighting the importance of early treatment to prevent scarring and permanent hair loss; it reports no new clinical results.

This review presents standardized methods for assessing and tracking hair loss in alopecia areata but reports no clinical results, with the authors noting time limitations in clinical practice.
