This review discusses major advances in understanding inherited hair diseases through genetic research and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the potential for new preventive and therapeutic tools.

This study identified upregulation of genes linked to fibroproliferative disorders, such as platelet-derived growth factor and collagen genes, in patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, suggesting potential therapeutic targets.

This review discusses the role of lysophosphatidic acid in skin physiology and pathology, highlighting its significance in processes like wound healing and hair follicle development, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses diagnostic challenges and management approaches for pediatric hair disorders, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between acquired and congenital conditions, and reports no clinical results.

This article reviews the roles of lesser-known secreted phospholipase A2 isoforms in various biological processes, such as immune suppression, metabolic regulation, epidermal hyperplasia, and male reproduction, without reporting new clinical findings.

This study found that the hair interior defect in AKR/J mice is linked to a mutation in the Soat1 gene, which disrupts SOAT1 protein expression and affects lipid metabolism critical for normal hair formation.

This paper reviews the genetic aspects of hair disorders and suggests that understanding these genes could advance treatment and diagnosis; it reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses the prognosis and treatment options for hair shaft disorders, finding no studies but suggesting some disorders improve with specific treatments like minoxidil and retinoids, while gentle hair care remains essential.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.

In this study, researchers found that synchronization between expanding epithelial cells and background mesenchymal cells in the mouse hair cycle may be maintained by inhibitory regulation, with potential mediators of this regulation identified.

This review discusses recent trends in non-surgical cosmetic dermatology procedures in the United States and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for evidence-based evaluations of safety and efficacy.

This study identified a missense mutation in the keratin 71 gene as the cause of autosomal dominant woolly hair/hypotrichosis in a Japanese family, marking the first human mutation in KRT71 linked to a hair disorder.

This study found that applying benzyl nicotinate on open hair follicles led to a significant increase in blood flow, highlighting the role of the follicular pathway in epidermal penetration.

This study examined the genetic basis for the curly hair trait in Mangalitza pigs, finding two specific genetic variants that contribute to this distinctive phenotype through autosomal dominant inheritance.

This review examines recent findings on COVID-19 pneumonia treatment using mesenchymal stem cells and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight MSCs' potential due to their immunomodulatory and tissue-regenerative properties.

This review discusses advancements in understanding hair cycle and inflammatory alopecias, proposing a standard classification and tiered treatment recommendations, but reports no clinical results.

This study found that Cornu cervi pantotrichum pharmacopuncture solution significantly promoted hair growth in mice by enhancing hair follicular cell proliferation and up-regulating FGF-7 expression.

This study reviewed the role of inflammasomes in autoimmune skin diseases, highlighting their contribution to the pathogenesis of conditions such as vitiligo, alopecia areata, and psoriasis, and suggesting that targeting inflammasome dysregulation may offer new therapeutic options.

This study found that FGF18 signaling helps protect hair follicles from radiation damage by maintaining the resting phase and supporting stem cell survival, potentially reducing radiation-induced hair loss.

This paper reviews the differential diagnoses and diagnostic tests to distinguish alopecia areata from other types of hair loss, without providing new clinical findings.

This case report describes a new family with autosomal recessive hypotrichosis simplex with woolly hair, suggesting the disorder may be underreported due to misdiagnosis.

This study found that patients with juvenile-onset systemic lupus erythematosus have a high prevalence of endocrine and metabolic comorbidities, particularly dyslipidemia and obesity-related issues, suggesting the need for routine monitoring and obesity prevention.

This study found that supplementing soybean oil significantly increased the production of the cyclosporine A derivative [(4'-OH)MeLeu]4-CsA by 55.6%, offering potential enhancements for its clinical application.

This study reported that genetic testing is crucial for accurately diagnosing hypotrichosis, especially in cases with subtle symptoms or coexisting severe atopic dermatitis, as demonstrated in a young girl with a DSG4 gene mutation.

In this report, a preterm neonate was found to have total irreversible hair loss due to congenital atrichia, confirmed by a mutation in the human hairless gene on chromosome 8p22, illustrating this rare autosomal recessive disorder.

This study investigated the effects of Wnt-3a, Wnt-5a, Wnt11, and Wnt-10b on the hair induction-ability of cultured dermal papilla cells.

This study found that dihydrotestosterone alters the balance of Wnt pathway regulators in dermal papilla cells, hindering hair follicle stem cell differentiation and contributing to hair follicle miniaturization.

This study suggests that enhancing endocannabinoid tone with an EMT-inhibitor may have anti-inflammatory effects and slightly increase sebaceous lipid production, which could be beneficial for dry skin conditions.

In this animal study, zinc deficiency in mice was linked to disrupted hair cycles and impaired hair regrowth, which were reversed by zinc supplementation.

This study explored the role of nine specific miRNAs in human hair follicles, revealing significant miRNA/mRNA correlations for miR-24, miR-31, and miR-106a and identifying target genes involved in hair biology.
