This study found that patients with MPA had significantly lower zinc and manganese levels and higher copper levels in their hair compared to hair-healthy men.

In this study, researchers used atomic force microscopy to capture and analyze morphological changes in the surface of healthy hair, identifying features such as pitting and rod-shaped macro-fibrillar elements, which could inform future research on hair conditions and care.

This study found that full-length Agouti protein modulates melanocortin receptor signaling through a dual mechanism involving competitive antagonism and receptor down-regulation, whereas the carboxyl-terminal fragment acts solely as a competitive antagonist.

This study found that mycophenolate mofetil was well tolerated and effective as a second-line treatment for autoimmune hepatitis in patients who were intolerant to azathioprine.

In this study, researchers found that stress likely triggers symmetrical alopecia in Formosan macaques in Mt. Longevity, Taiwan, with higher stress hormone levels associated with the condition.

This article reviews cell proteomic footprinting technology and its application in improving the authentication and quality control of cell-based immunotherapeutics, without providing new clinical results.

In this study, researchers found that CCCA in women of African descent is associated with molecular changes, including dysregulation of fatty acid metabolism and fibrosis pathways, suggesting potential targets for new treatments.

This study suggests a potential genetic component in CFA among Ridgeback dogs, but MLPH genotyping did not identify the MLPH gene as a contributing factor.

This report describes a woman with microcystic adnexal carcinoma who underwent successful excisional surgery and hair transplantation, which may be beneficial for treating surgical scars.

This review outlines chlormadinone acetate's contraceptive and non-contraceptive applications but reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing its potential in treating dysmenorrhea and androgen-related conditions.

This study found that females exposed to high cumulative doses of cyproterone acetate had a 6–20 fold increased risk of developing meningiomas compared to those on lower doses.

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.

Mast cells may significantly contribute to central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.

In this study, reflectance confocal microscopy was shown to provide early insights into sub-clinical treatment progress in patients with androgenetic alopecia, potentially offering advantages over global photography.

This study indicates that MAGE-11 modulates androgen receptor transcriptional activity through F-box interactions, independent of the activation function 2 pathway, revealing a novel mechanism for androgen receptor regulation.

This study demonstrated that switching aE-catenin to aT-catenin in murine skin substantially rescued hyperproliferative and pre-cancerous conditions, but led to partial baldness, indicating potential functional discrepancies.

This article discusses the use of atomic force microscopy for examining human hair surfaces in dermatology, cosmetics, and forensic science, but presents no new research findings.

This study found that patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia preferred shared decision-making with their doctors regarding treatment management.

This study developed and validated a micellar electrokinetic chromatography method to determine finasteride stability, finding that the drug degrades under acidic, basic, and oxidative stress conditions.

In this study, most surveyed physicians were aware of the meningioma risk linked to cyproterone acetate monotherapy, but many did not recall receiving updated safety communications.

This study identified mefloquine as a potent inducer of lethal ER stress that effectively eliminated vemurafenib-resistant and sensitive melanoma cells, suggesting its potential for repurposing as a melanoma treatment.

This review discusses the emerging role of AMT in fibrosis and suggests that targeting AMT could offer a novel approach to treatment; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that dermal injection of M-CSF stimulated CD11b + myeloid cells can induce alopecia areata in mice by potentially activating B lymphocytes, offering insight into the disease's pathogenesis.

This study found that α-MSH may suppress IFN-γ-driven upregulation of ICAM-1 in human dermal fibroblasts, suggesting potential roles for melanocortins in inflammatory skin disorders beyond collagen synthesis effects.

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 article reports a case of macular amyloidosis associated with myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia, a combination not previously documented.

Hair transplantation can improve scars after removing a rare skin cancer.

This study found that Merkel cell carcinoma recurrence risk peaks within the first two years after diagnosis and varies significantly by stage, with immune suppression, age, and male sex also influencing risk.

This study demonstrated that CEP may effectively treat pulmonary fibrosis by inhibiting fibroblast activation through regulating macrophage M2 polarization and decreasing fibrosis-associated factors, suggesting a new avenue for future research in this area.

This study reports a strong association between the MICA locus, specifically the MICA∗3-DR∗6-DQ6 haplotype, and Alopecia Areata in families.
