This study found that micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) was highly effective for analyzing the cross-sectional geometry of hair fibres, including the medulla in highly curled hair, but less effective than scanning electron microscopy for surface details.

This study found that HtrA2 inactivation in mnd2 mice is associated with delayed hair cycle phases and growth retardation of adipocytes, suggesting HtrA2's role in regulating adipogenesis-related hair growth.

This study found that intravenous transplantation of human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells improved trabecular bone mass in osteoporotic mice by enhancing bone formation and reducing bone resorption.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy with argon sputter etching visualizes hair lipids at the cell membrane complex as distinctive convex structures, shedding light on their role and localization in human hair.

This study found that mitotane causes specific changes in cortisol metabolism, including increased excretion of certain metabolites, which may influence cortisol bioavailability without hindering early detection of adrenocortical carcinoma recurrence.

This study found that the development of Merkel cell carcinoma from hair follicles in mice can be driven by in vivo reprogramming with ATOH1 and relies on p53 loss for progression.

This review discusses the development and potential therapeutic applications of steroid sulfatase inhibitors for hormone-dependent disorders and cognitive dysfunction, reporting no new clinical results.

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.

Alpha-MSH affects mitochondrial function, and MC1R mutations may increase skin aging.

This phase 1 study reported that after administering supratherapeutic doses of cortexolone 17α‐propionate, a topical antiandrogen intended for hair loss treatment, there was no effect on the QTc interval, indicating no measurable cardiac safety concerns in the concentration range tested.

This study introduces a new method to isolate stem cells from the hair follicle outer root sheath of equine skin, demonstrating that these cells, named eMSCORS, proliferate efficiently and can differentiate similarly to adipose tissue-derived MSCs, offering a promising alternative for equine veterinary applications.

This study suggests that mesenchymal stem cell-induced dermal papilla-like tissues can generate new hair follicles in mice, indicating potential for developing hair cell therapy using stem cells.

This study found that 15 clinical trials have been registered to investigate the use of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes for treating skin and subcutaneous tissue diseases, particularly alopecia, with a growing global interest and most trials conducted in the United States and China.

This study reviews various factors affecting mesenchymal stem cell transplantation efficacy, including platelet concentrate composition, donor characteristics, and environmental influences, and examines strategies for optimizing outcomes through preconditioning and combined therapies in regenerative medicine.

This review indicates that mesenchymal stem cell therapy may offer clinical improvements for immune-mediated inflammatory skin diseases, showing promise particularly for those unresponsive to traditional treatments, but emphasizes the need for larger, controlled trials to confirm these results.

This study found that combining CelluTome system and RCM is a safe and effective protocol for evaluating wound healing responses in patients with epidermolysis bullosa.

This study investigated optimizing the differentiation process of UC-MSCs into dermal papilla-like tissues for potential hair follicle therapy and highlighted the potential to reduce associated costs by evaluating cell density and growth factors.

In this study, human dermal fibroblasts were identified as natural host cells that support productive Merkel cell polyomavirus infection, and the MEK antagonist trametinib was introduced as an effective inhibitor to control the virus.

This paper discusses the ongoing debate around megasession hair restoration surgery techniques and notes the standard practice of performing procedures with approximately 600 grafts, but it reports no specific clinical outcomes.

This study found that combining Ganoderma lucidum extract with microneedle therapy promoted hair growth in a mouse model of alopecia more effectively than microneedle therapy alone.

This study characterized human Wharton's Jelly Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hWJ-MSCs) isolated from umbilical cords using explant and enzymatic methods, finding both methods yielded high-purity cells capable of differentiating into adipocyte, chondrocyte, and osteocyte lineages, showing promise for regenerative medicine applications.

This review explores how preconditioning mesenchymal stromal cells can impact their secretome's therapeutic potential in regenerative medicine, emphasizing immunomodulatory and regenerative functions, but provides no new clinical results.

In this case report, a 21-year-old woman diagnosed with ACTH-independent Cushing syndrome showed improvement in symptoms, including a more regular menstrual cycle and lower hirsutism, after starting treatment with ketoconazole, although she developed hypertension.

This study found that human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells demonstrated enhanced wound healing capabilities compared to umbilical cord-derived stem cells in laboratory and animal models.

This study found that the scalp coverage scoring (SCS) method is a non-invasive and reproducible technique that effectively measures hair growth and loss dynamics in male subjects with androgenetic alopecia.

Scalp micropigmentation is a process where tiny dots of pigment are tattooed onto the scalp to create the appearance of a shaved head or fuller hair.

In this study, researchers found that human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells exhibit significant phagocytic ability against various particles and pathogens, which might enhance strategies for addressing specific local and systemic infections due to their regenerative properties.

In this review, the authors highlight the crucial role of mesenchymal stem cells in dermatologic therapies, noting their potential to enhance skin structure and appearance through regenerative mechanisms like inflammation induction, angiogenesis, and recruitment of tissue-specific progenitors.

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

Scalp cooling therapy is costly and often not covered by insurance, limiting access for low-income patients.
