This study suggests that increased putrescine levels may disrupt normal hair follicle development in transgenic mice, leading to hair loss and altered skin structure, yet these mice appear more resistant to skin tumorigenesis.

This study found that ECMs from papillary and dermal papilla fibroblasts support normal basement membrane formation, suggesting potential improvements for therapeutic biomaterials in skin engineering.

The study concluded that fatty acid transport protein 4 in epidermal keratinocytes is crucial for maintaining normal skin structure, as its deficiency led to hyperkeratosis and epidermal barrier disruption in mice.

This article discusses nutritional contributions to hair health and highlights the need for identifying risk factors for deficiencies but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that Stat3 removal in keratinocytes of mice impairs healing and disrupts the normal hair cycle, leading to skin ulcers and hair loss as they age.

This report describes two Saudi brothers with dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis who exhibited normal hair shafts despite their condition.

In this study, DNA cross-linking agents used in cancer therapy were found to cause unintended hyperplasia and fate mis-specification in normal epithelial stem cells through inflammasome activation in dermal fibroblasts.

This study found that Raman spectroscopy has potential for detecting biophysical differences in basal cell carcinoma compared to normal skin structures, supporting its future use in Mohs surgery.

This study found that vitamin D receptor presence is vital for normal hair growth in mice, as shown by vitamin D receptor-null mice developing alopecia, while transgenic expression of human vitamin D receptor in these mice restored normal hair growth.

This review discusses the potential of the hair follicle dermis to direct hair development and explores concepts related to hair growth and androgenetic alopecia, without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that activating β-catenin signaling in embryonic epidermis promoted hair follicle characteristics at the expense of normal epidermal differentiation, leading to early pigmentation and innervation.

This study found that the loss of a functional hr gene in mice leads to premature and abnormal hair follicle regression, disrupting normal hair cycling and architecture.

This study found that dermal fibroblast cultures, especially those with higher alpha-smooth muscle actin expression, can be used to produce skin-derived precursor cells, unlike human hair follicle dermal papilla cultures.

This study found that the spiny mouse can regenerate tissues such as skeletal muscle, dermis, and hair without scarring after full thickness thermal burns, unlike the lab mouse.

This study demonstrated that implanting μm-scale full-thickness columns of human skin tissue into immunodeficient mice restored key features of normal human skin, suggesting potential for human wound repair with minimal donor site morbidity.

This study reported that patients with alopecia areata have reduced expression of the melanocortin receptor MC2R in their scalp tissues compared to normal scalp, indicating potential involvement in the condition's pathophysiology.

This study found that 5α–reductase activity is higher in infrainfundibular keratinocytes compared to interfollicular epidermal keratinocytes, suggesting a potential role in acne-related follicular changes.

This study found that the expression of LRIG1 in Merkel cell carcinoma tumors was associated with improved overall and cancer-specific survival.

Hair transplant complications were likely due to deep graft placement and rough handling.

In this study, researchers achieved complete reepithelialization and hair growth on a burn-injured scalp using a tissue-engineered dermal template with early micrograft hair follicle implantation.

This study provides evidence that human skin contains genes and enzymes necessary for producing serotonin and melatonin.

This study found that in the absence of hair follicles, cutaneous wounds in mice showed delayed reepithelialization but eventually achieved normal wound closure after expanding the activated epidermis region.

This study found that mice lacking the vitamin D receptor (VDR) developed skin tumors more rapidly than those with normal VDR activity, regardless of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) presence.

This review discusses the diverse roles and characteristics of epidermal and dermal stem cells in skin regeneration and aging, highlighting their potential applications in regenerative medicine and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, fetal rat wounds at gestational age 16 days healed without scar formation and resembled normal skin architecture, unlike those at 18 days which resulted in scarring and lack of hair follicles.

This review discusses the use of dermal regeneration templates for treating burn injuries and other wounds, highlighting their effectiveness in reducing scars and aiding in regenerative processes, but reports no new clinical results.

The study found that bioengineered hair follicles work when using cells from the same species but have issues when combining human and mouse cells.

This abstract discusses the uncertain role of the vascular system in hair loss and highlights the unexplained aspects of various types of alopecias; it reports no new research findings.

This review discusses the physicochemical properties, binding mechanisms, and factors affecting corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) functions, but reports no new clinical results.

CTA is often mistaken for AA but doesn't respond to steroids and may require hair transplantation.
