This study used fibre optic confocal imaging to visualize subsurface structures in live mouse skin, revealing cellular details and blood vessel networks that dynamic events could be studied in vivo.

This study demonstrated that plucked human hair follicles cultured in a collagen gel matrix developed spike-like structures, suggesting a useful method to study outer root sheath cell growth and differentiation in vitro.

This article discusses the potential role of a local skin POMC system in the murine hair cycle and cutaneous stress responses, with no new results presented.

The error in figures didn't affect the study's results or conclusions.

This study identified the presence of recognizable organelles, such as lysosomes and mitochondria, in both the keratinized fiber and the hardened inner root sheath of the Romney wool follicle.

This study found that lipid extraction increased water diffusion in wool and hair fibers; the effect was more pronounced in hair, indicating lipids are crucial for water permeability.

This study identified a unique concentric double-layered structure in both Japanese and Caucasian SHINAYAKA hair, associated with improved flexibility and elasticity, and developed a succinic acid treatment to enhance these properties.

A 70-year-old man with skin cancer on both sides of his forehead was treated with surgery and cryotherapy, highlighting the need for early detection and prevention.

This study found that skin organoids derived from iPSCs with an HS-associated NCSTN mutation showed defects in hair follicle stem cell differentiation and increased expression of inflammatory proteins related to hidradenitis suppurativa.

This study explored dermatoscopic and histopathologic findings of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia beyond the vertex scalp, suggesting that dermatoscopy might serve as a less invasive diagnostic tool for subclinical disease.

This case report describes the first recorded instance of congenital triangular alopecia in the mid-frontal scalp region, challenging the assumption that it is restricted to the frontotemporal area.

This study found that distinct isoenzymes of 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase are expressed in human adrenals and gonads compared to the placenta and skin.

In this case report, a rare pilar cyst was found in the left temporal region of a 75-year-old male, highlighting the potential for such cysts to mimic temporal space infections and complicate treatment plans.

This study found that onychomatricoma can fully mimic the nail unit and differentiate toward the nail bed and isthmus, distinguishing it from other pilar tumors.

In this study, optical coherence tomography detected hair follicles at the dermoepidermal junction not visible on the scalp surface in alopecia areata patients, suggesting OCT may help monitor treatment response.

The study found that women with hyperandrogenic PCOS have higher levels of AKT1 and AKT2 proteins in their cells, which may lead to cell dysfunction.

This study found that human scalp hair follicles can internally operate a Cori cycle, synthesize glycogen in the presence of lactate, and modulate growth through glycogen phosphorylase activity.

This article reviews congenital adrenal hyperplasia, a group of rare genetic disorders affecting steroid synthesis, and highlights the need for specific therapy and ongoing monitoring, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that CTCF is crucial for proper skin and hair follicle development in mice, affecting keratinocyte differentiation and gene expression in keratin loci.

This article reviews the case of a 2-year-old boy with rhombencephalosynapsis and considers its potential links to Gomez–López-Hernández syndrome, suggesting further research into its genetic causes; no new clinical results are reported.

This anatomical study on Eclipta alba concluded that unique secretory structures in stems and leaves may serve as identifying features of the plant and the Asteraceae family.

This study found that cortisol increases mac25/IGFBP-rP1 expression in osteoblast-enriched cells from fetal rat calvariae, indicating transcriptional regulation which may influence IGF and insulin effects in bone.

In vitro, this study suggests that CRH may act as an autocrine hormone in human sebocytes, influencing lipid synthesis and potentially impacting skin disorders related to alterations in sebaceous lipid formation.

This study suggests that hair cortisol measurement could serve as an alternative diagnostic method for Cushing’s disease, showing acceptable concordance with urinary free cortisol despite differing evaluated periods.

This source reports that clascoterone cream has been approved in the U.S. for treating acne vulgaris in patients aged 12 and older, suggesting it works by competing with dihydrotestosterone at androgen receptors to mitigate acne's effects.

In this study, the researchers identified LHX2 as a specific marker for hair follicle placodes, differentiating them from eccrine sweat gland placodes through double immunofluorescence staining.

This case study reports a rare instance of a virilizing androgen-only secreting adrenal cortical adenoma in a 13-year-old, with symptom resolution after surgical removal.

This study found that cells from the upper hair follicle exhibited more active growth compared to other segments in vitro, suggesting their potential as a source of hair follicle stem cells.

This study examines the structure of the "sinuskissen" in cat hair follicles, revealing it as a loose connective tissue susceptible to changes in aqueous flow, and describes its variable three-dimensional shapes.
