January 2026 in “Acta Dermatovenerologica Alpina Pannonica et Adriatica” In this study, cicatricial alopecias were classified by inflammatory cell type and the researchers highlighted that primary cicatricial alopecia's exact causes remain unknown, accounting for 6% of all hair diseases despite its unclear prevalence.
November 2022 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that "early" transit amplifying cells, marked by CD271, are the first keratinocyte stem cell progenitors with distinct features, playing a significant role in early epidermal differentiation and regeneration.
May 2021 in “Journal of the Endocrine Society” This case study reports a patient with ACTH-driven cortisol secretion 14 years after adrenalectomy, suggesting possible residual adrenal tissue or extra-adrenal steroid synthesis, challenging the need for lifelong steroid replacement.

March 2012 in “Journal of dermatological science” This observational study aims to more accurately detect and localize Propionibacterium acnes in acne lesions by combining multiple microbiological visualization techniques, but it does not present new results on their causality to acne.
1 citations
,
January 2012 in “Pigment Cell & Melanoma Research” This study identified key components of melanocyte stem cell niches that maintain stem cells in a dormant state and established a culture system that potentially replicates some aspects of in vivo stem cell activity.

,
July 2018 in “Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology” This study observed that sebaceous glands were preserved in some patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, suggesting early gland loss may not be a key feature of the condition.
July 2024 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” A single medium, PRIME AIRLIFT, supports better human hair follicle formation in grafts.
July 2024 in “Indian Dermatology Online Journal” In this case report, a benign trichoadenoma was identified in a 42-year-old man as a skin-colored nodule on the cheek, with histopathology confirming the diagnosis and differentiating it from similar conditions like pilomatricoma and sebaceous cyst.

January 2013 in “Dermatology practical & conceptual” This review serves as a comprehensive guide to hair pathology with clinical correlations but does not provide new clinical results.
November 2022 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study demonstrated that hiPSC-derived hair-bearing skin organoids lacked sufficient type VII collagen at the epidermal-dermal junction, indicating a need for further maturation to model certain forms of epidermolysis bullosa effectively.
In this study, researchers observed a high degree of plasticity in somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in adult mouse skin, with both epithelial and neural components exhibiting dynamic remodeling, highlighting intricate epithelial-neural interactions in maintaining homeostasis.
