This review discusses the potential benefits of activating NRF2 for treating hair follicle disorders linked to oxidative stress and reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that CIP/KIP proteins play a significant role in regulating cell cycle arrest and differentiation in human hair follicles, supporting hair growth and formation in the anagen phase.

This study identified distinct clinical and dermatoscopic features to differentiate non-scarring patchy alopecia in SLE from alopecia areata, emphasizing the value of serological tests in diagnosis.

Finasteride can cause one-sided breast enlargement, which disappears after stopping the drug.

In this study, in vitro growth of human hair follicles did not alter hair keratin expression patterns, maintaining follicle integrity and proper keratinization similar to in vivo conditions.

This article describes cases of unusual scalp whorl patterns, including triple parietal and right temporal whorls, that were associated with normal development, and discusses theories of hair whorl development.

Skin cells can help create early hair-like structures in lab cultures.

This study found that improved outcomes in scalp surgery were achieved by utilizing knowledge of the surgical anatomy of the scalp to avoid complications like unsightly scars and distorted hair patterns.

This review examined dermatologic symptoms associated with COVID-19 in 2,560 patients, with chilblains/pernio-like lesions being the most common, suggesting these symptoms may aid in early identification of cases.

This study found that a cocktail of three proteins from embryonic skin can enable adult fibroblasts to regenerate hair follicles by altering gene expression and activating regenerative signaling pathways.

This study analyzes how commercial websites for Propecia depict male hair loss and promote medical treatment, suggesting they contribute to medicalizing a natural condition for profit.

This study found that combining ablative fractional CO₂ laser therapy with hair growth factors significantly increased hair density in men with androgenetic alopecia compared to using growth factors alone.

This article reviews recent advancements in hair transplantation techniques, particularly follicular unit transplantation, and suggests an expansion of its applications beyond male pattern hair loss, but reports no new results.

This review discusses the role of cholesterol homeostasis in hair follicle biology and its potential connections to various hair disorders, but it reports no new findings.

This review summarizes preclinical and clinical information on herbal products for hair loss treatment, highlighting their mechanisms, follicular penetration, and potential side effects, suggesting they may offer alternatives to synthetic drugs with fewer side effects.

This review discusses genome-wide association studies in dermatology, noting that variants linked to risk for 10 skin complex diseases have been identified, with potential implications for diagnostics and management; it reports no new clinical results.

This study achieved a first by successfully forming large quantities of dermal papilla spheroidal microtissues, which retained their hair induction potential, using a micropatterned culture system.

This study identified sex-specific determinants for facial wrinkles, finding that age is the strongest factor and that lifestyle influences like smoking, alcohol use, and skin color differentially affect wrinkling in men and women.

This review discusses persistent sexual and nonsexual adverse effects of the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride in younger men, including erectile dysfunction, low libido, and depression. It reports no new clinical results but emphasizes further research is needed.

This study found that artocarpin delivered via alginate/chitosan microparticles effectively suppressed the growth of hamster flank organs compared to artocarpin in solution form, without significant systemic effects.

This study generated FGF5-knockout Dorper sheep using the CRISPR/Cas9 system, resulting in significantly increased fine-wool and active hair-follicle density, and explored downstream signaling pathways for potential applications in androgen alopecia treatment.

This study reported that treating wounds with a hydrogel from acellular porcine adipose tissue and adipose-derived stem cells may significantly enhance wound healing and regeneration by promoting new adipocyte formation.

This study describes a distinct pattern of trichoscopic features associated with chemotherapy-induced alopecia and how these features evolve through different phases of chemotherapy treatment.

This study found that women with female pattern hair loss had significantly lower serum Vitamin D3 levels compared to healthy controls.

This study found that mesenchymal stem cells, especially when injected intradermally, significantly accelerated wound healing in rats compared to chitosan treatment.

Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and baldness, but may cause limited urinary improvement and sex-related side effects.

This study explored gene expression in Changthangi goats and found that higher expression of keratin-related genes and specific signaling pathways may play a role in the development of Pashmina fiber.

This retrospective analysis of male patients undergoing hair restoration surgery for androgenetic alopecia found that postoperative edema was the most common complication, occurring in 42.47% of cases.

The authors concluded that finasteride treatment inhibits hippocampal neurogenesis in mice, potentially impacting emotional behaviors and contributing to the pathophysiology of affective disorders.

This review discusses skin diseases in transgender patients receiving gender-affirming hormone therapy and procedures, highlighting unique conditions and the underdiagnosis that affects their quality of life and mental health.
