Systemic mastocytosis may cause a type of hair loss called cicatricial alopecia.

This study reports that while DCP had similar treatment efficacy in propylene glycol and isopropanol for alopecia areata, the formulation in isopropanol was better tolerated.

KAP genes are crucial for hair development and show both shared and unique traits in humans, chimpanzees, and baboons.

In this study, 4‐MAPC treatment reduced ventral prostate weight in rats primarily through decreased synthetic activity, with testosterone propionate increasing prostate weight and activity at pharmacologic doses.

This study found that prostasin's proteolytic activity is necessary for normal hair follicle development in mice, but not for interfollicular epidermal development.

This study observed that the addition of Cuticapil Stem Hair Serum to standard care significantly improved hair growth and reduced hair shedding in patients with androgenetic alopecia, demonstrating superior efficacy compared to standard care alone without any reported adverse events.

This study found that the wavy coat trait in Nakano cataract mice is polygenic, involving major and minor genes, and resembles human curly scalp hair associated with the PRSS53 gene alteration.

This study developed a mouse model lacking keratin 16 to replicate palmoplantar lesions, which may help uncover the molecular mechanisms driving these lesions in pachyonychia congenita and focal non-epidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma.

This review discusses primary cicatricial alopecias, detailing their classification, pathogenesis, clinical features, histopathologic findings, and treatment, without reporting new experimental results.

This article discusses the potential safety of platelet-rich plasma therapy for cicatricial alopecia but highlights that its effectiveness is still uncertain; no new empirical results are provided.

This study identified a new genotype, V281+I172N/V281L, linked to non-classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency, suggesting it should be considered in genetic panels for the condition.

This study found that the carbohydrate-based excipient β-cyclodextrin forms a stable inclusion complex with the active ingredient of Minoxicapil®, potentially enhancing its formulation for hair-loss treatment, and in vitro assays suggest improved proliferation of DPC cells, supporting its use in topical treatments.

This study identified two novel mutations in the CDH3 gene causing HJMD in a Chinese patient, expanding the genetic and phenotypic understanding of the disorder.

People with primary cicatricial alopecia have a higher risk of heart disease and stroke.

In this study, the researchers observed significant metabolic dysregulation in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, particularly involving lipid metabolism and the downregulation of AMPK-related genes.

Microneedling improves the appearance and feel of post-burn scars.

A new genetic mutation in the CAST gene may link PLACK syndrome to alopecia areata.

This case report highlights the use of microarray analysis to identify cryptic chromosomal rearrangements in a young woman with intellectual disability and multiple congenital anomalies.

This study observed that dalpiciclib is associated with fewer adverse events like diarrhea and hepatotoxicity compared to other CDK4/6 inhibitors, potentially offering better patient-perceived safety and quality of life.

In this study, two novel clusters of keratin-associated protein genes on human chromosome 11 were analyzed, suggesting their products are crucial for hair formation due to preferential expression in hair roots.

This study found that topical patidegib gel significantly shrank basal cell carcinomas in Gorlin syndrome patients without causing the systemic side effects common with oral hedgehog inhibitors.

This study reports that FDA-approved scalp cooling caps, like DigniCap and Paxman, can help 50-66% of breast cancer patients retain at least 50% of their hair during chemotherapy, with specific recommendations and limitations discussed for different patient groups.

In this study, researchers developed a new solution called CapilGen, showing it increased hair quantity by 35% and density by 25% in clinical trials without side effects, providing a potentially safe and effective treatment for baldness.

This study aims to determine if an integrated early childhood development package can reduce developmental delays among two-year-old children in public health centers in Pakistan.

This study found that loss of the Ptch2 receptor in mice leads to increased incisor growth and enhanced mesenchymal stem cell differentiation, highlighting Ptch2's role in organ regenerative potential.

This study demonstrates that the newly developed portable reflectance confocal microscope (PRCM) offers real-time, noninvasive monitoring of wound healing processes by visualizing skin morphology in both mice and humans.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma may be an effective adjuvant treatment for androgenetic alopecia, especially when combined with antiandrogenetic medications and topical minoxidil, though factors like patient age and family history could influence outcomes.

This study suggests that PDCD4 regulates keratinocyte proliferation and contact inhibition, playing a role in epidermal homeostasis and wound healing.

In this follow-up of three siblings with ATP6AP1 deficiency, the researchers observed progression to total hearing loss, hair loss, and proteinuria.
