This report describes a 60-year-old female with pretibial pruritic papular dermatitis who showed significant improvement of skin lesions after one month of treatment with oral pentoxifylline. The authors highlight the unique clinical and histological features of PPPD and propose pentoxifylline as a potential therapy.

This review reports that pregnancy-specific dermatoses, including AEP, PEP, ICP, and PG, present overlapping clinical features and can significantly impact fetal outcomes, particularly ICP and PG, which are linked to preterm birth and stillbirth.

This study introduced a novel scarless healing material called pgPE, made from a porous UHMWPE nanomembrane, and found that it promotes complete skin reconstruction and hair follicle regeneration by alleviating hypoxia and modulating immune responses to foster scar-free wound healing.

This study found that a finasteride topical gel formulation using propylene glycol and Tween® 80 showed significantly enhanced permeation compared to a control formulation without these enhancers.

This study found that in Chinese women with PCOS, pretreatment with ethinylestradiol/cyproterone acetate was associated with a lower risk of gestational diabetes, pregnancy-induced hypertension, and premature delivery compared to those without pretreatment.

This study found that PRP combined with dalteparin and protamine microparticles may enhance hair growth by increasing hair thickness compared to PRP alone.

This study suggests that the transcription factor PDF2 in Arabidopsis may link lipid sensing with growth responses to phosphate starvation by acting as a sensor for lyso-PCs through its START domain.

This study found that diphencyprone is an effective and safe treatment for extensive alopecia areata, especially with long-term therapy and maintenance to reduce relapse risk.

This study found that N-acetyl-GED may protect and partially rescue human hair follicles from experimentally-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition ex vivo, suggesting its potential in treating scarring alopecias like lichen planopilaris.

This study observed that Poria cocos polysaccharides and finasteride both reduced inflammation in chronic nonbacterial prostatitis in rats, but only Poria cocos polysaccharides reversed related changes in the gut microbiota.

This policy brief reports that post-drug syndromes like Post-Finasteride Syndrome are largely overlooked in current pharmacovigilance systems, which prioritize acute drug reactions, resulting in inadequate recognition and management of persistent medication-induced conditions.

In this case study, a patient with moderate papulopustular acne showed improvement in acne scars and active lesions after three monthly treatments with autologous plasma-rich growth factors, which help regulate inflammation, inhibit bacterial growth, and restore collagen.

The researchers reported that disrupting the RPGRIP1L gene in mice impaired desmosome function, causing skin blistering, and their findings suggest that PKCβII inhibition could help treat pemphigus.

This study found that the peach gene CTG134 mediates auxin-ethylene crosstalk, affecting root hair growth and hormone-regulated processes in plants.

This study found that prostaglandin E2 pretreatment may reduce radiotherapy-induced alopecia by enhancing hair follicle self-repair through transient G1 arrest, suggesting a potential preventive treatment.

This study found that P144 (Disitertide) significantly reduced collagen deposition and improved muscle organization in a rabbit model of post-radiotherapy fibrosis, suggesting potential antifibrotic effects.

This article highlights the health risks associated with adding paraphenylenediamine to mehndi, such as contact dermatitis and asthma, and emphasizes the need for regulatory checks as its use grows among cancer patients, women with alopecia, and pregnant individuals.

Recognizing IPPP is crucial to prevent misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatments.

This study found that BBS7 is crucial for maintaining Sonic hedgehog signaling activity and periodontal ligament homeostasis, with changes in gene expression observed in occlusal hypofunctional PDL.

The project developed and tested a method using plasma rich platelets to treat hair loss.

This case report details a 21-year-old woman with dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis, presenting with generalized reticulate hyperpigmentation, diffuse noncicatricial alopecia, onychodystrophy, palmoplantar keratoderma, and poorly developed dermatoglyphics.

This study found hair regrowth in the majority of AA-affected mice and rats treated with diphencyprone, suggesting its potential utility for understanding human alopecia areata and the drug's therapeutic action.

This study observed that in primary extramammary Paget disease, carcinoma commonly spreads to significant depths along hair follicles and eccrine ducts, with a maximal depth of 3.6 mm.

PP405 may help hair growth by activating hair follicle stem cells.

This study found that photodynamic therapy achieved permanent removal of nonpigmented hair in mice after multiple sessions, unlike laser treatment, which was not effective for nonpigmented hair.

In this study, researchers conducted additional IHC staining on equine skin sections and found that collagen type III primarily labels the extracellular matrix, while anti-PDGFR-antibody staining highlights cells with long-shaped processes mainly arranged around hair follicles.
