April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that mitochondrial dysfunction in T cells led to defective hair follicle stem cell function and premature skin aging signs in a mouse model.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study observed that 6.5% of COVID-19 patients requiring inpatient or emergency care developed hair loss, compared to 4.7% of those treated as outpatients, suggesting COVID-19 severity may influence hair loss risk.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study presents a new long-term 3D skin model using cells from mature donor skin, showing significant features of skin aging, such as decreased cellular proliferation and hyaluronan content.
April 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study suggests that tissue transglutaminase (TG2) may play a role in sebum production by regulating autophagy in sebaceous glands, offering potential targets for dermatological interventions.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” In this study using a mouse model of Pemphigus vulgaris, researchers found that loss of desmoglein 3 adhesion in hair follicle stem cells triggers a regenerative program restoring stem cell function, requiring Hedgehog pathway suppression.
April 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study concluded that KLF4 is a crucial regulator of hair follicle stem cell quiescence and may work by interacting with multiple transcription factors to control related genes.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This review discusses PRP combination therapies for androgenetic alopecia, acne scarring, and cutaneous rejuvenation, and reports increased effectiveness with combination treatments but highlights the need for more research with standardized protocols.
April 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that patients with alopecia areata had significantly lower frequencies of IL-10 producing CD19+CD24hiCD38hi regulatory B cells compared to healthy volunteers, suggesting a potential role for these cells in the autoimmune response seen in the condition.
April 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that while 51.3% of severe alopecia areata patients achieved significant hair regrowth with intravenous methylprednisolone, oral Janus kinase inhibitors may benefit those who do not respond to this treatment.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study developed a new quantitative method to measure skin cell turnover in just 4 days, showing it can effectively differentiate skincare product performance and revealing that turnover slows with age but responds more to treatments as people get older.
