This study found that reducing testosterone levels in male mice accelerates wound healing and decreases inflammation, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for improving wound repair in elderly males.

In this study, distinct immune and cellular profiles were observed in adults with atopic dermatitis associated with high levels of Staphylococcus aureus, including increased proinflammatory T cells and markers of skin barrier impairment, pointing to potential therapeutic targets for managing these interactions.

This study concluded that the CXCL12–CXCR4 signaling pathway significantly contributes to hair loss in androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata by promoting inflammation and fibrosis, whereas inhibiting this pathway can restore hair growth and follicle health.

This study demonstrated that in mice, the absence of Jagged-1 expression in skin-resident regulatory T cells significantly delays wound healing by reducing the accumulation of neutrophils, highlighting the role of Jagged-1 in coordinating immune cell recruitment during injury.

In this study, researchers found that impaired cholesterol biosynthesis in hair follicles may trigger an inflammatory immune response linked to primary cicatricial alopecia, providing new insights into the disorder's pathogenesis.

This study found that silk fibroin gel induced more pro-regenerative macrophages and hair follicle stem cells, leading to almost scarless skin regeneration compared to alginate gel.

This study found that immune cells, including T cells and macrophages, significantly influence stem cell behavior and tissue regeneration by secreting cytokines and inflammatory factors in mice.

In this study, researchers investigated the immunohistopathological characteristics of the skin in individuals during the acute phase of chikungunya infection, revealing CHIKV antigens and inflammatory infiltrates in various skin components and highlighting the role of cytokines/chemokines in the disease's skin manifestations.

This study demonstrated that the immunomodulatory drug FTY720 may enhance the survival of allogeneic fat grafts in mice by reducing immune rejection and improving neovascularization.

The study suggests that immune privilege collapse in bulge cells and the involvement of pro-inflammatory cytokine interferon-γ contribute to hair follicle stem cell loss in lichen planopilaris.

Alopecia totalis/universalis involves more intense immune activity and inflammation than patchy alopecia areata.

In this study, researchers developed iron-curcumin-coordinated nanoparticles to enhance curcumin's bioavailability and therapeutic effects, finding that these nanoparticles accelerate wound healing in diabetic mice by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress more effectively than free curcumin.

This study found that tumor immunotherapy, while effective against solid tumors, can disrupt the immune balance in hair follicles, causing follicular toxicity and alopecia, highlighting the need for targeted interventions to manage these adverse effects.

This study found that blocking the chemokine CXCL12 in a testosterone-induced mouse model of androgenetic alopecia restored hair regeneration and reduced fibrosis and immune alterations.

This review highlights the crucial role of the immune system in hair follicle regulation and its potential link to autoimmune disorders like alopecia areata. It suggests that understanding immune-mediated hair regeneration could lead to new treatments for this condition.

This study found that miR-486 and miR-451 levels were reduced in alopecia areata-affected skin, and delivering their mimics to mice mitigated symptoms by reducing inflammation and immune activity.

In this study, mouse models with EGFR deficiency showed that disrupted hair follicle cycling leads to increased mast cell numbers and inflammation, suggesting EGFR's role in managing hair cycle transitions and preventing folliculitis.

This study found that impairments in cholesterol biosynthesis in hair follicles of primary cicatricial alopecia patients trigger an inflammatory immune response, potentially linking sterols to inflammation in the disease's pathogenesis.

This thesis found that inhibiting IL-17 and IL-23 improved chronic wound healing in obese, diabetic mice by promoting a pro-healing macrophage phenotype, while ST2 signaling was also necessary for effective wound healing.

In this study of mouse models, researchers found that glutaminolysis is crucial for macrophages to switch from a pro-inflammatory to a pro-resolving state, aiding tissue repair by preventing prolonged inflammation and influencing gene expression.

This study developed an all-natural hydrogel that promotes diabetic wound healing by converting pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages to anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages in a simple and biosafe manner.

This study suggests that DcR3 can reprogram macrophages towards a reparative state, enhancing wound healing and hair follicle regeneration, making it a potential target for treating chronic wounds and alopecia.

This study found that women with PCOS had significantly higher levels of the pro-inflammatory chemokine MIP-1α compared to controls, suggesting an association with low-grade chronic inflammation, though the increase in MIP-1β levels did not reach statistical significance.

This review discusses the role of macrophages in chronic wound healing and suggests that understanding their regulation can inform therapeutic approaches, but it reports no new results.

Certain substances can help skin cells become anti-inflammatory, aiding in tissue repair.

The researchers reported that sulfated chitosan-containing sponges can modulate macrophage activity in diabetic wounds, reducing inflammation and promoting angiogenesis and tissue regeneration, which may enhance wound healing outcomes.

This animal study found that berberine may alleviate benign prostatic hyperplasia by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress through inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway.

This study found that FGF-9 treatment in diabetic mice improved heart function after myocardial infarction by decreasing monocyte infiltration and promoting anti-inflammatory macrophage differentiation.
