This report reviews current advances in hair follicle regeneration for tissue-engineered skin grafts and highlights the feasibility and challenges of creating human hair follicles in this setting, suggesting key bioengineering requirements.

This study found that Par3 plays a crucial role in maintaining epidermal homeostasis by regulating Rho/actomyosin contractility and ensuring mitotic accuracy, with potential implications for other self-renewing epithelia.

This review discusses the clinical and molecular history of 5-alpha reductase deficiency, highlighting its role in male sexual differentiation and potential therapeutic applications, but reports no new research outcomes.

In this case report, a male patient's semen parameters improved after discontinuing a 1-mg dose of finasteride, suggesting that stopping the medication may benefit infertile men with previous sperm production issues.

This review discusses acquired hypertrichosis lanuginosa, a rare disorder often linked to internal malignancy, and reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight proposed pathogenic mechanisms for lanugo hair overgrowth.

This article reviews the historical development of understanding the hair growth cycle, particularly anagen, catagen, and telogen phases, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study concluded that hair follicle hyperplasia found in pseudolymphomatous folliculitis can also occur in genuine cutaneous lymphomas, potentially as a coincidental result of underlying pathological processes.

This case report and review discuss hair-thread tourniquet syndrome in a 14-year-old autistic child, highlighting its rarity and the misconception of it being linked to abuse or socio-cultural practices.

This study suggests that ROXYs and reactive oxygen species are likely involved in the signaling pathways plants use to respond to nitrate deprivation.

This review highlights essential preoperative assessments for ophthalmologists and non-oculo-facial surgeons performing upper facial rejuvenation, emphasizing the importance of understanding ocular and periocular anatomy to achieve both cosmetic and functional improvements.

This study found that specific DNA variants in the TCHH, WNT10A, and FRAS1 genes are associated with predicting straight hair in Europeans, showing high sensitivity but low specificity, especially using a neural networks approach.

This research suggests that targeting the HIF-1α pathway via PHD inhibitors may enable regeneration similar to amphibians in mammals, potentially fast-tracking regenerative therapies from mice to humans.

This article discusses various causes of hyperandrogenism in women and highlights diagnostic considerations for conditions such as PCOS, NCCAH, Cushing's disease, and androgen-secreting tumors, without reporting new clinical results.

This review discusses adverse effects of cosmetic products and procedures on the ocular surface, including mild discomfort to severe vision-threatening conditions, and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, most hair disorders among HIV-1 positive patients were associated with low helper T cell counts, with papulosquamous conditions like seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis being the most common.

This study found that nobiletin-loaded vesicles effectively restored skin condition in a mouse model of skin cancer, suggesting they are a promising treatment delivery system.

This study suggests that neurosteroids and compounds acting on GABA(A) receptors, like THIP, may modulate ethanol intake by influencing drinking patterns.

This review discusses the interplay between epilepsy and reproductive endocrine disorders, examining the factors involved and emphasizing the importance of monitoring but reports no new research findings.

This study examined developing hair cortex with electron microscopy and found that keratin fibrils form between specific regions in hair follicles and aggregate into twisted cables.

This study found that local refinement of hair follicles into higher order patterns can occur without the core planar cell polarity system, but global alignment with body axes requires its function throughout development and regeneration.

This study reports that microencapsulation of therapeutic cells with contrast agents enables visualization across multiple imaging modalities, potentially improving cellular immunoprotection and tracking after transplantation.

This study found that minoxidil penetration through the skin increased with higher ethanol content and occlusion, with the highest penetration observed at 90% ethanol.

This review compiles studies on the antidiabetic potential of plants from the Middle East, particularly from the Asteraceae and Lamiaceae families, but reports no clinical results.

This study found that pharmacological inhibition of sex steroid synthesis impacts pathogenic processes in traumatic brain injury in a sex-specific manner, with distinct effects of letrozole and finasteride on molecular and neurological outcomes.

This workshop review discusses the dual role of cellular senescence in cancer, highlighting both its anticancer effects and pro-tumorigenic potential, while reporting no new research results.

This article reviews the diagnosis and management of inherited epidermolysis bullosa and reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes the importance of clinical and histopathological evaluation.

This case report describes a rare instance of functioning adrenocortical oncocytoma in a 14-year-old girl with virilization and reviews related literature.

This review reports that 100 mg/day spironolactone improved hair growth more than placebo and was more effective in reducing hair growth than finasteride and low-dose cyproterone acetate, but its effectiveness for acne remains unclear due to small sample sizes.

This systematic review reports that for patients with underlying dermatologic disorders who contracted COVID-19, most experienced mild to moderate exacerbation of their skin conditions and were managed similarly to the general population, suggesting treatment discontinuation during acute infection may prevent severe recurrence.

This review discusses cutaneous adverse effects of psychotropic medications and reports no new findings, emphasizing the importance of psychiatrists being aware of these potential skin reactions.
