Tiger tail banding and hair abnormalities are reliable indicators for diagnosing trichothiodystrophy.

In this case report, a 42-year-old woman with cutaneous dermatomyositis showed significant improvement, including reduction of erythema, pruritus, and scaling, after starting JAK inhibitor tofacitinib, especially when conventional systemic treatments failed and intravenous immune globulin wasn't viable.

This study found that topical tacalcitol improved roughness and scaling in erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli, although it was less effective for facial erythema.

This study used a probabilistic Boolean network model to explore hair follicle cell fate regulation and predicted that varying TGF-β levels, in coordination with BMP and TNF, can influence either apoptosis or cell proliferation during different follicle growth stages.

This study found that LEF1/TCF3 is necessary but not sufficient for TOPGAL activation in hair follicle development, indicating complex regulation in the skin.

This study found that the tetracycline-regulated transcription system effectively controls conditional gene expression in the mouse epidermis, allowing suppression and activation of specific genes with doxycycline.

This case report describes a patient with eruptive tumor of follicular infundibulum, emphasizing the need for dermatologists to include it in the differential diagnosis of acquired facial hypopigmentation.

In this study, D-OCT imaging revealed distinct structural and vascular changes in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting the technique's potential for diagnosing and monitoring the condition's activity.

This study demonstrated that safflower seeds can be engineered to express oleosin-FGF10, which showed a dose-dependent effect on cellular proliferation, potentially facilitating scalable protein production.

This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing human H-ferritin showed mild growth retardation and a temporary hairless phenotype, highlighting H-ferritin's physiological roles.

This case report describes a 14-year-old female with tufted hair folliculitis, where isotretinoin reduced inflammation and exudation but persistent hair tufting remained, highlighting the challenges in treating this rare condition.

Hair transplantation effectively treated a bald patch in an 18-year-old woman with Temporal Triangular Alopecia.

This study observed that the ontogenetic transition from scarless repair in early fetal rat wounds to scar-forming repair in late gestation is associated with differential TGF-β ligand and receptor expression patterns.

This article discusses the pseudo 'fringe sign' in frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting that it is not solely related to traction, and it reports no new clinical results.

The case study reports a patient with acute telogen effluvium in the donor region post-hair transplant, highlighting trichoscopic findings that aid in diagnosis and reassuring the self-resolutive nature of this condition.

This case report described a 24-year-old with alopecia totalis who saw full scalp hair regrowth by the 9th month while using oral tofacitinib, which was well-tolerated and did not show serious adverse effects. Longer-term studies are needed to confirm its overall effectiveness for alopecia totalis.

This study reports that a 21-year-old male with alopecia totalis responded positively to the JAK inhibitor tofacitinib, achieving complete hair regrowth after six months of treatment without significant side effects, though further research is needed to evaluate long-term efficacy.

This article presents a toolkit created by the FTA to help transit agencies manage employees' use of medications that could impact public safety, but it reports no new results.

HGF combined with ADA is highly accurate for diagnosing tuberculous pleural effusion, especially in younger females.

TGF-β signaling is essential for new hair growth after wounds.

In this study, oral tofacitinib showed higher efficacy and tolerability in treating refractory alopecia totalis and universalis compared to traditional treatments, achieving a 50% improvement in severity scores for 44.4% of patients over six months, with fewer adverse effects.

In this study, CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ Regulatory T cells were found to reduce TGF-b1 induced lung fibrosis and fibrocyte accumulation in mice, partly by suppressing fibroblast growth factor 9.

This case report describes a unique presentation of frontal fibrosing alopecia characterized by a hair loss pattern that resembles the Greek letter upsilon, supported by trichoscopic and histological findings.

This study found that taurine uptake by isolated human hair follicles promoted hair survival and protected against TGF-β1-induced damage in an in vitro setting.

Researchers found an RNA transcript that might help control a growth factor linked to tumor development.

This study indicates that a helminth-derived protein, TGF-β mimic, may accelerate wound healing and promote regenerative processes in skin tissue by interacting with TGF-β receptors.

This study found that skin exposure to toluene diisocyanate in mice creates immune-recognition reservoirs in the skin's stratum corneum and hair follicles, potentially leading to sensitization and allergic reactions.

In this case report, a woman with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome and hidradenitis suppurativa showed significant improvements in both conditions after six months of treatment with tofacitinib, a Janus Kinase inhibitor, with no recurrence or adverse events noted during a two-year follow-up.

Human growth factor 20 can boost mouse whisker growth.

In this study, researchers found that the thyroxine receptor agonist TDM10842 accelerated the onset of anagen, a hair growth phase, in C3H mice, potentially through activation of the Wnt/beta-catenin and Hedgehog pathways, with Pclaf playing a key role in this process.
