Skin problems can indicate different diseases inside the body.

In this study, researchers identified compound 30a as a promising topical androgen receptor antagonist that promoted hair growth in mouse models of androgenetic alopecia without noticeable toxicity, suggesting its potential for treating this hair loss condition.

This study found that subcutaneous injection of a CXCL12 neutralizing antibody significantly promoted hair growth in androgenic alopecia and inhibited hair loss in alopecia areata in mouse models, suggesting its potential as a promising treatment for hair loss.

In this study, cinnamic acid was found to enhance hair growth in human dermal papilla cells and hair follicle organoids by activating oxytocin signaling, suggesting its potential for developing hair growth-promoting products.

In this study, Panax ginseng extract and its ginsenosides were found to stimulate the proliferation of hair-related cells and promote the transition from the telogen to the anagen phase, enhancing hair-shaft growth by suppressing BMP4 expression in human dermal papilla cells.

In this case report, a 58-year-old man's 30-year undiagnosed pruritic rash in the pubic area was successfully treated with topical ketoconazole after being identified as white piedra using a Wood lamp.

This review of interventions for alopecia areata found no significant treatment benefits for hair growth compared to placebo, indicating a need for larger, well-conducted studies.

This case presentation describes an adult with tinea capitis and related symptoms who was found to have a Trichophyton gypseum infection.

This case report describes a 10-year multidisciplinary treatment of a transgender woman in Slovenia, reporting a successful medical and social transition with stable emotional health, abstinence from alcohol, and no regrets following her transition.

This article discusses the hair cycle of mice and its relevance in studying experimental carcinogenesis sequences, but it reports no new research findings.

This study found that adding inositol or biotin to a pig's diet without sulfathalidine had no effect on growth or feed efficiency, but both helped alleviate deficiency symptoms caused by sulfathalidine.

This case study outlines the life of Madam C.J. Walker, an entrepreneur who developed hair care products for Black women, and became the first self-made female millionaire in the USA, highlighting ongoing challenges in dermatology regarding skin of color.

In this study, researchers observed that heat stress significantly affected hair and skin traits in two indigenous goat breeds, with Kodi Aadu goats demonstrating greater thermal resilience compared to Kanni Aadu goats, potentially due to differences in gene expression and methylation.

This study proposes a simple fluorescence method to evaluate hair damage and protection, suggesting that emissive properties of hair can aid in substantiating cosmetic claims.

This study found that 6-Gingerol significantly suppressed hair growth in mice by reducing hair follicle number and length, potentially through increased expression of MMP2 and MMP9.

This review discusses the role of hair dyes in cosmetic dermatology, their effects on hair and scalp health, and the importance of dermatologists understanding potential side effects; it reports no new findings.

This study assessed hair whorl characteristics in domestic dogs and found that simple whorls predominate, with tufted whorls more common in specific regions like elbows and chests, influenced by factors such as coat traits and source.

In this study, researchers found that human scalp hair, particularly when unwashed, can significantly react with ozone, reducing personal ozone exposure and increasing exposure to volatile reaction products.

This study found that human hair cuticle and cortex have different protein structures, with beta-sheet and disorder configurations in the cuticle and alpha-helical structures in the cortex.

This study reports that generalized discoid lupus erythematosus is a recognized canine variant of cutaneous lupus erythematosus, resembling its human counterpart, with varied treatment responses and common relapses.

In this case study, a 19-month-old infant with palmoplantar keratoderma and nail dystrophy was found to have a desmoplakin gene mutation, leading to cardiomyopathy by age 7, illustrating diagnostic challenges and the potential link between skin, dental, and cardiac anomalies.

This report highlights a case of a 35-year-old man developing alopecia universalis following alemtuzumab treatment for multiple sclerosis, suggesting potential links between this medication and drug-induced alopecia areata, though the genetic overlap of the conditions may also play a role.

This manuscript reports on the first case of perforating necrobiosis lipoidica in Colombia, marking the 19th documented case worldwide.

This study found that in human hair bulbs, telomerase is present mainly in the nuclei of cells undergoing proliferation, particularly in the matrix epithelium during the anagen phase, and sparsely in the outer root sheath during late catagen and telogen phases.

This review discusses the use of acarbose for managing polycystic ovary syndrome and notes positive but limited evidence from small trials, indicating a need for more rigorous studies.

This study found that while kidney transplant recipients generally reported good quality of life on immunosuppressive therapies, women experienced more distressing symptoms and lower satisfaction compared to men.

This study suggests that congenital alopecia areata should be considered for newborns with alopecia, supporting the use of topical corticosteroids as a reasonable initial treatment option based on observed regrowth.

This case report describes a rare instance of lichen planus preceding vitiligo in a 13-year-old boy, suggesting a non-coincidental association between the two conditions.

In this case report, combination therapy with topical tretinoin, topical and intralesional steroids, and systemic doxycycline showed improvement in AKN lesions for a 19-year-old man, with notable reductions in lesion size and number observed by the second week.

This report of four pediatric alopecia cases highlights the varied patterns and treatments, noting that differentiating alopecia from trichotillomania is crucial due to their different management approaches.
