This study found that Secretory Phospholipase A2-IIA (sPLA2-IIA) promotes proliferation through JNK/c-Jun signaling, distinctively affecting normal stem cells and cancer cells, suggesting it as a potential target for cancer treatment.

This study found that overexpression of sPLA2-X in mice was associated with alopecia and hair follicle abnormalities, highlighting its potential role in hair follicle homeostasis.

This study reviews the emerging role of protein S-palmitoylation in dermatology, highlighting its impact on skin functions like inflammation and barrier maintenance, and evaluating its potential as a therapeutic target for skin disorders such as alopecia and psoriasis.

This study found that human meibomian glands differ significantly from free and hair-associated sebaceous glands in morphology and lipid composition, making them highly specialized holocrine glands.

This study found that unsaturated fatty acids are more abundant in the cortex of human hair than on its surface, and steryl glycoside-like lipids may help bind the cuticle to the cortex.

This article reviews the role of skin surface lipid in mediating environmental stressors and discusses potential therapeutic interventions, reporting no new experimental findings.

In this study, mannosylerythritol lipids from soybean oil notably increased fibroblast and papilla cell viability, suggesting potential as a hair growth agent.

This study found that the medulla of Japanese hair contains unsaturated lipids such as squalene and oleic acid, which may contribute to hair glossiness.

This study introduced Scd3-Cre mice, which enabled sebocyte-specific manipulation, revealing that sebaceous lipid depletion impaired water repulsion, thermoregulation, and the ocular surface, resembling Meibomian gland dysfunction.

This study suggests that lipin-1 plays a crucial role in keratinocyte differentiation by modulating protein kinase C activity through diacylglycerol levels, with implications for skin biology.

In this study, chitosan membranes enhanced melanocyte proliferation and survival by supporting both cell-cell and cell-substrate interactions, unlike polyvinyl alcohol membranes which only facilitated cell-cell interactions.

This study suggests that breast cancer-associated phospholipids may alter the X-ray diffraction pattern of hair, potentially enabling the development of a sensitive and specific screening test for breast cancer.

This study found that the distribution of desmogleins is associated with specific types of keratinization and hair anchorage, as well as hypotrichosis.

This review discusses the application of liposomes in dermatology, highlighting their therapeutic value for drug stabilization, skin penetration enhancement, and treatment of hair follicle-associated disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that lead treatment enhances the imaging of organized hair lipid structures, revealing their orientation and possible composition as lead and calcium soaps, with potential applications in various fields.

In this study, researchers identified two mechanisms of lipid loss from hair when exposed to surfactants, with the mechanism depending on the lipid's hydrophobicity.

This study observed that sebaceous gland atrophy in psoriatic lesions correlates with the down-regulation of specific lipid biosynthetic gene modules, potentially affecting hair appearance without damaging follicles.

This study found that acid and alkaline phosphatases serve different functions in Beagle dog skin, with ALP primarily involved in growth processes and ACP in phospholipid breakdown.

This study found that fatty acid desaturation regulated by SCD1 is crucial for hair growth by maintaining hair follicle stem cell niches, with its absence causing abnormal hair growth in mice.

This study developed a sensitive method to precisely determine hair lipid composition, demonstrating specific lipid changes from the root to the tip in untreated hair fibers from two women.

Finasteride and baicalin in phospholipid vesicles effectively promote hair growth and increase follicle count.

This study found that sphingosine 1-phosphate and its receptor S1PR3 are essential in regulating the acute mechanical pain response, highlighting their role in mechanonociception without affecting responses to innocuous touch or thermal stimuli.

This paper discusses X-linked ichthyosis and its genetic causes, focusing on biochemical pathways and their role in epidermal differentiation and barrier function, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This symposium discussed the role of lipids, inflammation, and stem cells in cicatricial alopecia but reports no new research findings; it highlights lipid pathways as significant in these hair disorders.

This study found that lipids extracted from Schizochytrium sp. significantly enhanced the proliferation and survival of dermal papilla cells under oxidative stress, reduced reactive oxygen species, inhibited ferroptosis, and promoted antioxidant genes, which improved hair growth in experimental settings, suggesting a potential treatment for alopecia.

This study identifies mutations in the SRD5A3 gene as a cause of a new type of congenital disorder of glycosylation, impacting mental, ophthalmologic, and cerebellar functions.

This study observed that lectin-binding patterns in skin appendage tumors reveal differences in sweat gland tumors compared to normal tissues, but pilosebaceous tumors maintained a similar lectin-binding pattern to their corresponding normal structures.

This study identified a fungal sulfotransferase enzyme, FgSULT1, from *Fusarium graminearum*, expanding the sulfotransferase superfamily and offering new biocatalytic methods for producing bioactive sulfates.

Reactive lipids from aging cells change the extracellular matrix, affecting cell function and inflammation.
