Targeting S100 proteins may help treat hair loss.

In this study, a serum containing Silybum marianum extract, Manganese PCA, and Lespedeza capitata extract improved hair growth and prolonged the anagen phase in a human scalp skin model.

This article introduces a silicone derivative of meadowfoam seed oil and reports its ability to penetrate and repair human hair fibers, suggesting potential use in personal-care products.

In this study, electron microscopy of follicular mucinosis showed severe cytoplasmic degeneration in hair follicles, with myelin figures and onion-like lamellar structures, but no indications of mucin release through degeneration or degradation were found.

This paper reports a rare case of focal mucinosis in a 58-year-old woman's eyelid, initially resembling a nevus, successfully treated with surgical excision with no recurrence over a three-year follow-up.

This study found that retinoic acid and a retinol complex formulation showed different permeation and compound localization in a skin equivalent model, with unique lipid changes observed with only the retinol formulation.

In this study, the glyceride content in whole mouse skin was nearly twice as high during anagen compared to telogen, suggesting potential energy utilization for hair proliferation or unrelated accumulation.

This study suggests that sweat glands may have an immune privilege similar to hair follicles, and disruptions in this could contribute to autoimmune skin diseases.

This study found that human dermal papilla cells are surrounded by a basement membrane-like extracellular matrix, which maintains their aggregated structure without strong cell‒cell contacts.

Solid Lipid Particle technology makes retinol more stable, effective, and gentle on the skin.

This study found that BBS7 is crucial for maintaining Shh signaling and periodontal ligament homeostasis, with occlusal hypofunction leading to its downregulation and impacting cell migration and angiogenesis.

This study reported that mycophenolate mofetil was effective in reducing signs and symptoms of active lichen planopilaris in 83% of patients who had failed multiple prior treatments.

This study found that ethosomal carriers enhanced dermal and transdermal drug delivery more effectively than classic liposomes, improving delivery to deep skin layers and showing potential for treating conditions like herpes labialis and diabetes.

This study found that follicular acantholysis is a common histopathological feature in pemphigus, with differences in depth between pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus lesions that may aid in diagnosis.

This study found that using 369LAB Lipid Bond, derived from plant oil triglycerides, can restore lipid content in damaged hair to natural levels and improve hair strength, integrity, and resilience after a single application, with benefits persisting even after discontinuation.

This review discusses the various roles of vitamin D in skin disorders, including established use in psoriasis and potential applications for atopic dermatitis and skin cancer prevention, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that radiation-induced salivary gland dysfunction in mice involves microvascular damage mediated by ceramide and reactive oxygen species, suggesting ROS scavengers could protect salivary function during radiotherapy for head and neck cancer.

This review summarizes recent genetic research on hidradenitis suppurativa, highlighting potential therapeutic targets and genetic mutations, but reports no new clinical findings.

Junctional proteins stabilize the inner root sheath and connect the companion layer in human hair.

In this study on wound healing, sulfated glycosaminoglycans from sturgeon cartilage enhanced fibroblast cell proliferation, migration, and collagen deposition, significantly accelerating wound closure and promoting re-epithelialization in both in vitro and in vivo tests.

This study investigated bilayer wound dressings incorporating snail secretions into chitosan matrices, finding enhanced skin cell attachment, proliferation, and antimicrobial properties, suggesting potential for skin regeneration and wound healing.

This study found that a specific T-cell receptor motif associated with lipid-antigen stimulation may play a role in the pathogenesis of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides.

This case report describes a 47-year-old man with a persistent erythematous scaly plaque on his left lower eyelid, unresponsive to conservative treatment, later diagnosed through biopsy.

This study found that the Padina arborescens extract and its component MOGG may prevent hair loss by inhibiting 5α-reductase activity, promoting cell proliferation, opening the KATP channel, and increasing PGE2 production in laboratory settings.

This study developed an emulsion formulation with optimal properties for androgenetic alopecia treatment using saw palmetto and Japanese Sophora extracts, evaluated for stability and release of active ingredients.

This study found that LDE225, a novel Smo antagonist, shows potential as a topical treatment for basal cell carcinoma due to its high affinity binding and effective inhibition of tumor growth in preclinical models.

This study describes a genetic mutation in the desmoglein 4 gene linked to localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis in Pakistani families, showing similarities to animal models with similar hair loss conditions.

This article provides an overview of lipedematous scalp, a rare condition characterized by a thickened scalp without hair loss, and emphasizes the need for further research due to limited case reports.

This study examined the structural and biochemical mechanisms of human lipocalin prostaglandin D synthase, detailing substrate and product binding processes at the catalytic site and suggesting potential for drug delivery targeting hydrophobic molecules.
