This study found that monoclonal antibodies can identify specific immunological characteristics of hair fibrous proteins, with some antibodies reacting only with hair proteins and others showing broader activity with skin and epithelial cells.

In this study, 68% of patients treated with finasteride showed improved hair growth in male androgenetic alopecia, compared to 38% with Serenoa repens, indicating finasteride's superior efficacy.

This review discusses the production, role, and measurement of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in various disorders of sexual development but does not report new clinical results.

This study found cell-specific variations in POMC mRNA and peptide expression in murine skin, suggesting that PC1 and PC2 convertases contribute to differential POMC processing.

This review discusses the variety of skin conditions linked to eating disorders and emphasizes that resolving these skin issues often requires treating the underlying disorder.

Human enzymes can detoxify harmful substances but might also increase their cancer risk.

This review discusses normal skin changes during pregnancy such as pigmentary and glandular alterations, highlighting the need for physician awareness to avoid unnecessary treatments, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study presents a DNA-analytical method that can reliably identify and differentiate cashmere, fine wool, yak, and camel hair fibers in both untreated and processed samples.

In this study, the researchers reported that activin B combined with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells enhanced wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in rats by promoting cell migration through the ERK and JNK pathways.

In this study, premature coronary artery disease in Indians under 40 was linked to factors like dyslipidemia, low HDL-C, smoking, and central obesity, with cutaneous markers significantly associated.

In this study, hair loss after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy was associated with zinc and iron levels, even within normal ranges, and a combined variable of zinc and iron predicted susceptibility to hair loss.

This article reviews the characteristics and classification criteria of cutaneous lupus erythematosus and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that most patients with folliculitis decalvans showed improvement and remission with oral antibiotics, although some experienced relapses and required prolonged treatment.

This study found that long-term flutamide treatment reduced hair loss in women with female pattern hair loss, but liver-related dropouts were minimized at a very low dose of 62.5 mg/day.

In this study, hair samples from breast cancer patients showed increased β-sheet structures and lipid content, with spectral markers successfully identifying cancer in a blind test but also producing false positives.

Negative expectations can cause adverse effects in patients even without active treatment, and managing this nocebo effect involves better communication and patient-clinician relationships.

In this study, the researchers identified the specific subcellular localization of the protein S100A3 in the endocuticle and cortex of human hair shafts.

In this study, glyburide prevented or significantly reduced cardiovascular lesions in dogs caused by minoxidil by blocking its hemodynamic effects, suggesting the toxicity is related to these profound effects rather than direct heart toxicity.

This study found that in neonatal mice, the absence of the NG2 proteoglycan leads to reduced epidermal thickness and delayed subcutis thickening due to impaired proliferation and adipocyte deficiencies.

This study found that ACE2 and TMPRSS2 genes were more highly expressed in tumors of elderly male cancer patients compared to healthy individuals, with notable differences across age and gender.

This discussion proposes a model to incorporate patients with hormone-resistant prostate cancer into the existing framework by redefining hormone resistance and exploring new therapeutic approaches.

This case report highlights a woman who developed new-onset alopecia areata after starting adalimumab for psoriatic arthritis, challenging the assumed role of TNF-alpha in the condition's pathogenesis.

This article highlights adverse skin reactions due to injectable therapies for MS, noting that while generally mild, some cases can progress to serious lesions requiring medical intervention.

This study showed that in C3H/HeJ mice, focal follicular inflammation starts before overt hair loss, with inflammation severity possibly reaching a threshold causing hair follicle dystrophy prior to visible hair loss.

This review describes psychotropic drug-related hair loss as a possible but uncommon side effect, with resolution typically achieved by discontinuing the medication, and emphasizes clinician-patient discussions for managing the condition.

This case report describes a patient with SLE and APLS who developed basaloid follicular hamartomas, which persisted despite aggressive treatment for SLE, although hair regrowth occurred.

This review develops expert-guided recommendations for hidradenitis suppurativa management, highlighting evidence for the effectiveness of antibacterial and anti-tumor necrosis factor therapies, but reports no new clinical trial results.

This study established a new mouse model for TCE-induced skin sensitization and reported that proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IFN-γ, and IL-2 significantly contribute to this sensitization process.

This review covers the ongoing debate on measuring underinsurance in health coverage and reports no new empirical results, recommending a national effort to standardize underinsurance metrics.

This study suggests that hairless dogs' skin shows sensitivity to topical corticosteroids, highlighting their potential as a model for studying the efficacy and adverse effects of these treatments on skin.
