This study extended a skin diffusion model to include a porous pathway, effectively explaining the permeability of both polar and lipophilic solutes through the stratum corneum.

In this case report, the authors describe a child with treatment-resistant alopecia areata who successfully responded to leflunomide and anthralin, proposing this combination as a potentially cost-effective alternative for managing recalcitrant cases by possibly inhibiting the JAK/STAT pathway.

This study identified key genes and signaling pathways involved in the growth phases of Pashmina goat hair follicles, highlighting the role of several gene families and transcription factors in fiber quality and growth regulation.

This study found that KRT6A expression increases after epidermal barrier disruption, worsening skin inflammation in disease conditions, and suggests that targeting KRT6A could offer a new treatment approach for inflammatory skin diseases linked to epidermal dysfunction.

This study investigated using baricitinib-loaded mesenchymal stem cell exosomes injected locally in an alopecia areata mouse model and found that this method improved hair regrowth better than baricitinib or exosomes alone, potentially offering a new therapeutic approach for treating alopecia areata.

In this review, the authors explore strategies for inducing scarless skin regeneration by modulating dermal signaling or specific fibroblast subsets to promote the formation of new hair follicles in wounds, particularly focusing on mimicking neonatal skin's regenerative capabilities.

This study reported that IL-6/STAT3 signaling influences p63 isoform expression in keratinocytes and is involved in wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis, highlighting the interplay between immune and developmental pathways.

This study identified a specific subset of macrophages as a key source of oncostatin M, maintaining hair follicle stem cell quiescence during the resting phase in mice, suggesting a potential target for treating hair disorders.

This review highlights emerging evidence that chemotherapy-induced alopecia may be driven by immune mechanisms similar to alopecia areata, involving hair follicle immune privilege collapse, and evaluates Janus kinase inhibitors as potential treatments, while cautioning about their immunosuppressive risks in cancer patients.

In this study, female rats given high doses of testosterone showed decreased endometrial thickness and lower mRNA levels of components in the LIF signalling pathway, indicating that excessive testosterone may negatively impact endometrial receptivity and potentially affect fertility.

This study reported that the anti-γc antibody hC2 restored hair follicle homeostasis and suppressed hair loss in an AA-like mouse model by inhibiting autoreactive T-cell activity, suggesting that hC2 may offer a safer and more effective treatment for alopecia areata compared to current Jak inhibitors.

In this study, Hedgehog signaling in dermal papilla fibroblasts was found to accelerate hair growth and induce follicle multiplication in mice via the SCUBE3/TGF-β pathway, with some effects observed in human scalp hair follicles.

This review discusses the role of elevated androgens in the skin-related symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome, such as acne and hirsutism, and provides insights into the mechanisms behind these manifestations to inform effective treatment strategies.

This study observed distinct plasma miRNA profiles in alopecia areata, identifying several miRNAs downregulated in both mild and severe forms; machine learning models demonstrated strong predictive accuracy, and kinase inhibitors were suggested as promising therapeutic targets based on pathway analysis.

In this study, thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) induced IL-4/IL-13 from T cells, prompting sebum secretion and adipose loss, suggesting IL-4/IL-13 may affect skin barrier function in atopic dermatitis.

This research found that reduced expression of SIRT1 in human scalp tissue may contribute to alopecia areata development by inducing immune-inflammatory responses in hair follicle cells, suggesting that SIRT1 plays a regulatory role in hair follicle immunity.

This study explored COVID-related chilblains using transcriptomics and found they showed a distinct interferon and JAK/STAT pathway activation, absent in vaccine-related chilblains, with inflammatory cell types varying over time.

This review discusses the role of various hormones in diffuse hair loss and emphasizes the need for further research to clarify their complex interactions and potential therapeutic implications, but reports no new clinical results.

This article is from the ASPS Education Network and does not report any new research findings.

This study found that 3D-printed polyamine-modified hydrogels facilitate M2 macrophage polarization and exosome secretion, enhancing skin cell compatibility and promoting wound healing and hair follicle induction in an animal model through specific signaling pathways, suggesting potential for skin disorder therapies.

This review examines targeting the JAK-STAT pathway in inflammatory skin diseases, highlighting existing JAK inhibitors and potential developments, but presents no new experimental or clinical results.

This article reviews the epidemiology, clinical evaluation, and pathogenesis of alopecia areata and highlights recent advancements, but it does not report new clinical findings.

Alopecia areata is linked to immune-related genes, suggesting JAK inhibitors as a potential treatment.

In this study, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells and their conditioned medium significantly improved symptoms in mouse models of atopic dermatitis, potentially through exosome-dependent pathways, suggesting a cell-free therapeutic strategy.

This study identified key proteins, such as Sfrp1 and Ppard, involved in the complex and dynamic regulation of yak hair follicle growth and degeneration across different stages, offering insights into yaks' adaptation to highland environments.

This study found that cell-free RNA, particularly DNAJB9, shows potential as a biomarker for diagnosing and prognosing female androgenetic alopecia using a machine learning model.

This study conducted a meta-analysis of gene expression data from alopecia areata patients, identifying 5109 differentially expressed genes and highlighting enriched pathways like JAK-STAT signaling, providing insights into the disease's pathogenesis and potential treatment targets.

In this study of Zhexi Angora rabbits, researchers found that the fine-wool group exhibited lower fiber diameters and a higher hair follicle density than the coarse-wool group, and they identified key candidate genes potentially regulating wool quality through RNA-seq and genome resequencing techniques.

This study found that oral administration of cedrol, a component of ginger, improved hair regeneration and reduced hair follicle damage in cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia areata in mice more effectively than external administration, by enhancing cytokine expression and modulating key signaling pathways.

This study investigated the gene and protein expression differences in early and late feathering chickens, identifying several pathways, like JAK-STAT and WNT, potentially involved in non-Mendelian feather growth regulation.
