The authors observed that the patterned melanoderma on the hairless scalp of fair-skinned Caucasian men with androgenic alopecia resembled similar patterns seen on facial skin.

This study found that US and EU experts provided similar ratings of hair loss changes from global photographs in male subjects with androgenetic alopecia, supporting the use of standardized photographic evaluations.

This study suggests that using trichotillometry to establish the normal range of shear strain for different hair types could inform diagnostic and treatment decisions for various hair conditions.

This study found that tristimulus colorimetry is a sensitive and quantitative method for projecting hair growth rates in depilated mice, and it observed that 890 nm LED irradiation promotes hair regrowth.

In this study, optical coherence tomography detected hair follicles at the dermoepidermal junction not visible on the scalp surface in alopecia areata patients, suggesting OCT may help monitor treatment response.

This study demonstrated that cryogelation of human hair keratin allows the development of 3D scaffolds with tunable properties, supporting cell adhesion and proliferation for potential biomedical applications.

This Ph.D. project aims to evaluate the self-assembling potential of hair keratin extracts and study the cellular response to both crude and purified keratins, highlighting their potential applications from biomedical to water remediation.

This research found that keratin hydrogels derived from human hair may support cell viability and proliferation, indicating potential as 2D and 3D soft tissue culture scaffolds.

This study found that follicular streamers are mostly present in non-scarring alopecia cases, and tracking their location can improve diagnosis accuracy.

This study observed that frontal fibrosing alopecia predominantly affects postmenopausal women, can be associated with lichen planus, and may lead to progressive hairline recession, though this progression is not consistent in all cases.

This review highlights the challenges in identifying histological features of adverse reactions to soft tissue fillers and emphasizes the need for increased awareness due to product uncertainty and delayed reactions.

This study introduces the "HoVert" technique, which generates both vertical and horizontal sections from a single biopsy to effectively differentiate lichen planopilaris from discoid lupus erythematosus in alopecia cases.

This study revealed that during fetal development, MITF and Mart-1 expressing melanocytes progress from the dermis to the epidermis and hair follicles, with MITF possibly marking follicular stem cells.

This study found that Iranian patients with androgenetic alopecia had a higher terminal to vellus hair ratio compared to previous studies in Whites, suggesting potential onset of miniaturization.

This review discusses the significance of elastic tissue staining in dermatopathology, particularly for diagnosing primary elastic tissue disorders and other skin conditions, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that dilated follicular infundibula are a highly useful histopathologic criterion for diagnosing alopecia areata, particularly during its recovery stage.

This research retrospectively evaluated 92 skin specimens to propose histopathological criteria for diagnosing alopecia areata incognito, distinguishing it from telogen effluvium and androgenetic alopecia.

Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.

This study suggests that the presence and arrangement of plasmacytoid dendritic cells can help distinguish chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus from other types of scarring alopecia.

This study found a novel PAX9 gene mutation that may cause tooth agenesis and trichodysplasia in a studied family.

This case report describes a 26-year-old female with linear morphea and unique alopecia characterized by atrophic follicular remnants, resembling telogen follicles but indicating permanent alopecia, unlike typical findings in morphea-related alopecia.

This study found that diffuse alopecia in HIV-1-infected patients is characterized by higher rates of follicular stem cell apoptosis compared to controls, suggesting a hair cycle disturbance associated with the infection.

This study found that CK15 is an unreliable marker for assessing bulge zone integrity in cicatricial alopecia follicles due to its altered expression in diseased conditions.

This review of 1360 scalp biopsy specimens revealed that 12.5% of cases involved multifactorial alopecia, highlighting the diagnostic complexity of multiple forms of alopecia present in single biopsies.

This review evaluates various biopsy protocols for alopecia diagnosis and discusses the authors' experience with the St John's protocol but presents no new clinical findings.

This study reports that marked, deep dermal mucin deposition in a patient with alopecia areata may indicate underlying systemic lupus erythematosus, as this feature was not prevalent in other alopecia areata cases.

This study reported that exogenous R-spondin-1 can restore hair follicle neogenesis in adult mouse cells, highlighting differences in gene expression and signaling pathways between fetal and adult dermal papilla cells.

This study developed a DPC cell line by introducing mutant CDK4, Cyclin D1, and TERT, making it a promising tool to study downstream signaling pathways activated by testosterone in androgenetic alopecia.

This study identified a novel locus for hereditary hypotrichosis simplex on chromosome 13q12.12~12.3 in a four-generation Chinese family.
