This study demonstrates that keratinocyte cell lines derived from cultured hair follicles can fully differentiate in organotypic skin models, offering a minimally invasive alternative to obtaining keratinocytes for research.

This review summarizes recent research on alopecia areata, highlighting advances in targeted therapies due to improved understanding of its immunopathogenesis, though it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers observed that a noncanonical mechanism involving the γ-secretase-dependent, RBPj-independent Notch intracellular domain improves survival in Msx2-Cre mice by delaying hair follicle destruction and reducing disease severity.

This study found that the less common CAG-rs4045402 and GGN-rs3138869 polymorphisms were more frequent in patients with post-finasteride syndrome and androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a genetic predisposition to AGA development.

This review discusses the pharmacological profile of teriflunomide for treating relapsing multiple sclerosis, highlighting its safety and effectiveness in reducing relapses and slowing disability progression, though direct comparisons with other oral medications are lacking.

This study found that Hex gene expression patterns in chick embryo dorsal skin during feather bud development suggest a significant role in initiating feather morphogenesis.

This review discusses how vitamin D and calcium signaling are essential for wound healing by activating epidermal and hair follicle stem cells, noting that deficiencies may lead to delayed or chronic wounds.

In this study, full-thickness wounding on Lanyu pigs led to scar formation and disrupted cell markers, while partial-thickness wounding allowed limited regeneration of rete ridges and papillary dermis.

This study identified two genome-wide significant genetic associations with seborrheic dermatitis, suggesting a potential genetic susceptibility contributing to the disease's pathogenesis.

This study found that an 8-week practice of pranic meditation was associated with improved quality of life and mental health scores in breast cancer survivors, though further research is needed for confirmation.

This study proposes a two-step method that may enhance the generation of stem-like epidermal cells with superior proliferation and differentiation potential for skin regeneration.

This study observed a potential association between the CC genotype of rs4646 and female pattern hair loss, but the authors advise caution due to lack of experiment-wide significance and recommend replication.

This study analyzes the fine structure and protein distribution in monotreme hairs, finding similarities with other mammals and detailing unique immunocytochemical features in their inner root sheaths.

This study found no strong evidence that the human hairless gene is significantly involved in the development of androgenetic alopecia, though a minor role cannot be completely ruled out.

This review discusses hypopituitarism's bidirectional relationship with COVID-19 due to metabolic comorbidities and pituitary risks, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the range of cutaneous immune-related adverse events induced by immune checkpoint inhibitors and the proposed mechanisms underlying these skin reactions, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found two patterns of Type 2 SLE symptoms: Intermittent symptoms resolving with Type 1 symptom remission and Persistent symptoms continuing regardless of Type 1 symptom activity.

This review article summarizes the potential role of advanced medical therapies—using genes, cells, and/or tissue engineering—in treating various types of alopecia, by examining clinical research, basic studies, and ongoing trials.

In this study, Far2-/- mice were observed to develop focal alopecia with altered sebaceous gland morphology and lower skin lipid levels compared to wildtype mice.

This study found that male 5α-reductase 2 knockout mice showed deficits in social dominance behaviors and reduced dopamine receptor binding in a brain region related to social ranking.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome had a higher risk of fractures, including osteoporotic and specific types like spine and forearm fractures, compared to those without the condition.

This study found that single high-dose irradiation in mice induced more severe acute skin injury and hair depigmentation, while fractional doses led to longer-term damage in the dermis and subcutis.

This study found dependencies between genetic variants and various phenotypes related to fetal and early childhood growth and neurological development in healthy infants, suggesting significant gene candidates for further investigation.

This article explores the impact of COVID-19 on aesthetic dermatology, focusing on ensuring the safety of dermatologists while maintaining adequate services during the pandemic, but does not report specific findings or outcomes.

This study designed a 66 K SNP chip using solution hybrid selection for cashmere goats, reporting SNP call rates between 95.3% and 99.8% and demonstrating its utility in genomic analyses, suggesting potential application for other species.

This study found that acne prevalence among adults in Greater Porto's primary healthcare centers was 61.5%, with only 25% of those with acne seeking treatment.

This review discusses the unique challenges faced by transgender patients with end-stage renal disease during the transplant process and outlines current management recommendations, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a novel recessive mutation in mice causing lethal congenital lamellar ichthyosis, with skin and hair follicle alterations similar to human congenital ichthyoses, linked to a specific genetic defect affecting Fatp4.

This study found that in men with sexual dysfunction, use of 5ARI may reduce sexual drive and spontaneous erections without worsening pre-existing erectile or ejaculatory issues.

This report describes the clinical and histopathological features of lipoid proteinosis in a brother and sister with lid lesions, highlighting the importance of recognizing such lesions for diagnosis.
