This study found that stress increases the number of peptidergic nerve fibers and mast cell activity in mouse skin, suggesting a significant neuro-immune interaction under stress.

This study defines classification criteria for hair follicle dystrophy using a mouse model of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, providing tools for standardized hair damage assessment.

This study found that metformin treatment improved health-related quality-of-life, emotional well-being, and sexual satisfaction among women with PCOS, correlated with weight loss and menstrual cycle normalization.

This study found that metformin improved insulin resistance, hyperandrogenemia, anovulation, and acne in PCOS patients, regardless of their level of obesity or initial insulin resistance.

This study observed that hair follicle innervation in C57BL/6 mice occurs in sequential stages that closely correlate with the development of hair follicles, indicating an interdependent relationship between neuronal and epithelial morphogenesis.

This study found that mutations in the hairless gene in mice disrupt hair follicle integrity during catagen, leading to baldness due to disintegrating epithelial structures and loss of normal dermal papilla.

This study describes a case of vitamin D resistant rickets in a young girl due to end organ unresponsiveness, highlighting a possible new subtype of the disorder with distinct clinical features.

This study found that prolonged Nrf2 activation in mouse keratinocytes led to enlarged sebaceous glands, hair loss, and cysts, suggesting a role for Nrf2 in conditions like MADISH.

This narrative review discusses the impact of polycystic ovary syndrome on women's psychological and sexual well-being, highlighting the potential benefits of interdisciplinary treatments and new interventions to improve life satisfaction and coping, but reports no new results.

New mutations in the hairless gene may cause hair loss and affect bone development.

This study demonstrates that c-MYC overexpression in sebaceous glands affects differentiation via a regulatory axis involving the androgen receptor and p53, influencing carcinoma formation outcomes.

This study suggests that αMSH may play a regulatory role in human dermal papilla cells, potentially influencing immune and inflammatory responses in hair follicles, which could contribute to inflammatory alopecia.

This study found that FOXN1 haploinsufficiency is a significant genetic factor causing T cell lymphopenia at birth, linked to reduced thymic function in both humans and mice.

In this study, UVB irradiation of organ-cultured human anagen hair follicles in vitro reduced hair elongation and increased cell death, affecting hair growth and regulatory processes.

In this study, BLIMP1 was found to function in terminally differentiated epidermal cells to maintain homeostasis, rather than defining a sebocyte progenitor population.

This study found that overexpressing human Bcl-2 in mice protected epidermal keratinocytes from UVB-induced apoptosis but unexpectedly increased apoptosis during hair follicle regression and chemotherapy.

This review discusses treatment options for tinea capitis in children and reports no new clinical results; the authors recommend newer antifungal agents in cases of griseofulvin treatment failure.

This study suggests that Myc superfamily transcription factors may have distinct roles in different epithelial compartments of the human hair follicle, possibly influencing cell fate in the putative stem cell compartment.

This study found that obese patients experienced similar weight loss on a very low-calorie diet and total fast, but the diet was associated with fewer complications.

This study identified a distinct gene near the hairless locus on chromosome 8p that is responsible for hereditary Marie Unna type hypotrichosis in a German family.

This study found that metformin treatment during pregnancy in women with PCOS was associated with higher SHBG levels in newborns, but did not affect androgen or estrogen levels at birth.

This study found that dexamethasone nanocrystals significantly increased drug penetration into skin compared to a traditional cream formulation, suggesting potential benefits for treating inflammatory skin conditions.

This study describes various clinical phenotypes associated with FOXN1 mutations, finding that affected individuals may develop different severities of immunodeficiency based on their genetic mutations.

This study found that minoxidil did not significantly increase hair shaft elongation in ex vivo human hair follicle culture, questioning the suitability of this method for studying its hair-growth-promoting effects.

This study found that ICAM-1 expression in murine skin is developmentally regulated and crucial for skin and hair follicle remodeling beyond its recognized role in immune responses.

This study found that alcohol dependence is associated with altered HPA axis functioning, with AD patients showing higher hair cortisol concentrations and reduced ACTH and cortisol levels, irrespective of childhood maltreatment history.

This study found that an 8-week stress management program significantly reduced perceived stress and improved glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.

In this case study, combination therapy with dapsone and isotretinoin significantly improved perifolliculitis capitis abscedens et suffodiens, with the patient remaining symptom-free for six months on reduced medication.
