This article discusses primary cicatricial alopecia, highlighting the need for early and precise diagnosis to effectively manage and treat these complex inflammatory hair disorders, but presents no new clinical results.

S-1 treatment led to a complete response in pancreatic cancer with manageable side effects.

In this case report, a rare form of chronic cutaneous lupus, lupus erythematosus profundus, was treated effectively with topical and systemic therapies, leading to improvement and healing of ulcerations, though resulting in atrophic scars and macules.

This study found that flutamide-induced liver toxicity in prostate cancer patients was very rare, occurring in only 0.18% of cases with clinical manifestations, and symptoms resolved after discontinuing the drug.

This review compiles existing data on frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights the promise of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors as a treatment option, while noting the need for clarity on its cause and progression.

This research analyzed 72 primary scarring alopecia cases in a Barcelona hospital, finding that the majority involved women, with a lymphocytic infiltrate and subacute onset in many cases, leading to stable disease, while neutrophilic cases had more acute episodes.

This study found that diffuse and pseudo-fringe sign patterns are common in Asian patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, and that treatments combining antiandrogens or antimalarials with topical therapy are effective.

This case report details a 17-year-old boy diagnosed with atypical juvenile pityriasis rubra pilaris (type 5) after presenting with persistent itchy skin lesions since age seven.

This study found that orally administering the CCR5 inhibitor Maraviroc improved hair loss in 4 out of 5 mice with alopecia areata and also reduced the development of the condition, evidenced by decreased CCR5+ T-cell infiltration in treated mice.

This study suggests that the outer root sheath of human hair follicles may act as a "metabolic center," capable of synthesizing glucose from lactate, which supports glycogen metabolism.

This study reviewed 18 postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting frontotemporal hairline recession and eyebrow loss, often treated with steroids, triamcinolone, and other medications.

This study suggests that STAT3 signaling in keratinocytes is crucial for maintaining skin homeostasis by regulating hair follicle-specific keratin genes, potentially impacting dermatitis development through microbe-triggered inflammatory responses.

In this study, nearly 5% of anti-TNF-treated patients with IBD developed psoriasiform skin lesions, with smoking identified as a main risk factor, and ustekinumab proved highly effective in severe cases.

This review elaborates on the skin side effects of chemotherapy and emphasizes identifying and managing both common and life-threatening skin reactions, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study found that red ginseng oil (RXGIN) significantly improved lower urinary tract symptoms and some aspects of sexual function in men, with no serious adverse events reported.

This article reviews historical uses of the term "lupus" for various skin disorders but provides no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the role of immune cells in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata and highlights emerging immunomodulatory strategies and novel therapeutic targets aimed at offering more effective and durable treatments for this autoimmune hair loss disorder.

This study found that applying topical imiquimod during mid and late telogen in mice activates hair follicle stem cells and influences immune cell infiltration, promoting hair cycle entry independently of Wnt signaling.

In this study, researchers created a detailed human skin cell atlas by analyzing over 700,000 cells, finding that disrupted communication among specific immune and stromal cell subsets may play a key role in initiating and sustaining chronic skin inflammation in atopic dermatitis.

This study found that human dermal γδT-cells can act as stress sentinels and potentially trigger autoimmune responses toward stressed hair follicles, resembling features of alopecia areata.

This review discusses potential immune therapies targeting regulatory T cells for age-related diseases and emphasizes the need for further research to translate these therapies into clinical practice.

This study demonstrates that T-cell responses in extensive alopecia areata scalp may be aberrantly regulated, with reduced cytokine production but activated phenotype, providing insight into the disease's immune mechanisms.

This review reports no new results but highlights the secretory function of keratinocytes, focusing on how various secretions, notably growth factors, impact stem cell differentiation into keratinocytes.

T cells affect skin cell genes in inflammatory diseases, and therapy can normalize these changes.

This study found that local injections of interleukin-4 and neutralizing anti-interferon-γ antibody effectively treated alopecia in a mouse model, suggesting potential therapeutic pathways for human alopecia areata.
