This study developed a method using UHPLC-MS/MS and MSPE to detect trace amounts of sex hormones in cosmetics, finding progestins and estrogens in some products, and performed a preliminary safety evaluation for residual progesterone in hair loss prevention cosmetics.

This article reviews the cutaneous side effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors and targeted therapies for skin cancers, noting that while generally mild, these effects can influence treatment decisions and quality of life, underscoring the need for physicians to be aware of these adverse reactions.

This study reviews drug-induced hair changes, noting that hair loss often reverses after stopping the drug, but permanent alopecia cases post-chemotherapy are rising.

This study reports that a specific transporter protein in Staphylococcus hominis is responsible for transporting a malodour precursor, thereby playing a key role in human body odor production.

This study found that while genetic variants contribute minimally to predicting hair greying in a Polish population, age remains the primary predictor, underscoring the complexity of hair greying as a genetic trait.

This article reviews drug-induced pigmentation and reports no new clinical findings, highlighting difficulty in confirming drug associations due to factors like delayed onset and polypharmacy.

This review discusses the role of intermediate filaments in cell signaling and differentiation, emphasizing their impact on stem cell function, development, and disease, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, incorporating cetirizine into transferosome formulations significantly enhanced hair growth in mice and boosted IGF-1 and VEGF levels, suggesting that this method could be a promising alternative to traditional hair growth treatments, though further studies are needed to confirm its safety and suitability.

EGFR-targeted cancer therapy can cause skin issues starting at hair follicles, leading to inflammation.

This study developed and validated a computational model to optimize skin precooling methods for minimizing thermal damage during laser procedures.

This study found that 363 genes were differentially expressed in alopecia areata skin compared to non-lesional skin, suggesting T-cell mediated immune responses and distinct gene profiles related to the disease's stage.

This review summarizes recent discoveries of GPCRs for lysophosphatidylserine and lysophosphatidylinositol, detailing their roles as lipid mediators, but reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the development of electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds for promoting angiogenesis in tissue engineering but notes that their clinical application beyond bone and skin repair is still limited.

This study found that knocking out the transactivation domain of Miz1 in mouse keratinocytes disrupted hair follicle orientation, caused irregular pigmentation, and increased keratinocyte proliferation, indicating Miz1's role in hair follicle development and morphogenesis.

This study identified four new genetic loci associated with acne risk and highlighted key pathways involved in its genetic predisposition, potentially explaining 9.4% of acne's phenotypic variance.

This study explored the development of polymeric nanoparticles for topical spironolactone delivery, finding that larger nanoparticles (180 nm) enhanced drug targeting to hair follicles significantly more than smaller ones or non-nanoparticle formulations, offering promise for safer acne and alopecia treatments.

This review discusses various follicular unit excision methods, punch designs, and motorized devices, highlighting their roles in reducing hair follicle transection rates and optimizing graft harvesting for individual patient characteristics.

This study found that mutant mice with the we/we wal/wal genotype exhibit significant defects in hair shaft structure and epidermis stratification, correlating with postnatal alopecia symptoms.

This review highlights that Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide exhibits various bioactivities, such as antioxidant and immune-modulating effects, and explores its potential applications in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries.

This review highlights that the RNA modification N⁶-methyladenosine (m⁶A) plays a crucial role in regulating wound healing and tissue remodeling, with dysregulation contributing to complications in chronic wounds, such as diabetic ulcers and burn injuries, through mechanisms like impaired angiogenesis and increased oxidative stress.

Larger positively charged gelatin nanoparticles are more effective for delivering treatments to hair follicles.

In this study, researchers used an evolutionary-rate-based method to identify genetic elements associated with reduced hair in mammals, finding a dichotomy between accelerated coding sequences and noncoding regulatory elements influencing hair growth.

This study utilized EDAR gene-targeted cashmere goats to identify 732 differentially expressed genes and 140 proteins associated with abnormal hair growth, providing insights into the regulatory mechanisms of cashmere follicle development.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia had increased scalp microbial diversity and reduced Staphylococcus abundance, particularly in the frontal and vertex regions, suggesting this dysbiosis as a sensitive indicator of AGA.

This review examines the mechanisms behind pathological scarring like hypertrophic scars and keloids, highlights the limitations of current treatments, and suggests that biomaterial-enabled delivery of anti-fibrotic statins, such as atorvastatin, may offer a promising therapeutic avenue for managing these scars.

This study found that a novel nano-engineered platform, PCA, significantly promoted hair regeneration in an androgenetic alopecia mouse model by enhancing angiogenesis and hair follicle stem cell proliferation, showing promise for future hair regrowth treatments.

This study highlights that while advances in dermatology, such as biologics and JAK inhibitors, have improved treatments for conditions like atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, challenges remain, including issues with lasting efficacy and the need for more personalized therapies.

This study found that both dark and white dromedary camels exhibited high medullation in hair fibers, suggesting adaptations for insulation and heat dissipation in hot desert environments.

This study found that scalp cooling resulted in visible hair retention in 53% of breast cancer patients undergoing Epirubicin/Cyclophosphamide and Paclitaxel treatment, with factors like hair bulb diameter, shaft diameter, and anagen rate significantly predicting outcomes.

In a keratinocyte-specific knockout mouse model, this study found that deleting GRK2 disrupted hair follicle homeostasis, causing cyst-like structures, abnormal growth patterns, and eventual hair loss, suggesting potential links to immune-mediated alopecias.
