This study found that KRTAP2 proteins predominantly express in the hair shaft cortex of humans, interact with hair keratins, and play crucial roles in hair shaft keratinization.

This study found that "micro skin tissue columns" improved wound healing by enhancing re-epithelialization, collagen deposition, dermal remodeling, and reducing inflammation without causing long-term donor site morbidity.

Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.

A patient with alopecia had hair regrowth with tofacitinib but developed a skin reaction, choosing to continue the treatment despite the side effect.

Cathepsin L deficiency causes hair and skin issues in mice.

This case report describes the first documented occurrence of pili torti in a healthy young adult cat, marked by noninflammatory and nonpruritic symmetrical multifocal alopecia.

This study found that the ID2 gene was highly expressed in bulge-derived keratinocytes when exposed to contact sensitizers and may serve as a marker to distinguish sensitizers from irritants during in vitro testing.

TrichoScan accurately measures hair growth and loss, showing increased hair counts and thickness with treatment.

This study found that short-term treatment with ROCKi significantly increased keratinocyte stem cell proliferation without affecting their stemness, suggesting a potential safe approach for improving in vitro keratinocyte cultures for clinical applications.

This letter compares automated digital image analysis (TrichoScan) with manual marking of hairs in male patients with androgenetic alopecia but reports no new results.

This study identified three genes in the ovine KAP13 family on chromosome 1 and found that a specific allele of KRTAP13-2 is associated with improved wool fibre diameter uniformity in Chinese Tan sheep, suggesting its potential use as a marker for enhancing wool traits.

This letter discusses congenital triangular alopecia (TTA), a non-scarring hair loss condition often seen in children, without reporting new clinical findings.

This study found that irisin, a myokine, increases hair growth by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, enhancing cell proliferation and hair shaft elongation in both human cell and mouse models.

A new gene mutation may allow some piebaldism patients to regain skin color in white patches.

Type I keratin genes are closely linked to the rex locus on mouse chromosome 11, affecting hair development.

This study found that a microneedle patch containing tofacitinib-loaded nanoparticles significantly increased hair follicle numbers and promoted hair regeneration with less drug compared to daily topical tofacitinib, suggesting it may be an effective strategy for alopecia treatment by reducing dosing frequency and enhancing drug delivery.

This text describes kerion, a severe form of tinea capitis, and emphasizes the difficulty of diagnosis and the need for oral antifungal treatment, but reports no new clinical results.

This research describes using advanced mass spectrometry imaging techniques to analyze gunshot residue and map molecular components in biological samples, such as tumors and mosquito ovarian follicles, at unprecedented spatial resolution and specificity.

This study suggests that erlotinib exacerbates inflammation in a mouse model of skin disease and that IL-1 inhibition could mitigate skin-related side effects of EGFR inhibitors.

This study found that the absence of Sgk3 in mice leads to impaired hair follicle maturation, characterized by reduced cell proliferation, increased apoptosis, and premature regression.

Tralokinumab may help improve symptoms of atopic dermatitis and alopecia areata.

This case report describes successful treatment of a four-year-old boy with kerion-type tinea capitis caused by T. mentagrophytes using griseofulvin, erythromycin, wet dressing, and ketokonazole shampoo, with improvement after 8 weeks.

This study provides evidence supporting a regulatory relationship between the transcriptional regulator Hoxc13 and Krtap16 genes, which are crucial for proper hair growth in mice.

This study found that oral Janus kinase inhibitors were effective in treating alopecia areata, with a clinical response rate of 48.3%, though further research is needed to assess long-term effects.

This study demonstrates that keratin K2 is crucial for proper keratinocyte structure and function in specific mouse skin areas, and its deficiency leads to cellular aggregates and skin abnormalities.

This source discusses the potential of topical JAK inhibitors, like tofacitinib, as effective treatments for autoimmune skin diseases, emphasizing their superior safety profile and minimal adverse effects compared to conventional systemic therapies.
