This special issue reviews advancements in engineering cell microenvironments for tissue engineering, highlighting various studies on interventions like silk fibroin and platelet-rich plasma, but presents no new empirical findings.

This case report documents a 57-year-old man with nephrotic syndrome linked to recurrent chronic graft-versus-host disease and lupus-like symptoms, with improvement after cyclosporin and steroids; however, he died later from leukemia relapse.

This study highlights the challenges adolescents with alopecia areata face, such as increased bullying and emotional difficulties, and suggests that collaborations among dermatologists, psychologists, and educators could help improve their quality of life by reducing stigma and supporting mental wellbeing.

This study highlights that biological therapy, which stimulates the immune system through various methods like cytokine injections and immune checkpoint inhibition, shows promise for treating melanoma based on laboratory and clinical studies.

This study found that PCOS patients with menstrual disorders exhibited hormonal changes and higher fasting glucose levels, despite no significant differences in insulin resistance markers.

This study investigated non-laser methods for removing permanent makeup using plant extracts, testing their decolorization effects on mice through tattooing and electroporation techniques.

This study found that combining adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells with platelet-rich plasma improved key healing markers in bowel anastomoses in rats with induced colitis, suggesting potential benefits for anastomosis recovery even in inflamed conditions.

This study observed that women with higher educational levels and social status are diagnosed with frontal fibrosing alopecia earlier, resulting in better therapeutic responses.

This article highlights that hormonal changes during menopause can significantly affect hair health, leading to decreased hair density, altered texture, and increased hair disorders, which may subsequently impact emotional well-being in women.

Healthcare access for alopecia areata in the USA is unequal among ethnic groups.

This study found that permanent makeup pigments were applied at similar depths as traditional tattoo inks in mice but faded over time due to larger inorganic pigments.

In this multicentric retrospective study, researchers reported that cutaneous adverse events were common among advanced breast cancer patients treated with cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDK4/6i), generally mild, and manageable with topical treatments, though in some cases, they led to treatment discontinuation.

This study observed that alopecia areata in children often presents as mild scalp patches, with the majority showing some hair regrowth following treatment, particularly when using potent topical steroids, which were most commonly prescribed in the reviewed cases.

This study found that D-peptide crosslinked MAP hydrogels accelerate skin regeneration and promote adaptive immunity, despite faster scaffold degradation in vivo.

This study developed a geometric framework for estimating safe donor harvesting in hair transplants, showing that individual hair characteristics like caliber and length significantly affect donor capacity.

In this review, the authors discuss various skin conditions linked to hyperandrogenism, such as acne and alopecia, with a focus on androgen-targeted therapies, suggesting these are generally more effective than non-androgen-targeted options.

This review provides a clinical guide for safely using dermo-aesthetic treatments to improve the quality of life for oncology patients dealing with treatment-related side effects, emphasizing the importance of consulting with an oncologist before undergoing such procedures.

This study found that among users of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, semaglutide and tirzepatide were associated with higher incidences of hair loss, particularly androgenetic alopecia and telogen effluvium, with rapid weight loss identified as a potential contributor to telogen effluvium.

In this study, researchers observed that patients with androgenetic alopecia show differences in scalp microbial communities compared to the general population, including an increase in Cutibacterium acnes, particularly in males, which may interact with lipid and immune pathways to contribute to hair follicle miniaturization.

This review explores the potential roles of extracellular vesicles in various medical fields, emphasizing their promise but noting the need for standardization and clinical testing before widespread application.

This review discusses the complex genetic factors contributing to androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the variability in genetic risk across different populations and the emerging understanding of personalized treatment strategies, but reports no new clinical findings.
