In this study, researchers found that the expression of SLC1A6, a gene linked to calcium gradient and keratinocyte differentiation in the skin, significantly decreases with age, which may contribute to reduced skin barrier function in elderly individuals.

This phase I study reported that ETC-159, targeting Wnt signalling, showed tolerable safety profiles at doses that inhibit its pathway, though bone turnover markers increased, warranting early and regular monitoring. No tumor responses were observed, but two patients achieved stable disease for several cycles.

This case report describes areata-like lupus in a 63-year-old woman, characterized by nonscarring patchy alopecia similar to alopecia areata, without meeting systemic lupus erythematosus criteria.

This study characterized the physical-chemical properties of Eclipta alba and identified compounds in the plant that could support its use in developing hair loss treatments.

This study reports that children receive only 46.5% of recommended health care services.

Low androgen levels can still cause female pattern hair loss.

Reflectance confocal microscopy can tell apart white dots on the scalp as either sweat gland ducts or hair follicle openings.

Inositol helped cure hair loss around rats' eyes and improved their growth.

Mouse embryos can develop in chick embryos, but they grow smaller with some organ issues.

This article explores how narratives around racial and ethnic minorities versus fat individuals during the Covid-19 pandemic influenced the framing of these groups as "at-risk," with disparities in blame and responsibility linked to structural racism and anti-obesity rhetoric.

This article reports on a typical case of lichen planopilaris with foreign-body granulomas around hair shaft material, suggesting these may be an additional criterion for diagnosing late-stage LPP/FFA.

This study reports promising preliminary trends in the safety and efficacy of a botanical drug candidate for pediatric alopecia areata, but conclusive results are not yet available.

This study reports an increase in the frequency and variety of skin conditions associated with COVID-19, noting that milder cases often present with pernio-like lesions, while severe cases may involve livedo racemosa, retiform purpura, and acral ischemia.

This study observed an increase in alopecia cases among patients recovering from COVID-19 in Bangladesh during the pandemic compared to the previous year.

This index of Harper's Textbook of Pediatric Dermatology, Fourth Edition, provides no clinical results or new findings.

This study discusses how dermatological issues in athletes can arise from or be exacerbated by mechanical trauma, infections, and environmental factors, highlighting the importance of thorough history and examination to differentiate these from other skin conditions.

This review discusses hypersensitivity reactions to anticoagulants, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and exploring various diagnostic and management options, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This review identified distinguishing features of adult Kawasaki Disease compared to pediatric cases, noting more favorable prognosis in adults with fewer cardiovascular complications and no fatalities, although it remains a rare and often unrecognized condition.

Sericin hydrogels heal skin wounds well, regrowing hair and glands with less scarring.

The researchers observed that overexpression of Wnt10b in a mouse model can induce hair follicle regeneration by switching follicles from the resting phase to the growth phase via the Wnt-β-catenin signaling pathway.

This study found that nonionic liposomes were the most effective vehicle for delivering reporter genes into the skin of rat pups, compared to other liposome and nonliposome formulations.

COVID-19 may cause a temporary hair loss condition called telogen effluvium in some patients after recovery.

This review highlights recent insights into how IL-15 influences T cell responses and contributes to immunopathogenesis in various diseases, suggesting its crucial role in TCR-independent activation and potential in optimizing therapeutic strategies.

This study documented 70 plant species used by traditional healers in Namibia to manage AIDS-related opportunistic diseases and highlighted the need for further research on their anti-HIV properties and potential over-exploitation.

This study found that HPV16 oncogene expression in multipotent epithelial stem cells led to abnormal mobilization, altering their quiescence without affecting other stem cell markers, suggesting a distinct stem cell compartment.

This overview highlights the exploration of mesenchymal stromal cells as potential treatments for COVID-19, noting their regenerative and immunomodulatory properties for reducing ARDS severity in critically ill patients, but it provides no new clinical results.

This study found that transgenic mice with expression of HPV16 E6/E7 oncogenes showed improved ear tissue regeneration, including hair follicles and cartilage, without tumor formation.

This study in Italy observed telogen effluvium and trichodynia as common hair-related complications following COVID-19 infection, raising questions about underlying hair follicle biology and potential receptor involvement.

Sulfasalazine can cause severe allergic reactions leading to long-term autoimmune issues like hair loss and skin discoloration.

In this case study, hypertrichosis in a patient with hemophilia and hepatitis C may have been induced by IFN-alpha treatment, despite the drug usually causing hair loss.
