The exact cause of hidradenitis suppurativa is still unknown.
research What causes acne inversa (or hidradenitis suppurativa)? – The debate continues
The exact cause of hidradenitis suppurativa is unclear, but it may involve hair follicles, hormones, genetics, and smoking.
research Trichothiodystrophy: Current Concepts
TTD patients don't have a higher skin cancer risk because their main issue is with transcription, not DNA repair.
research Efficacy and safety of a dietary supplement containing a lipid co-extract from Serenoa repens and Pygeum africanum for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia (AGA) in women. Results of a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial
The supplement with Serenoa repens and Pygeum africanum significantly increased active hair growth and decreased rest phase hair in post-menopausal women with hair loss, with only mild digestive side effects.
research 202 Automated assessment of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes informs mortality in thin melanoma
An automated system can predict death risk in thin melanoma by analyzing immune cells.
research Intermediate hair follicles: a new more clinically relevant model for hair growth investigations
Intermediate hair follicles are a better model for studying hair growth and testing hair loss treatments.
research Single‐cell transcriptomics reveals a senescence‐associated IL ‐6/ CCR6 axis driving radiodermatitis
Blocking certain immune signals can reduce skin damage from radiation therapy.
research Alopecia: the questions we need to answer
We need better research to improve alopecia treatment and patient care.
research 033 IL-15 is an unexpected guardian of hair follicle immune privilege and promotes human hair growth ex vivo
IL-15 helps protect hair follicles from immune attacks and encourages hair growth.
research 035 Expansion of bacterial phosphatidylglycerol reactive CD4+ T cells in atopic dermatitis
People with atopic dermatitis have more CD4+ T cells that respond to a certain bacterial lipid, which may play a role in the skin condition's inflammation.

The study found that tight junctions reach the top layer of the skin's stratum granulosum, not just the second top layer as previously thought.
research LB1076 Using the frog embryonic epidermis as a model to study desmosome function during development
Frog skin cells need the protein desmoplakin for proper development and cell layer formation.
research Peripheral blood gene expression in alopecia areata reveals molecular pathways distinguishing heritability, disease and severity
Blood tests can help understand the genetic differences in people with alopecia areata, including how severe it is and if it's inherited.
