research Serum Levels of Retinol-Binding Protein 4 and Adiponectin in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Associations with Visceral Fat But No Evidence for Fat Mass-Independent Effects on Pathogenesis in This Condition
Women with PCOS have similar levels of certain proteins compared to women without PCOS, and these proteins don't independently cause PCOS.
research Cyclosporine for moderate-to-severe alopecia areata: A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial of efficacy and safety
Cyclosporine showed some improvement in alopecia areata but results were not statistically significant.
research SALT II: A new take on the Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) for determining percentage scalp hair loss
The updated SALT II tool offers a more precise way to measure scalp hair loss.
research Hair Follicle and Sebaceous Gland De Novo Regeneration With Cultured Epidermal Stem Cells and Skin-Derived Precursors
Scientists discovered that certain stem cells from mice and humans can be used to grow new hair follicles and skin glands when treated with a special mixture.
research Hair Loss in Females after Sleeve Gastrectomy: Predictive Value of Serum Zinc and Iron Levels
Low zinc and iron levels can predict hair loss after sleeve gastrectomy in women.

TGFβ signaling prevents sebaceous gland cells from producing fats.
research Genome-wide meta-analysis implicates mediators of hair follicle development and morphogenesis in risk for severe acne
Genetic variations affecting skin structure play a key role in severe acne.
research Differential sensitivity of epidermal cell subpopulations to β-catenin-induced ectopic hair follicle formation
Sebaceous glands can form new hair follicles when activated, but hair follicle bulges cannot.
research Alefacept for Severe Alopecia Areata
Alefacept does not effectively treat severe alopecia areata.
research Hair melanocytes as neuro-endocrine sensors—Pigments for our imagination
Hair melanocytes help the skin respond to stress and regulate hair pigmentation.
research Sensory innervation of the hairs of the rat hindlimb: A light microscopic analysis
Different types of hairs on a rat's hindlimb have varying levels and patterns of nerve innervation.
research Heparan Sulfate Regulates Hair Follicle and Sebaceous Gland Morphogenesis and Homeostasis
Heparan sulfate is important for hair growth, preventing new hair formation in mature skin, and controlling oil gland development.
research Clinical picture, diagnosis, treatment and outcome of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in children
Children generally have milder SARS symptoms than adults, with good outcomes and no deaths reported, but long-term effects are unclear.
research Selective inhibition of JAK3 signaling is sufficient to reverse alopecia areata
Blocking JAK3 signaling can reverse hair loss from alopecia areata.
research Are sex discordant outcomes in COVID-19 related to sex hormones?
Sex hormones may affect COVID-19 severity, with men often faring worse, and targeting related pathways could offer treatment options.
research A randomized placebo-controlled single-center pilot study of the safety and efficacy of apremilast in subjects with moderate-to-severe alopecia areata
Apremilast was not effective in treating moderate-to-severe alopecia areata.
research Effects of a novel finasteride 0.25% topical solution on scalp and serum dihydrotestosterone in healthy men with androgenetic alopecia
The 0.25% finasteride solution, when applied once a day, effectively reduces scalp DHT, potentially minimizing sexual side-effects linked to a systemic DHT reduction.
research Recent positive selection of a human androgen receptor/ectodysplasin A2 receptor haplotype and its relationship to male pattern baldness
A specific genetic mutation may increase male pattern baldness risk, especially in Europeans.
research Seventy‐MHz Ultrasound Detection of Early Signs Linked to the Severity, Patterns of Keratin Fragmentation, and Mechanisms of Generation of Collections and Tunnels in Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Ultrasound can help detect early signs and severity of hidradenitis suppurativa.
research Folliculitis decalvans: Effectiveness of therapies and prognostic factors in a multicenter series of 60 patients with long-term follow-up
Some treatments for folliculitis decalvans work well, with tetracyclines and a mix of rifampicin and clindamycin being most effective.
research Prevalence of Common Skin Diseases and Their Associated Factors among Military Personnel in Korea: A Cross-sectional Study
Over 60% of Korean military personnel had skin diseases, commonly acne and athlete's foot, linked to service length and stress.
research Normal Fur Development and Sebum Production Depends on Fatty Acid 2-Hydroxylase Expression in Sebaceous Glands
FA2H is essential for normal fur and sebum production in mice.
research Low sex-hormone binding globulin levels in young women with diffuse hair loss
Young women with diffuse hair loss may have low SHBG levels, which could lead to more active testosterone and contribute to their hair loss.
research Severe Skin Permeability Barrier Dysfunction in Knockout Mice Deficient in a Fatty Acid ω-Hydroxylase Crucial to Acylceramide Production
Lack of a key enzyme causes severe skin issues and death in mice.
research Post-finasteride syndrome and post-SSRI sexual dysfunction: two sides of the same coin?
PFS and PSSD are similar conditions with persistent sexual dysfunction after stopping medication.
research Dermoscopic findings in scalp psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis; Two new signs; Signet ring vessel and hidden hair
