research Frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planopilaris in HLA-identical mother and daughter
A mother and daughter with similar hair loss conditions and identical HLA types suggest a genetic link between the conditions.
research Other Antiandrogens
Spironolactone works well for acne and hirsutism, isotretinoin is very effective for acne and may have antiandrogenic effects, and 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors should be considered antiandrogens.

research Chapter 20 Dermatological Agents
New treatments for skin diseases are more effective and patient-friendly, but many still lack a cure.
research Aberrant inflammasome activation as a driving force of human autoimmune skin disease
Faulty inflammasome activation may lead to autoimmune skin diseases and could be a target for new treatments.
research Hairless-knockout piglets generated using the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat/CRISPR-associated-9 exhibit abnormalities in the skin and thymus
Pigs without the Hairless gene showed skin and thymus changes, useful for studying human hair disorders.
research Understanding skin morphogenesis across developmental, regenerative and evolutionary levels
The article concludes that studying how skin forms is key to understanding skin diseases and improving regenerative medicine.
research Lipid nanoparticles for topical and transdermal delivery of pharmaceuticals and cosmeceuticals
