Dermal papilla cells (DPCs) are a crucial subset of mesenchymal cells in the skin responsible for regulating hair follicle development and growth, making them invaluable for cell-based therapies targeting hair loss. However, obtaining sufficient DPCs with potent hair-inducing abilities remains a persistent challenge. In this study, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drug library was utilized to screen small molecules capable of reprogramming readily accessible human skin fibroblasts into functional DPCs.

Altered steroid hormone concentrations are discussed as a possible underlying mechanism, as these have been associated with depressive symptoms in previous studies outside the postpartum period. While higher paternal testosterone levels have been found to protect against paternal postpartum depressive symptoms (PPDS), an association between higher cortisol levels and PPDS has been seen in postpartum mothers, with no comparable studies available on fathers.

Purpose: To describe a technique using retroauricular scalp graft for eyebrow reconstruction, along with problems encountered and countermeasures in treatment.
Methods: We present a patient with eyebrow loss following resection of a malignant schwannoma. We initially covered the defect from the upper eyelid to the eyebrow area with artificial dermis for hemostasis and to increase the granulation of the graft bed.
