Introduction: Alopecia is a systemic disease with multiple contributing factors. Effective treatment is challenging when only hair growth mechanisms are targeted while ignoring the role of maintaining hair follicle microenvironment homeostasis, which is crucial for cell growth and angiogenesis. Oxidative stress and inflammation are major disruptors of this microenvironment, leading to inhibited cell proliferation and compromised hair follicle circulation.

Pemphigus foliaceus (PF) is one of the most common autoimmune skin diseases of dogs and cats and is characterized by the development of pustules, crusts, erosions, scales, and alopecia. Albeit poorly understood, the pathophysiology of canine and feline PF appears to involve immune dysregulation and immunoglobulin G autoantibodies that are directed against the keratinocyte cell surface. At present, the management of canine and feline PF relies on the long-term to lifelong prescription of immunosuppressive medications.

Purpose: Alopecia Areata (AA) is a complex autoimmune condition characterized by long-term inflammatory non-scarring patches of hair loss on the face, scalp, and body. Its development involves a combination of genetic, immunological, and environmental factors, making it challenging to understand and treat. This study aims to assess the awareness, beliefs, and psychological impact of patients with Alopecia Areata.

Testosterone signaling mediates diseases such as androgenetic alopecia and prostate cancer and is controlled by the activation of the androgen receptor (AR) and nuclear translocation of the ligand-receptor complex. This study established an immortalized dermal papilla cell line that stably expresses the AR labeled with a monomeric green fluorescence marker. The cells expressed the histone H2B protein as visualized using a red fluorescence marker, enabling the Detection of nuclear translocation under live cell conditions using image analysis.

Dissecting cellulitis (DC) of the scalp is a chronic inflammatory condition marked by neutrophilic cicatricial alopecia, often linked to staphylococcal antigens. This case report details a 34-year-old male with scarring acne who developed DC following follicular unit extraction (FUE) approximately four months prior. Trichoscopic examination revealed brown pigmented dots, erythema, and melicerous crusts.
