This study details a 15-year-old girl with secondary amenorrhea and other symptoms who was found to have a pituitary mass causing multiple hormonal deficiencies, diagnosed as lymphocytic hypophysitis.

In this study, researchers used iron ion coordination to successfully create a molecular knot with three organic ligand strands and eight crossings.

This review discusses the use of trichoscopy for diagnosing mimickers of patterned hair loss and assessing donor sites before hair transplant surgery, and reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that heavy draft horses with verrucous pastern dermatitis showed significantly increased expression of keratins K6 and K16, suggesting a phylogenetically conserved keratin expression pattern in response to skin inflammation and proliferation.

This study identified PTEN as a key regulator in non-healing venous leg ulcers, suppressing immune responses and lymphangiogenesis, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for promoting VLU healing.

In this study, the researchers found that the absence of the NFI-C transcription factor delayed the hair growth cycle in mice by affecting key gene expressions and signaling pathways.

This study found that keratin expression patterns vary within nail unit structures, with the nail matrix uniquely expressing the acidic hair-type keratin Ha1.

This phase II trial found that BI 2536 demonstrated limited antitumor activity across five solid tumor types, with no confirmed objective responses observed.

Hair follicle samples effectively show how well the drug MK-0752 targets and engages with the Notch pathway.

In this randomized, placebo-controlled study, Titagen® was found to improve skin, hair, and nail health in adults consuming 5g daily, and reduce pain and improve quality of life for osteoarthritis patients taking 10g daily, without related adverse events.

This study found that hoof progenitor cells from fresh equine tissue have multilineage differentiation capabilities, offering insights for future progenitor cell-based hoof and dermal-epidermal tissue engineering.

This study found that a hair tonic formulation using candlenut oil as an active ingredient could significantly promote hair growth in rabbits, achieving 29.77 mm in 22 days.

In this study, water-soluble recombinant keratins, specifically RK81, were developed and used in microneedles to investigate their effect on hair growth, discovering that more than 40% of the hair follicles responded, demonstrating the potential for hair growth promotion.

This study found that in patients with androgenetic alopecia, cardiac troponin I levels positively correlated with age and certain heart functions, indicating possible cardiac involvement in the disease's progression.

This study found that extracting RNA from equine hair follicles can effectively identify 24-hour oscillations of specific circadian clock genes, offering a valuable non-invasive method to evaluate the equine circadian clock.

In this study, researchers at Johns Hopkins University found that Keratin 17 plays a signaling role in cell growth during a wound response by aiding mTOR pathway activation, beyond its structural functions.

This study highlights the role of Orai1 in ameloblast differentiation and maturation, showing that its down-regulation affects cell proliferation and enamel formation during tooth development.

This study described four adult male cases of Kennedy disease with typical neurological symptoms and noted gynecomastia as the most frequent endocrinological manifestation, accompanied by an abnormal expansion in the androgen receptor gene.

In this study, novel mutations in the BTD gene were identified in a patient with profound biotinidase deficiency, highlighting the importance of biotinidase activity measurement and mutation analysis for early diagnosis.

This study identified a new keratin, K6irs, as a potential histological marker for the inner root sheath of hair follicles in mice and humans, and as a candidate gene for hereditary hair defects.

This study found that a silver ion cross-linked thiolated protein hydrogel, O3G7, significantly enhanced acute wound healing in mice by increasing collagen content, neovascularization, and reducing inflammation markers compared to a control group.

This study found that K6a expression in mouse sebaceous gland ducts correlates with Hedgehog signaling, suggesting a role in duct fate.

This study found that a 10% hibiscus leaf extract hair tonic demonstrated better hair growth activity than 2% minoxidil in rabbits but caused eye irritation.

This case report details a 73-year-old woman with significant hirsutism and hair loss linked to a rare ovarian Leydig cell tumor, which was resolved by bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, normalizing her testosterone levels and addressing her symptoms.

This study validated that the 20p11 genetic locus is associated with increased risk of androgenic alopecia in the Chinese Han population, suggesting shared genetic factors between Chinese and European populations.

This study sequenced a related gene to KRT2.9 called KRT2.13, which encodes a type II keratin protein not expressed in the hair follicle, and found significant sequence homology suggesting possible gene conversion or conservation of functional sequences.

This study found that administering lower doses of sodium pentaborate pentahydrate increased hair growth in rats via specific molecular pathways, while a higher dose suppressed these pathways and impaired hair growth.

This study found that the AR-E211 A allele is associated with a lower risk of both metastatic prostate cancer and androgenetic alopecia in an Australian population.

This study found that polymorphism in the STK11 gene does not predict metformin therapy response regarding menstrual regularity and other symptoms in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, despite observed improvements in several health markers post-treatment.
