This case report describes a 4-year-old girl with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, linked to mutations in the cadherin 3 gene affecting P-cadherin expression.

This study identified a novel CDH3 mutation associated with sparse hair and pigmentary macular changes in two siblings with hypotrichosis but no visual symptoms.

In this study, scalp biopsies from HJMD patients revealed histological similarities to chronic telogen effluvium and highlighted the role of CDH3 mutations disrupting normal hair cycles.

The researchers reported that the rat Hershberger assay reliably detected endocrine-disrupting effects of finasteride, procymidone, and 17α-methyltestosterone, validating the assay's sensitivity for identifying hormonal activity.

This study developed and validated a high-resolution mass spectrometry method to screen for prohibited substances and analyze six endogenous steroids in urine according to World Antidoping Agency requirements, demonstrating its effectiveness for antidoping analysis.

This case report documents a female toddler with novel compound heterozygous mutations in the VDR gene causing hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets, expanding the known mutation spectrum for this disease.

Masculinization in affected individuals occurs gradually after puberty due to hormone changes.

This study identified a human sequence likely coding for a new ultra-high sulphur protein, which may aid in understanding hair differentiation and the molecular basis of human trichothiodystrophy.

This study developed a new HPLC method for detecting prohibited substances like minoxidil and hydrocortisone in cosmetic products, achieving high sensitivity and successful application to real-world samples.

In this study, a Chinese Han family with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets was found to have a homozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, and the affected individual uniquely responded well to treatment with oral calcium and low-dose calcitriol.

This study observed hair-specific transcription of a reporter gene in transgenic mice, with increased expression after dexamethasone and ultraviolet B treatment.

In this study, 17β-estradiol increased VEGF production in differentiated THP-1 cells, while dihydrotestosterone counteracted this effect by modulating adenylate cyclase activity.

This study found that skin organoids derived from iPSCs with an HS-associated NCSTN mutation showed defects in hair follicle stem cell differentiation and increased expression of inflammatory proteins related to hidradenitis suppurativa.

This case report highlights a family member with a confirmed diagnosis of hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy due to a CDH3 gene mutation, emphasizing the importance of genetic testing for accurate counseling.

This case series reported that three pediatric patients with hidradenitis suppurativa showed decreased frequency and severity of disease flares after treatment with oral finasteride, with no significant adverse effects.

PRO-C22 can help diagnose and monitor the severity of hidradenitis suppurativa.

This study found that the mutant hairless rhino bald protein in mice interacts with the vitamin D receptor but cannot repress its transactivation and shows abnormal cellular localization.

In this study, researchers identified a unique Arg30stop mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene that causes hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets in a young French-Canadian boy by truncating the receptor and causing hormone resistance.

This study observes the expression of mRNA for androgen receptor, 5α‐reductase, and 17β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in human dermal papilla cells.

Myrtle has various health benefits and potential for medicine development.

This study found that liposomes coated with cationic polymers, chitosan and Eudragit EPO, showed improved physicochemical stability and enhanced skin diffusion of aciclovir and minoxidil compared to uncoated liposomes.

This review explores the medicinal properties of Eclipta alba and its phytoconstituents and reports their potential for developing new drugs, but presents no new research results.

This review discusses advances and challenges in skin tissue engineering, focusing on developing 3D constructs for functional skin substitutes, and reports no new clinical results.

The conclusion is that androgenetic alopecia and senescent alopecia have unique gene changes, suggesting different causes and potential treatments for these hair loss types.

This study found that ginger supplementation significantly improved persistent hypothyroid symptoms and may aid in weight and lipid profile management in hypothyroid patients with normal TSH levels.

This study found that overexpression of sPLA2-IIA in homozygous mice resulted in cyclic alopecia, a halt in hair follicle cycling, and impaired wound healing due to complete loss of hair follicle stem cells.

This review analyzes the research on production delivery strategies using n-vehicle, highlighting recent developments and suggesting areas for future study, but it reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that treating rice seeds with essential oil and Tithonia diversifolia powder increased yield and adaptation in NERICA varieties under rainy upland conditions, suggesting these treatments may improve rice production.
