A specific gene variant is linked to heart disease, increased heart muscle, curly hair, and thick skin on palms and soles.

In this report, a 19-year-old Japanese man experienced severe and prolonged urticarial reactions following treatment with diphenylcyclopropenone for alopecia universalis, emphasizing the need for caution with potent sensitizers.

This study found that individuals with heterozygous truncation-type variants in the *DSP* gene exhibit lower skin temperature and higher transepidermal water loss, with specific microscopic skin changes and pseudomonilethrix.

This study found that histidine decarboxylase is crucial for the hair-inducing ability of newborn mouse dermal cells, with its expression significantly decreasing in the first few days after birth.

This study found that while prolactin and DHEA-S levels were higher in women with hirsutism compared to controls, there was no significant correlation between second to fourth digit ratio and hormonal profiles.

This study explored the effects of DPP, a 15-PGDH inhibitor, on human follicle dermal papilla cells damaged by dihydrotestosterone and observed that DPP enhanced wound healing, reduced reactive oxygen species, and increased hair growth in ex vivo human hair follicle cultures.

This study observed that CDH3-related congenital hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy presents with childhood-onset progressive chorioretinal atrophy and universally thin and sparse scalp hair.

This article discusses how activating the hexosamine pathway may enhance skin homeostasis by increasing hyaluronic acid secretion and supporting hair follicle stem cell self-renewal, but reports no new results.

This symposium updated participants on the latest advances in understanding and managing hidradenitis suppurativa, emphasizing the need for individualized treatment plans and highlighting recent progress in therapies and epidemiology.

Diphencyprone treatment protocols could be simplified as no harm occurred despite not fully following them.

In this study, prenatal ultrasonography was found to be a valuable tool for screening ectodermal dysplasia during pregnancy, and a new EDA gene variant associated with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was identified, aiding in more accurate diagnoses and reproductive decision-making.

In this study, researchers observed that testicular 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency in an inbred Arab population in Israel leads to genital ambiguity at birth and progressive virilization after puberty.

This study in Hexi cashmere goats found that secondary follicle activity increases with time, and Hoxc13 expression varies significantly across different growth stages, suggesting a role in follicle activity.

This study mapped a spontaneous mouse hair mutation, "hague," to keratin genes on chromosome 15 but found no gene mutations in hague mice.

This study found that 11α-hydroxyprogesterone is a potent inhibitor of 11βHSD2 in vitro and may serve as a precursor to unique C11α-hydroxy steroids in prostate cancer tissue.

This study describes a Japanese family with monilethrix and found no clear genotype/phenotype correlation in cases with the E413K mutation in hHb6.

This article discusses the functions of the enzyme 17beta-HSD10, including its role in steroid metabolism and potential links to Alzheimer's disease, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study reports a case of a child with congenital skin fragility, alopecia, and cardiomyopathy due to compound heterozygous mutations in the DSP gene causing desmoplakin deficiency.

This study found that anionic HSES achieved high complexation efficiencies with various steroids, significantly enhancing their solubility, while specific β-cyclodextrin thioethers showed selective binding to testosterone and estradiol.

This review examines the role of cholesterol metabolism in coronavirus infections, discussing its potential as a target for antiviral strategies and a marker for monitoring infection status, but presents no new results.

This case report describes a 6.5-year-old girl with a balanced chromosome translocation involving chromosomes 1 and 6, linked to developmental speech delay and features suggestive of ectodermal dysplasia.

This study evaluated the potential toxicity of oral dihydroartemisinin in SD rats, finding that female rats experienced greater toxic effects than males, particularly at higher doses, but these effects were reversible after a 4-week recovery period.

This study found that stimulating the olfactory receptor OR2A4/7 with cyclohexyl salicylate promoted human hair growth and increased progeny of hair follicle epithelial stem cells in an ex vivo setting.

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

Adalimumab significantly improves quality of life for patients with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa.

This case study reports a rare instance of RC11 associated with precocious puberty, severe hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes, suggesting a possible link to 11q-syndrome.

This study investigated the effects of HDDPiW-jSB solution on chemotherapy-induced alopecia in a rat model and found that the solution improved hair follicle health markers and reduced cell apoptosis, especially when applied twice weekly, while appearing safe for skin application.
