This case report describes a six-year-old child with congenital biotinidase deficiency whose symptoms, including breathlessness, alopecia, and hearing loss, were reversed with biotin supplementation.

This study of photobiomodulation therapy devices for androgenetic alopecia found variable improvements in hair grade across different skin types and devices, suggesting a need for larger, more comprehensive trials.

This study found that photobiomodulation enhanced hair regeneration in injured dermis of mice, likely through increased migration and exosome secretion of dermal papilla cells via the Akt/GSK-3β/β-catenin pathway.

This study found that diphenylcyclopropenone (DPCP) was more effective and better tolerated than dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) in promoting hair regrowth in patients with alopecia areata.

This study found that the serine protease BSSP is strongly expressed in mouse skin during carcinogenesis and is upregulated independently of c-Fos and unaffected by glucocorticoids.

This study found that patients with vitiligo had significantly lower serum BDNF levels compared to healthy controls, which may relate to the condition's etiology or its association with psychiatric disorders.

Avoiding dyed wigs and clothing improved severe allergic reactions in a woman treated with diphencyprone.

This study found that Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) play a crucial role in dermal papilla cells' ability to induce hair follicle stem cell differentiation, and that androgens may impair this process by downregulating BMPs.

This study found that Sox2 and BMP signaling may be key regulators of pigmentation and melanocyte migration, as suggested by experiments in mice, human biopsies, and cell co-cultures.

In this study, photobiomodulation therapy applied twice weekly for 12 weeks significantly improved hair regrowth and quality of life in alopecia areata patients, with no noted side effects.

This study found that forming inclusion complexes of DPCP with HPβCD using the 3D ground mixture method enhances its anti-inflammatory activity at lower doses compared to complexes with β-CD.

This commentary discusses the public health implications of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and provides no new research results.

This study suggests that biotin therapy may be beneficial for individuals with partial biotinidase deficiency, as some developed symptoms later, which resolved with treatment.

This case report describes a rare occurrence of ectodermal dysplasia features in a 14-year-old with MBTPS1 gene variants, expanding the known spectrum of related disorders.

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

This case report documents a 63-year-old with Birt-Hogg-Dubé Syndrome who developed choroidal melanoma alongside multiple lid folliculomas, marking the first known association of these conditions.

This study found that human dermal papilla cells are embedded in a basement membrane-like extracellular matrix, which is essential for their aggregation and function, as supported by evidence that Matrigel enhances dermal papilla cohesion and gene expression compared to collagen I, which promotes cell dispersion.

This abstract highlights that preliminary results from the REDUCE trial indicate dutasteride may lower prostate cancer incidence by 23% in older men compared to a placebo.

This research suggests that the enzyme Phospholipase D from E. coli is a strong candidate as the underlying cause of benign prostatic hyperplasia, potentially mediated by its conversion to lysophosphatidic acid in the prostate.

In this study, researchers identified compound heterozygous variants in the MBTPS1 gene associated with ectodermal dysplasia features in a 14-year-old female, broadening the known disorder spectrum linked to these genetic mutations.

This study provides evidence that ILC1-like cells can induce alopecia areata in previously healthy human hair follicles, challenging the view that it is solely an autoantigen-dependent autoimmune disease.

This study found that women with idiopathic hyperandrogenemia had higher urinary Bisphenol A levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential role of this chemical in the condition.

This study suggests that IGFBP-2 may play a role in basal cell carcinoma development by mediating epidermal progenitor cell expansion in hair follicles with activated Shh signaling.

The mutation causes hairless mice due to mislocalized and dysfunctional HR protein.

The researchers reported that disrupting the RPGRIP1L gene in mice impaired desmosome function, causing skin blistering, and their findings suggest that PKCβII inhibition could help treat pemphigus.

This study found that 29.6% of patients seeking treatment for hair loss meet the criteria for hair-related body dysmorphic disorder, significantly higher than in general dermatology patients.

This study found that combining bone marrow aspirate concentrate with platelet-rich plasma significantly improved wound healing in mice compared to other treatments.

The testes significantly contribute to vitamin D metabolism and may affect male reproductive health and conditions like hair loss.

This review discusses the role of Prostaglandin D2 and its synthase in androgenetic alopecia but reports no new clinical findings, suggesting pathways for future therapeutic development.

This study found that 15-dPGJ2 promotes apoptosis in human follicular keratinocytes, suggesting its potential role in developing hair loss prevention treatments through DP2 antagonism.
