This study identifies comedonal or cystic fibrofolliculomas as novel diagnostic clues for earlier recognition of Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome, potentially facilitating timely surveillance of associated systemic complications.

This case report describes a rare side effect of finasteride in a young male being treated for androgenic alopecia.

This study found that follistatin and activin interactions are important for hair follicle development and cycling in mice, suggesting that they may regulate processes involving BMP-2 and its antagonist.

This study observed two cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia developing on preexisting vitiligo, suggesting a potential causal link between the two conditions.

In this study, researchers observed temporary skin reactions at BCG vaccination sites following the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA vaccine in five patients, suggesting underreported occurrences.

In this study, eight patients with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets who share a specific VDR mutation showed improved clinical symptoms except alopecia after up to 11 years of treatment.

This study identified a novel missense MAFB variant in a family with some unaffected members, suggesting incomplete penetrance and the potential influence of modifier genes, epigenetic mechanisms, or environmental factors on MCTO phenotype.

This study found that topical application of the BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib improved wound healing and promoted hair follicle regeneration in a diabetic murine model.

In this study, no association was found between bacterial vaginosis and skin disorders in patients with autoimmune antibody positivity.

This study observed that the lower part of vibrissa hair roots in adult Wistar rats receives a richer blood supply and structural protection, compared to the upper part.

Tavaborole is a safe and effective toenail fungus treatment, with the 5% solution being the best option.

This study found that specific genes related to vascular endothelial growth factors are critical for feather maturity in certain chicken breeds, identifying key genetic markers that could enhance breeding efficiency.

This study in mutant mice found that Bmpr2 and Acvr2a are individually redundant, but together essential for normal hair follicle development, with their reduction causing rapid hair cycling and graying.

This literature review explored the potential therapeutic applications of bee venom, Ficus carica, and Geranium essential oil in treating skin conditions like vitiligo, melasma, and melanoma, concluding these natural products may offer anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antioxidant benefits for dermatological care, especially for diabetic patients.

This case report documents a young woman who experienced a visual field defect similar to those linked to vigabatrin use, despite treatment only with valproic acid and carbamazepine, suggestive of a possible metabolic vulnerability in certain patients with specific genetic backgrounds.

This study found that Activin B at 10 ng/mL may promote vibrissae follicle growth in mice by enhancing hair matrix cell proliferation and cell cycle progression via ERK signaling pathways.

Processed fat, SVF, and PRP are safe and effective for facial rejuvenation and hair growth.

This study found that basal cell carcinomas show strong expression of vitamin D receptors at both mRNA and protein levels, suggesting a potential role in tumor growth regulation.

This study found that loss of the folliculin protein delays transferrin receptor recycling, leading to iron deficiency and suggesting a role in the mechanisms of Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome.

This study found that cetaceans have adapted their fibroblast growth factors to assist in low bone density, hypoxia tolerance, and the development of rigid flippers, reflecting significant evolutionary changes for aquatic life.

CaBP1 and 2 are necessary for maintaining calcium currents and hearing in inner ear cells.

In this study, VEGF165 induced hair follicle stem cells to differentiate into vascular endothelial cells, potentially supporting angiogenesis and neovascularization, with the Notch signaling pathway affecting differentiation efficiency.

This study established a simple and accurate LC-MS method for quantifying vinflunine in Beagle dog plasma, supporting pharmacokinetic research in this context.

In this case report, a 25-year-old woman with VKHD experienced an unusual occurrence of vellus-like hair growth on her normally hairless palm, observed twice over two years, expanding the known integumentary manifestations of VKHD.

In this study, a spayed adult female dog with recurrent vaginitis and cystitis due to bone structures in the vaginal canal was successfully treated with manual removal and medication.

This review discusses recent insights into Birt–Hogg–Dube syndrome, including the functions of the FLCN gene and clinical recommendations for screening and treatment, but it reports no new experimental results.

In this case–control study, the researchers in Ukraine found no significant link between VDR rs2228570 polymorphism and decreased serum BDNF levels, though they observed a moderate correlation between serum BDNF and 25-OH Vitamin D levels in patients with thyroid disorders.
