A genetic mutation caused severe rickets and alopecia in an Indian patient, but high-dose calcium and phosphate treatment improved their condition.

This study suggests that FGF-9 treatment may improve cardiac function by reducing vascular apoptosis and enhancing angiogenesis in infarcted hearts of both nondiabetic and diabetic mice.

This study found a relatively low prevalence of cutaneous reactions in chronic hepatitis C patients treated with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin, with reactions correlated to age and treatment duration.

This study found that the INSR His1058 C/T SNP does not increase the risk of developing PCOS among Kashmiri women.

2h-ICPR can help screen for insulin antibodies in type 2 diabetes patients.

In this study, researchers found that a specific genetic variant in the INSR gene is linked to severe insulin resistance and hyperandrogenemia in type A insulin resistance syndrome, suggesting the benefit of exon sequencing for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

In this study, researchers found that male and female APCHi mice exposed to ionizing radiation showed near-normal lipid and metabolite levels, suggesting activated protein C may offer some protective effects against radiation-induced damage affecting organ systems.

This study found that a combination of Ficus religiosa and Morus alba extracts promoted hair growth and Hair Follicle regeneration in a mouse model of hair loss by inducing the anagen phase and upregulating stem cell-associated genes.

This study found that Camellia oleifera leaf extracts, especially the 50% ethanolic extract, have significant antioxidant activity and may offer promising bioactive compounds for cosmetic and pharmaceutical uses.

This study suggests that dual inhibition of P-cadherin and c-Met could be an effective treatment strategy for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma by targeting resistant tumor cells.

In a study conducted on mice, researchers observed that exposure to ionizing radiation led to significant metabolic imbalances, including dyslipidemia and disruptions in amino acid metabolism, with activated protein C providing partial protection by normalizing certain plasma metabolites and lipids.

In this case report, a novel heterozygous mutation in the insulin receptor gene was identified in an adolescent girl with type A insulin resistance syndrome, characterized by excessive hair growth and skin changes, and her mother.

This abstract discusses the dermatological symptoms associated with hepatitis C virus infections but reports no new research findings.

This article reviews the use of spironolactone in dermatology for conditions like female acne, suggesting it may reduce antibiotic and isotretinoin use, and stresses its long-term safety.

In this study with cultured C_57BL/6J mouse hair follicles, ginseng extract at a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml was reported to best promote hair growth.

This study found that mice with a mutant CDP/Cux protein lacking the homeodomain showed severely impaired growth, high postnatal mortality, and reduced fertility, highlighting CDP/Cux's role in developmental regulation.

This study established a new mouse model for TCE-induced skin sensitization and reported that proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IFN-γ, and IL-2 significantly contribute to this sensitization process.

This study reported two cases of alopecia universalis triggered by PEG-interferon and ribavirin therapy for chronic hepatitis C, with hair regrowth observed after therapy completion or withdrawal.

In this case study, hypertrichosis in a patient with hemophilia and hepatitis C may have been induced by IFN-alpha treatment, despite the drug usually causing hair loss.

This study found that topical ginsenoside Rg1 may protect skin from UVB-induced damage in mice by reducing pathological changes and modulating cytokine mRNA expression associated with inflammation and immune response.

This report discusses a 22-year-old patient with MELAS syndrome carrying the m.10158T>C mutation, and highlights the need for extensive genetic testing when initial hot-spot mutation tests are negative.

This report describes a case of alopecia universalis in a woman with hepatitis C linked to pegylated interferon alfa-2b and ribavirin therapy, with hair regrowth observed one year after discontinuation.

This study found that chronic administration of finasteride affected the isotopic composition of testosterone and nandrolone metabolites, impacting the drug-testing outcomes in athletic contexts.

This article discusses the impact of the tabby mutation on secondary vibrissae and hair follicle patterns in mice and reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that finasteride use is not significantly associated with a reduced risk of advanced hepatic fibrosis or inflammation in HCV-positive males, with ethnically-divergent findings for methadone requiring further investigation.

This case study suggests that obstructive sleep apnea syndrome may be hereditary in patients with connective tissue disorders due to a variant in the COL1A2 gene.

This case report describes a 33-year-old Kashmiri woman with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome who has a rare DCAF17 gene mutation, c.321+1G>A, providing further evidence for its role in the genetic basis of this neuroendocrine disorder.

In this study, oral administration of ginsenoside Rf from Panax ginseng promoted hair regrowth and increased hair thickness in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia by enhancing androgen receptor degradation, highlighting its potential for cosmetic and functional food applications.

In this study, the synthesis and testing of new pyrroloquinoline derivatives identified compound 7p, which showed low micromolar cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 and HeLa cells, highlighting its potential for development into a potent anticancer agent.

This study in women aged 28-38 after their first cesarean delivery found higher levels of inflammatory markers and metabolic disturbances, including elevated BMI and blood sugar, which may contribute to increased postpartum hair loss compared to healthy controls.
