This study found that a new method using enzymatic laundry powder effectively extracts DNA from hair shafts, showing promise for genome-wide DNA analyses.

This case report observed that a 20-year-old female with recurrent DVTs experienced reversible alopecia with various anticoagulants, except fondaparinux which allowed long-term treatment without this side effect.

This study describes the process of isolating and analyzing multipotent stem cells from mouse hair follicles for potential use in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

This study concluded that finasteride treatment did not adversely affect bone development or density in male rats, suggesting selective DHT deficiency is not harmful to the skeleton.

This study found that overexpression of R-spondin 3 in a mice model impaired hair morphogenesis and regeneration by reducing hair matrix progenitor cell proliferation, thus disrupting the Wnt pathway's regulation of stem cells.

This case series describes three siblings with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, highlighting variations in their clinical presentations.

In this study, constitutive expression of Del1 in mice did not affect wound healing but was associated with increased hair growth following anagen induction.

In this study, ob/ob mice were found to have a prolonged telogen hair cycle phase from 10 to 24 weeks, suggesting their potential as a model for studying telogen effluvium.

This study found that male pattern hair loss worsened significantly after stopping finasteride, revealing a "rebound effect" where terminal hair transformed into miniaturized hair over 30 months off the drug.

This review describes the evolution of treatments for relapsing multiple sclerosis, highlighting that while newer potent monoclonal agents can potentially achieve disease remission, they also pose moderate to severe adverse event risks that healthcare providers must understand.

In this study, AgK114 was found to be transiently induced in hamster epidermal keratinocytes following skin damage, suggesting its role in the recovery process after injury.

This study found that standardized scalp massages may help stabilize or regrow hair in individuals with androgenic alopecia, as perceived by the participants themselves.

This paper describes a protocol for isolating and culturing skin-derived precursors to potentially induce hair growth and regenerate hair follicles, but reports no new experimental findings.

In this case report, the authors describe a partial androgen insensitivity syndrome patient with a novel AR gene mutation, highlighting challenges in gender assignment decisions for infants with partial AIS.

In this study, a 33-year-old HIV-infected man experienced alopecia areata after beginning zidovudine therapy, which reversed upon discontinuation.

This study found that sebaceous glands in the skin are primarily renewed by their own stem cells during normal conditions, but after injury, they regenerate through stem cells from hair follicles, highlighting stem cell plasticity and regeneration capabilities.

In this study, one type of commercial culture medium supported expression of stem cell markers in hair follicle epithelial stem cells, but their differentiation potential and hair follicle-inducing ability declined over time.

This report of a 90-year-old girl with tinea capitis indicates that griseofulvin remains the main treatment, showing improvement after eight weeks of therapy.

This study reports the first familial case of alopecia linked to a novel homozygous variant in the DSP gene, which did not coincide with heart abnormalities despite prior associations.

In this study, the researchers observed that inducing and then withdrawing β-catenin expression in a bigenic mouse model caused reversible changes in skin morphology, indicating dependence on β-catenin signaling.

This study observed that mixed breed cows with alopecia, ill-thrift, and infertility had significant decreases in serum copper, zinc, calcium, inorganic phosphorus, and magnesium, alongside signs of anemia.

This study found that cows with alopecia, ill-thrift, and infertility exhibited significant decreases in serum copper, zinc, calcium, inorganic phosphorus, magnesium, and hematological measures, indicating moderate microcytic, hypochromic anemia.

This study suggests that coexisting LSS and TSPEAR variants might contribute to a complex phenotype of congenital hypotrichosis and ectodermal abnormalities in a child, and highlights the need for cautious interpretation of genotype-phenotype links and the potential value of broader genetic testing.

This review discusses the insights gained from single-cell RNA sequencing of fibroblasts in various cancers and wound healing, highlighting differences in gene expression and novel interactions.

In this study, researchers discovered that the MafB gene, which is important for macrophage differentiation, shows high expression in the pancreas and is influenced by sex steroids, with varied expression patterns in hamster tissues and during reproductive phases.

This study found that Plant Elicitor Peptides enhance root hair growth through a mechanism independent of their known receptors, with PROPEP2 playing a key role in this process by influencing gene expression related to root hair formation.

This study found that high TSPEAR expression in colorectal cancer was associated with poor prognosis and correlated with various tumor and immune-related factors.

This study found that elevated TSPEAR expression in colorectal cancer was associated with poor overall prognosis and correlated with tumor infiltrating immune cells, suggesting its potential as a predictive biomarker.

This case report discusses the clinical features and management of tinea capitis, highlighting its occurrence in adults and the continued preference for griseofulvin treatment.

This study found that repeatedly collecting hair follicles from individuals with fragile X syndrome is feasible for measuring FMR1 and FMRP levels in both home and office settings.
