This case report describes a rare instance of pediatric idiopathic hypoparathyroidism in an 11-year-old Saudi boy, characterized by extensive cranial calcifications beyond the basal ganglia, with no other neurological abnormalities.

This study focuses on improving the detection and characterization of an enzyme in guinea pig hair follicles that converts arginine to citrulline, highlighting challenges with assay sensitivity and reproducibility.

This study found that low concentrations of CBD promoted hair follicle growth, while higher concentrations induced hair follicle regression and increased cell death in an experimental setting.

This study suggests that hair loss was a metabolic adaptation allowing hominids to evolve larger brains by alleviating dietary restrictions on essential amino acids for hair and brain development.

In their research, Yucel and colleagues found that CaV1.2 is expressed in hair follicle stem cells, facilitating anagen re-entry in a way not dependent on calcium flux.

In this case study, a 21-year-old man with alopecia universalis experienced temporary hair regrowth after treatment with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 following a tibial fracture.

This article reviews the role of vitamin D and its metabolites in regulating calcium homeostasis and highlights their effects on the intestine, kidney, bone, and parathyroid gland, without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, the pharmacological action of dobutamine on rabbit retinae was found to be distinct from that of other dopamine analogs like apomorphine and N-methyl-dopamine.

This study found that vitamin D, calcium, iron, and ferritin significantly correlate with alopecia in both genders, while zinc, B12, folic acid, and TSH correlate only in males.

This study found that a high-fat diet in rats led to obesity, insulin resistance, and structural changes in the parotid salivary glands, with associated negative impacts on general health.

This review discusses how aging affects hair follicle stem cells and their environment, contributing to hair loss, and explores strategies to promote hair regrowth, but reports no new results.

This study found that serum bone metabolic markers with mild changes are interdependently related to traditional Chinese medicine syndromes in patients with chronic kidney disease-related bone disorders.

The conclusion is that effectively treating hair disorders is difficult due to the complex factors affecting hair growth and more research is needed to improve treatments.

This study measured elemental content in anagen hair fibers of Caucasian people aged 10-69 and found average levels of sulfur, zinc, calcium, and chlorine, establishing a baseline for future research.

This study found that sodium and potassium levels in scalp hair might be sex-specific indicators, while females had slightly higher copper and iron levels, particularly during the reproductive period.

Nonsurgical facial treatments are becoming more popular due to their natural-looking results and minimal invasiveness.

In this study, an injectable alginate hydrogel with Fibronectin3 was developed, demonstrating high biocompatibility and ability to enhance wound healing in mice, suggesting promise for clinical application in treating irregular wounds.

This study reviews the complex keratinization process in the epidermis, detailing how various factors regulate keratinocyte differentiation and emphasizing the importance of understanding this process for the pathogenesis of skin disorders like ichthyoses and psoriasis.

This review explores platelet-rich plasma's role in wound healing and discusses its potential as a broadly applicable therapeutic option, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses current knowledge about the TRPV3 ion channel's role in skin functions and diseases, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target for pain and itch, though suitable ligands are limited.

This study demonstrated that autologous mesenchymal stem cells from hair follicles, when combined with a novel gelatin-based hydrogel, showed promising osteogenic potential and could offer a non-invasive alternative for bone regeneration.

This study found that a combination of oral compounds improved metabolic activity, cell viability, and proliferation in hair follicular keratinocytes, with L-cystine playing a key role in protection against oxidative stress.

This case report describes a twenty-year-old woman misdiagnosed with a sebaceous cyst that was actually pilomatrixoma, a benign skin lesion from hair matrix cells, confirmed by histopathology after excision.

This study suggests that hair analysis detecting trace elements like copper and iron may help in screening for diseases such as hepatocellular carcinoma and osteoporosis, due to altered element concentrations in patients.

This article reports a rare case of squamous cell carcinoma with miliary calcification in a cutaneous horn, suggesting possible involvement of calcium-binding proteins in this unique presentation.

This study found that cells isolated from human scalp hair follicles proliferated well in a specific culture medium and possessed keratins characteristic of hair-forming cells.

This study proposed a hypothesis for cutaneous calcinosis, suggesting that feeding DHT and subsequent epilation lead to ATP release and calcium orthophosphate formation, initiating calcification in rats.

This study found that patients with seborrheic dermatitis were more likely to have severe vitamin D deficiency compared to healthy controls.

This study found that adding keratin to a collagen hydrogel improved keratinocyte differentiation compared to a pure collagen hydrogel, particularly when calcium was also present in the media.

This meta-analysis reported no significant improvement in muscle strength or mobility with glucocorticoid treatment for progressive muscular dystrophy but observed an increase in adverse effects like acne and emotional irritability.
