In this study, mouse models with EGFR deficiency showed that disrupted hair follicle cycling leads to increased mast cell numbers and inflammation, suggesting EGFR's role in managing hair cycle transitions and preventing folliculitis.

This study reports that mutations in human L-PGDS affect the entrance and exit of ligands in its binding cavity, suggesting these residues play a role in ligand interaction processes.

This study observed that Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) can inhibit phosphorylation of STAT1 and reduce a specific subset of immune cells in vitro and ex vivo, suggesting a potential role in maintaining immune privilege in alopecia areata.

This case report describes the use of CO2 laser surgery to treat chronic pododermatitis and pseudopads in an 8-year-old obese dog, resulting in complete healing within four weeks after previous treatments provided only temporary relief.

This case report identifies an association between trichothiodystrophy and a urologic malformation with primary hypercalciuria, adding to the spectrum of TTD-related abnormalities.

This study found that vitamin C deficiency in SMP-30/GNL-KO mice affected gene expression related to hair growth and cell growth, resulting in delayed hair growth compared to those with adequate vitamin C.

This study mapped the curly mutation in mice to a specific region on chromosome 11, identifying it as a candidate model for studying human genetic hair disorders.

In diabetic mice, this study reported that the multifunctional hydrogel CPGel achieved complete wound closure in 21 days, showing promise in improving chronic wound healing through antibacterial, antioxidative, and tissue regeneration properties.

This small study reports that a 6-group geometric classification method is more reliable for classifying human hair curl, although a digital system could further reduce errors.

This case report suggests that in African-American patients, the histology of Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia may resemble lichen planopilaris, indicating a potential diagnostic challenge.

This study found that ornithine decarboxylase expression is linked to cell proliferation and differentiation in hair follicle development and growth.

In this study, a Chinese Han family with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets was found to have a homozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, and the affected individual uniquely responded well to treatment with oral calcium and low-dose calcitriol.

This research reports that the polyG fragment within the Hoxc13 protein alters its gene regulatory functions, which could have influenced mammalian hair evolution by affecting pathways related to hair follicle development.

The study found that males with androgenetic alopecia had a significantly lower left-hand 2D:4D digit ratio compared to healthy controls, suggesting this ratio may help estimate future AGA risk.

This case report describes a patient with Cronkhite–Canada syndrome, where immunosuppression and nutritional support led to disease remission.

This case report suggests that immune responses, along with hair traction, may play a role in the etiology of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.

This case report describes a 32-year-old woman with a history of undifferentiated connective tissue disease who presented with cardiogenic shock, and endomyocardial biopsy revealed giant cell myocarditis, possibly indicating an association with her autoimmune condition.

This article discusses connubial contact dermatitis, emphasizing its frequent misrecognition and the importance of identifying and eliminating the underlying causes for effective treatment.

This case report illustrates how SNP array testing helped identify a DCAF17 mutation linked to Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome in consanguineous Qatari siblings with shared features including alopecia and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

This study found that silencing the circular RNA circNlgn in mice reduced doxorubicin-induced cardiofibrosis and cardiomyocyte apoptosis, suggesting potential therapeutic strategies for minimizing heart-related side effects in cancer treatment.

In this study, silencing P-cadherin in human scalp hair follicles reduced melanogenesis and associated protein expression, suggesting P-cadherin is crucial for normal hair pigmentation via GSK3β-mediated Wnt signaling.

This study observed that patients with CYLD mutations frequently experienced severe, painful tumors beyond the head and neck, impacting their quality of life, with hormonal factors possibly contributing to tumor development.

This review outlines computational strategies, including chemogenomics and drug repositioning, for coronavirus drug discovery and reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight the advantages of these methods in rapidly identifying therapeutic candidates.

This study investigated human hair follicle bulge cells and found that those with reduced CD200 expression exhibited enhanced hair regenerative capability, refining the functional understanding of bulge cell heterogeneity and providing insights for optimizing bulge cell–based hair regeneration techniques.

This study found that reported stress and hair growth changes related to facial/body hair excess or scalp hair loss differ among ethnic gender minority groups, with black and other ethnic respondents experiencing more stress compared to Caucasians, particularly in relation to facial/body hair excess.

In this retrospective case series, therapeutic responses to immunomodulatory and incretin-based therapies for Dercum's disease showed considerable individual variation, suggesting these treatments might be exploratory options when surgery isn't feasible, though further controlled studies are needed for definitive conclusions.

Permanent hair loss after a stem cell transplant can be a sign of chronic immune system attack on the scalp.

This study highlights the phenotypic variability in 5 patients with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome carrying the c.436delC mutation, suggesting a broader range of clinical presentations than previously recognized.

The study demonstrated that both DKK2 and SOSTDC1 are necessary for normal timing of the first catagen phase in mice hair growth cycles.

This study found that systematic review and protocol topics in the Cochrane Database for skin conditions are partly aligned with disease burden metrics, with some conditions overrepresented and others underrepresented compared to their disability-adjusted life years.
