This study described an Appenzeller Mountain Dog with clinical signs of an NSDHL defect, discovering a large heterozygous de novo deletion spanning the entire NSDHL gene through whole genome sequencing.

This study identified key lipid differences between black and white hair in individuals with premature greying, highlighting vitamin D3 as a potential target for further research in understanding this condition.

This review discusses fungal skin diseases in goats, highlighting rare vitamin E-, selenium-, and zinc-responsive dermatoses without reporting new clinical results.

This case report describes a rare occurrence of primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PCDLBCL-NOS) on the scalp of a 45-year-old female, highlighting its unusual presentation and the initial treatment response but also noting severe subsequent complications.

This article describes the PHAT technique for lip and facial rejuvenation but reports no new clinical findings; the technique aims to improve skin quality and enhance surgical outcomes.

This study found that inhibiting AP1 transcription factor activity in the suprabasal epidermis of mice alters keratinocyte gene expression, reducing barrier integrity and mimicking human keratoderma.

This study found that epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors can induce erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp, typically appearing sooner and affecting the scalp more extensively compared to other triggers.

This case report describes two patients with a likely new type of pachyonychia, characterized by nail thickening and severe generalized hypotrichosis, possibly linked to a mutation in a hard keratin.

This study found that COVID-19 is associated with various skin rashes, which can indicate the severity of the disease, with chilblain-like lesions linked to milder cases and acro-ischaemia to more severe outcomes.

In this case study, the researchers reported a rare incidence of bilateral hyperpigmented macules on a patient's lower legs, possibly due to cyclophosphamide, suggesting that this chemotherapy drug may directly stimulate hair follicles to cause skin discoloration.

In this study, the researchers reported that chloramphenicol-loaded liposomes, particularly those incorporating deoxycholic acid, enhanced follicular uptake and showed strong antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, offering potential for treating MRSA-infected skin conditions with good skin biocompatibility and minimal toxicity.

This case study identified the condition as Monilethrix in a 17-year-old female, characterized by a beaded hair appearance and linked to a genetic cause.

In this study, researchers highlighted that while hair lipids are crucial for hair health and protection, surfactants in shampoos and conditioners can partially remove these lipids, potentially affecting hair structure, though the exact mechanisms remain poorly understood and require further investigation.

In this study, researchers reported that applying topical 7.5% dapsone led to a significant decline in lichen planopilaris activity within a month and a sustained two-year remission in a patient intolerant to other treatments, suggesting dapsone as a promising alternative for managing this condition.

This case report describes an 18-month-old male with ichthyosis follicularis alopecia photophobia syndrome who experienced transient improvement in skin symptoms after oral isotretinoin treatment.

The document describes various skin conditions, their features, and treatments but lacks detailed study size information.

In this case report, researchers detailed a 22-year-old Turkish woman diagnosed with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis (ARWH/H), linked to a mutation in the LIPH gene, resulting in sparse, poorly growing, curly hair, highlighting the need for genetic consideration in similar hair conditions.

This report describes a rare case of leprotic alopecia in a 26-year-old female, secondary to paucibacillary leprosy, with a clinical picture mimicking alopecia areata-vitiligo overlap syndrome.

This study found that mutations affecting hair keratin expression on Chromosome 15 in mice may cause altered hair and skin features similar to other known mouse mutations.

This article discusses Graham-Little Piccardi Lassueur Syndrome, a rare variant of Lichen planopilaris, but reports no clinical findings or results.

This study observed that transgenic mice expressing keratin K10 under bovine K6beta control developed severe oral abnormalities, suggesting keratin composition changes can affect the physiology of epithelial cells, especially in the oral mucosa.

This study identified a novel bi-allelic missense variant in the DSC3 gene linked to severe Hypotrichosis with Recurrent Skin Vesicles in a Saudi child, supporting its role in the condition.

This case report describes a 5-year-old girl with atrichia with papular lesions, whose diagnosis was confirmed through genetic testing identifying mutations in the hairless gene.

This case report details a 2-year-old girl who developed hypertrichosis on areas of her skin affected by multiple insect bites and subsequent scratching, resulting in unusual hair growth.

This case report describes a 7-year-old female from the Middle East with monilethrix, highlighting the disease's rarity in this population, characterized by brittle, sparse hair and keratosis pilaris.

This case report describes a 7-month-old girl diagnosed with acrodermatitis enteropathica, linked to low zinc levels, whose skin lesions improved significantly after zinc supplementation.

Trichodysplasia spinulosa can occur after a heart transplant due to immunosuppressive drugs.

Cathepsin L deficiency causes hair and skin issues in mice.

This study found that erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp is often misdiagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma, highlighting the importance of biopsy for accurate diagnosis.
