This study observed that congenital hypotrichosis in crossbred cattle is linked to short, curly, dilute-color hair, potentially due to color dilution mutants in European breeds.

This study found that a young male Maine Coon cat with a tortoiseshell coat, which typically indicates unusual sex chromosomes, was fertile, carrying both XX and XY cell lines. The researchers recommend genetic testing for tri-colored male cats before breeding decisions.

This case study highlights the late diagnosis of complete androgen insensitivity syndrome in a 31-year-old woman, emphasizing the psychological impact and need for individualized treatment guidelines.

This study demonstrates that the trichohyalin gene is located at chromosomal region 1q21, where several other genes related to epidermal differentiation also map.

This study found that brindled mottled mice, a model of Kinky hair syndrome, exhibited abnormal development of catecholamine neurons, with increased TH-immunoreactive neurons and altered neurochemical profiles compared to controls.

This study found that disrupted cholesterol homeostasis in scalp samples from cicatricial alopecia patients hinders hair regrowth by affecting hair follicle stem cell markers, with resulting effects confirmed in vitro and in animal models.

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 found that while the CLASI is generally useful for assessing disease activity and damage in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, it may not accurately reflect all subtypes, indicating a need for revision.

This case report describes a 36-year-old woman with hidradenitis suppurativa whose condition progressed to rapidly fatal squamous cell carcinoma, highlighting the potential for aggressive tumor development linked to specific protein markers.

This study identified a new type II cytokeratin, named K6hf, exclusively expressed in the companion layer of the human hair follicle, distinguishing it from other keratins and suggesting a unique biochemical role.

This article reviews the properties, uses, and toxic effects of eleven unsaturated halogenated hydrocarbons, highlighting the risks associated with compounds like dichloroacetylene, allyl chloride, and vinyl chloride, and reports no new experimental findings.

This study developed and evaluated a photographic scale to assess CCCA pattern and severity in African American women, finding it reproducible when used by investigators and participants.

This study found that hair cortisol concentrations can be reliably measured in healthy children and generally increase with age, unaffected by gender, puberty, or hair care practices.

This article describes Amy Senior's evolving views on the Joint Council for Cosmetic Practitioners and reports no new research findings.

This study emphasizes the genetic component of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, highlighting an atypical case involving an adolescent male within an African-American family.

This study found that the absence of Hes1 in hair follicles delays secondary hair germ activation and shortens the anagen phase, impacting HFSC self-renewal and long-term hair regeneration.

In this study, nail matrix pathology in a patient with Cronkhite–Canada Syndrome revealed matrix hypergranulosis, suggesting that an inflammatory process may play a key role in the condition's pathogenesis.

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.

This case report identifies a previously undocumented nonsense mutation in DCAF17 in a Chinese patient with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, inherited from consanguineous parents.

This review discusses the hedgehog signaling pathway's role in cutaneous tumors and hematological disorders, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this laboratory study, researchers developed and tested two in vitro models to simulate atopic dermatitis using HaCaT cells, finding that azithromycin displayed epithelial-strengthening properties in one model, potentially offering insights for future research on skin disease interventions.

This case report emphasizes the importance of recognizing non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia as a cause of hyperandrogenism and the need for genetic counseling given potential familial implications.

This study found that the reticulocyte hemoglobin content (CHr) most frequently indicated iron deficiency in female patients with diffuse non-scarring hair loss.

This chapter highlights various commercial and open-source light sheet microscopy systems, detailing their rapid evolution and integration of multimodal technologies, with a focus on the ZEISS Lightsheet Z.1 system's advanced design for direct imaging and specialized sample mounting.

This article suggests that testosterone therapy might be considered if other treatments fail, but emphasizes discussing potential risks and benefits with patients before prescribing.

This report documents a novel alanine to valine substitution in the GJB2 gene in a Japanese girl with severe keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome, suggesting a potential link to her severe recurrent infections and immunodeficiency.
