The researchers reported that inhibiting 11β-HSD1 activity in human dermal papilla cells may reduce the negative effects of glucocorticoids on hair growth, suggesting potential treatment for stress-related hair loss.

This study found that eyebrow follicles, as opposed to buccal swabs or nails, are the most reliable tissue for post-HSCT germline genetic testing due to lower donor DNA contamination.

This study identified three new mutations in the VDR ligand-binding domain that may cause dysfunction, and noted that oral calcium and calcidol treatment was effective, but only one patient experienced hair growth.

This study found that BMP-2 activates Dlx3 gene transcription in murine keratinocytes by binding with Smad1/Smad4, suggesting a mechanism for BMP signaling's role in skin and hair follicle regulation.

This article discusses how DNA-based phenotyping is used by police to create visual profiles of suspects from crime scene samples, but reports no new research findings.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome had significantly higher serum lactate dehydrogenase levels and lower levels of cortisol, dopamine, zinc, and vitamin D3 compared to healthy controls.

This study observed that interferon β secreted by dermal papilla cells may negatively regulate the growth of outer root sheath cells in hair follicles.

This study observed that cultured dermal papilla cells showed distinct functional properties from dermal fibroblasts, including lower proliferation rates, higher adhesion to collagen type IV, and different cell-matrix interactions.

This report describes a rare case of epidermolysis bullosa acquisita in a child developing during therapy with squaric acid dibutyl ester for alopecia areata, suggesting a possible link between the medication and disease onset.

This study describes a patient with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets (HVDRR) who, despite having a truncated vitamin D receptor, did not exhibit typical hair or skin abnormalities, suggesting possible compensation via interactions with other proteins.

This study found that dermoscopy can be a useful tool for diagnosing androgenetic alopecia, particularly in determining hair diameter diversity as an essential feature in Asian populations.

This study found that delmadinone acetate and finasteride caused a reversible suppression of prostate gland activity in male dogs, with delmadinone acetate also temporarily altering epididymal sperm maturation.

This chapter discusses the molecular biology of the vitamin D receptor in gene transcription and reports no new results; it highlights recent findings on receptor activity independent of its usual ligand.

Diphencyprone treatment protocols could be simplified as no harm occurred despite not fully following them.

This report describes siblings with vitamin D-dependent rickets type 2, characterized by growth retardation, alopecia totalis, and low 25(OH)D3 levels, highlighting its autosomal recessive pattern and distinction from other rickets types.

Biopsies matched initial diagnoses in 76.6% of black women with alopecia and led to treatment changes in 44% of cases.

This study found that HBV infection altered steroid metabolism in male mice, significantly increasing levels of dehydroepiandrosterone and reducing dihydrotestosterone, which may suppress viral replication by affecting HBV promoter activity.

This study found that the administration of the mutant BRAF inhibitor dabrafenib in patients with metastatic melanoma was associated with various skin lesions, including keratinocytic proliferation that sometimes showed low-grade malignancy features.

This study concludes that the Greek version of the Dysmorphic Concern Questionnaire is a reliable and valid tool for assessing body dysmorphic disorder-related concerns in both research and clinical settings.

This article reviews the definitions, opportunities, advantages, and limitations of dental pulp stem cells and stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, reporting no new clinical results.

This study reports an increased frequency of the DI genotype of the ACE gene polymorphism among women with PCOS, notably in those with hyperandrogenism, and an association of the II genotype with insulin resistance.

In this study, researchers used a UV-Vis Spectrophotometer to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze Dutasteride residues in human plasma, achieving a total recovery rate of 64.992%, and determined that the BTB reagent effectively selected compounds not analyzed in their research.

Deoxyshikonin from Arnebiae Radix helps hair grow by activating a specific cell pathway.

This study found that the protein OsUEV1B is essential for maintaining phosphate balance in rice, with Pi deficiency leading to its inhibition and causing overaccumulation of phosphate in mutants.

In this case report, a 22-year-old female was diagnosed with follicular Dowling-Degos disease based on clinical and histological findings, with symptoms including skin lesions confined to hair follicles. The report emphasizes the importance of differentiating this rare variant from similar conditions for proper management.

This source describes the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery's mission to set standards and evaluate skills in hair restoration surgery, but does not report any specific study results.

This study found that female patients in Finnish specialized health care with a history of doping use exhibited high rates of psychiatric and substance use disorder morbidity, with less than half of those using anabolic androgenic steroids showing atypical red blood cell parameters.

This report describes two South Australian Poll Hereford calves with a syndrome of congenital dyserythropoietic anaemia, dyskeratosis, and progressive alopecia, observing specific blood and bone marrow abnormalities.

This study reports that a lower 2D:4D finger length ratio is significantly associated with higher disease activity and reduced spinal mobility in females with ankylosing spondylitis, but not in males.
