This review identifies genetic mutations associated with congenital hair loss disorders in Japanese populations, particularly highlighting common LIPH gene mutations linked to woolly hair/hypotrichosis, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that depleting HIF-P4H-2 in FoxD1-lineage cells in mice led to disrupted hair follicle development, resulting in truncal alopecia but normal cranial hair, suggesting its crucial role in hair homeostasis.

This study explains that congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency presents as a continuous phenotype and involves symptoms ranging from virilization to accelerated growth in children, with diagnosis relying on clinical, biochemical, and genetic evaluation.

This case report describes a 40-year-old woman with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome diagnosed with multiple chromophobe renal cell carcinomas, highlighting the importance of recognizing associated dermatologic lesions for early intervention.

HEM-13HDC, a mix of 8 herbal extracts, helps hair grow and affects hair growth at a molecular level.

This report describes a child and his father with hereditary hypotrichosis simplex, an uncommon isolated form of hair loss, with no other ectodermal or systemic abnormalities noted.

In this case report, a newborn with Conradi-Hünermann-Happle syndrome was diagnosed through early skin biopsy, which revealed unique histopathological features, including dystrophic calcifications, confirming a pathogenic variant in the EBP gene.

This review discusses the evaluation, clinical presentation, and cutaneous manifestations of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, focusing on differential diagnosis challenges with polycystic ovary syndrome, and reports no new clinical findings.

This report presents a rare case of suspected 3β HSD deficiency in an adult female with symptoms like male pattern hair loss and low testosterone, suggesting a non-classical presentation.

This review discusses the clinical features, genetics, and treatment of 21-hydroxylase deficiency, a common type of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and reports no new research findings.

This study found that SHJH hr mice, with a Hairless gene mutation, exhibit accelerated skin aging potentially due to poor antioxidative protection, highlighting the Hr gene's role in skin aging.

This study found that the heat shock cognate protein Hsc70 was differentially expressed by dihydrotestosterone treatment in SV40-transformed dermal papilla cells, suggesting its involvement in androgen action on these cells.

This study found that the hairless gene in mice has a more extensive role in development than previously thought, as indicated by its expression in various tissues and associated abnormalities in hr/hr mutants.

This study found that the new HCC additive enhances the permeation of pigments and active ingredients into hair, suggesting potential use in developing functional cosmetic hair products.

This review discusses drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms, highlighting clinical features, potential viral reactivations, and treatment, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study reports that a new DART-HRMS method can effectively analyze intact hair for drug use timelines, with cocaine detection aligning with forensic standards and identifying multiple drugs from high-resolution data.

In this study, researchers suggest that digital microscopy using visible light could offer a more objective approach to diagnosing hirsutism by quantifying terminal hair, with future research needed to assess its usefulness in women with the condition.

This study concluded that the hairless protein interacts with the vitamin D receptor to repress transcription crucial for hair cycling, employing multiple protein interfaces and modulating chromatin structure.

The document lists dermatology job ads across the U.S. with good pay and benefits.

In this report, a 54-year-old woman with familial dyskeratotic comedones showed slight improvement in skin lesions after topical retinoids and urea cream. This source also describes the first dermoscopic findings for this condition and reviews 21 previous cases.

Hairless protein helps control hair growth by regulating vitamin D receptor activity.

Direct-to-consumer teledermatology is not effectively reaching underserved populations due to language, technology, and insurance barriers.

This study reported a case of hereditary vitamin D–resistant rickets caused by a single heterozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, showing dominant-negative effects and reduced response to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3.

Haloperidol decanoate can cause alopecia areata.

This study reports that 11β-HSD1 activity in human skin increases with age and photoexposure, potentially contributing to skin aging and the effects of glucocorticoids.

This symposium updated participants on the latest advances in understanding and managing hidradenitis suppurativa, emphasizing the need for individualized treatment plans and highlighting recent progress in therapies and epidemiology.

Hair diameter diversity could improve androgenetic alopecia assessment and treatment planning.

This study found that in a mouse model of Focal Dermal Hypoplasia, treatment with lithium carbonate improved skin disease symptoms compared to controls, though disease severity varied and posed interpretation challenges.

This study found that the 15-PGDH inhibitor DPP improved endothelial function in hair-related cells exposed to DHT by reducing oxidative stress and enhancing angiogenic capacity.
