This study found no significant differences in lectinhistochemical characteristics of the dorsal skin epidermis between hypotrichotic WBN/Ila-Ht rats and Wistar rats, except for varying lectin binding intensity.

In this case report, a 9-year-old boy with diffuse alopecia areata showed improvement with topical diphencyprone immunotherapy, suggesting it as a safe and effective treatment option in pediatric cases of alopecia areata resistant to other therapies.

This study found no consistent differences between the posterior vertex and occipital region for hair hormone analysis, but noted significant variations in specific hormone concentrations, highlighting the need for standardized sampling practices.

Woman has discoid lupus, frontal fibrosing, and androgenetic alopecia.

This study suggests that 5alpha-dihydroprogesterone could be an effective, non-sedative anticonvulsant for drug-resistant complex partial seizures, as observed in a rat model.

This overview discusses the mind-body problem and suggests that the brain may be intrinsically part of the mind, processing abstract data without direct interaction, but reports no new research results.

This review discusses the interplay between dermatology and psychology in psychodermatology, highlighting the impact of neuroendocrine stress pathways on skin diseases and the importance of considering skin of color.

In this study, researchers observed that administering the minimum dose of levothyroxine to a hypothyroid Dalmatian effectively restored normal skin condition and hormonal levels, suggesting levothyroxine's potential effectiveness in managing skin changes caused by hypothyroidism in dogs.

This study found that blocking GABA(A) receptors in cat dorsal horn neurons increased evoked activity and background discharge, highlighting differences in inhibitory control systems compared to glycine receptors.

MRI helps distinguish between pituitary adenomas and craniopharyngiomas, guides treatment for pediatric CNS tumors, and assesses rhinocerebral mucormycosis with a high mortality rate in transplanted patients.

The study concluded that all parts of the normal human Meibomian gland ductal system show signs of early keratinisation, supporting the idea that these glands are akin to "hair follicles without a hair shaft.

This study reported common skin changes and symptoms associated with thyroid disorders, such as dry skin in hypothyroidism and warm, soft skin in hyperthyroidism, and noted urticaria as a frequent autoimmune association in hypothyroid patients.

This study found that a synthetic polyphenol, dimeric 1,2,4-benzenetriol (diBTO), can coat gray hair and gradually oxidize, creating a resistant brown layer similar to apple browning, which offers a practical hair dyeing solution that withstands washing and reduces the need for long dyeing sessions.

This research found that Dlx3 plays a central role in hair formation and regeneration, with its absence leading to alopecia through disrupted differentiation and signaling pathways.

In this study, phenylthiocarbamide intake was associated with hair graying in rats, while switching to tap water led some rats to regain their original fur color, suggesting dietary factors influence pigmentation.

This review discusses three decades of progress in feather development, regeneration, and evolution, with no new experimental results; it highlights feathers' potential as a model for morphogenesis studies.

The research identified six functional hair keratin genes and four pseudogenes, providing insights into hair formation and gene organization.

This study found that variations in Kv1 channel gene expression in the electric organ of Sternopygus correlate with sex differences and individual variations in their electric communication signals.

This study found that hamster sebaceous glands have high affinity binding sites for dihydrotestosterone, with competition from other steroids indicating specific binding characteristics.

This study discusses the complex roles and effects of brain-synthesized sex neurosteroids, highlighting sex differences in their concentrations and their varied impacts on synaptic plasticity, cognitive behavior, and aging-related cognitive decline.

This review discusses the roles of dermal white adipose tissue (dWAT) as an insulator, antibiotic, and regenerative tissue, highlighting its importance in systemic metabolism and immune function, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that hair follicle innervation in C57BL/6 mice occurs in sequential stages that closely correlate with the development of hair follicles, indicating an interdependent relationship between neuronal and epithelial morphogenesis.

This study describes how feather pigmentation in birds is regulated by melanocyte distribution, differentiation, and patterned agouti expression, contributing to diverse and adaptive color patterns.

This study found that the mammalian hairless gene encodes a corepressor protein that interacts with thyroid hormone receptors, providing insights into hair loss syndromes in humans and mice.

In this case study, divisional thallium intoxication in an adolescent led to progressive optic and peripheral neuropathy, with neurological deterioration occurring more rapidly after a second ingestion.

This case report highlights that in severe illnesses like sepsis, myxedema coma can occur with less elevated TSH levels than typical for primary hypothyroidism, likely due to inflammatory cytokines affecting TSH secretion, even when central lesions are absent.
