In this study, the novel thiol-Michael click perming molecule, MA2-CySS, achieved repeatable perming with reduced oxidative damage, preserving hair keratin's structure while maintaining efficiency comparable to traditional oxidative methods.

This article discusses the role of dihydrotestosterone in human prostatic adenocarcinoma growth and suggests that 6-methyleneprogesterone could be used to inhibit DHT for treating hormone-responsive prostate cancer, without new clinical findings.

In this study, the researchers found that thymosin beta-4 promotes odontoblastic differentiation in human dental pulp cells, suggesting it as a potential mechanism for regenerative endodontics.

HPT axis hormones boost mitochondrial function and growth in hair follicles, potentially aiding hair health.

In this study, treating hair with thioglycolic acid was found to alter disulfide bond patterns in keratin-associated proteins, shifting them from an ellipsoidal to a near-spherical shape.

This study suggests that combining bendamustine with tucidinostat may improve survival in patients with relapsed or refractory adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, highlighting its potential for clinical investigation.

This study reports that despite normal cystine incorporation into hair follicles, trichothiodystrophy patients have decreased cystine levels in hair shafts, contradicting the hypothesis of defective transport in hair follicles.

This article reports a case of trichothiodystrophy in a 7-year-old girl with sulfur deficiency in her hair, characterized by sparse, slow-growing hair and distinctive tiger tail banding under microscopy.

This study found that a novel R343H mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene impairs its transcription activity, contributing to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets and alopecia in the affected family.

In this study, researchers examined two new cases of trichothiodystrophy and observed that the condition is linked to decreased synthesis of high-sulfur matrix proteins in hair.

This review emphasizes the potential of repurposing topical L-thyroxine for skin ulcers and telogen effluvium and highlights the need for further exploration of its use in dermatology.

This study found that hair dyes significantly affect DNA sequence analysis, with the organic extraction method performing better on hair shafts and the prepFiler kit yielding higher success for follicle-included samples.

This study demonstrated that Tet2 and Tet3 enzymes are crucial for controlling gene expression related to hair differentiation in mice, suggesting DNA demethylation could be a new method for managing hair growth.

This study found that UVB radiation significantly alters miRNA expression and induces cytotoxicity and apoptosis in normal human dermal papilla cells.

This study reports that melatonin influenced HaCaT cell proliferation, with high concentrations reducing DNA synthesis and low concentrations enhancing it after 24 hours.

This case report describes a 2-year-old boy diagnosed with trichothiodystrophy, characterized by fragile hair, intellectual damage, diminished fertility, and short stature.

In this study, physiological levels of free T3 significantly enhanced the survival of human hair follicles in vitro.

This study found no significant difference in glutathione-S-epoxide transferase activity in hair follicles between smokers and non-smokers, suggesting this enzyme's levels may not indicate polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-related cancer risk.

This source reports that thymosin beta 4 accelerated dermal wound repair in phase 2 clinical trials for pressure ulcers, stasis ulcers, and epidermolysis bullosa wounds and was well tolerated.

This study found that skin exposure to toluene diisocyanate in mice creates immune-recognition reservoirs in the skin's stratum corneum and hair follicles, potentially leading to sensitization and allergic reactions.

This study found that topical treatment with 7DHC and BM15766 reduced hair growth in mice compared to those treated with Ethanol/DMSO, and hair did not recover after treatment ceased, alongside increased apoptotic cells and decreased expression of specific genes.

In this study, the researchers reported that a newly developed PYGL inhibitor, HTPI, enhanced hair growth in an ex-vivo culture by reducing oxidative damage in hDPCs and inhibiting glycogen degradation in hORSCs, showing potential as a treatment for hair loss comparable to minoxidil.

This article discusses dermatologic adverse events associated with topoisomerase inhibitors and anthracyclines, such as alopecia and hand-foot syndrome, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that young women with female-pattern hair loss exhibit increased testosterone production rates while dihydrotestosterone production rates remain within or below the normal range.

Methimazole may cause skin defects in babies if taken during pregnancy.

This study suggests that clinically apparent fragile hair in children is rarely linked to trichothiodystrophy, and the tiger-tail pattern is not wholly specific to this diagnosis.

In this study, T3 and T4 were found to directly influence human hair follicles in vitro, enhancing keratinocyte proliferation, prolonging the hair growth phase, and affecting pigmentation.

This study identified a novel I268T mutation in the vitamin D receptor that reduces its function, contributing to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, and found that a potent vitamin D analog could improve receptor function.

This study reported a series of eight children with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets in Tunisia, identifying both common and novel mutations in the vitamin D receptor gene, and noting significant improvement with intravenous calcium treatment in most patients.
