This review summarizes recent research and patents on 17β-HSD3, 17β-HSD5, and 3α-HSD3 inhibitors, suggesting their potential in treating androgen-dependent diseases, but reports no new clinical results.

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 study demonstrates that canonical Wnt signaling is crucial for maintaining thymic epithelial microenvironments in postnatal thymus, possibly by affecting TEC progenitor cells.

BTNL2 helps protect hair follicles from immune attacks.

This study of alopecia areata patients found that a 10 mg twice-daily dose of oral tofacitinib led to significant hair regrowth, suggesting it may be beneficial for treatment.

This case report describes a 4-year-old girl with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, linked to mutations in the cadherin 3 gene affecting P-cadherin expression.

This study found that keratin 6hf, a type II keratin, is expressed in specific regions of mouse and human hair and suggests potential interactions with keratin 17, impacting hair development and associated disorders.

In this study, researchers evaluated the hair growth-promoting effects of strawberry water-extract on human follicle dermal papilla cells and found it enhanced cell metabolism, though it did not significantly alter hair growth-related gene expression.

This study observed that higher childhood levels of DHEAS were associated with more advanced pubertal development and correlated with changes in DNA methylation near puberty-related genes in both boys and girls, potentially explaining the hormone's influence on puberty.

This study found that WD-aptamer increased β-catenin expression and promoted human hair follicle dermal papilla cell proliferation by interfering with the CXXC5-Dvl1 interaction in the Wnt signaling pathway.

This study found that transdermal DHT treatment increased penile length in boys with 5α-reductase type 2 deficiency, but post-pubertal growth was limited and carried potential prostate complications.

This study identified a novel bi-allelic missense variant in the DSC3 gene linked to severe Hypotrichosis with Recurrent Skin Vesicles in a Saudi child, supporting its role in the condition.

This report discusses a case of hair toe tourniquet syndrome in an infant and emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to prevent severe complications.

This study identified four novel DSG4 mutations associated with monilethrix in 12 Jewish families, suggesting a recessive inheritance pattern and broader prevalence of DSG4-related hair disorders than previously recognized.

Certain immune cells in atopic dermatitis skin could be targeted for treatment.

This study found that DHHC13 is crucial for hair anchoring and skin barrier function, with its deficiency in Zdhhc13(skc4) mice leading to cyclic alopecia and skin abnormalities due to cornifelin deficiencies.

This study reports a novel TRbeta gene mutation associated with resistance to thyroid hormone syndrome, which may contribute to various forms of alopecia in the affected family members.

This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing human ATF3 showed hyperplastic and dysplastic changes in epithelial tissues, with a high incidence of oral cancer, suggesting potential oncogenic properties of ATF3.

This study found that CTHRC1 is crucial for sweat gland function and vascular network integrity in mice, and its administration improved sweat gland performance by reconstructing nearby blood vessels.

This study found that dengue virus infection caused inflammation and cell death in human hair-follicle dermal papilla cells, which may contribute to increased hair shedding observed during the epidemic in Taiwan.

DHEA therapy improved pubic hair growth and psychological well-being in young females with adrenal insufficiency.

This abstract discusses the unclear role of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in postembryonic life in marsupials and possibly humans, reporting no new findings.

This study found that 5-bromo-3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (BDB) promoted hair growth in rat vibrissa follicles by activating Wnt/β-catenin and autophagy pathways and inhibiting the TGF-β pathway in dermal papilla cells.

This study found that plasma 3 alpha-diol glucuronide was markedly elevated in women with idiopathic hirsutism, suggesting it may be a marker of peripheral androgen action.

This report describes two cases of thallium poisoning with gastrointestinal symptoms, peripheral neuropathy, and alopecia, which were effectively treated using activated charcoal, potassium chloride, and hemodialysis.

This review discusses dermatophytosis in equines, caused primarily by T. equinum, noting its global prevalence and highlighting diagnostic methods; it reports no new clinical results.

CTP-543 effectively promotes hair regrowth in adults with moderate to severe alopecia areata.

This study found that combining oral testosterone with dutasteride increased testosterone bioavailability in hypogonadal men while suppressing dihydrotestosterone levels over a 28-day period.

This article reviews the roles of several signaling pathways and molecules, including FGFs, Hh, Notch, TGF, and Wnt, in the development of teeth and hair follicles, but reports no new findings.

This study developed and tested a new injectable hydrogel for chronic diabetic wounds, reporting significant improvements in wound healing through enhanced angiogenesis, epithelization, and reduction of inflammation and infection in animal models.
