Keratin heterodimers are preferred for their specific and structural advantages.

This study utilized the DNP–SANS technique on human hair for the first time and found significant changes in the SANS profile dependent on polarization conditions, providing insights into the structural composition and dynamic properties of keratin and its associated proteins.

In this study, researchers developed a method to automatically detect androgen receptor nuclear translocation in dermal papilla cells using fluorescence markers and image analysis, finding that the receptor's nuclear signal peaks about 20 minutes after DHT exposure.

This research observed that oral testosterone replacement therapy significantly increases cardiovascular risk, while effects of injected or transdermal therapy on cardiovascular risk were not significant, prompting further investigation into these methods.

This study concluded that 12 sessions of fractionated thulium laser treatment improved hair density and thickness in patients with pattern hair loss, with further benefits from adding a growth factor solution post-treatment.

This study found that over 26% of patients using Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F experienced adverse events, highlighting the need for better strategies to manage these risks.

In this study, the researchers observed that the severity of capecitabine-induced hand-foot syndrome in advanced gastric cancer patients was not linked to the IVS14+1G→A mutation in the DPYD gene.

This study examined the correlation between vitamin D, its receptor, and chronic telogen effluvium in females, identifying possible links between these factors and increased hair shedding.

This narrative review discusses advancements in the understanding and treatment of dermatitis herpetiformis as a manifestation of celiac disease and reports no new research results.

This study found that combining fire needle therapy with DHT treatment over eight weeks improved lesion severity, scar symptoms, quality of life, and reduced serum inflammatory cytokine levels in patients with moderate-to-severe acne vulgaris compared to using DHT alone.

This paper reviews current knowledge about androgens' role in androgenic alopecia and female hirsutism but presents no new clinical findings.

This study by Dr. Manka and colleagues reported that thyroid hormones play a significant role in regulating hepatic stellate cells, influencing liver fibrosis progression via TGFβ signaling. They found that TRα signaling might enhance scar-free tissue regeneration, offering potential pathways for targeted liver fibrosis treatments.

This study investigated transcription factors in human trophectoderm cells during development, finding that GATA2 and GATA3 are essential for transforming stem cells into induced trophoblast stem cells, which display characteristics similar to placental progenitor cells, offering new methods for modeling placental-associated diseases.

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.

This study identified a new genetic variant in the KRT71 gene responsible for a breed-specific form of hypotrichosis in Hereford cattle, potentially serving as a model for similar human conditions.

This study found that two unrelated domestic shorthair cats had novel DSG4 gene mutations causing defective hair shafts, representing the first report of pathogenic DSG4 variants in domestic animals.

In this study, VD(3) pretreatment increased hair follicle formation in a rat model by promoting dermal papilla cell differentiation, suggesting potential for hair regeneration therapy.

This study found that dutasteride affected spinal bone formation in curdlan-treated SKG mice, while DHT treatment reduced osteoblast differentiation in vitro, suggesting that DHT inhibition might unexpectedly increase spinal ankylosis progression in ankylosing spondylitis patients.

A specific gene mutation is linked to a hereditary form of dystonia that responds well to certain medications.

This study found that long-term use of difluprednate ophthalmic emulsion in dogs can lead to HPA axis suppression and potentially cause iatrogenic hyperadrenocorticism, with localized alopecia suspected due to dermal absorption.

This paper discusses the use of Digital Volumetric Imaging with fluorescent dyes to visualize and compare the interior structures of six different virgin hair types, reporting no new clinical results.

This study observed that follicular unit extraction combined with direct hair implantation successfully restored hair in a patient with multifocal post-burn alopecia, achieving nearly natural growth density and patient satisfaction.

This study reported that using UVB preirradiation and anti-CD154 antibody treatment in a humanized mouse model prolonged hair follicle allograft survival and reduced immune cell infiltration without needing generalized immunosuppression.

This study found that thymus transplantation in infants with FOXN1 deficiency led to T-cell reconstitution and functional immunity, resolving serious infections and cytopenias.

This study found that in lamivudine-resistant hepatitis B patients, tenofovir significantly reduced HBV DNA levels faster and more consistently than adefovir, reaching undetectable levels in all treated patients by 44 weeks.

This article reviews hair growth patterns in humans and laboratory animals, noting the random distribution of active and inactive hair follicles and differences in regional coordination among animal species, and reports no new results.

In this study, a topical formulation with compounds from the monoterpenoid family significantly improved hair growth indicators like anagen:telogen ratio, hair fall, and visual hair density in men and women with pattern hair loss.

This study found that while DP concentrations in dust were higher in male dormitories, DP in hair was higher in females, suggesting differing metabolism between genders and that hair DP mainly originates internally.

This study found that thyroxine modulates peripheral molecular clock gene expression in human hair follicles, which may have implications for treating clock-related diseases in patients with thyroid dysfunction.
