This article discusses dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, an uncommon hair condition, and reports no new clinical results; recent terminology adjustments are noted for potential overlaps with other follicular diseases.

This study found that topical administration of the TGFβ mimetic peptide DPS-1 stimulated hair growth in mice by promoting HDP cell proliferation and enhancing hair follicle morphology.

In this study, a Chinese Han family with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets was found to have a homozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, and the affected individual uniquely responded well to treatment with oral calcium and low-dose calcitriol.

This study describes a family with loose anagen hair syndrome associated with macular dystrophy, suggesting this combination may represent a new disease entity among ectodermal dysplasias.

This study found elevated levels of IL-18 and free IL-18 in hidradenitis suppurativa patients compared to healthy controls, suggesting these cytokines may serve as novel biomarkers for disease activity, with correlations indicating their involvement in disease severity.

This study analyzed the molecular evolution and functional divergence of the Dkk gene family, finding accelerated evolution in Aves and Reptilia and identifying functional differences that may impact hair follicle development via Wnt signaling inhibition.

In this study, a novel DCAF17 gene mutation was identified in a Chinese family, suggesting a potential role in pancreatic β cell dysfunction and diabetes development in Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome.

This case report presents a 28-year-old woman with alopecia universalis and macular dystrophy, highlighting a potential new linkage between these conditions without previously identified associated genes.

This study found that the p.E402K mutation in the KRT86 gene is a hotspot in Chinese patients with monilethrix, and treatment with 5% topical minoxidil significantly improved hair density and quality.

This report documents a rare case of familial eyelash trichomegaly and synophrys in three siblings, with one sister also having loose anagen hair syndrome, an unreported association.

This mini-review details how the SOX family of transcription factors contributes to cancer immune evasion by affecting antigen presentation, impacting the tumor's immunosuppressive environment, and regulating immune checkpoints, offering insights for developing novel immunotherapy strategies.

In this study, 26.66% of vitiligo patients had a familial occurrence, indicating that genetic variations significantly contribute to the disease's etiology.

In this study, researchers performed a genome-wide characterization of the Wnt gene family in domestic donkeys, identifying 19 genes and highlighting their evolutionary conservation among mammals, along with tissue-specific expression patterns potentially linked to reproductive regulation and tissue homeostasis.

This review suggests that the TSC22D family genes may influence metabolism and cancer, potentially serving as a therapeutic target for conditions like diabetes, obesity, and certain tumors, depending on the tumor environment.

This report identified a family of Iranian siblings with diverse clinical forms of Lichen Planus, suggesting potential genetic and environmental involvement in its pathogenesis.

This review discusses recent research on the Dickkopf protein family's involvement in non-cancerous diseases and considers their potential as biomarkers and therapeutic targets without presenting new experimental results.

In this case report, researchers observed multiple trichofolliculomas in family members, noting this as a rare manifestation of typically singular hair follicle hamartomas.

This study found that women with familial hirsutism in southern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, exhibited elevated androgen levels and insulin resistance compared to controls, suggesting a significant hereditary and hormonal basis for the condition.

This case report details two consanguineous patients with cerebral autosomal recessive arteriopathy, both having the same HTRA1 gene mutation, but exhibiting different clinical presentations, including one with epileptic seizures and lobar hemorrhages—previously undocumented in this condition.

This study reported three cases of tinea corporis caused by Microsporum canis in a household, linked to a domestic cat, where genetic analysis suggested a familial transmission route.

This abstract recounts the unusual encounter between an English engineer and Maung Po Set, a Burmese man with a rare pattern of hair growth, on a steamer in 1886, illustrating a cultural exchange made possible by Maung Po Set's rapid acquisition of English.

This study found that males with a maternal history of androgenetic alopecia were significantly more likely to have female pattern hair loss, suggesting early screening might be beneficial.

This study found that family support significantly predicted improved body image satisfaction and self-esteem among women with PCOS, emphasizing its importance in psychological well-being.

This review discusses a traditional medicinal plant used in various holistic health systems and reports its potential antitumor activity, but no new clinical results are provided.

The first Japanese family with Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis showed hair condition improvement in a child and highlighted the risk of misdiagnosis.

This case report identifies an adolescent with symptoms indicative of Dunnigan-type partial lipodystrophy, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis to manage associated metabolic complications and improve self-esteem.

This study found that dermatology consultations in a tertiary care center led to treatment changes in most cases, especially for complex conditions potentially linked to systemic disease.

This study found that super-enhancers in squamous cell carcinoma stem cells are distinctly different from those in normal skin stem cells, with ETS2 playing a crucial role in promoting tumor growth.

This study discovered that DNA damage independently induces IL-19 and IL-24 cytokines, which regulate senescence-associated secretory phenotype factors, suggesting potential pathways for treating cancer and age-related diseases.

This case study highlights the importance of considering colorectal cancer as a potential diagnosis in young patients, especially females, with symptoms mimicking eating disorders, due to the risk of late-stage cancer discovery.
