This study found that a newly identified mutation in the hairless gene in mice led to decreased Hr mRNA levels and changes in gene expression related to hair follicle development.

This paper presents two cases of hair tourniquet syndrome and suggests washing baby socks inside out as a potential preventative measure.

This case report details a 13-year-old girl experiencing patchy hair loss on her scalp, with no pain or hair-pulling behavior reported.

The study found that males with androgenetic alopecia had a significantly lower left-hand 2D:4D digit ratio compared to healthy controls, suggesting this ratio may help estimate future AGA risk.

This study evaluated a hair growth gel with Hibiscus rosa sinensis, Eclipta alba, and Solanum nigrum extracts, demonstrating consistent homogeneity, 5 α-reductase inhibitory activity, and no skin irritation.

In this study, a combined therapy of nicotinamide and green tea polyphenols was reported to improve EGFR inhibitor-related skin toxicity and patient quality of life, suggesting it merits further investigation.

Skin problems can indicate different diseases inside the body.

This study reports the first case of atrichia with papular lesions in a Taiwanese family without a detectable mutation in the HR gene.

This article presents a case of limb tourniquet syndrome in an elderly patient with memory problems, emphasizing potential regional changes that can cause irreversible damage.

This study aimed to develop organic oil and shampoo using fish scales and herbs to potentially improve hair strength, growth, and moisture, addressing hair issues like thinning and greying.

This paper reports a case of alopecia triangularis congenita in a 22-year-old woman, combined with androgenetic alopecia, and highlights successful treatment with internal and topical antiandrogens.

This article discusses patterned androgenic alopecia in normal women and reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that the small molecules KY19382 and KY19334 inhibited cancerous traits in human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma cells by suppressing the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, indicating their potential as treatments for cancers involving CDK1 overexpression and diseases related to CXXC5 accumulation.

This case report presents a rare subtype of hypomyelinating leukodystrophy linked to a PYCR2 gene mutation, emphasizing exome sequencing's value in diagnosing undiagnosed childhood HLDs with atypical symptoms.

In this study, researchers developed a herbal hair dye using henna and other natural ingredients that achieved a color similar to natural black on blonde hair, though further testing on various hair shades is needed to explore its full benefits.

This case study reported a neonate of Indian descent with localized hypotrichosis type 1 due to a likely pathogenic deletion in the DSG4 gene, marking the first such case from India.

This case study describes a 29-year-old man who presented with a fever and a generalized maculopapular rash, alongside symptoms like hair loss and joint pain, leading to an investigation into whether his condition was a case of the "great masquerader.

This case report described a facial hairline tumor initially diagnosed as a sebaceous cyst but ultimately confirmed as a rare Proliferating Pilar Tumor with focal malignancies upon histopathological examination.

This study reported that mSKPs and DMSCs share similarities in biological characteristics but exhibit distinct transcriptome profiles, with mSKPs being more immune-related and DMSCs more associated with differentiation and disease pathways.

This study suggests that unliganded vitamin D receptors in mice may cause more severe skeletal and mineral ion defects than VDR-null conditions, and vitamin D analogues may restore function in specific VDR mutations.

This review discusses hair tourniquet syndrome, highlighting its potential for delayed diagnosis and the association with maternal telogen effluvium, but reports no new clinical results.

A bald man grew hair on his head after taking a drug called diazoxide, but lost it again when he stopped the medication.

Hormonal differences affect male pattern baldness.

In this study of women with hirsutism or androgenic alopecia, diverse underlying endocrine disorders including polycystic ovaries and various enzyme deficiencies were detected, often associated with elevated testosterone levels.

In this case series, researchers observed androgenetic alopecia in 20 prepubertal children with a strong genetic predisposition, despite the condition typically not occurring before puberty.

This study found that using medical terminology for newly medicalized disorders leads people to perceive them as more serious, more representative of a disease, and less common than when common language is used.

This study demonstrated that tight junction barriers exist in human hair follicles but are less tight in hair follicle keratinocytes than in interfollicular keratinocytes, highlighting claudin-1's key role in follicle barrier function and growth.

In this study, researchers reported a 0.11% occurrence of congenital triangular alopecia, recommending surgical treatment for women but not for men due to later potential development of androgenic alopecia.

This study found that intraoperative tissue expansion increased the amount of excised scalp by 20-30% during scalp reduction surgery for male pattern alopecia.

This case report describes total alopecia in a 53-year-old woman after 13 months of tamoxifen treatment for breast cancer, with normal hair distribution maintained elsewhere.
