This study suggests that the harlequin ichthyosis mouse model closely resembles human type 2 harlequin ichthyosis, indicating its potential as a useful model for studying the human condition.

This review discusses insights into the role of lipase H in controlling hair form and texture, emphasizing genetic mutations linked to autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, and reports no new experimental results.

In this case report, researchers detailed a 22-year-old Turkish woman diagnosed with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis (ARWH/H), linked to a mutation in the LIPH gene, resulting in sparse, poorly growing, curly hair, highlighting the need for genetic consideration in similar hair conditions.

This study found that the new HCC additive enhances the permeation of pigments and active ingredients into hair, suggesting potential use in developing functional cosmetic hair products.

This study found that topical application of glycyrrhizic acid led to significant hair removal in rats without causing inflammation, suggesting potential for treating hypertrichosis in humans.

This case report describes the first known association of hypertrichosis lanuginosa acquisita with autoimmune hepatitis, expanding the list of conditions linked to this rare disorder.

This study identified compound heterozygous mutations, c.1101del and c.736 T > A, in the LIPH gene responsible for causing autosomal recessive woolly hair in a child, with c.1101del being a novel frameshift mutation.

In this case study from King Fahad University Hospital, an 11-month-old Saudi boy with a history of short, non-growing hair was diagnosed with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, attributed to a homozygous mutation in the LIPH gene.

This study investigated a spontaneous mutation in mice resulting in hair abnormalities and elevated IgE levels, which resembles human Netherton's syndrome and monilethrix.

This case report describes a 15-year-old Japanese girl with juvenile hypothyroidism who developed hypertrichosis and hyperkeratosis due to a keratin plug inhibiting hair growth on her back and arms.

This study observed that some patients with homozygous c.736T>A mutation in LIPH may have mild hypotrichosis with long hairs in adulthood.

This case report describes a 78-year-old male with adenocarcinoma and Hypertrichosis lanuginosa acquisita, highlighting the need to consider malignancy in patients with unexplained excessive hair growth.

This study identified a novel mutation and confirmed a previous mutation in the LIPH gene in a woman with autosomal recessive woolly hair, expanding the mutation spectrum for this condition.

This study identified multiple loss of function variants in the HR gene linked to the unique hair coat phenotype in lykoi cats, also known as werewolf cats.

The authors concluded that the combination of 755 nm alexandrite laser and topical licorice is more effective than the alexandrite laser alone in reducing idiopathic hirsutism in women, with no serious adverse reactions reported.

This study suggested that differences in hair follicle development, indicated by the frequency of underdeveloped hairs, significantly contribute to the variation in hair loss severity among Japanese individuals with the LIPH c.736T>A mutation.

LIPH mutations cause woolly hair in some Chinese people.

This book reviews the cultural and social significance of hair throughout history using various media sources, but it reports no new research findings.

In this case study, electron microscopy revealed that harlequin ichthyosis involves giant mitochondria in keratinocytes and abnormal lamellar granule development, which may contribute to pathogenesis through altered lipid metabolism.

In this study, researchers identified loss of function variants in the HR gene as likely causes of the distinct roaning hair coat seen in lykoi cats.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

This case report documents the first instance of acquired uncombable hair syndrome in a 39-year-old woman, characterized by diffuse alopecia and minimal upper lip hirsutism.

This review identifies genetic mutations associated with congenital hair loss disorders in Japanese populations, particularly highlighting common LIPH gene mutations linked to woolly hair/hypotrichosis, and reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a six-year-old girl with hypertrichosis cubiti, characterized by excess terminal hair growth around the elbows, and notes treatment with over-the-counter depilatory creams and shaving to address aesthetic concerns.
