This article describes a rare case of alopecia with both scarring and non-scarring features, combining histologic signs of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia with select immunologic features of alopecia areata.

This case report presents unique histopathological findings in skin lesions of hereditary mucoepithelial dysplasia that have not been previously documented.

The researchers investigated a Maine Coon cat with suspected classical Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and discovered a heterozygous deletion in the COL5A1 gene, underscoring the value of whole-genome sequencing for precise veterinary diagnostics.

In this clinical case report, a man with Birt Hogg Dube syndrome presented with parathyroid cancer, the first such case according to the authors, highlighting a potential link between Folliculin gene mutations and parathyroid cancer development.

This study mapped a spontaneous mouse hair mutation, "hague," to keratin genes on chromosome 15 but found no gene mutations in hague mice.

This study found that home-use diphenylcyclopropenone (H-DPCP) is a cost-effective alternative to office-use for severe alopecia areata, showing similar effectiveness with reduced costs.

This study suggests that hair cortisol concentration may not reliably indicate psychological distress or differentiate clinical from non-clinical populations, as observed in a female PhD student over nine years.

This study found that downregulation of Sonic hedgehog signaling may promote HPV replication and wart formation by inducing cell cycle arrest in keratinocytes.

This abstract contains only author affiliations and mentions the Asian Association of Hair Restoration Surgeons, without presenting any new research findings.

This study found that hair cortisol concentrations in mother-daughter pairs are a potential biomarker for cortisol responses to chronic stress, with daughter-mother similarities affected by parenting styles and children's symptoms.

A combined drug and laser treatment improved hirsutism in a PCOS patient, also enhancing her heart health and requiring regular liver and kidney checks.

Hair cortisol levels can indicate stress and are affected by washing frequency, not cosmetic treatments.

This study identified a human sequence likely coding for a new ultra-high sulphur protein, which may aid in understanding hair differentiation and the molecular basis of human trichothiodystrophy.

This study identified a distinct gene near the hairless locus on chromosome 8p that is responsible for hereditary Marie Unna type hypotrichosis in a German family.

People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.

This study found that the PPARγ modulator NAC-GED-0507-Levo may protect hair follicles from chemotherapy-induced damage, potentially offering a strategy to address irreversible hair loss in cancer patients.

In this study, researchers confirmed linkage of a form of hair-nail ectodermal dysplasia to chromosome 12 in a Pakistani family, suggesting a possible non-coding mutation in KRTHB5 or a mutation in an unknown gene.

This study demonstrated that transcutaneous vaccination via cyanoacrylate skin surface stripping effectively induced both CD4 and CD8 T cell responses in humans, offering a promising alternative to intramuscular injection.

This study found that pilomatricomas exhibit co-expression of hair keratin hHa5 and HOXC13 in lower transitional cells, but lack LEF1 and β-catenin co-expression necessary for canonical Wnt signaling pathway-controlled cortical differentiation.

This review discusses the pathogenesis of hirsutism and related diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome in Korean women, but reports no new clinical results.

This study demonstrated that intradermal treatment with a medical device using Polynucleotides High Purification Technology (PN HPT) significantly improved skin surface, firmness, pigmentation, and radiance in 30 Asian subjects, with benefits lasting up to six months and no adverse events reported.

This article discusses central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, highlighting its prevalence, potential genetic factors, and management challenges, but reports no new clinical conclusions and calls for further research.

This article suggests that alopecia areata may be an early skin manifestation of hereditary hemochromatosis in individuals predisposed to autoimmunity, recommending iron status evaluation during AA diagnosis; it reports no new clinical results.

This report describes a case of a man developing hair changes, including Beau's lines and Pohl-Pinkus constrictions, following ABVD chemotherapy.

In this pilot study, researchers observed a correlation between clinical severity and histologic severity of lichen planopilaris, suggesting that an immunohistochemical scoring system could aid in grading disease activity.

This case report details a 71-year-old man diagnosed with Cronkhite-Canada Syndrome, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and endoscopic evaluation due to the disease's progressive nature and significant mortality risk.

This study found that loss of Ptch1 function in mouse skin's basal cells is sufficient to rapidly induce tumors resembling human basal cell carcinoma, suggesting Ptch1 as a key tumor suppressor.

This review analyzes the mnemonic MY PCOS, exploring diagnosis and treatment strategies for the metabolic, cosmetic, and reproductive complications of polycystic ovary syndrome, without reporting new clinical findings.

This study found that both a high dose of CPA and GnRHa are effective for treating hirsutism in hyperandrogenic women, but GnRHa with add-back therapy may lead to a longer remission period.

This review explores treatment approaches for excess male-pattern body hair in women and emphasizes the importance of effective management, but reports no new clinical findings.
