In this study, researchers created a mutant mouse lacking the first cut repeat in the Cux/CDP protein, resulting in curly vibrissae and wavy hair, supporting the role of Cux/CDP's DNA binding domains in gene regulation during development.

Isolated patchy heterochromia with pili annulati can occur without other health issues.

In this chapter, the authors explore hyperdiluted CaHA as a new potential treatment for mild to moderate hair loss, providing preliminary insights into its application as an innovative option within regenerative therapies.

This study reports that a novel frameshift mutation in the HTRA1 gene in a CARASIL pedigree led to reduced HTRA1 protein and increased TGF-β1 expression, potentially causing severe CARASIL and peripheral small arterial disease.

This study found that LAHR significantly improves the quality of life in the short term for women with PCOS, but underscores a need for further research to develop long-term treatment strategies.

This study suggests that hair follicles in the genital area may serve as reservoirs for high-risk human papillomaviruses.

This study observed that drug-naïve first-episode psychosis patients had higher hair cortisol concentrations than healthy controls, and these concentrations correlated with the severity of psychopathology.

This study found that individuals with heterozygous truncation-type variants in the *DSP* gene exhibit lower skin temperature and higher transepidermal water loss, with specific microscopic skin changes and pseudomonilethrix.

In this study, mice lacking the Mcpip1 gene in their myeloid cells did not develop SCC-like tumors but instead showed increased melanocyte activity and hair loss, indicating a distinct role for myeloid Mcpip1 in skin cancer development compared to keratinocyte Mcpip1.

In this study, researchers observed a curvilinear relationship between loneliness and hair cortisol concentration among older adults at elevated cardiovascular risk, with cortisol levels higher at low-to-moderate loneliness and lower at higher loneliness, though results were sensitive to some data exclusions.

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 abstract provides information on potential conflicts of interest and acknowledges sources of support for the findings, but does not report specific study results.

This review found that patients with depression generally have higher hair cortisol concentrations compared to healthy controls, while those with PTSD tend to have lower concentrations.

In this study, alopecia areata patients treated with diphencyprone showed a significant increase in CD8 lymphocytes around hair bulbs, which may be associated with hair regrowth.

Diphencyprone treatment protocols could be simplified as no harm occurred despite not fully following them.

This study found that using an oral contraceptive with bicalutamide significantly reduced hirsutism in women with PCOS compared to an oral contraceptive alone, although it increased total cholesterol and LDL levels.

This study found that HPV-150 and HPV-151 are rare genotypes with a preference for skin tissue, detected in some cases of skin lesions with generally low viral loads.

This study identified nine pathogenic variants in the PADI3 gene, and variants in the S100A3 and TCHH genes, which may disrupt protein function and contribute to central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.

This case report describes a 70-year-old man's development of residual hidrocystomas and milia after resolving an acneiform eruption induced by cetuximab, marking a novel observation of this sequence.

This study describes a mouse model for Marie Unna Hereditary Hypotrichosis, identifying mutations in the hairless gene that result in sparse or absent hair and cyst-like hair follicles.

This case report documents the first confirmed mutation-proved instance of Clouston syndrome in a large Chinese-Malaysian family, linked to the c.263C>T (A88V) mutation in the GJB6 gene, with no available treatment but highlighting the importance of genetic counseling.

This case report details an atypical presentation of Hodgkin's lymphoma in an 87-year-old man, where severe hypercalcemia and mental status changes prompted further investigation and diagnosis.

This study identified the Hairless (Hr) gene-encoded protein as a corepressor that plays a crucial role in maintaining skin and hair by regulating epithelial stem cell differentiation and gene expression via chromatin remodeling, which may impact both development and disease.

In this pilot study, the CNC® device improved body image perceptions in patients with chemotherapy-induced alopecia but did not significantly affect psychological wellbeing; it may help prevent discomfort and enhance everyday life compared to traditional wigs.

This review examines the causes, assessment, and treatments of hirsutism and highlights the need for future research in managing this condition but presents no new research findings.

This article discusses the role of HR gene mutations in differentiating atrichia with papular lesions from alopecia universalis, but presents no new experimental results.

In this study, idiopathic hirsutism was identified as the most common cause of hirsutism among the patients, followed by polycystic ovarian syndrome.

In this study, a 3-year-old Japanese child with autosomal recessive woolly hair was found to have a distinctive irregular and rough cuticle on the hair shaft, along with a homozygous pathogenic LIPH variant, suggesting a critical role for genetic analysis in understanding rare hair conditions.

This study found that genes in the human keratin-associated protein 1 family may have evolved mainly through gene duplication of cysteine-repeat motifs.

HPV infection is linked to better survival in advanced anal cancer, higher radiation doses improve survival, especially in HPV-negative patients, and prostaglandin E₂ pretreatment can protect mouse hair follicles from radiation damage.
