This article discusses tools for measuring hair density in donor areas to guide hair transplant surgery and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the role of digital imaging in achieving consistent outcomes.

This study highlights a rare case of vitamin D-dependent rickets type 2A caused by a heterozygous mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene, emphasizing the complexity of managing this condition with high-dose calcium and vitamin D therapy.

In liver cancer cells, this study found that upregulating hsa_circ_0002980 inhibits cell proliferation, metastasis, and EMT by modulating the miR-1303/CADM2 axis, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target.

This study demonstrates that dermal white adipose tissue regulates human hair growth and pigmentation through hepatocyte growth factor secretion, highlighting potential therapeutic targets for hair-related disorders.

This study developed two sensitive chromatographic methods for determining finasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride in pharmaceutical forms, validated against International Conference on Harmonisation guidelines.

In this study, low-dose finasteride (2.5 mg/day) significantly reduced hirsutism scores in women over 12 months without significant hormonal changes or serious side effects.

This case report describes an instance of autosomal recessive uncombable hair syndrome caused by maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 1.

This paper reviews current knowledge about androgens' role in androgenic alopecia and female hirsutism but presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that DHHC13 is crucial for hair anchoring and skin barrier function, with its deficiency in Zdhhc13(skc4) mice leading to cyclic alopecia and skin abnormalities due to cornifelin deficiencies.

This study found that Hordenine promotes hair regrowth and enhances dermal-papilla cell activity in mice by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, suggesting potential for treating alopecia.

This study found no evidence that HDGF expression transforms melanocytes into tumors in a mouse model, although it may play a role in cell differentiation and tumor progression.

This study found that serum 3 alpha-diol G levels in women with idiopathic hirsutism correlated well with their clinical response to treatment, suggesting its usefulness in evaluating treatment outcomes.

In this study, researchers found that hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells, modified to overexpress extracellular matrix protein 1, significantly improved liver function and reduced liver damage in cirrhotic mice by inhibiting hepatic stellate cell activation and TGF-β/Smad signaling.

HDAC1 is crucial for skin development and preventing tumors.

This study found that bioconjugating 16-methylheptadecanoic acid (16-MHA) to damaged hair can mimic the protective properties of 18-methyleicosanoic acid (18-MEA), restoring the hair's structural integrity and moisture homeostasis, even after washing.

This article describes the causes of hirsutism, introduces a novel assessment tool, and suggests strategies for investigation and management, but provides no new experimental results.

This study found that a low-dose intermittent finasteride regimen significantly reduced hirsutism scores in adolescent girls with PCOS or idiopathic hirsutism, with similar efficacy but potentially safer and less expensive than continuous administration.

This study reports a case of a child with congenital skin fragility, alopecia, and cardiomyopathy due to compound heterozygous mutations in the DSP gene causing desmoplakin deficiency.

This study found that Gynostemma pentaphyllum leaf hydrodistillate (GPHD) promoted hair growth in mice similarly to minoxidil and upregulated growth factor expression via the AKT/β-catenin signaling pathway, with damulin B identified as an active component contributing to these effects.

This study reported that a decellularized porcine amniotic membrane hydrogel can alleviate inflammation and promote tissue repair in a UVB-induced skin inflammation model, suggesting its potential as a regenerative treatment for photodamage-associated skin injuries.

Hairless protein helps control hair growth by regulating vitamin D receptor activity.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) worsens heart enlargement, and blocking it may help prevent heart issues.

This study describes a co-dominant E410D mutation in keratin hHb6 associated with severe hair loss and extensive papules in homozygous individuals, with variable expression in heterozygous family members.

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.

This case study from Boston University details a 35-year-old woman diagnosed with congenital adrenal hyperplasia, treated with dexamethasone, leading to normalized androgen levels and successful conception.

This study concluded that the hairless protein interacts with the vitamin D receptor to repress transcription crucial for hair cycling, employing multiple protein interfaces and modulating chromatin structure.

This study suggests that Houttuynia cordata extract may promote hair growth by stimulating dermal papilla cell proliferation and extending the anagen phase through enhanced energy metabolism and gene expression changes.

The two finasteride formulations are bioequivalent.

This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing human H-ferritin showed mild growth retardation and a temporary hairless phenotype, highlighting H-ferritin's physiological roles.

This study identified the presence of the enzyme 1 alpha-hydroxylase in various extrarenal tissues, suggesting its potential role in modulating vitamin D function in peripheral tissues.
