This case series highlights the real-world challenges and experiences of US healthcare providers using pegvaliase for phenylketonuria treatment, emphasizing patient education on adverse events and dietary changes, and tailored titration schedules, while reporting that most patients achieved treatment efficacy despite initial adverse events.

This study found that ectodermal precursor cells derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells may enhance hair follicle morphogenesis through improved epithelial-mesenchymal interactions when cocultured with dermal cells.

This study observed distinct changes in the ultrastructure of Hexi cashmere goat hair follicles throughout the year, highlighting stages with specific cellular and structural characteristics.

This review highlights that idiopathic hirsutism is characterized by local hyperandrogenization affecting hair growth, without other signs of hyperandrogenism, and shows no new results; racial differences in prevalence are noted but not in androgenic steroids.

Swimming in Lake Malawi can lead to schistosomiasis, hepatitis B vaccine might cause temporary hair loss, and certain drinks affect kidney stone risk.

This review discusses idiopathic hirsutism, potential underlying mechanisms, and various therapeutic approaches without providing new clinical results, and emphasizes the need for further research on well-defined patient groups.

In this study, researchers found that extrafollicular progenitors marked by Hic1 are the main contributors to reparative fibroblasts in wound repair, with potential to modulate healing outcomes through genetic and pharmacological interventions.

This study found that tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) is an effective and safer alternative to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) for chronic hepatitis B, with fewer long-term side effects like nephrotoxicity and decreased bone density.

This study found that treatment with leuprolide plus cyclic estrogen/progestin may lead to a faster and greater improvement in hirsutism compared to a standard oral contraceptive regimen.

This study found that human hair follicles express erythropoietin and its receptor, suggesting these follicles may use erythropoietin signaling to modulate apoptosis under stress conditions like hypoxia and chemotherapy.

This review discusses various presentations of drug-induced cutaneous eruptions, particularly those associated with interferon and ribavirin, and reports no new clinical findings.

This paper presents a consensus-driven diagnostic evaluation form for assessing hirsutism in premenopausal women, developed by The Skin Academy for use in clinical practice.

In this study, researchers found that human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells exhibit significant phagocytic ability against various particles and pathogens, which might enhance strategies for addressing specific local and systemic infections due to their regenerative properties.

This study developed a rapid method to extract proteins from human hair, revealing phosphorylation on serine and threonine residues in alpha-keratins and matrix proteins.

This study in a nine-year-old boy from Lebanon identified a gene mutation (c.1066dup p.(Arg356Profs*16)) associated with a rare inborn error of immunity, characterized by craniosynostosis, jaundice, and several other symptoms, expanding the known genotypic and phenotypic spectrum of this condition.

This article provides guidelines for molecular genetic testing of congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, focusing on quality requirements, methodologies, and variant classification; it reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes irreversible alopecia universalis following discontinuation of Peg-IFN/RBV treatment for chronic hepatitis C, highlighting potential autoimmune side effects of interferon-based therapies.

This case report describes severe liver injury in a young patient after prolonged overuse of vitamin A, which resolved after cessation.

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 found that hyaluronic acid increased the size of hair follicle germ-like aggregates and the number of proliferative cells but did not maintain specific markers during the process.

This study found that using hemocoagulase combined with platelet-rich plasma during total hip replacement surgery led to reduced perioperative blood loss and improved early joint range of motion in osteoarthritis patients.

This study found that AHCC supplementation significantly reduced alopecia severity in Ara-C treated rats and mitigated liver injury-related side effects in mice treated with 6-MP and MTX.

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 case report highlights that a patient developed alopecia areata following treatment with sofosbuvir and ribavirin for chronic hepatitis C.

In this study, hair-follicle-associated pluripotent stem cell implantation improved functional recovery and reduced inflammation in a mouse model of intracerebral hemorrhage.

This case study of a patient with a variant in the extracellular region of IL6ST suggests a potential expansion of the phenotypic spectrum for autosomal dominant hyper-IgE syndrome, warranting further investigation.

This review highlights that Cyproterone acetate combined with ethinylestradiol is highly effective for treating severe acne and hirsutism in women with hyperandrogenism, and it also provides benefits for cycle control and mood improvement, according to the analysis of 78 studies.

LIPH mutations cause woolly hair in some Chinese people.

This study found that HIF-P4H-2 function in FoxD1-lineage cells is crucial for normal hair follicle development and homeostasis in mice, implicating disrupted HIF, TGF-β, and Notch signaling pathways in associated defects.

The study reported a significant genotype–phenotype correlation in prepubescent males with XLHED, particularly in the severity of skin and hair manifestations between those with different EDA mutations.
