Finasteride helped treat a 28-year-old's facial skin condition.

This case report describes a novel mutation in the CDH3 gene in an 11-year-old Iranian boy with sparse scalp hair and macular dystrophy, leading to altered P-cadherin synthesis.

This case study reports that low-dose testosterone therapy improved libido and sexual functions in a 36-year-old fragile X carrier female with hypoactive sexual desire disorder when monitored regularly for lab parameters.

This review explores the potential of selective 11β-HSD1 inhibitors to improve insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes, emphasizing the need for more clinical research and reports no new clinical results.

In this case report, researchers describe a 13-year-old phenotypic female with 46,XY karyotype, previously misdiagnosed with androgen insensitivity syndrome, who was later identified to have 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 3 deficiency, underscoring the importance of genetic and hormonal tests for accurate diagnosis of sex development disorders.

This study found that applying ferrous ferric chloride skin lotions to newborn mice stimulated skin cell proliferation and differentiation, increased hair growth, and inhibited alopecia-related hair loss.

This report describes the first suspected case of dermatologic adverse effects from subcutaneous furosemide in cats, noting ulcerative skin lesions that resolved after switching the formulation.

In this study, HED patients with COVID-19 showed a higher risk of postinfection fatigue and hair loss compared to controls, suggesting they are more susceptible to long-term consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection.

This study found that frontal fibrosing alopecia involves distinct molecular changes, such as downregulation of steroid and cholesterol pathways and upregulation of fibrotic and immune response genes, which may help guide treatment strategies.

This case study reports that pancreatic enzyme replacement and fatty acid supplementation improved symptoms of fat malabsorption and essential fatty acid deficiency in a patient with EDS-4.

This study found that canine hair follicle stem cells are located in the isthmus/bulge region of the hair follicle, surrounded by telocytes.

This review discusses the function and pathology of hair follicles and highlights the potential of using dogs as a model to study human hair and stem cell disorders, but presents no new experimental results.

This study found that the Arabidopsis thaliana protein Formin 2 localizes to plasmodesmata and is crucial for regulating their permeability by anchoring actin filaments, which affects virus susceptibility.

In this study, researchers used a chemical cocktail and hydrogel microspheres to successfully guide fibroblasts into dermal papilla cells, promoting wound healing and in situ hair follicle regeneration while reducing scar formation, in both in vitro and in vivo experiments.

This study found that the dysfunction of hair follicle dermal stem cells with age contributes to hair follicle aging and hair loss in mice.

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 describes the process of isolating and analyzing multipotent stem cells from mouse hair follicles for potential use in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

This study found that postnatal treatment with recombinant EDA normalized adult teeth, improved sweating, and restored normal lacrimation in dogs with XLHED, suggesting its potential as a treatment for the condition.

This paper presents consensus guidelines for standardized diagnostic criteria and assessment methods for frontal fibrosing alopecia to improve clinical research and data collection globally.

This study found that combining high-frequency ultrasound with clinical examination significantly improved the diagnostic accuracy of invisible subcutaneous lesions from 47.3% to 80.8%, especially for conditions like epidermoid cysts and lipomas, although it was less effective for rarer lesions such as dermatofibromas.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia is a scarring hair loss condition mainly affecting postmenopausal women, with unclear causes.

This review discusses the potential of using high-throughput and high-content screening methods for drug repositioning in rare diseases and reports no new results.

This article proposes renaming frontal fibrosing alopecia to frontal fibrosing alopecia syndrome to better reflect its varied presentations and enhance understanding and treatment approaches.

This study explored the potential of human hair keratin as a filtration material, finding that it may effectively absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutanesulfonate. The researchers reported significant binding affinities through molecular simulations, supporting further investigation into keratin's use for water purification.

This article reviews the genetic mutations associated with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the roles of EDA gene isoforms and related receptors.

This study developed a detailed classification system for functional androgenization in females that may enhance diagnosis and personalized treatment by identifying individual dysfunctions.

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.

A new EDA gene mutation was found in a Chinese family with a specific skin disorder.

This study found that stem cells from mouse hair follicles successfully reconstructed the ocular surface in most limbal stem cell deficiency mice, demonstrating potential for treating the condition in a mouse model.

In this study, a novel DCAF17 gene mutation was identified in a Chinese family, suggesting a potential role in pancreatic β cell dysfunction and diabetes development in Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome.
