In this study, a novel heterozygous transition mutation in the KRT86 gene was identified, which may be pathogenic for monilethrix in a Chinese family.

In this study, TC-1 cells, resembling stromal cells formed by epithelial-mesenchymal transition, significantly affected the behavior of normal human keratinocytes, supporting the role of stromal cells in tumor progression.

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 concluded that overexpressing TERT and BMI1 in cultured human dermal papilla cells extended their lifespan and enhanced their ability to induce hair growth in mice.

This study reports that transgene insertion in homozygous transgenic mice causes irreversible hair loss and impaired immune function, linked to interruption of the hairless locus on Chromosome 14.

This paper describes the hGRα gene structure and its expression, focusing on the functional properties of the longest GRα isoform, but reports no new results.

This study found that a 671-base pair promoter sequence from the ultra-high-sulfur keratin gene is sufficient to direct tissue-specific and development-specific expression of a reporter gene during hair growth in transgenic mice.

This article discusses solitary hirsutism, emphasizing that treatment is mostly cosmetic unless contraception is also desired, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells inhibited A549 tumor growth but significantly promoted HT-29 tumor growth in mouse models, highlighting opposing effects depending on the cancer type.

This study found that "early" transit amplifying cells, marked by CD271, are the first keratinocyte stem cell progenitors with distinct features, playing a significant role in early epidermal differentiation and regeneration.

This study found that the genetic variants rs231775 and rs3087243 of the CTLA4 gene are not associated with alopecia areata in the Mexican population analyzed.

This study found various ABC transporters are transcribed in human hair follicles, suggesting their possible role in HF biology and potential for new therapeutic interventions.

This study developed a high-throughput method that identifies bioactive chemicals influencing DHT production in prostate cancer cells, with potential nutraceutical candidates including fucoxanthin, phenethyl caffeate, and Curcuma longa L. extract.

This study demonstrated that both HR isoforms are expressed in keratinocytes, but HRDelta1072-1126 lacks corepressor activity and may act as a coactivator by inhibiting HDAC recruitment to the VDR transcriptional complex.

This study suggests that the T allele of the SNP rs2476601 in the PTPN22 gene may increase the risk of alopecia areata, although further studies are necessary to validate this finding across different populations.

This study suggests that while PTH rP initially seemed to shorten the hair cycle by transitioning hair follicles from anagen to catagen, more relevant models indicate it ultimately accelerates and stimulates hair growth.

This review discusses the role of the hairless protein (HR) in alopecia and cancer, noting its potential importance in cancer cell growth and survival, and reports no new experimental results.

This review assesses existing knowledge about the 17q21.31 inversion polymorphism, highlighting its genetic structure differences across ancestries, associations with various diseases, and implications for precision medicine and drug discovery.

This study concluded that the best approach for detecting Androsta-1,4,6-triene-3,17-dione administration in horses is monitoring the metabolites M1b or M4 in urine, detectable up to 77 hours post-administration.

This article reviews the causes and treatments of hypertrichosis and hirsutism and reports no new clinical findings; the authors compare diagnostic strategies and discuss available treatment options.

This study found that the absence of Hif-p4h-2 in specific mouse skin cells disrupted hair follicle development, leading to hair loss due to irregular keratin formation and pathway signaling.

This study identified multiple mutations in the 5 alpha-reductase-2 gene among male pseudohermaphrodites in the Dominican Republic, suggesting they do not share a common ancestry.

This review highlights the role of matriptase in epithelial differentiation and cancer, noting that unregulated matriptase expression can enhance cancer progression in animal models, but reports no new experimental data.

This study found that in an Italian population, the HLA-DQB1*03 allele was associated with increased susceptibility to alopecia areata, particularly in cases with more than 50% hair loss.

This study found that high levels of parathyroid hormone-related protein expression can result in the production of shorter hair shafts, likely through effects on angiogenesis.

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 laboratory study concluded that TRPA1 and TRPV1 channels do not play a role in mechanotransduction processes in slowly adapting type II mechanoreceptors in isolated rat sinus hair follicles.

This study found that a newly identified mutation in the hairless gene in mice led to decreased Hr mRNA levels and changes in gene expression related to hair follicle development.
