This study found that deletion of c-Jun and JunB in mouse bulge hair follicle stem cells was sufficient to trigger psoriasis-like skin disease through thymic stromal lymphopoietin signaling.

This review discusses the management of hirsutism in women, highlighting promising treatments like metformin for polycystic ovarian syndrome, and emphasizes the importance of understanding hair growth cycles and realistic treatment expectations; it reports no new clinical results.

This study analyzed gene expression changes during the autumn coat color change in mountain hares and found conserved gene regulation with snowshoe hares, highlighting its role in seasonal camouflage adaptation.

This review discusses the management of androgenic disorders in women, highlighting that treatment is generally more effective than recognized, though improvement may take weeks or months to appear.

This study reports that new compounds with anti-androgenic effects were found to counteract testosterone in animals without significant estrogenic activity, indicating potential for managing androgen-related conditions.

This case report describes a patient with breast cancer who developed female androgenetic alopecia after starting tamoxifen therapy.

Hair can indicate early signs of metabolic disorders, with issues like protein deficiency stopping hair growth.

This study indicates that hair analyses for calcium and phosphorus are unlikely to be useful for assessing the nutritional status of horses, suggesting soil and feed analyses as more effective alternatives.

In this study, topical 5% roxithromycin was effective in restoring hair growth in about half of individuals with androgenetic alopecia without causing adverse effects.

This study found that minoxidil induced cardiovascular toxicity in marmosets at higher doses than those affecting dogs, potentially due to the drug's exaggerated pharmacological effects.

The cause of alopecia areata was unknown, and while various treatments existed, no best treatment was agreed upon.

This study found that hair absorbs significant amounts of NaBr from solution, with absorption increasing linearly with solution concentration and additional effects noted with acidic or basic solutions.

In this study, researchers identified a new dominant mutation in Hairless mice, called Pied, resulting from a deletion in the Adam10 gene, which causes freckle-like skin pigmentation by inhibiting melanocyte expansion.

In this letter, thrombocytosis was associated with the use of low-molecular-weight heparin in a patient with adrenal cortical carcinoma, highlighting a potential side effect of this treatment.

This article reports the first case of group B streptococcal meningitis in an HIV-positive patient who had previously undergone a splenectomy.

This study demonstrated that the biomimetic peptide PTP20 may help preserve hair pigmentation and reduce greying by enhancing melanocyte function and increasing melanin production in human hair follicles.

This historical observation found that parathyroid extract treatment in newborn rats led to a condition resembling scleroderma, characterized by skin hardening, calcium deposition, and possible necrosis.

This study reported successful outcomes in over 40 patients undergoing reparative surgical techniques for previously unsuccessful hair restoration, with significant improvements in appearance despite potential challenges like limited donor hair and scalp scarring.

The document concludes that an inherited nail condition often improves on its own, and spironolactone effectively treats acne in women.

This study found that administerating 10 mg/kg intramuscular fulvestrant did not stimulate hair regrowth in Pomeranian dogs with alopecia X, though higher doses may warrant further investigation.

This correspondence critiques a previous report advocating finasteride for frontal fibrosing alopecia, arguing that the evidence on its safety and effectiveness is inconclusive, particularly due to methodological limitations.

This study found that medroxyprogesterone injections led to partial or complete hair regrowth in some Pomeranian dogs with alopecia X, though their IGF-1 levels remained unchanged.

This report documents two cases of eruptive nevi occurring in the skin folds of children with Langerhans cell histiocytosis.

This study found that serum levels of zinc, copper, and selenium were significantly lower in patients with alopecia areata compared to healthy controls, regardless of the number of hair loss patches.

This study reported that administering salicylates to wounds in adult mice promoted wound healing patterns similar to embryonic wounds, enabling complete wound regeneration and reduced scarring by activating AMPK and subsequent signaling pathways.
