A specific gene mutation causes sparse, brittle hair in a family.

This study suggests that the mechanical robustness of hair may be enhanced by the binding interactions of keratin-associated proteins, particularly KAP8.1, with intermediate filament proteins.

This study found that IPL treatment in females with facial hirsutism can trigger hair growth in untreated areas near those that undergo photoepilation, especially in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome.

ICL is a condition with low CD4+ T cells like AIDS but not caused by HIV, and normal CD4+ T cell counts may vary between men and women.

This program description outlines the Fellowship Training Program's goal of developing Fellows' skills in performing safe and aesthetically sound hair restoration surgery, reporting no new research findings.

This review discusses the importance of heme oxygenase in skin physiology and disease, but it reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight its potential as a treatment target for conditions like atopic dermatitis and psoriasis.

This clinical study explores the causes, progression, and treatment of hirsutism in females, noting its association with tumors in endocrine glands, but does not report new clinical results.

This study outlines the features and diagnosis of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease, highlighting its association with specific genes, its prevalence among pigmented races, and treatment with systemic steroids and immunosuppressants.

This study developed a composite product from decellularized human placental connective tissue matrix and placental extract, finding that the combination showed improved biochemical and mechanical properties compared to each component alone, suggesting its potential use for treating chronic and deeper wounds.

This article reviews factors influencing hidradenitis suppurativa, its clinical diagnosis, and the diverse management approaches but presents no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers developed a novel delivery system using hyaluronic acid gels to encapsulate Huperzine A for Alzheimer's treatment, achieving extended release over 20 days and significantly improving pathology and behavior in mice, including enhanced memory and reduced neuroinflammation.

Mutations in the hHb6 gene cause the hair disorder monilethrix.

This source explains that Equine Cushing’s disease, or PPID, in horses is due to the degeneration of brain cells producing dopamine, leading to elevated cortisol levels and characteristic symptoms; it outlines diagnosis methods and emphasizes life-long pergolide treatment to manage the condition.

This study found that glycolytic metabolism and lactate production are crucial for hair follicle stem cell activation, and manipulating these processes can stimulate the hair cycle.

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

This study found that peptidylarginine deiminase type III and trichohyalin are coincidentally expressed in the infant rat hair follicle, but trichohyalin deimination occurs after their expression during development.

This study found that six months of using 0.5% finasteride cream did not significantly reduce hair number or thickness in women with idiopathic facial hirsutism, though patients perceived less hair growth.

This study found that a combination therapy of Diane 35 with finasteride was more effective at reducing hirsutism scores in women with idiopathic hirsutism or polycystic ovary syndrome after 3 months compared to Diane 35 alone.

In this study using a transgenic mouse model, Id2 overexpression in hair follicle stem cells prolonged quiescence by affecting gene expression, partly independent from BMP signaling.

This report describes two cases of urticarial id reaction linked to tinea capitis profunda, highlighting a potential new etiology for this rare condition.

This piece reflects on the past year of editing the Assistants' Corner and presents no new research findings.

This article reviews uncombable hair syndrome, highlighting its symptoms, potential diagnosis methods, and the suggestion for biotin supplements, but it reports no new empirical results.

This article discusses the role of human scalp hair follicles in neurohormone production and their model potential for studying neuroendocrine signaling, reporting no experimental results.

In this study, researchers found that in the UK, laser treatment for hidradenitis suppurativa had the highest participant eligibility and preference compared to other interventions, highlighting its potential priority in future trials.

This article traces the historical development of hidradenitis suppurativa's naming and classification, noting that naming disagreements persist despite extensive research.

This report discusses a request for a health hazard evaluation at Equifax in St. Petersburg, Florida concerning potential workplace exposures related to reported employee health issues, particularly hair loss, but provides no new results.

This paper reviews how studying the microbiome of the freshwater polyp Hydra can inform new, microbiome-targeting therapies for human hair follicle and skin diseases; it presents no new experimental findings.
