This case report suggests that Kawasaki disease should be considered in the differential diagnosis for children presenting with alopecia following a febrile illness with mucositis and conjunctivitis.

This article discusses a case study supporting the reclassification of KID syndrome as an ectodermal dysplasia, introducing a potential treatment combination that may alleviate symptoms in affected patients.

This study found that dexamethasone treatment inhibited the inflammatory response and the induction of ornithine decarboxylase activity in mouse skin after TPA application, although the effect on ODC was weaker during the hyperplastic stage.

This discussion suggests that acquired progressive kinking of hair in androgen-dependent scalp areas may indicate the early stages of androgenetic alopecia with a poor prognosis, but it offers no new clinical findings.

This review discusses methods to better identify unsafe donor areas in patients with diffuse unpatterned alopecia, emphasizing non-surgical management when specific diagnostic criteria are met, but reports no new clinical results.

This study developed BroadAMP-GPT, a computational-experimental framework, to discover new antimicrobial peptides, identifying candidates effective against multidrug-resistant pathogens. Notably, AMP_S13 showed strong stability, low toxicity, and efficacy in infection models, highlighting the platform's potential in combating antimicrobial resistance.

This review suggests that PDRN shows promise as a safe and versatile regenerative agent for wound healing and other dermatological applications, based on its dual mechanisms and clinical evidence of efficacy.

This review explains the genetic diversity of sheep wool keratin-associated protein genes and explores how this variation might be leveraged for selective breeding to enhance wool fiber traits.

This study found that polymorphisms in the KAP8.2 gene in Chinese Inner Mongolia cashmere goats are associated with variations in cashmere fibre diameter, suggesting its potential as a molecular marker for this trait.

This study found that overexpression and knockdown of DKK4 influence genes involved in hair follicle growth and development in Angora rabbits and identified specific SNPs in DKK4 associated with wool quality, notably showing that the TT/GG haplotype combination relates to higher fibre diameters.

This study found that polymeric micelle formulations significantly improved the targeted delivery of adapalene to hair follicles compared to standard Differin® products, which suggests potential advantages in treating hair follicle-related conditions and reducing side effects.

This study found that the K6/ODC transgenic mouse model is highly sensitive to identifying genotoxic carcinogens, showing 100% concordance with traditional rodent bioassays.

This study found that DKK1-targeting siRNA, which may activate the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, showed hair growth results in mice similar to those treated with the FDA-approved minoxidil, suggesting potential as an androgenetic alopecia therapy.

This study reported that Dkk4-knockout mice showed disrupted hair follicle patterning, suggesting a WNT-DKK axis may influence regional specificities in hair follicle induction related to androgenetic alopecia.

Diphencyprone initially increases mouse hair growth, then slows it, possibly due to changes in specific protein levels.

In this case study, DDS treatment for LABD was complicated by hemolytic anemia and alopecia, suggesting the need for careful monitoring of these potential side effects.

This study observed that PCE-DP may improve skin pigmentation by increasing epidermal turnover and inhibiting melanin uptake and inflammation in human epidermal keratinocytes.

This research found that variations in the KRTAP gene family are likely responsible for the diverse hair phenotypes seen among mammals, influenced by gene repertoire differences, expression, and evolutionary factors.

In this study, D6D knockout mice showed severe deficiency in AA and DHA, leading to unexpected effects on skin health, fertility, and immune cell development.

This study suggests that chronic treatment with TPA in mouse skin selectively expands a keratinocyte subpopulation hyperinducible for ODC, which may be a key target for neoplastic transformation.

This study suggests that PDCD4 regulates keratinocyte proliferation and contact inhibition, playing a role in epidermal homeostasis and wound healing.

In this study, a case of dissecting cellulitis of the scalp was reported in a man after starting dupilumab therapy, highlighting potential immune pathways involved and the importance of recognizing such paradoxical inflammatory reactions to prevent irreversible alopecia.

This study identified three genes in the ovine KAP13 family on chromosome 1 and found that a specific allele of KRTAP13-2 is associated with improved wool fibre diameter uniformity in Chinese Tan sheep, suggesting its potential use as a marker for enhancing wool traits.

This study reports that KRTAP-like proteins, which resemble keratin-associated proteins found in mammals, are also present in the cornified teeth of various lamprey species, suggesting these proteins may serve similar functions in skin appendages across different vertebrates despite independent evolutionary origins.

This study demonstrated that a daily oral supplement of 1000 mg Kera-Diet® improved hair and nail conditions in women experiencing acute telogen effluvium and brittle nail syndrome over three months.

This report describes two Saudi brothers with dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis who exhibited normal hair shafts despite their condition.

This study found that individuals with heterozygous truncation-type variants in the *DSP* gene exhibit lower skin temperature and higher transepidermal water loss, with specific microscopic skin changes and pseudomonilethrix.

In this study, variation in the KRTAP15-1 gene in goats was linked to changes in cashmere fibre diameter, with specific variants showing dominant or recessive effects.

This study reports two cases where acquired perforating dermatosis was localized to the scalp and coincided with acute diffuse alopecia, suggesting perifollicular inflammation may link the two conditions.

This study found that prostaglandin D2 promotes androgen receptor and AKT signaling in human dermal papilla cells through the DP2 receptor, potentially contributing to androgenetic alopecia.
