This case report describes a family with autosomal dominant transmission of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans, with observed treatment refractoriness in multiple topical and systemic therapies.

This article discusses the human KRT72 wild-type allele's role in hair formation and reports no new research findings.

This study identified a new heterozygous mutation in the connexin 26 gene (c.263C>T; p.Ala88Val) in a premature neonate with KID syndrome, who later died from complications.

This study found that basal cell carcinomas show strong expression of vitamin D receptors at both mRNA and protein levels, suggesting a potential role in tumor growth regulation.

This report documents a novel alanine to valine substitution in the GJB2 gene in a Japanese girl with severe keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome, suggesting a potential link to her severe recurrent infections and immunodeficiency.

This study found that keratin K1014chim expression in mice did not reduce epidermal cell proliferation but increased susceptibility to benign tumors, challenging previous beliefs about K10's role in inhibiting tumor development.

This article presents two cases of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans and reviews its features, highlighting characteristic progression from keratosis pilaris in infancy to cicatricial alopecia in childhood.

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 study found that both the natural ligand 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) and the synthetic agonist LG190178 bind similarly to the vitamin D receptor's coregulator motifs, suggesting similar biological functions.

This study found that variations in the genes PDCD4, miR-21, and miR-449b may significantly influence breast cancer progression, with higher PDCD4 serum levels linked to increased breastfeeding.

This study suggests that caffeine may enhance hair growth and be beneficial for cosmetic applications due to its high binding affinity to keratin, but further validation is needed.

This study suggests that keratoacanthomas may be distinguished from squamous cell carcinoma by identifying hair follicle structures, based on keratin expression and histological features observed in tumor samples.

This report describes a neurometabolic disorder linked to gain-of-function variants in the ODC1 gene, characterized by developmental delay, ectodermal abnormalities, and notable facial and neuroimaging features.

Among men with androgenetic alopecia, this study found that taking 5 mg of KX-826 twice daily significantly increased hair count compared to a placebo, with the treatment being well-tolerated and no serious adverse effects reported.

In this study, targeting ornithine decarboxylase overexpression to hair follicle keratinocytes in mice was sufficient to promote skin tumor development without additional tumor promoters.

This study found that KY19382 can effectively promote hair regeneration and follicle neogenesis in mice and human hair models by activating Wnt/β-catenin signalling, suggesting potential use for alopecia treatment.

This study found that UV exposure in human skin induces IL-10 production by macrophages, while Langerhans cells are depleted and their IL-12 production is downregulated.

This study found that human hair follicles serve as a crucial reservoir for Langerhans cells, which repopulate the epidermis depleted by ultraviolet B exposure.

This study found that AiQingHua oil improved microcirculation and promoted hair regeneration in mice with testosterone-induced alopecia.

The researchers reported that lavender shampoo activated alpha brain waves, suggesting calming and memory effects, while geranium shampoo enhanced arousal and memory by stimulating brain waves in the laryngeal lobe.

This study found that the Dongeui Hot Spring Water complex (Dongui Hot Spring Water CPX), containing sea slug extract and panthenol, demonstrated higher antioxidant activity and cell proliferation, suggesting potential benefits for preventing hair loss and improving scalp health.

In laboratory conditions, this study found that the Dongeui Hot Spring Water Complex, containing sea slug extract, demonstrated enhanced antioxidant activity and promoted hair papilla cell proliferation compared to a control, suggesting potential benefits for scalp health and hair loss prevention.

This study evaluated sea cucumber extract as a scalp cosmetic and found that it effectively improved oil-moisture balance, hydration, redness, and hair shine on the scalp. The authors recommend further research into its antioxidant properties for scalp care.

In this study, researchers observed that aroma oil-enhanced scalp scaling significantly improved scalp conditions over 8 weeks, marked by increased water and oil content, reduced keratin and surface value, and higher satisfaction in hair-related outcomes compared to the control group.

This study found that the newly developed hair product K-30 increased both protein content and weight in chemically damaged hair to levels similar to healthy hair, unlike traditional products that only temporarily improve texture.

In this survey-based study, researchers found that although scalp tonics are positively perceived for scalp health, minoxidil is viewed negatively due to inconvenient use and side effects, suggesting a need for improved hair loss treatments that enhance safety, effectiveness, and user satisfaction.

In this study conducted using an in vitro model with rabbits, researchers found that citral from lemongrass oil, especially at a 1% concentration, improved comedone erythema and tissue hyperplasia, suggesting its potential as a treatment for comedone acne.

This study found that weight control efforts among people in their 20s and 30s were associated with decreased skin moisture, elasticity, and increased hair loss and thinning.

This study observed that weight control efforts in people in their 20s and 30s led to decreased moisture, elasticity, and increased hair loss and thinning, impacting skin and scalp health.
