This review discusses the plasticity of stem cell populations and their ability to switch between functions for tissue homeostasis and regeneration, emphasizing environmental and hormonal influences, and reports no new results.

This study found that ectopic expression of Whn in transgenic mice caused impaired differentiation in epidermis and hair follicles, with hair growth defects and severe urinary tract issues leading to hydronephrosis.

This study demonstrated that intact adult human dermal papillae can induce hair growth when implanted into mouse hair follicles, highlighting their potential for advancing hair follicle biology and therapeutic approaches.

In this report, a 23-year-old woman developed nephrotic syndrome and was diagnosed with lupus nephritis after receiving the first dose of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine, but causation is not established.

This study identifies comedonal or cystic fibrofolliculomas as novel diagnostic clues for earlier recognition of Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome, potentially facilitating timely surveillance of associated systemic complications.

This study found that weanling rats fed diets with oxidized rapeseed oil or lard had increased heart lipid levels, various symptoms of fat toxicity, and organ-specific tissue damage.

This study developed a kidney-specific knockout mouse model lacking the Flcn gene, which recapitulates human Birt-Hogg-Dubé kidney tumorigenesis and shows that mTOR pathway inhibition with rapamycin can suppress tumor growth.

This study used association rule mining and network analysis to identify frequently combined herb sets for treating alopecia from 56 articles, highlighting the potential of Polygonum multiflorum, Angelica sinensis, and Ligusticum chuanxiong in traditional medicine and suggesting further bioinformatics research to understand their efficacy.

Minoxidil, when used with a diuretic and β-blocking agent, can safely lower blood pressure in most children with severe hypertension due to kidney disease, with minimal side effects.

This review summarizes recent research on the molecular properties and functions of L-PGDS and PGD2, but reports no new findings, highlighting their pathophysiological roles and guiding future studies.

This article discusses the potential health risks associated with long-term use of finasteride and dutasteride for prostate and hair loss treatments, suggesting risks may include non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and other metabolic issues.

The CSTAR registry, the largest in China for SLE, reports more than 25,000 patients registered since 2009, detailing demographics, clinical characteristics, and providing data for future studies.

This study found that alopecia areata patients had a slightly decreased overall cancer risk, with significantly lower risks for some cancers but higher risks for lymphoma, breast, kidney, and urinary bladder cancers.

This study found that Zizyphus jujuba fruit aqueous extract may reduce nephrotoxicity caused by ibuprofen in rats by lowering serum urea and creatinine and improving kidney antioxidant enzyme activities.

This review describes how liver and kidney diseases and diabetes may affect ethyl glucuronide levels in hair, impacting forensic and clinical interpretations, but reports no new experimental results.

This report describes a case where oral valganciclovir treatment led to improved skin texture and hair regrowth in a patient with trichodysplasia spinulosa.

A kidney transplant patient on cyclosporin experienced unexpected severe hair loss, which improved with treatment adjustments.

This study describes a novel hairless mutant rat strain, F344-Hr(krh), developed via ENU mutagenesis, which provides a model for skin disease and potentially focal glomerulosclerosis due to specific genetic mutations.

In this reported case, an immunosuppressive regimen including tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil was associated with a total regression of hidradenitis suppurativa activity over one year, while cyclosporine alone had no effect.

This report suggests that patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax should be evaluated for FLCN mutations, as they may indicate Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome and associated cancer risks.

This review discusses recent insights into Birt–Hogg–Dube syndrome, including the functions of the FLCN gene and clinical recommendations for screening and treatment, but it reports no new experimental results.

This letter discusses adverse events related to low-dose oral minoxidil for alopecia, highlighting age-related risks and stressing the importance of contraindication awareness with no new clinical results presented.

This study found that the risk of urinary stone disease increased significantly in patients with severe androgenetic alopecia, and that testosterone deficiency was more frequent among these patients.

A woman with anorexia developed gout from self-induced vomiting.

This article describes the first documented case of acquired uncombable hair syndrome in a 39-year-old woman, contributing to the understanding of this rare condition.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of YH0618 granules in preventing chemotherapy-induced hair loss in breast cancer patients through a randomized, double-blind, multi-center clinical trial, focusing on potential mechanisms related to kidney deficiency as understood in Chinese Medicine.
