In this study, researchers identified a rare form of hereditary hypotrichosis linked to mutations in the LSS gene, which affects cholesterol biosynthesis and is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.

This mini-review discusses human hair follicle development and summarizes genetic disorders linked to abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, structure, or regeneration, but reports no new experimental results.

This paper reviews the genetic aspects of hair disorders and suggests that understanding these genes could advance treatment and diagnosis; it reports no new experimental findings.

This review highlights the significant role of next-generation sequencing in uncovering the genetic basis of hair disorders, identifying 28 nonsyndromic conditions linked to specific genes.

This article discusses genetic hair disorders in children, outlining diagnostic approaches and highlighting the significance of distinguishing isolated hair defects from those associated with syndromes, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, genetic variants in the KRT25 and SP6 genes were found to be responsible for curly hair in horses, with the KRT25 variant also causing hypotrichosis due to an epistatic effect.

This study found that combining microneedling with 5% minoxidil improved hair growth in Chinese men with androgenetic alopecia, possibly through activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This case report and literature review discusses Marie-Unna hereditary hypotrichosis and presents no new clinical results.

This report describes two cases of white piedra caused by Trichosporon inkin in a northern climate, detailing clinical findings and diagnosis without presenting new experimental results.

This study reported that squarticles, nanoparticle carriers made from sebum-derived lipids, significantly enhanced minoxidil delivery to hair follicles in vitro, increasing follicular uptake sevenfold and minimizing systemic absorption compared to a free control solution, while showing good skin tolerability.

This study found that extracellular factors from a specific developmental stage can promote hair follicle neogenesis in adult skin by facilitating interactions between fibroblasts and keratinocytes.

Advanced imaging techniques are crucial for accurately diagnosing Monilethrix, a rare hair disorder.

This article is a letter to the editor discussing hair graying and loss potentially induced by imatinib mesylate, but it does not provide new research results.

This article reviews various hair abnormalities observable through trichoscopy in conditions like monilethrix, trichorrhexis nodosa, and ectodermal dysplasias, with no new clinical findings reported.

This review discusses potential causes of alopecia and hair overgrowth in pediatric patients, detailing diagnostic techniques and treatments, but presents no new research findings.

This study found that FGF18 signaling helps protect hair follicles from radiation damage by maintaining the resting phase and supporting stem cell survival, potentially reducing radiation-induced hair loss.

This study investigated the effects of Wnt-3a, Wnt-5a, Wnt11, and Wnt-10b on the hair induction-ability of cultured dermal papilla cells.

This study found that dihydrotestosterone alters the balance of Wnt pathway regulators in dermal papilla cells, hindering hair follicle stem cell differentiation and contributing to hair follicle miniaturization.

This study suggests that enhancing endocannabinoid tone with an EMT-inhibitor may have anti-inflammatory effects and slightly increase sebaceous lipid production, which could be beneficial for dry skin conditions.

In this animal study, zinc deficiency in mice was linked to disrupted hair cycles and impaired hair regrowth, which were reversed by zinc supplementation.

This study explored the role of nine specific miRNAs in human hair follicles, revealing significant miRNA/mRNA correlations for miR-24, miR-31, and miR-106a and identifying target genes involved in hair biology.

This study found that a decrease in estradiol levels in women is associated with increased hair shedding due to weakened anchoring of telogen hairs.

This paper discusses the use of dermatoscopy as a fast, noninvasive technique for diagnosing hair shaft disorders and reports no new results; the authors highlight its advantages over traditional microscopy methods.

This review discusses newly identified non-Edg family lysophosphatidic acid receptors, detailing their roles in vascular development, platelet activation, and hair growth, and reports no clinical results.

This review explores genetic and lifestyle factors influencing hair diversity and reports no new findings, calling attention to the potential for future discoveries in genetic and epigenetic research.

This review discusses the role of lysophosphatidic acid in skin physiology and pathology, highlighting its significance in processes like wound healing and hair follicle development, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses diagnostic challenges and management approaches for pediatric hair disorders, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between acquired and congenital conditions, and reports no clinical results.

This review discusses the prognosis and treatment options for hair shaft disorders, finding no studies but suggesting some disorders improve with specific treatments like minoxidil and retinoids, while gentle hair care remains essential.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.

This study examined the genetic basis for the curly hair trait in Mangalitza pigs, finding two specific genetic variants that contribute to this distinctive phenotype through autosomal dominant inheritance.
