Malnutrition can change hair color due to altered copper and zinc levels.

This report suggests an association between eosinophilic folliculitis and sustained complete response in a Sézary syndrome patient treated with mogamulizumab, although regular monitoring is necessary to prevent relapse.

This report observed that a male developed erythema multiforme linked to both topical and oral minoxidil use for androgenetic alopecia, supported by eruption recurrence with reapplication.

This study observed a new skin disease in farmed mink in Canada, suggesting that an unidentified infectious agent, in association with secondary bacterial infection, may cause the condition.

This study describes a new mite species from marmots in a city park in Washington, noting that infested marmots displayed significant hair loss and tissue abnormalities.

This case report describes a rare instance of dermatophytosis in a young cat caused by Microsporum gypseum, confirmed by molecular analyses to be Arthroderma gypseum.

This study identified mefloquine as a potent inducer of lethal ER stress that effectively eliminated vemurafenib-resistant and sensitive melanoma cells, suggesting its potential for repurposing as a melanoma treatment.

In this case study, a 25-year-old female with premature hair graying achieved over 90% conversion of gray hair to black hair after 5 months of treatment with a topical peptide solution and hair supplements.

In this study, RT1640 was found to promote hair pigment system regeneration and expand melanocyte stem cell pools in a mouse model, suggesting potential applications for aging-related hair disorders.

This study found that all lesions in mice treated with a new topical formulation, WR 279,396, healed completely without relapse, outperforming other formulations and showing no toxicity.

This study found that monochromatic excimer light achieved complete remission in over 50% of plaque psoriasis cases and various levels of improvement in other skin conditions, including vitiligo and mycosis fungoides.

In this study, researchers used proteomic and metabolomic analyses to explore hair follicle development in embryonic cashmere goats, identifying significant roles for the oxytocin signalling pathway and associated networks in this process.

This study suggests an association between DNA methylation changes in hair follicles and inherited color dilution in Rex rabbits, contributing to a deeper understanding of epigenetic influences on rabbit pigmentation.

In this survey of dermatologists, pimozide was most commonly identified as the preferred first-line antipsychotic for treating delusions of parasitosis, followed by risperidone.

This study concluded that mineral deficiencies in sheep and goats grazing in Sana’a Governorate, Yemen, were linked to poor health and performance, recommending mineral supplementation to improve their condition.

This study identified novel compound heterozygous mutations in the DSG4 gene in a Japanese patient with congenital hypotrichosis, suggesting overlap between localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis and monilethrix.

In this article, a rare case of black piedra, a zoonotic hair disease typically found in tropical climates, was documented in Russia due to close contact between an infected and a healthy person, with insights into its epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnostic methods, and treatment discussed.

This study found that maternal Nano-Se supplementation in cashmere goats improved antioxidant status and promoted secondary hair follicle development in fetuses at 110 days.

This study found that in sheep, the microRNA oar-miR-377 regulates hair follicle development by targeting the SLC24A2 gene, and identified a genetic variation associated with wool quality, suggesting potential markers for breeding.

This study reports the development of a microemulsion using Momordica charantia extract, which demonstrated strong antioxidant and 5α-reductase inhibitory activity, potentially aiding hair loss management. The microemulsion was stable over 12 weeks, suggesting its future potential for cosmetic or pharmacological applications.

This systematic review found that toluidine blue may be valuable for diagnosing and treating specific skin tumors in the context of Mohs micrographic surgery, though literature on its use is limited and mostly qualitative.

In this study, a hair tonic containing black fungus extract was shown to have antifungal activity against Malassezia furfur, with the 70% extract concentration providing the strongest effect.

This study presents evidence suggesting that populations now categorized as Black American are the original inhabitants of the Americas, with genetic heritage and identity obscured by historical reclassification to strip sovereign rights.

This study developed a new permanganometric method for determining minoxidil in pharmaceutical formulations, offering a simple and rapid alternative to chromatographic procedures with recovery rates between 94.5% and 95.2%.

This report on two Indian male siblings with monilethrix highlights trichoscopy's role in diagnosing this condition, which can be complicated by early-onset androgenetic alopecia.
