This study identified two novel mutations in the CDH3 gene causing HJMD in a Chinese patient, expanding the genetic and phenotypic understanding of the disorder.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

This study found that D'orenone blocks root hair growth by increasing PIN2 protein abundance, leading to reduced auxin concentration, but external auxin can reverse these effects.

This research identified a genetic mutation in Brachypodium distachyon that initially allows root hair initiation but fails to elongate them, while also affecting root growth and nitrate sensitivity; the mutation is linked to a previously uncharacterized cyclin-dependent kinase-like gene.

This study found that patients with Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis exhibit lower levels and activity of DNase1, impairing NET degradation, and suggests DNase1 administration as a potential treatment.

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.

In this study, individuals with a c.1072C > T mutation in the EDAR gene showed more hair shaft deformations compared to non-mutation carriers, highlighting EDAR's role in hair follicle development.

This study observed that northern elephant seals with skin disease had elevated pollutants like PCBs in their bodies, suggesting a potential link to the condition's unknown etiology.

This study found that actively targeted AN2728-loaded nanocarriers reduced inflammation and improved skin condition in a mouse model of psoriasiform inflammation compared to free drug and non-targeted nanoparticles.

In this study, nandrolone decanoate treatment in rats caused persistent diestrus and altered steroid receptor expression and sex hormones, especially at higher doses, with partial reversibility at lower doses over time.

This study investigated the effects of nandrolone decanoate on adult rabbits and reported that administering 10 mg/kg for 15 days caused harmful histological changes in the heart, liver, and kidneys, including inflammation and tissue degeneration.

This case study reported that Dupilumab treatment improved eczema, itch, and hair condition in a girl with Netherton Syndrome, as shown by over 40% improvement in various dermatological scores; however, significant flares of ichthyosis linearis circumflexa persisted.

This study found that the PPARγ modulator NAC-GED-0507-Levo may protect hair follicles from chemotherapy-induced damage, potentially offering a strategy to address irreversible hair loss in cancer patients.

This study found that a patient with giant axonal degeneration had unique hair abnormalities such as trichorrhexis nodosa and altered S:N ratios, unlike her relatives but comparable to unrelated controls.

This abstract discusses Netherton Syndrome, a genetic disorder with a characteristic triad of symptoms caused by SPINK5 gene mutation, and reports no new clinical findings or treatment advances.

This case report describes a 54-year-old woman with familial dyskeratotic comedones who experienced slight improvement in her skin lesions after three months of treatment with topical retinoids and urea cream.

This study found that nitrate, rather than ammonium, significantly enhances phosphate starvation responses in plants through a regulatory cascade involving NIGT1, SPX, and PHR1 proteins.

This study found that the ID2 gene was highly expressed in bulge-derived keratinocytes when exposed to contact sensitizers and may serve as a marker to distinguish sensitizers from irritants during in vitro testing.

This study demonstrated that AtVLN4 plays a role in root hair growth by regulating actin organization in a calcium-dependent manner.

This case series reported that low-dose naltrexone may benefit patients with lichen planopilaris by reducing scalp symptoms and slowing disease progression, with no adverse effects observed in the patients.

In this study, TCDD administered to male rats down-regulated EGF receptor in liver plasma membranes and increased protein kinase activity, suggesting EGF receptor–mediated toxicological effects.

This case report describes a father with HOXC13-associated pure hair-nail ectodermal dysplasia, presenting with severe nail dystrophy affecting all digits and notable hypotrichosis or complete alopecia.

This study observed that DDAIP-HCl enhanced the permeation of minoxidil through human cadaver skin, suggesting potential for improved treatment efficacy in male pattern hair loss.

This study found that transcription factors HOXC13, LEF1, and FOXN1 repress DSG4 transcription, with the Notch pathway possibly involved in maintaining DSG4 expression in hair follicles.

This study found that nestin-expressing hair follicle-derived cells express higher levels of certain neurotrophic factors and neural markers, indicating potential for neuroregenerative therapy applications.

Zeb2 is crucial for nerve repair by controlling Schwann cell function.

This study suggests that nephronectin (NPNT) could serve as a novel prognostic marker for poor prognosis in a subgroup of breast cancer patients, associated with specific NPNT staining patterns.

In this study, researchers optimized fast-dissolving tablets of nifedipine using a systematic approach, resulting in formulations that demonstrated rapid disintegration, enhanced dissolution profiles, and improved solubility, potentially improving oral delivery for patients requiring poorly soluble antihypertensive medication.

This study observed that mice with a Cx43 mutation exhibited slower and asynchronous hair regrowth with severe cuticle weathering, mimicking aspects of hair phenotype in some ODDD patients.
