The mutation causes hairless mice due to mislocalized and dysfunctional HR protein.

This review proposes a theoretical model for treating androgenetic alopecia using STEAP3 protein, based on recent findings about genetic mutations affecting molecular pathways, but emphasizes that this hypothesis needs validation through laboratory and clinical studies.

This study found that activation of delta-opioid receptors in keratinocytes may delay the expression of the PER2 gene, suggesting a possible link to cancer development through circadian rhythm disruption.

This study found that an extract from Justicia procumbens may prevent hair loss in a mouse model of androgenic alopecia by enhancing hair follicle cell proliferation and improving hair characteristics.

This study found that JAK1 and JAK2 inhibitors increase β-catenin activity in human hair follicle cells, suggesting an additional therapeutic mechanism for treating severe alopecia areata.

This study found that treating tobacco roots with specific peptides like Gly, GlyGly, and GlyAsp significantly increased root hair development and influenced gene expression, potentially through an epigenetic mechanism.

This review discusses how the nuclear lamina integrates biochemical and mechanical signals to influence gene expression and skin homeostasis, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Avicennia marina extract and its active compound avicequinone C inhibit enzymes and receptors related to androgenic alopecia, potentially supporting hair growth in cultured dermal papilla cells.

This paper describes the hGRα gene structure and its expression, focusing on the functional properties of the longest GRα isoform, but reports no new results.

This review summarizes the proposed model that describes how different shapes of 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 ligands interact with the vitamin D receptor to mediate genomic and rapid responses in cells.

This investigation reviews the potential impact of polyunsaturated fatty acids on thyroid hormone action and does not report new results, highlighting a need for further research on dietary treatment for hyperthyroidism.

Scientists used a special imaging technique to observe that hair follicle regeneration involves cell division and structural changes, mostly in the lower part of the follicle, and that the dermal papilla at the base is crucial for regrowth.

This study conducted in Batam City found a 10.79% prevalence of alopecia among 417 captured bats across seven species, with higher rates in fragmented urban forests associated with anthropogenic pressures, highlighting the influence of habitat conditions on bat health.

This review examines the roles of Smad-4 and Smad-7 in hair follicle differentiation and development through BMP signaling and TGFβ/Activin/BMP pathway inhibition but reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the potential of 4-azasteroids as 5α-reductase inhibitors for treating hirsutism, reporting their promising effects in animal studies but noting no clinical trials have been conducted yet.

This review discusses the role of glucocorticoids in treating severe inflammatory disorders and highlights their potential adverse effects, recommending dosage management to minimize these risks; no new clinical results are reported.

This study found that in lamivudine-resistant hepatitis B patients, tenofovir significantly reduced HBV DNA levels faster and more consistently than adefovir, reaching undetectable levels in all treated patients by 44 weeks.

This review summarizes the roles of bone morphogenetic proteins in the development and regulation of normal and diseased skin, but it does not provide new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of 5α-reductase enzymes in androgen action and related disorders, noting that their specific inhibitory drugs show promise for conditions like benign prostatic hypertrophy; it reports no new clinical results.

This study reports that the completeness of DNA degradation in hair during cornification varies among individuals and affects the success rates of forensic hair DNA analysis.

This case study found that a 7-year-old girl's crystalline cataract had sulfur-containing amino acids likely cystine, and was associated with abnormal hair conditions.

This review discusses gender identity disorder in Japan, highlighting the high prevalence and challenges in accessing appropriate treatment, and calls for wider understanding among medical professionals.

This article discusses the various roles of steroids in vertebrate organ systems and notes several glucocorticoids that were among the Top 200 Drugs by sales in the 2010s, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that deleting the Mof gene in mouse skin leads to severe defects in skin cell self-renewal, differentiation, and hair follicle growth, indicating that MOF is crucial for mitochondrial and ciliary gene expression and essential for skin development.

This review suggests that GABAergic neuroactive steroids modulated by alcohol could play a role in vulnerability to alcohol use disorders, providing a rationale for further therapeutic exploration.

This article discusses the role of clinical observation and microscopic correlation in American dermatology training and reports no new clinical results.

This research discusses Fahr syndrome, highlighting its association with abnormal brain calcifications and varied clinical symptoms in young to middle-aged adults. Diagnosis involves specific criteria and CT scans, but no specific treatment exists; therapy focuses on managing symptoms and underlying conditions.

This report suggests that for prostate cancer patients with cardiovascular disease, prescribing the GnRH antagonist degarelix may reduce cardiac events compared to using GnRH agonists, although prescribing should consider potential cardiac risks, particularly in patients with pre-existing conditions or older age.

This report describes a 55-year-old African woman with a 4-year history of frontotemporal alopecia and total eyebrow loss, who experienced scalp itching and had unsuccessfully undergone hair transplantation.

Vitamin D3 and its receptor are important for hair growth, and understanding receptors could help treat hair graying and skin cancer.
