In this case report, the authors describe a partial androgen insensitivity syndrome patient with a novel AR gene mutation, highlighting challenges in gender assignment decisions for infants with partial AIS.

The document explains the genetic causes and characteristics of inherited hair disorders.

This study found that oral probiotic supplementation over 12 weeks may improve hair growth, skin condition, metabolic health, and stress responses in Chinese adults with hair loss and a high risk of metabolic syndrome.

In this study, scalp hydration and pH levels were not significantly different between hijab-wearing and non-hijab-wearing women, suggesting that hijab-wearing does not impair scalp health if there's no history of underlying scalp or skin disorders and the hijab is not worn damp.

This article reviews optical coherence tomography for skin imaging and its potential clinical uses, but does not include new clinical findings.

This Ph.D. project aims to evaluate the self-assembling potential of hair keratin extracts and study the cellular response to both crude and purified keratins, highlighting their potential applications from biomedical to water remediation.

This article reviews recent imaging and genetic tool advances that enable in vivo study of hair regeneration and assessment of skin parameters, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that dandruff in Indian women is associated with a distinct scalp microbiome, including specific bacterial and unknown Malassezia species, with implications for nutrient homeostasis and cell-host adhesion pathways.

In this study, researchers observed that loose anagen hair syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by abnormal hair follicle structure and premature keratinization, possibly due to signaling and desmosomal component disturbances.

This study analyzed patients with X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata and identified novel mutations in the emopamil-binding protein gene, highlighting the need for genetic testing alongside biochemical analysis for accurate diagnosis.

Researchers found a new genetic mutation causing a rare hair loss condition in the first Japanese child studied.

This study demonstrates that pH-responsive nanogels designed with comb-like anionic polymers significantly improved oral delivery of the chemotherapy drug camptothecin, enhancing drug stability in acidic conditions and release in the intestines, with increased cellular uptake and cytotoxic effects against colorectal carcinoma cells.

This study introduced hydrogel microneedles loaded with palladium nanoparticles, which utilize the inherent cytotoxicity of polyethyleneimine to enhance the effectiveness of doxorubicin in treating melanoma, achieving a tumor inhibition rate of up to 98% in a murine model.

This study explains the formulation and evaluation of a natural polyherbal shampoo, which effectively colors hair and provides conditioning without the dermal and systemic toxicity risks of synthetic dyes, offering an effective alternative to conventional products.

This study highlights the potential benefits of herbal soaps and shampoo bars as eco-friendly alternatives to conventional cosmetics, noting their antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant properties as well as sustainability advantages such as reduced plastic use and avoidance of synthetic chemicals.

This study found that magistral topical minoxidil solutions had differences in color, viscosity, and acidity compared to industrial formulations and issues with drug content and dosage indication, despite similar follicular penetration.

This review discusses the genetic disorder, monilethrix, characterized by fragile, brittle hair and its inheritance patterns, and reports no new clinical results.

A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.

This study found that activin affects both stromal cells and keratinocytes in skin morphogenesis and repair, with dose-dependent effects on keratinocytes demonstrated through transgenic mouse models.

This study identified FP-1 as a highly specific extracellular matrix protein in follicular papilla cells, which may play a role in hair growth regulation during specific hair cycle phases.

This study suggests that while PTH rP initially seemed to shorten the hair cycle by transitioning hair follicles from anagen to catagen, more relevant models indicate it ultimately accelerates and stimulates hair growth.

This study found that a novel R343H mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene impairs its transcription activity, contributing to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets and alopecia in the affected family.

This article reviews current knowledge on KATP channel drug binding modes through cryogenic electron microscopy, highlighting distinct binding sites in the sulfonylurea receptor and potential mechanisms of drug action, but reports no new experimental results.

In this study, AgK114 was found to be transiently induced in hamster epidermal keratinocytes following skin damage, suggesting its role in the recovery process after injury.

This study used in silico analysis to identify 4-[2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethylcarbamoyl]benzenesulfonyl as a potential inhibitor of the EGFR mutant associated with NSCLC, highlighting the need for further in vitro and in vivo validation.

This study found that increasing the pH from 2.0 to 6.0 enhanced the binding of cationic solutes to hair keratin, driven primarily by hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions.

This review suggests that standardized herbal shampoos may offer a safe and sustainable alternative to synthetic products due to their natural saponins and multifunctional benefits, though challenges in consistency and shelf-life persist.

In this study, researchers analyzed a herbal shampoo containing Momordica charantia extract and Hibiscus Rosa-Sinensis, noting it could support collagen development and hair growth. The shampoo, tailored to various hair and scalp conditions, was confirmed free of certain harmful heavy metals.

This study found that stress increases the number of peptidergic nerve fibers and mast cell activity in mouse skin, suggesting a significant neuro-immune interaction under stress.

In this study, the authors reported that AtRXR3, a phosphorus-inducible DUF506 protein, modulates root hair growth under phosphorus stress by interacting with calmodulin and influencing calcium oscillations.
