This study found that Hoxc13-/- rabbits exhibit complete hair loss on the head and dorsum, providing a potential model for understanding human ECTD-9 and related dermatological conditions.

In this case report, researchers describe a 22-year-old male with a unique presentation of Senior-Løken Syndrome due to a NPHP4 mutation, exhibiting atypical symptoms like cryptorchidism, alopecia, and potential syndromic overlap with Rothmund-Thomson Syndrome, suggesting complex genetic interactions and expanding the phenotypic spectrum of ciliopathies.

Perinevoid alopecia can be effectively treated with non-invasive corticosteroids.

More research is needed on CCCA in children, especially Black and Asian adolescents.

This study observed unique ultrastructural changes in a 4-year-old girl with pili trianguli et canaliculi that may affect hair shaft surface characteristics due to inner root sheath alterations.

Congenital triangular alopecia can occur outside the typical fronto-temporal region.

This case report adds to the understanding of neurofibromatosis type 1 by documenting an Egyptian child with the condition alongside multiple unusual congenital anomalies, highlighting the importance of considering NF1 when these features are present.

This study found that 40.42% of undergraduate medical students aged under 25 had early canities, with grade I being the most common.

This letter reports a woman with nevoid basal carcinoma syndrome and pronounced androgenic alopecia associated with a novel PTCH gene mutation p.Leu1159fsx32, suggesting a genetic link in this case study.

This study found that parents identified with cryptic NCCAH through genetic testing are mostly asymptomatic but may experience temporary female infertility and require glucocorticoid stress coverage in specific circumstances.

This study found no significant difference in CUX1 core promoter methylation levels between different lambskin patterns in Hu sheep, suggesting other mechanisms influence CUX1 expression related to hair follicle development.

In this case report, researchers described a female child with total alopecia due to a mutation in the SNRPE gene, emphasizing the need for updated genetic testing as knowledge advances to avoid diagnostic delays in hereditary nonsyndromic hypotrichosis.

This review discusses the chemical stability of protein envelopes found in the epidermis and other stratified squamous epithelia, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that overexpression of β-catenin in bipotent Schwann-cell precursors promotes melanocyte development in limb areas by inducing MITF and repressing FoxD3, especially during a specific developmental timeframe.

This report describes a neurometabolic disorder linked to gain-of-function variants in the ODC1 gene, characterized by developmental delay, ectodermal abnormalities, and notable facial and neuroimaging features.

In this case series, cats infested with Lynxacarus radovskyi developed self-induced alopecia similar to flea allergic dermatitis, primarily affecting the perianal area.

In this study, researchers found that skin pigmentation alterations in a mouse model of Carney complex may be caused by specific dermal fibroblasts promoting melanogenic signaling.

In this study, Cyperus rotundus essential oil was found to have significantly better depigmenting effects than hydroquinone for treating axillary hyperpigmentation, with additional benefits in reducing inflammation and hair growth, making it a cost-effective and safe treatment option.

This study emphasizes the genetic component of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, highlighting an atypical case involving an adolescent male within an African-American family.

Congenital triangular alopecia is a harmless, non-spreading hair loss condition often seen in young children.

This article reviews monilethrix, a rare genetic hair disorder causing brittle hair and alopecia, and emphasizes the need for clinical diagnosis and characteristic tricoscopic findings.

This article describes the structure and components of hair cuticle cells and their intercellular junctions but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that in mice with deregulated β-catenin and PTEN signaling, increased follicular hyperplasia and sebaceous gland changes occur, but typical papillomas do not develop, potentially due to p21 response and reduced stem cell markers.

This study reports a case of Cushing disease caused by a rare giant pituitary macroadenoma in a 41-year-old woman, requiring additional treatment after unsuccessful surgery.

This study observed that drug-naïve first-episode psychosis patients had higher hair cortisol concentrations than healthy controls, and these concentrations correlated with the severity of psychopathology.

In this case report, an 18-year-old male's cheek lump initially diagnosed as a sebaceous cyst was found to be a pilomatrixoma after surgical excision and histopathological examination.

This report is the first to associate Cronkhite-Canada syndrome with multiple myeloma, describing regenerative pseudopolyps in a 58-year-old woman rather than true adenomatous polyps.

In this case report, researchers described an exceptionally rare occurrence of a 19-year-old female having three concurrent pilonidal sinuses at intermammary, umbilical, and sacrococcygeal locations, with surgical and conservative treatment leading to favorable healing outcomes.

This study observed unexpected heterogeneity among pigment cells in human scalp hair follicles, identifying immature melanocyte populations outside traditional pigment production zones, raising questions about their potential roles beyond melanin synthesis.

This study found that mu-crystallin gene expression in mouse skin is highest during the anagen phase of hair development, suggesting its possible role in hair follicle growth.
