This review discusses the emerging "endocrine phenotype" of COVID-19, highlighting the implications for managing diabetes, obesity, vitamin D deficiency, and other endocrine conditions in affected patients.

This review discusses the role of the hedgehog signaling pathway in hematological cancers and its potential as a therapeutic target; it reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the various skin manifestations associated with end-stage renal disease and their potential causes but reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize pruritus as a significant condition.

This review outlines the development, applications, and challenges of microneedle-based drug delivery from 2000-2019, particularly highlighting fabrication techniques, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses treatments for chemotherapy-induced alopecia, highlighting scalp cooling for hair loss prevention and 2% topical minoxidil for regrowth acceleration as effective options, but reports a need for more rigorous trials to validate promising new therapies.

This review found that patients with alopecia areata may have lower levels of vitamin D, zinc, and folate, but conflicting evidence precludes definitive clinical recommendations for micronutrient supplementation.

This review discusses photothermal agent hybrids in hydrogels for antibacterial action, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis in tissue engineering, but reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses the complex interaction between androgens and hair follicle biology, highlighting the need for a better understanding to improve hirsutism treatments, but reports no new results.

This paper reviews guidelines discussed at a meeting about research and practice themes, but reports no new research findings.

This review discusses hormonal influences on hair growth and suggests that understanding hormone-gene interactions may improve treatment of hirsutism and alopecia, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case study reported that absence of alopecia does not reliably predict responsiveness to vitamin D treatment in Vitamin D-dependent rickets type II, as demonstrated by a patient with normal hair growth who showed extreme resistance.

This review discusses advancements in the use of microneedle arrays and nanoparticles for transdermal delivery of therapeutics, noting challenges in overcoming the skin barrier and summarizing recent clinical trial achievements in areas like cancer therapy and gene therapy.

This review explores the potential (neuro-)endocrine influences on hair follicle epithelial stem cell biology and emphasizes the need for more systematic research, but it provides no new empirical results.

This report describes an 11-year-old boy with Netherton syndrome who developed Cushing syndrome after using low-potency hydrocortisone ointment extensively, highlighting caution with long-term topical treatments in such conditions.

This article discusses the need for rational strategies in developing hair loss drugs targeting specific events in hair follicle cycling, reporting no clinical findings but emphasizing the importance of understanding molecular controls.

This study found that reducing BMP signaling in mouse nipple epithelia, achieved through Noggin overexpression, can convert them into hairy skin with pilosebaceous units.

This review discusses the pharmacologic properties, mechanisms, dosing options, and adverse effects of systemic glucocorticosteroids in dermatology, but reports no new findings.

This report discusses the various causes and clinical assessment of madarosis, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and diagnosing associated vision or life-threatening conditions, without presenting new findings.

This review suggests that decreased serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels may play a role in different types of non-scarring alopecia, but further studies are needed to explore vitamin D supplementation as a therapeutic option.

This study in Italy found that APS-1, a rare disorder, is associated with various AIRE gene mutations and most individuals have autoantibodies such as IFNωAbs, which are markers of the condition.

This review discusses the physiology of hair follicles, their disorders, and the principles behind developing treatments, reporting no new results.

This review discusses the roles of tissue-specific and mesenchymal stromal cells in tissue repair and reparative disorders, highlighting potential therapeutic targets for muscle, heart, and lung tissues.

This review discusses the potential roles of calcium in the regulation of pluripotent and tissue-specific stem cells but reports no new experimental results, highlighting areas for future research.

This study created a humanized mouse model of hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets that lacks alopecia, indicating the mutant receptor's potential to explore the syndrome's characteristics beyond vitamin D binding.

This study observed that 71% of chronic myeloid leukemia patients treated with second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors experienced adverse cutaneous reactions, which were generally less severe than those caused by imatinib.

This review discusses the potential of microneedle arrays for drug delivery and in the cosmetic market, but reports no new clinical results; factors for commercial therapeutic use are explored.

This review discusses the broader roles of angiogenic factors, like VEGFs and FGFs, beyond angiogenesis, highlighting their involvement in various biological and pathological processes.

In this study, mutations in the vitamin D receptor were identified in Brazilian children with rickets and alopecia, leading to impaired receptor activation and reduced 24-hydroxylase expression.

This review discusses the impact of COVID-19 on the endocrine system and reports no clinical results; the authors emphasize the need to investigate endocrine damage during and after COVID-19 infection.

This study found that a novel missense mutation in the vitamin D receptor caused hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets with alopecia by disrupting protein function, highlighting the importance of DNA binding in hair development.
