In this study, a Chinese Han family with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets was found to have a homozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, and the affected individual uniquely responded well to treatment with oral calcium and low-dose calcitriol.

This study found that transient non-lethal levels of endogenous ROS in cultured human hair follicles promoted entry into the growth phase by activating the hair follicle stem cell niche.

This case report describes a hair structure abnormality associated with iron deficiency anemia, which improved after iron supplementation ceased hair loss and corrected the hair shaft abnormality.

This study identified three variants in the HR gene among Mexican patients with alopecia areata, with one novel variant potentially serving as a risk factor for the disease.

This study evaluated various herbal combinations for hair coloring and found that a formulation of Henna and Indigo provided a natural reddish-brown color with better retention compared to marketed herbal hair dyes, without using synthetic agents that can cause allergic reactions.

This study suggests that EREG, released from ORS cells, may promote hair growth by activating specific receptors and modulating ROS generation, offering a potential new treatment for hair loss.

This report presents a rare case of short anagen syndrome in a 38-year-old African American woman, expanding the documented demographic beyond previously reported Caucasian individuals with fine blond hair.

This article presents a case of a seventeen-year-old female with dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis and emphasizes the importance of distinguishing its clinical features from other similar disorders, supported by dermoscopic and histopathological findings.

In this study, RT1640 was found to promote hair pigment system regeneration and expand melanocyte stem cell pools in a mouse model, suggesting potential applications for aging-related hair disorders.

This study identified a new genetic variant in the KRT71 gene responsible for a breed-specific form of hypotrichosis in Hereford cattle, potentially serving as a model for similar human conditions.

In this study, serum levels of vitamin C, vitamin E, and total antioxidant capacity did not differ significantly between individuals with premature greying hair and controls, but a strong association with family history was observed.

This review explores the factors contributing to premature graying of hair, highlighting the role of genetic and environmental influences such as oxidative stress, and discusses potential interventions like diet and herbal remedies, while noting the limitations of common treatments like hair dyes.

This study found a novel R430Q gene mutation in hHb6, which may be linked to the hereditary hair disorder monilethrix in the examined family.

This article reviews the role of melanins in determining human hair color and discusses the specialized regulation of hair melanocytes during growth, with no new findings reported.

In this study, a novel heterozygous transition mutation in the KRT86 gene was identified, which may be pathogenic for monilethrix in a Chinese family.

Recognizing bamboo hair helps diagnose Netherton’s syndrome.

This study found that the RapidHIT™ ID system can successfully obtain DNA profiles from single hair roots, particularly those with high nuclei counts.

In this study, premature hair graying in Indian patients under 25 was associated with low levels of serum ferritin, Vitamin B12, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.

This study identifies a mutation in the hairless gene that may impact thyroid receptor interaction, contributing to alopecia universalis congenita in an Arab Israeli patient.

This abstract provides logistical details about a research study on hair greying in RTX-injected mice but reports no specific findings or results.

This study found that alopecia areata patients with a CCHCR1 gene variant had higher recurrence rates and structural abnormalities in hair compared to those without the variant.

This study demonstrates that Rac1 activity is essential for normal hair follicle formation but influences hair structure and pigmentation, in terminal differentiation, through alterations in hair shaft, cuticle, and pigmentation organization.

This study in hairless rats suggests that the deletion of specific hair keratin genes contributes to hypotrichosis and highlights the strain's potential as a model for hair follicle research.

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.

In this study, eight patients with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets who share a specific VDR mutation showed improved clinical symptoms except alopecia after up to 11 years of treatment.

This study found that domestic temporary hair dyes may pose a health risk due to their cytotoxic effects on human red blood cells and NIH/3T3 cell lines.

This study found that a recessive mutation in the RHD4 gene of Arabidopsis thaliana leads to slower and more variable tip growth in seedling root hairs, resulting in shorter and wider hairs than in wild-type plants.

This study identified genetic variants in the Trichohyalin gene that account for approximately 6% of the variance in hair morphology among Australians of European descent.
