This article reviews the clinical features of dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis, highlighting its characteristic triad of symptoms, but provides no new research results.

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.

This study reports a rare cluster of four patients with ectodermal dysplasia, highlighting its typical dental and dermatological manifestations and the necessity of multidisciplinary management.

This study identified a compound heterozygous mutation in the 3 beta-HSD gene that confirmed inherited 3 beta-HSD deficiency in a Pakistani child with salt-wasting congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This study reviews historical accounts suggesting several British monarchs suffered from various skin diseases, including leprosy, psoriasis, stasis dermatitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and porphyria.

This case study reports a rare instance of RC11 associated with precocious puberty, severe hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes, suggesting a possible link to 11q-syndrome.

This study found that while prolactin and DHEA-S levels were higher in women with hirsutism compared to controls, there was no significant correlation between second to fourth digit ratio and hormonal profiles.

This study found that in wild-type Arabidopsis plants, root hair growth is suppressed with increased nutrient availability, with RHD6 subfamily genes down-regulated and GTL1 and DF1 genes influencing root hair morphology under these conditions.

In this study, two unique mutations in the RBPJ gene were identified and linked to Adams-Oliver syndrome, confirming impaired DNA binding of mutated RBPJ as a factor in this rare genetic disorder.

In this study, researchers observed that twins with a novel de novo nonsense variant in HRAS exhibited distinctive features, including neuropsychiatric symptoms, potentially indicating a wider clinical spectrum for conditions known as RASopathies.

This review summarizes recent research and patents on 17β-HSD3, 17β-HSD5, and 3α-HSD3 inhibitors, suggesting their potential in treating androgen-dependent diseases, but reports no new clinical results.

The researchers identified a specific mutation in the desmoglein 4 gene linked to localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis, which presents with variable hair loss severity in affected individuals from a large Pakistani family.

This study found that elevated tissue RBP4 levels correlate with disease severity in alopecia areata and decrease after effective baricitinib treatment, while the rs3758539 polymorphism is linked to disease susceptibility but not to treatment response.

This study found that selectively targeting HDAC4 and HDAC7 in mice can reduce Th17 cell-mediated intestinal inflammation, suggesting a potential treatment approach for Th17-related inflammatory diseases like ulcerative colitis.

Er:YAG laser therapy effectively treats Hailey-Hailey disease, leading to long-term remission and improved quality of life.

This case study reports that a 3 ½ year-old male with vitamin D-dependent type II rickets showed partial improvement in alopecia and rickets when treated with high doses of 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3.

This study found that RXRα/RARγ heterodimers are necessary for retinoic acid-induced keratinocyte proliferation in the skin, while normal epidermal maintenance does not require RAR-mediated signaling.

This study concluded that the hairless protein interacts with the vitamin D receptor to repress transcription crucial for hair cycling, employing multiple protein interfaces and modulating chromatin structure.

In this study, researchers observed that knocking down the LPA 4 receptor in zebrafish embryos led to vascular and lymph vessel development abnormalities, including edema and decreased heartbeats.

This study identified the Hairless (Hr) gene-encoded protein as a corepressor that plays a crucial role in maintaining skin and hair by regulating epithelial stem cell differentiation and gene expression via chromatin remodeling, which may impact both development and disease.

This study identifies iRhom2 as a crucial regulator of hair follicle differentiation, showing that the iRhom2Uncv mutation leads to dysplasia and reduced TACE maturation, resulting in a hairless phenotype in mice.

This case study describes a 4-year-old girl's diagnosis of erythrokeratodermia variabilis despite various ineffective treatments, highlighting a rare skin condition with persistent symptoms.

This article presents a family case study of dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis linked to a specific KRT14 gene variant, detailing symptoms and stressing the importance of molecular diagnosis for management.

This study examined the safety profile of ritlecitinib, a drug for alopecia areata, and found that it does not cause significant QTc prolongation or severe lymphopenia, with no unique safety risks expected in adolescents.

In this study, researchers identified two distinct homozygous mutations in the KRT85 gene among consanguineous Pakistani families with pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia, highlighting variations in severity and potential impacts on the K85 protein function.

This study found that engineered high-affinity soluble CD200R agonists, including ARQ-234, showed superior efficacy in reducing immune responses in various preclinical models of inflammatory conditions, suggesting potential as a therapeutic for atopic dermatitis and other related diseases.

This study found that certain lncRNA gene polymorphisms in HOTAIR and MALAT1 are associated with increased susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus, potentially informing clinical applications.

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.

Mutations in the hHb6 gene cause the hair disorder monilethrix.

This study demonstrated that mice lacking skin-specific RXRalpha expression developed hair follicle degeneration and alopecia, indicating the importance of RXRalpha/VDR heterodimers in maintaining hair follicle homeostasis.
