This case series describes three siblings with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, highlighting variations in their clinical presentations.

This study evaluated a hair growth gel with Hibiscus rosa sinensis, Eclipta alba, and Solanum nigrum extracts, demonstrating consistent homogeneity, 5 α-reductase inhibitory activity, and no skin irritation.

This study suggests that the vitamin D receptor and hairless gene may directly regulate each other via a transcriptional mechanism, potentially explaining phenotypic similarities between atrichia and VDRRIIa rickets.

This study found that postnatal treatment with recombinant EDA normalized adult teeth, improved sweating, and restored normal lacrimation in dogs with XLHED, suggesting its potential as a treatment for the condition.

Farudodstat may effectively treat alopecia areata without harming hair follicles.

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.

This study identified a compound heterozygous mutation in a hairless rhesus macaque, which was associated with skin abnormalities similar to those in hairless mice and humans with APL.

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.

Intense pulsed light with radiofrequency showed mixed results in improving quality of life for hidradenitis suppurativa patients, with no clinical improvements.

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.

This description of dystrophy hypotrichosis associated with juvenile macular dystrophy provides an overview of this rare disorder characterized by short hair from birth and progressive loss of central vision but reports no new findings.

This study examined the evolutionary and functional homology of steroid 5α-reductase and DET2 proteins, identifying protists as a common ancestor, and discovered a new subclass DET2-like in plants, potentially involved in polyprenol reduction.

In this study, researchers found that overexpression of the hairless protein in Hr mutant mice disrupts inner root sheath formation by downregulating Dlx3 and associated keratins in hair follicle development.

Pulsed dye laser and hydrogel dressings effectively treat hypertrophic scars.

This study found that the receptor kinase RHS10 negatively regulates root hair growth in Arabidopsis thaliana by modulating growth duration and is associated with cell wall signal mediation, involving RNA catabolism and ROS accumulation.

In this study, mutations in the CDH3 gene were identified as the cause of hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy, and the researchers observed substantial phenotypic variability among affected individuals.

This research suggests that targeting the HIF-1α pathway via PHD inhibitors may enable regeneration similar to amphibians in mammals, potentially fast-tracking regenerative therapies from mice to humans.

This study suggests that women with idiopathic hirsutism have increased 5α-reductase activity, indicated by elevated levels of 3α-diol glucuronide; further research is needed to assess its clinical biomarker potential.

This study found that the RADA-GHK and RADA-KGHK peptide hydrogels improved wound healing and cell growth without cytotoxicity, suggesting potential for use in skin regeneration.

This review found that the DLQI is widely used as a benchmark in the development and validation of dermatology quality-of-life measures.

This study found that a specific mutation in the mouse RXRalpha gene significantly impacts immune responses and causes hair loss and skin cysts.

This audit of ritlecitinib prescribing for severe alopecia areata found that regional practices largely followed national guidelines but highlighted the need for better psychological assessments and more consistent use of SALT scoring to inform treatment continuation decisions after 36 weeks.

A 72-year-old man was diagnosed with a rare skin form of Rosai-Dorfman disease after years of misdiagnosis.

This study identified a missense mutation in the rat Desmoglein 4 gene, causing abnormal hair shaft development in lanceolate hair mutant rats by disrupting a critical calcium binding site.

This study suggests that DcR3 can reprogram macrophages towards a reparative state, enhancing wound healing and hair follicle regeneration, making it a potential target for treating chronic wounds and alopecia.

This study found that red-flowered cultivars of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis displayed the highest antioxidant activity, phenolic, and flavonoid content compared to other colored cultivars.

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.

This article discusses the functions of the enzyme 17beta-HSD10, including its role in steroid metabolism and potential links to Alzheimer's disease, but reports no new experimental findings.

In this study, a novel VDR gene mutation was identified in a child with HVDRR, and the researchers observed that high-dose intravenous calcium therapy led to significant and sustained improvement in rickets symptoms.
