This report describes an infant who was diagnosed with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome, a rare genetic disorder characterized by diverse skin changes, short stature, and other developmental anomalies.

This review discusses the strong correlation between reflectance confocal microscopy images and horizontal histopathology in diagnosing skin tumors, highlighting the reliability of this non-invasive technique; no new clinical results are reported.

This review discusses the roles of the hairless (HR) protein as a corepressor, particularly its impact on RORα-mediated transcriptional repression, and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that activation of RORA significantly promotes the level of autophagy in rat hair follicle stem cells, suggesting a potential target for research on hair follicle development and treatments for conditions like alopecia.

In this case report, a newborn with Conradi-Hünermann-Happle syndrome was diagnosed through early skin biopsy, which revealed unique histopathological features, including dystrophic calcifications, confirming a pathogenic variant in the EBP gene.

In this study, specific genetic polymorphisms in the KRT71 gene were associated with hairless and curly phenotypes in Sphynx and Devon Rex cats.

This study analyzed CADR reports in Singapore, finding nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, and iohexol frequently associated with serious skin reactions like rash and angioedema, with trends varying by demographics.

Reduced AhR signaling in HS tunnels leads to persistent inflammation and microbial imbalance.

This review discusses the differential diagnosis of low-renin hypertension and highlights recent genetic discoveries related to familial forms, but it presents no new clinical results.

This study describes a patient with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets (HVDRR) who, despite having a truncated vitamin D receptor, did not exhibit typical hair or skin abnormalities, suggesting possible compensation via interactions with other proteins.

This case report identifies a mutation in the TRPS1 gene, leading to the diagnosis of trichorhinophalangeal syndrome type I in a young girl and her family, highlighting the importance of detailed clinical and family history for proper diagnosis.

This review suggests that most mutations in the SRD5A2 gene show no clear genotype-phenotype correlation in 5-α-Reductase deficiency, although mutation location affects severity.

In this study, researchers identified the CBL1-CIPK26 Ca 2+ sensor-kinase complexes as key modulators of the NADPH oxidase RBOHC crucial for root hair differentiation in plants.

This study discovered that calcium dependent protein kinase 1 (CPK1) directly activates cyclic nucleotide-gated channels 5, 6, and 9, promoting root hair growth in Arabidopsis by regulating Ca²⁺ signaling.

This case report illustrates how SNP array testing helped identify a DCAF17 mutation linked to Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome in consanguineous Qatari siblings with shared features including alopecia and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

In this study, researchers observed that the success of treating hereditary vitamin D–resistant rickets in children depends on the mutation location in the VDR gene, notably with favorable dental development outcomes for those with the p.R391S mutation, despite persistent alopecia.

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 KSR1 is essential for v-Ha-ras-mediated skin tumor formation in mice but not for MT-driven mammary tumor genesis, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target in Ras/MAPK signaling.

This report highlights that the ISHRS website achieved 1,000,000 active users in 2025, signaling its emergence as a leading global resource for hair restoration information.

In this study, researchers found that hair alterations such as frontal-occipital inversion in males and a high occipital hairline may aid in diagnosing the uncommon condition TRPS.

This study observed sexually dimorphic effects of reduced Rdh10 on energy metabolism and muscle function in mice, with males experiencing decreased endurance and females showing increased endurance on a high-fat diet.

A new test helps find drugs to treat head and neck cancer by targeting c-Rel.

This study found a recurrent nonsense mutation in the HR gene linked to atrichia with papular lesions in two Kashmiri families, suggesting whole exome sequencing as an efficient method for diagnosis and genetic counseling.

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 case report describes a Thai male with TRPS1 who exhibited unique and unreported features such as hypoplastic mandibular condyles, double mental foramina, and distinctive hair abnormalities.

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 identified 11 genes associated with non-syndromic hereditary hypotrichosis in a Chinese cohort and proposed a preliminary framework for phenotype-driven candidate-gene prioritization to aid clinical evaluation.

This case report suggests that Roux-en-Y gastric bypass may improve symptoms of non-classic adrenal hyperplasia related to 11-hydroxylase deficiency by reducing insulin resistance.

In this case study, a girl with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets had a novel mutation in the VDR gene that affected hair cycling without causing total alopecia, suggesting ligand-independent VDR function in hair cycling.

This study found that the mutant hairless rhino bald protein in mice interacts with the vitamin D receptor but cannot repress its transactivation and shows abnormal cellular localization.
