This study found that knocking out the Hars2 gene in mouse cochlear hair cells led to mitochondrial dysfunction and ROS stress, resulting in progressive hearing loss and differential effects on inner and outer hair cells.

This article is a statement from Robert Niedbalski, president of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery for 2018, and contains no new research findings.

HPV infection is linked to better survival in advanced anal cancer, higher radiation doses improve survival, especially in HPV-negative patients, and prostaglandin E₂ pretreatment can protect mouse hair follicles from radiation damage.

This study found that human scalp hair follicles produce neurohormones and responded to GHRH stimulation by prolonging hair growth, suggesting a functional peripheral HPS neuroendocrine signaling axis in the skin.

This study introduced and evaluated Ahmad's NPRT system for documenting hair loss, finding it helpful in assessing the specific state of male pattern baldness in 500 patients.

This case report highlights the diagnosis of Parry Romberg syndrome in a 52-year-old man within a primary care setting, emphasizing the importance of awareness and team discussion among family physicians for rare conditions.

A new mutation in the HR gene causes hair loss in a specific family.

This study identified enzymes responsible for regulating androgen action in the human prostate, suggesting that inhibiting AKR1C2 or RL-HSD may have therapeutic potential in androgen insufficiency or benign prostatic hyperplasia, respectively.

In this case report, researchers detailed a 22-year-old Turkish woman diagnosed with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis (ARWH/H), linked to a mutation in the LIPH gene, resulting in sparse, poorly growing, curly hair, highlighting the need for genetic consideration in similar hair conditions.

This study concluded that allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR) is more reliable than tetra-primer ARMS-PCR for genotyping the SNP rs1998076 due to better stability and interpretability.

Genetic testing for hairless gene mutations is crucial to correctly diagnose and treat atrichia with papular lesions.

This study found widespread localization of parathyroid hormone-related protein in normal and cancerous canine tissues, suggesting a potential physiological role as a paracrine or autocrine factor.

This study found that overexpression of OsPHR2 in rice leads to increased phosphate accumulation and root architecture changes even under phosphate-sufficient conditions.

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 article contains no research findings; it reports on an online discussion about platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and opinions shared during a conference.

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.

This study of HCPS survivors in Chile found that 61.9% reported incomplete recovery at 3-6 months post-symptom onset, with ECMO users experiencing more motor dysfunction and palpitations, highlighting the need for multidisciplinary care to address persistent symptoms.

This study suggests that while PTH rP initially seemed to shorten the hair cycle by transitioning hair follicles from anagen to catagen, more relevant models indicate it ultimately accelerates and stimulates hair growth.

This study found that repeated treatments with the long-pulsed ruby laser result in a small but statistically significant reduction in unwanted hair, with high patient satisfaction despite modest efficacy.

This study discovered that a specific G to C mutation in the ornithine aminotransferase gene is linked to the retarded hair growth phenotype in mice and may serve as a model for human gyrate atrophy.

This study found that intraovarian PRP treatment in women with low ovarian reserve was associated with significant increases in serum AMH levels in some patients, typically within four weeks.

In this study, researchers found that recombinant human HAPLN1 promoted hair growth in mice and human hair matrix cells by activating specific signaling pathways, suggesting it may offer a potential hair loss treatment with fewer side effects than existing medications.

This review discusses the clinical manifestations and immune response to Rhodococcus equi infection in foals but reports no new clinical results.

This study used a novel HPLC-radiomatic flow scintillation system to measure 5α-reductase activity in dermal papillae from miniaturized hair follicles of the human occipital scalp, revealing significant variability in enzyme activity across samples.

This report highlights that the ISHRS Annual Meeting in Nashville continued to attract a significant number of attendees despite competition from other hair restoration meetings.

The researchers concluded that their new reconstructed human epidermis model from plucked hair follicle-derived keratinocytes offers a safer and simpler alternative to traditional skin-derived models for studying epidermal function.

In this study, acellular dermal matrix hydrogels significantly improved healing in a rat model of radiation-induced skin injury by promoting angiogenesis and modulating inflammation, suggesting potential as a novel treatment for this common radiotherapy complication.

This case report suggests that herpes zoster ophthalmicus with secondary preseptal cellulitis may occur as a rare adverse reaction following platelet-rich plasma injections for androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses the role of RDH12 in vision, its structural and functional aspects, and related disease mechanisms, but reports no new clinical results; it aims to support therapy development for inherited retinal dystrophies.
