This study found that a short-term treatment with all-trans retinoic acid may effectively stabilize platelet counts in idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura patients experiencing fluctuations during thrombopoietin receptor agonist therapy.

This study found that Rex rabbits had significantly shorter fibre length and thinner fur compared to New Zealand White rabbits, and identified a gene-metabolite network that may influence fur quality and development.

In this study, hair shafts from trichothiodystrophy patients with ERCC2 mutations revealed abnormal cuticle structures and protein imbalances compared to normal hair shafts.

In this study, Ritlecitinib was reported as a newly approved treatment for alopecia areata that can be used in patients aged 12 and older; after 24 weeks, it resulted in 80% or more scalp hair coverage in treated patients compared to a placebo.

This report presents the Taiwanese Dermatological Association's 2016 consensus on defining and managing skin toxicities from EGFR-TKI treatments, providing comprehensive guidelines for clinicians in Taiwan.

This article discusses the discontinuation of the Bexxar regimen for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, noting that despite its effectiveness, it was under-prescribed due to marketing and development challenges without reporting new clinical results.

This study concluded that using a can containing beans as environmental enrichment for Rex rabbits improved their growth performance, carcass traits, meat quality, and hair follicle development compared to other enrichment materials or no enrichment.

This study suggests that PRX01, PRX44, and PRX73 regulate extensin-mediated cell wall properties during root hair cell growth, influencing growth patterns, peroxidase activity, and cell wall thickness.

In this study using C3H/HeJ mice, a single subcutaneous injection of the fusion protein PTH-CBD increased anagen hair follicle counts and promoted hair regrowth comparably to daily oral ruxolitinib, potentially by enhancing beta-catenin production and stimulating anagen transition.

In this study, a single subcutaneous dose of PTH-CBD showed similar hair regrowth to daily oral ruxolitinib in mice with alopecia, possibly through increased beta-catenin and anagen transition stimulation.

This study found that ion-paired solutions significantly improved the skin penetration of risedronate in hairless mice compared to risedronate alone.

This review discusses the use of methotrexate for pediatric dermatoses and reports increased use in certain conditions like psoriasis, but mainly isolated case reports for others.

This study found that azathioprine may improve relapses and disability in patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder but is associated with higher adverse events compared to mycophenolate mofetil.

This study reports a case of a patient with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders treated with eculizumab who developed fatal sepsis after insulin resistance emerged.

In this study, Dguok deficiency in mice led to premature hair greying due to a loss of melanocyte stem cells and mature melanocytes, with increased oxidative stress and cell death; treatment with an antioxidant mitigated these effects, suggesting DGUOK's importance in hair pigmentation maintenance.

In this study on mice, intensive stress through methods like resiniferatoxin injections and physical restraint was found to inhibit hair follicle growth, with the mechanism involving the sympathetic nervous system and the cAMP signaling pathway in hair follicle stem cells.

This study observed that MIRV improved gastrointestinal symptoms and other quality of life measures in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer compared to chemotherapy.

This study found that a single dose of TRP significantly reduced the number of UV-B-induced actinic keratosis lesions in a mouse model and was associated with improved skin histology and minimal side effects.

This review discusses the functions and potential therapeutic targeting of TRP ion channels in the skin, noting their involvement in both physiological processes and various pathological conditions, but reports no new experimental results.

Stopping methotrexate might reverse lymphoma-like conditions in some patients.

In this study, researchers found that the histone demethylase UTX is crucial for regulating skin differentiation through retinoic acid signaling, mainly impacting females, as males compensate with a Y-linked paralog.

This study presented at the ASCO Annual Meeting reported that the epidermal growth factor receptor antibody ABX-EGF showed preliminary efficacy in renal cell cancer patients, with tolerable side effects, while bortezomib demonstrated clinical benefit in a significant proportion of multiple myeloma patients.

This study found that both a nutritional supplement and a topical hair lotion reduced hair loss and increased the anagen to telogen hair ratio in individuals with androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that certain gene polymorphisms, specifically MTHFR 677CC and GGH 401TT and CT genotypes, were associated with fewer adverse effects from methotrexate in rheumatoid arthritis patients.

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.

In this prospective study, ritlecitinib effectively reduced hair loss in patients with severe alopecia areata, with 43.3% of participants achieving a 20 or lower SALT score by week 24, and showed a good midterm safety profile.

This article reviews the genetic and phenotypic characteristics of Trichothiodystrophy and discusses the associated DNA repair defects, but does not report new clinical findings.

In this study, docetaxel combined with prednisone significantly extended survival by about 2.5 months in men with hormone-resistant metastatic prostate cancer compared to mitoxantrone plus prednisone, despite the potential for severe adverse effects.
