A new mutation in the TRPS1 gene caused Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome in a 17-year-old, highlighting the need for genetic testing.

This study identified a 69 bp deletion in the KRT75 gene as the cause of the frizzle feather trait in chickens, affecting feather curling.

In this study, the rate of hyperkalemia in women taking spironolactone for acne and related issues was low, but frequent monitoring of potassium trends during treatment may be advisable.

This study measured hyperkalemia rates in women using spironolactone for acne, hair loss, and hirsutism to evaluate the necessity of laboratory monitoring, examining variations among different age, racial, and ethnic groups.

This study found that the absence of Hes1 in hair follicles delays secondary hair germ activation and shortens the anagen phase, impacting HFSC self-renewal and long-term hair regeneration.

This article discusses the underutilization of spironolactone in dermatology for conditions like acne, highlighting its potential benefits and good safety profile, but reports no new clinical findings.

The researchers reported that yak hair fibers undergo macromolecular conformational changes and partial slippage of macromolecules during stretching, confirming this as the main stretching mechanism when the stretching ratio is large.

This study found that ethanol and methanol extracts of Spirulina platensis did not exhibit cytotoxic activity on WiDr colon cancer cells.

This study reports the first instance of skin autotomy in mammals, specifically in African spiny mice, and suggests they may possess a greater regenerative capacity than previously understood, possibly offering insights for regenerative medicine.

This case report identifies a novel LIPH gene mutation linked to autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis in a Japanese boy, expanding the spectrum of known mutations associated with this condition.

This research suggests that defects in keratinocyte differentiation due to putrescine accumulation in SSAT transgenic mice lead to skin changes and hair loss, and reducing putrescine can promote hair regrowth.

In a cell-free test setting, this study found that a novel saw palmetto extract effectively inhibited the 5α-reductase type II enzyme, showing promising bioactivity comparable to finasteride for promoting prostate health.

This study identified a mutation in the keratin 71 gene that causes curly hair in certain rats, advancing our understanding of hair formation.

This case study reported that in a 67-year-old woman with Netherton syndrome, treatment with dupilumab improved skin inflammation and pruritus and was associated with significant improvements in hair growth and structure, including the resolution of "bamboo" hair.

MCSP may help identify and regulate skin stem cells, affecting hair growth and regeneration.

This experimental study suggests that finasteride may reduce Lymphocyte Specific Protein 1 gene expression through methylation in human Leydig cells, potentially offering a pathway for treating Neutrophil Actin Dysfunction.

This study found that Sp6 overproduction in ameloblast-lineage cells increased cell proliferation and ameloblastin expression, suggesting that Sp6 promotes amelogenesis by inhibiting follistatin gene expression.

This study reported that a new two-point bending stiffness method effectively correlated with sensory assessments for hair styling gels but not for hair styling sprays, likely due to differences in polymer/hair composites.

Slug (Snai2) helps regulate hair growth timing in mice.

This study found that the LEF-1 binding site acts as an enhancer element for the wool keratin intermediate filament gene promoter in hair follicle cortex, with specificity regulated by additional factors.
