This article reviews the genetic and protein interactions involved in hair growth, highlighting regulatory sequences, expression patterns, and potential genetic modifications, but presents no new experimental findings.

This study found that a targeted iron supplementation program prevented anemia and improved blood return rates among premenopausal female blood donors with iron deficiency.

This review discusses the state-of-the-art knowledge on pseudoxanthoma elasticum, summarizing recent advancements in genetics, pathomechanisms, and potential treatments but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, zinc supplementation rapidly improved conditions such as anorexia, depression, and foot soreness in sheep and goats diagnosed with zinc deficiency, along with healing skin lesions and resumption of hair and wool growth.

In this study, hair loss after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy was associated with zinc and iron levels, even within normal ranges, and a combined variable of zinc and iron predicted susceptibility to hair loss.

This case report describes a 5-month-old Japanese infant with biotin deficiency, where daily oral biotin supplementation led to significant improvements in skin conditions and hair growth.

This study proposes reclassifying PCOS into two distinct phenotypes based on androgen levels and suggests androgen supplementation may overcome IVF resistance in one group with advancing age.

This study found that serum ferritin levels were lower in premenopausal women with female pattern hair loss compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential role for iron in hair loss.

This study reports that hypomorphic alleles of the Ass1 gene in mice resemble human CTLN1, providing a potential model for preclinical studies and indicating that standard treatments for CTLN1 can rescue phenotypes.

In this study, a sole diet of Leucaena leucocephala caused hypothyroidism and poor weight gain in steers, but mineral supplementation improved some symptoms without normalizing thyroid hormone levels.

This review discusses zinc-responsive dermatosis and lethal acrodermatitis in dogs, noting the importance of zinc supplementation and dietary correction; it presents no new clinical findings.

This review discusses how the HSD3B1(1245C) genotype may impact androgen physiology and the progression of castration-resistant prostate cancer, and does not report new experimental results.

This review examines the debated link between iron deficiency and nonscarring scalp alopecia in women, offering no new clinical results but emphasizing the need for further research and well-designed trials.

This report describes a unique case of hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets (HVDRR) in a dog, caused by a VDR gene mutation resulting in severe hypocalcemia and bone issues, which presented with symptoms similar to those observed in humans.

This study found that an 11-month-old Japanese infant developed biotin deficiency while on a Japanese amino acid formula without biotin, which was resolved with biotin supplementation.

This study found that in male badgers, seasonal molting and hair growth are influenced by cycles of plasma testosterone and thyroxine, with hormones affecting the timing and progression of these processes.

This article reviews the effect of aging on male hormone levels and fertility, highlighting the need for more research on the benefits and risks of androgen supplementation in older men.

This review discusses hormonal and surgical gender-affirming interventions for transfeminine individuals, noting improvements in quality of life and mental health with minimal adverse effects, but reports no new research findings.

This report describes a case of hypozincemia type-II in an exclusively breast-fed infant, which resolved with zinc therapy and weaning, highlighting genetic factors in zinc transporter gene SLC30A2.

In this study, a dietary protein deficiency was identified as the cause of alopecia and weight loss in captive western lowland gorillas, and protein supplementation improved their condition.

This study observed that telogen effluvium was the most common form of acquired alopecia among females in a semiurban Indian population, with stress and chemical exposure as major exacerbating factors.

This review discusses environmental factors like UV radiation and smoking that affect hair health and highlights the potential role of nutrition, but it reports no new results.

This article discusses the interplay of skin, immunity, and nutrition, highlighting dietary and probiotic options for managing skin conditions, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that alterations in copper metabolism may play a key role in the development of androgenetic alopecia in women, presenting potential targets for treatment strategies.

This study concluded that hair zinc levels in weaned male rats do not reliably indicate their overall zinc status, as varying dietary zinc levels produced inconsistent hair zinc concentrations.

This study found that patients with premature hair graying had lower serum levels of iron, copper, and calcium, which correlated with the severity of graying.

This case report presents the first genetically confirmed case of acrodermatitis enteropathica in Korea, identifying compound heterozygous mutations in the SLC39A4 gene in an 8-month-old boy.

The authors concluded that administering biotin may help prevent alopecia caused by reduced biotinidase activity during valproic acid therapy in rats.

This study observed that a low-protein, arginine-supplemented diet improved the abnormal hair appearance in untreated patients with argininosuccinic aciduria.

Hair can indicate early signs of metabolic disorders, with issues like protein deficiency stopping hair growth.
