In this case report, an ointment containing 1.24R-dihydroxyvitamin D3 was effective for treating follicular keratosis of the chin but did not provide lasting benefits after treatment ended.

This study observed that some patients with homozygous c.736T>A mutation in LIPH may have mild hypotrichosis with long hairs in adulthood.

This review investigated the phytochemical variations in different medicinal parts of the plant *Alpinia zerumbet*, finding distinct chemical compositions between leaves, rhizomes, fruits, seeds, and flowers, which supports the traditional use of these parts for various medicinal purposes.

In this study, silver oxide-based nanoparticles were used to ionize analytes and detect specific target molecules through adduct formation with silver isotopes, facilitating signal correlation with these molecules.

This study found that strontium cannot fully substitute for calcium in oat seedling root and root hair growth, though it may help mitigate toxic effects from other ions.

This study found that lower urinary tract symptoms were linked to reduced functional ability in older adults, with distinct associations for nocturia in men and frequency, urgency, and overactive bladder in women.

In this study, researchers found that non-invasive analysis of skin surface lipid RNAs revealed alterations in gene expression patterns associated with atopic dermatitis, suggesting its potential for understanding skin disease pathophysiology.

This study identified NM_026333 as a potential anti-aging gene that, when induced, may alleviate proton-induced aging symptoms in CF6-overexpressing and high salt-fed mice.

This study found that 1% topical minoxidil significantly increased hair count and improved hair growth perception among Japanese women with androgenetic alopecia compared to placebo.

This review summarizes research finding over 150 new molecules with various biological activities from traditional herbal medicines studied in China, Mongolia, Uzbekistan, and Bangladesh.

This study suggests that nestin is an important marker for identifying HMB-45-negative cells in nodular melanomas, particularly in the dermal parts.

This study found that women, younger individuals, and those with a low body mass index were more likely to develop long COVID symptoms, and even mild COVID-19 cases often experienced long-term residual symptoms.

This study observed that medical castration for prostate cancer prolongs the QT/QTc intervals, potentially leading to serious arrhythmias like torsade de pointes and ventricular fibrillation, even in patients without prior QT prolongation risk.

This study successfully established Tsc2-deficient embryonic stem cells from Eker rats and found these cells have distinct gene expression compared to non-mutant cells, which could help identify new therapeutic targets for TSC-related pathogenesis.

Applying minoxidil can help improve hair growth in people with hair loss caused by LIPH gene mutations.

This study found that the stability of the coiled-coil structure in human hair keratin is maintained by ion-pairing and hydrophobic interactions, which are disrupted as pH approaches 7.0.

This review emphasized the significance of biliary fibrosis in hepatobiliary disorders, exploring its clinical manifestations, epidemiology, and cellular factors, and provided insights into current clinical trials and strategies for managing fibrosis-related cholangiopathies.

This study suggests that STAT3 signaling in keratinocytes is crucial for maintaining skin homeostasis by regulating hair follicle-specific keratin genes, potentially impacting dermatitis development through microbe-triggered inflammatory responses.

This report details a rare case of favus in Japan, identifying Trichophyton schoenleinii in a 63-year-old woman through DNA sequencing, who was successfully treated with oral terbinafine and topical luliconazole.

In this study, a combination therapy involving oral finasteride, oral and topical minoxidil, and injectable treatments led to significant improvements in hair growth for Asian men with androgenetic alopecia, with high patient satisfaction and minimal complications over a period of 6 to 12 months.

Minoxidil solution applied twice daily improved hair growth in patients with Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis due to LIPH gene issues, with mild side effects.
