This case report describes the first recorded instance of congenital triangular alopecia in the mid-frontal scalp region, challenging the assumption that it is restricted to the frontotemporal area.

This paper discusses tinea capitis in adults, emphasizing that it particularly affects postmenopausal African American or Black women, and notes challenges in treatment due to antifungal resistance.

This article provides guidelines and indices for a three-point cantilever bending test to measure mechanical properties of hair treated with both conventional and naturally-derived styling polymers, reporting no new experimental results.

This study developed a digital tool for quantitatively assessing hair in androgenetic alopecia, achieving an average accuracy of 79.45% for counting hairs and 68.19% for measuring hair size compared to human evaluation.

This report describes an infant who was diagnosed with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome, a rare genetic disorder characterized by diverse skin changes, short stature, and other developmental anomalies.

This report documents the first case of congenital hypotrichosis in a cervid, observed in a 4-month-old male white-tailed deer fawn in South Dakota.

In this study, mutations in the CDH3 gene were identified as the cause of hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy, and the researchers observed substantial phenotypic variability among affected individuals.

An 8-year-old girl with vitiligo developed extra hair growth on her knee after using tacrolimus ointment.

This study reports that a 15-year-old with trichotillomania showed improvement with aripiprazole treatment, though no consensus on treatment exists in the literature.

This review outlines current treatment strategies for trichotillomania, noting cognitive-behavioral therapy's success, while highlighting the promise and limitations of various pharmacological options.

In this study, tempeh oil rich in PUFAs, particularly from black soybean, significantly down-regulated MMP-9 gene expression in UVB-irradiated mice skin, indicating potential for use in preventing skin photoaging.

This study identified two potent 5α-reductase inhibitors from Tectona grandis leaves, and suggests that ethanol is a preferable solvent for extracting these compounds, which are potential ingredients for hair loss treatments.

This study found that mutations in the TMPRSS6 gene affect the ability of matriptase-2 to inhibit hepcidin, which may impact the molecular pathogenesis of iron-refractory iron-deficiency anemia.

In this study, researchers identified elongated corkscrew hairs as a new trichoscopic pattern in immunosuppressed adults with chronic endothrix tinea capitis, which may help in earlier diagnosis and targeted mycological investigation.

In this study, researchers identified six unique genetic variants of a sheep gene, KRTAP19-3, with specific variants linked to changes in wool fibre traits, such as increased fibre diameter variability, suggesting these genetic differences affect wool characteristics in Chinese Tan sheep.

This study reports the case of an elderly patient with a keratosis pilaris-like skin eruption after beginning treatment with imatinib for chronic myeloid leukemia, discussing similar skin reactions to BCR-ABL inhibitors and exploring potential mechanisms behind these adverse cutaneous reactions.

This study demonstrated that the biomimetic peptide PTP20 may help preserve hair pigmentation and reduce greying by enhancing melanocyte function and increasing melanin production in human hair follicles.

This study found that HIF1 and mTORC1 signalling were active in both basal cell carcinoma and trichoepithelioma, but the pathways do not reliably differentiate between the two.

In this study, the Tibot AI application showed high diagnostic accuracy for adnexal and pigmentary disorders and cutaneous tumors in dermatology, but was less effective for immunological disorders and infestations, suggesting the need for further dataset refinement.

This review outlines advances in topical PROTACs for localized protein degradation, focusing on AH-001 and GT20029 for skin conditions, but presents no new clinical trial results.

In this study, dermatophytosis was prevalent among 52% of dogs and 70% of cats with skin lesions, with younger animals facing higher infection risks; combined itraconazole, clotrimazole, supportive care, and vaccination led to the fastest recovery.

CTP-543 effectively promotes hair regrowth in adults with moderate to severe alopecia areata.

This article reviews temporal triangular alopecia, emphasizing the utility of dermoscopy for diagnosis, and reports no new clinical treatment findings.

This study reports that melatonin influenced HaCaT cell proliferation, with high concentrations reducing DNA synthesis and low concentrations enhancing it after 24 hours.

Human hair follicles have their own thyroid hormone system.

This proof-of-concept study suggests that the new topical treatment regimen TH07 may offer effective hair growth results in men with androgenic alopecia, using a combination of finasteride, latanoprost, and minoxidil, supported by animal models and clinical studies.

This case report describes how real-time PCR rapidly identified Trichophyton mentagrophytes in a dog's dermatophytosis when traditional mycological methods were slower.

This report describes the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic anserine folliculosis in children, highlighting its distinct skin features and suggesting tretinoin cream as an effective remedy.

In this study, a mixture of tocopherol acetate, L-menthol, and stevioside was more effective in promoting hair growth in mice compared to tocopherol acetate or L-menthol alone.

In this study, researchers found two non-synonymous SNPs in the TERT gene associated with mean wool staple strength in sheep, suggesting TERT as a potential candidate gene for improving wool traits.
