In this case report, a young male beagle diagnosed with canine eosinophilic dermatitis, characterized by intraepidermal pustules and itchy skin, showed significant improvement with prednisolone treatment without recurrence, contrasting with common reports of recurrence in similar cases.

This study showed that vitamin D receptor gene-deficient rats exhibit hair loss and skin abnormalities due to differences in gene and protein expression patterns, while ligand-independent VDR action is crucial for normal hair cycle maintenance and skin formation.

The eco-friendly hair oil promotes healthy hair growth and is safe and effective.

This study demonstrated that a ligand-independent action of the vitamin D receptor significantly affects keratinocyte behavior in hair follicles and skin, pointing to its crucial role in maintaining normal hair and skin structures in rats.

This study reported that topical ω‐0‐acylceramide improved skin barrier function in Jack Russell Terriers with TGM1-deficient autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis, normalizing skin pH and reducing transepidermal water loss.

This study identified a missense variant in the EDA gene of a male cat, which likely caused hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, characterized by hair and teeth abnormalities; this represents the first report of such a genetic condition in cats.

In this report, a 58-year-old woman with ocular myasthenia gravis experienced complete resolution of symptoms and hair regrowth after six months of treatment with the JAK inhibitor baricitinib, highlighting a potential new therapeutic approach for this condition.

In this study, a 3-year-old Japanese child with autosomal recessive woolly hair was found to have a distinctive irregular and rough cuticle on the hair shaft, along with a homozygous pathogenic LIPH variant, suggesting a critical role for genetic analysis in understanding rare hair conditions.

The researchers investigated a Maine Coon cat with suspected classical Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and discovered a heterozygous deletion in the COL5A1 gene, underscoring the value of whole-genome sequencing for precise veterinary diagnostics.

In this study, researchers found that polysulfides in human hair keratin contribute to hair strength and antioxidant capacity, with sulfur supplementation enhancing hair strength and cuticle structure amid oxidative stresses such as UV radiation.

This study explored whether inositol and phytic acid, components from rice bran, could be effective and safe alternatives to minoxidil for promoting hair growth, due to concerns about minoxidil's side effects with long-term use in women. Results are not reported.

In this study, researchers found that a high-fat diet in mice induced downregulation of certain Krtap genes in the tongue, which may be linked to structural issues or oral cancer risk, highlighting a potential connection between oral health and systemic diseases like metabolic syndrome.

In this study involving genetically modified rats, researchers observed that specific mutations in the vitamin D receptor affect calcium levels and bone formation, emphasizing the receptor's role in maintaining healthy bone density and its importance in regulating hair cycle and skin health.

This study suggests that hemoglobin α expression in the epidermis is induced by oxidative stress and may function as an antioxidant, contributing to skin barrier function.

This study examined frontotemporal craniotomy in bald male patients, finding that incisions along the superior temporal line, though not concealed in the hairline, resulted in excellent cosmetic outcomes, safety, and patient satisfaction without complaints of visible scars or complications.

In this study, gene therapy using a VDR-expressing adenoviral vector promoted hair growth in Vdr-KO rats, suggesting its potential for treating alopecia associated with type II rickets.

In this study, researchers observed that bacterial community structures on human scalp hair are unique to individuals and show consistent patterns across different sampling sites on the scalp, without significant variation between these sites.

This case report highlights the successful treatment of degenerative mucinotic mural folliculitis in a 1.5-year-old indoor cat using high-dose ciclosporin, resulting in the resolution of alopecia and improved general condition over a 10-month period.

This case report describes a rare instance of thymoma associated with alopecia areata in a 60-year-old woman who had no signs of myasthenia gravis, highlighting the need for thoracic surgeons to consider alopecia in such cases due to its impact on quality of life.

This study observed two distinct groups of alopecia areata lesions based on PD-1 expression in T cells from biopsied skin samples, suggesting potential differences in subtypes or stages of the disease that warrant further investigation.

In this study, gene therapy using a VDR-expressing adenoviral vector significantly improved hair growth and reduced cyst formation in Vdr -KO rats with alopecia linked to type II rickets, whereas control treatments did not show these effects.

This study in Japanese women identified SNP rs2419385 as significantly associated with hair thinning, suggesting potential involvement of nearby genes in its development.

This study reports that a new mouse model with a CARD14 mutation successfully mimics key human PRP symptoms, and anti-IL-17A antibody significantly reduces these symptoms.

This case study describes the diagnosis and treatment of a Japanese girl with non-classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency, highlighting the normalization of testosterone and control of clitoromegaly after hydrocortisone therapy, but continued overgrowth issues.

This study found that hemoglobin α is upregulated in epidermal keratinocytes after UV exposure and may function as an antioxidant, particularly for hair follicle stem cells.

This study found that dysregulation of the DNA damage response in stem cells is a common factor of aging, affecting tissues like the skin, brain, kidneys, and intestine.

This study reports that Huaier promotes hair growth and tissue regeneration in cancer recovery by activating the Hedgehog signaling pathway, potentially preventing recurrence and metastasis independently from SMO function.

This case report presents a 60-year-old woman with virilization and elevated adrenal androgens, where a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy confirmed ovarian steroid cell tumor NOS, and her symptoms resolved post-operatively.

In this study, high expression of S100A4 in glioblastoma was associated with worse patient survival and promoted tumor progression by enhancing pro-tumorigenic vascular functions.
