This review discusses inherited forms of vitamin D-dependent rickets and explains their genetic and metabolic causes but reports no new clinical findings.

This study introduced the Vitamin Deficiency Detection System, which helps users identify potential vitamin deficiencies by analyzing symptoms they select on a user-friendly interface.

This study observed a decrease in iodine, lithium, and lead concentrations in hair samples from Venezuelan subjects over 20 years, with regional variations noted for selenium, uranium, and mercury.

This study demonstrated that VD3 significantly enhanced the proliferation and differentiation of epidermal stem cells in a murine skin defect model, leading to improved wound healing, potentially through activation of the PI3K signaling pathway.

This study found that ultraviolet light-enhanced visualization can detect subtle skin changes linked to carotene and vitamin A deficiency, which improved with dietary correction in deficient individuals.

This case study indicates that older patients with NMOSD may show favorable clinical improvements with aggressive treatment, even when the intervention is initiated later in the disease course.

A man developed alopecia areata after starting cancer treatment with vandetanib.

In this study, mutations in the vitamin D receptor were identified in Brazilian children with rickets and alopecia, leading to impaired receptor activation and reduced 24-hydroxylase expression.

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 both Sterculia villosa bark and Vernonia patula plant extracts showed concentration-dependent antioxidant activities, with Vernonia patula demonstrating a stronger effect.

This study found that the novel drug VDC-1101 showed a 45% objective response rate in treating canine cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, offering a potential treatment option for this challenging disease.

This research suggests that the vitamin D receptor may regulate hair follicle cycling and provide genoprotection against skin carcinogenesis through a mechanism independent of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, based on evidence from mouse models.

This article reviews the role of vitamin D receptor in protecting the skin from UV radiation-induced damage and tumor formation, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that exposure to certain elements during pregnancy, measured in maternal hair, was associated with increased risk of gestational diabetes and potential impacts on infant neurodevelopment, with elements like Ta, Re, and Se posing the highest risk for gestational diabetes.

In this study, topical estrogens and corticosteroids were associated with decreased telogen rates in 52% of androgenetic alopecia patients, suggesting potential clinical improvement, though the role of corticosteroids remains unclear.

This study found that hesperidin, a bioflavonoid, mitigated the negative effects of finasteride on sperm health and testicular structure in male Wistar rats by reducing oxidative stress and apoptosis and supporting testicular antioxidant capacity.

This review discusses the role of mineral nutrients in human health, emphasizing the importance of dietary sources and education to prevent mineral deficiencies, and reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that a clinical nutrition program improved sensory loss and maintained symptom improvements in a 60-year-old man with anti-MAG neuropathy over the course of one year.

This study observed that topical 3% minoxidil increased hair growth in treated twins compared to their untreated identical siblings.

Vitamin D receptor is key to hair growth, not vitamin D itself.

This article reviews the multifaceted roles of vitamin D beyond bone health and notes its potential involvement in reducing risks of certain cancers and autoimmune diseases, but it presents no new clinical results.

This study indicates that vitamin D3 administration may protect rat hair follicles from radiation-induced damage, as evidenced by maintained follicle numbers and increased Vitamin D receptor activity in treated skin.

This study reports that VP-16-213 (etoposide) shows significant therapeutic activity in several cancers including small cell bronchogenic carcinoma and certain leukemias, with hematologic toxicity being the primary side effect.

This study investigated a new formula called SV-loaded nanospanlastics for topical application to treat androgenic alopecia. It showed similar effectiveness to minoxidil lotion but with fewer adverse effects when used to enhance dermal delivery and efficacy of sodium valproate.

This study observed that 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 restored rickets symptoms in genetically modified rats, suggesting its direct action through vitamin D receptor pathways.

This study found that the vitamin D receptor is essential for the self-renewal, migration, and differentiation of epidermal stem cells during skin wound healing in mice.

In a mouse model study, transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) significantly reduced depigmentation in vitiligo, potentially through mechanisms that regulate oxidative stress and inflammation, indicating taVNS's promise as a therapeutic approach for this skin disorder.

This study identified a novel V26M mutation in the vitamin D receptor as the cause of hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets in a patient, characterized by severe rickets and an unusual pattern of alopecia.

This study found that humanized mouse models expressing mutated or reduced levels of the vitamin D receptor were able to maintain normal mineral homeostasis and prevent typical symptoms of vitamin D resistance.
