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

The combination of gemcitabine and vinorelbine is effective and safe for treating elderly patients with advanced breast cancer previously treated with anthracyclines and taxanes.

This study suggests that valine and certain VLDL subfractions are positively associated with androgenetic alopecia risk, while reverse analysis showed AGA does not affect these metabolites.

This study describes a patient with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets (HVDRR) who, despite having a truncated vitamin D receptor, did not exhibit typical hair or skin abnormalities, suggesting possible compensation via interactions with other proteins.

In this study, Mononuclear Cells provided site-specific protection against chemotherapy-induced alopecia in rats treated with Ara-C, but not with CTX or VP-16, while PRP showed no protective effect.

This study found no statistically significant difference in the severity of insect bite hypersensitivity symptoms between horses receiving a nicotinamide supplement and those receiving a placebo.

In this study, the researchers developed a hydrogel mimicking the fetal environment that significantly accelerated wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in vivo, with over 94% wound closure in 14 days, surpassing hydrogels lacking certain additives.

This study found that in Vdr-knockout mice, hair follicles fail to complete the catagen stage, leading to persistent epithelial strands and subsequent hair loss.

This study developed a new method to analyze Cantú syndrome mutations in KATP channels, finding that while Kir6.1 mutations increase sensitivity to potassium channel openers, SUR2B mutations show reduced sensitivity, but both result in marked hyperpolarization compared to wild-type channels under basal conditions.

Patients with multiple superficial venous thrombosis are at greater risk for serious complications like cancer and recurrent blood clots.

The vellus index is a simple, quick, and reliable method to assess and monitor hair growth, especially in hirsutism.

This study found that ICAM-1 expression in murine skin is developmentally regulated and crucial for skin and hair follicle remodeling beyond its recognized role in immune responses.

This review highlights the potential benefits of spironolactone in dermatology, particularly for female acne, supporting its safety over long-term use without extensive testing, but presents no new clinical results.

The InCISE score is a promising tool for assessing wound healing in head and neck surgery but needs more research for broader use.

A new change in the WNT10A gene caused a condition leading to short hair growth in a Chinese family.

This study introduced and validated the VESALT, a visual extension of the Severity of Alopecia Tool, finding it offers improved reliability and user-friendliness over SALT by incorporating pattern recognition and broader coverage, including non-scalp regions, in assessing alopecia areata severity.

The microneedle arrays effectively promote wound healing and have potential for clinical use.

This review explores mechanisms of skin angiogenesis and suggests targeting blood vessels as a promising therapy for skin diseases, but it reports no new research results.

This study found that γδ T cells in the skin contribute to wound healing after vaccinia virus infection by promoting cytokine and growth factor induction, without affecting virus replication control.

In this case report, researchers identified Vitamin A toxicity as the cause of refractory hypercalcemia in a nonverbal patient, emphasizing the difficulty of diagnosing this rare condition due to its nonspecific symptoms.

This study found that certain VDR gene polymorphisms are more prevalent in female pattern hair loss patients than in healthy controls, suggesting these polymorphisms may increase disease risk.

This study concluded that a hair-nourishing formulation combining virgin coconut oil and 4% chilli oil significantly enhanced hair growth in white rats over a 21-day period, while also exhibiting good physical stability under varying storage conditions.

This study found that conditional deletion of CD271 in mouse epidermis led to significant disorganization and increased thickness, suggesting CD271's crucial role in regulating skin differentiation and structure.

This study investigated vitamin D receptor expression in normal hair follicles and those affected by alopecia areata, focusing on various markers using immunohistochemical staining.

This study found that the methanolic heartwood extract of Avicennia marina significantly inhibits 5α-reductase type 1, reducing 5α-DHT production by 52% in a cell-based assay with human hair dermal papilla cells.

This review provides an overview of how advancing imaging technologies, such as tissue clearing and intravital microscopy, are enhancing our understanding of tumor architecture and interactions between cancer cells and the tumor microenvironment, aiding both fundamental cancer research and the development of therapies.

In this study, researchers developed a novel method using ultrasound stimulation and a hydrogel delivery system to enhance the regenerative effects of stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles on severe skin injuries, resulting in improved healing and hair follicle regeneration in a mouse model.

This study identified key genes involved in feather follicle development in Wannan chickens, finding that genes such as LAMC2, COL6A3, and WNT7A are crucial in the regulation processes, potentially aiding molecular breeding programs for improved carcass appearance traits.

This index reviews the clinical examination of farm animals and reports no new research findings.

This study observed that Cyp27b1−/− mice exhibited growth and skeletal abnormalities similar to those of Vdr−/− mice, despite differences like the development of alopecia in Vdr−/− mice, suggesting that 1α,25D3 may directly influence chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation.
