This case study reports that a heterozygous missense GJA1 mutation, p.Gly138Ser, in a 2-year-old boy with oculodentodigital syndrome primarily resulted in syndactyly, fifth finger hypoplasia, and hypotrichosis, without neurological or craniofacial abnormalities.

In this case report, researchers observed that the monoclonal antibody bevacizumab may worsen hypothyroidism in patients, as seen in a 60-year-old woman with metastatic duodenal carcinoma. The authors suggest that thyroid function should be monitored when using VEGF inhibitor therapies due to potential adverse effects.

This case report describes a 24-year-old male with eruptive vellus hair cysts on his forehead and explores the use of extraction videodermoscopy as a new, less invasive diagnostic method, potentially replacing the need for skin biopsy in diagnosing such skin conditions.

This review summarizes the proposed model that describes how different shapes of 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 ligands interact with the vitamin D receptor to mediate genomic and rapid responses in cells.

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.

In this study, the researchers found that vitamin D and calcium signaling in keratinocytes are essential for normal skin regeneration after wounding, with deficiencies significantly delaying wound closure and re-epithelialization in mice.

This study found that VMAT hair-sparing WBRT partially preserved scalp hair at four weeks post-treatment without compromising symptomatic disease control in the short term, but reduced hair loss did not improve quality of life.

This study found that c-Jun is essential for vitamin D receptor expression, and the vitamin D receptor inhibits c-Jun-dependent cell death through non-classical mechanisms independent of vitamin D3.

This study demonstrated that both HR isoforms are expressed in keratinocytes, but HRDelta1072-1126 lacks corepressor activity and may act as a coactivator by inhibiting HDAC recruitment to the VDR transcriptional complex.

This study found that vimentin expression in the hair follicles of Inner Mongolian Cashmere goats is highest during the growth stage and localized to the outer root sheath, suggesting a role in hair cycle regulation.

This article reviews methods such as stem cell implantation to enhance hair transplant donor supply but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that specific dermoscopic signs, such as diameter diversity of leukotrichia and Pohl-Pinkus constrictions, were associated with progressive vitiligo, and early-stage melanin synthesis was impaired in vitiligo-associated leukotrichia.

This study found that mice lacking both vitamin D and calcium-sensing receptors in epidermal keratinocytes are predisposed to developing squamous cell carcinoma as they age, due to impaired oxidative stress response and reduced DNA repair capabilities.

This case report identifies a previously undocumented nonsense mutation in DCAF17 in a Chinese patient with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, inherited from consanguineous parents.

Lack of vitamin D receptor increases skin tumor risk by boosting hedgehog signaling.

This publication describes the role of the Revista Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica in documenting and promoting advancements in plastic surgery, but does not present new research findings.

This study concluded that male mice are more susceptible to valproic acid-induced autism spectrum disorder than female mice, with noticeable differences in brain histoarchitecture and receptor protein levels.

This study characterized two siblings with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets and a mutation in the vitamin D receptor, finding no immune-related disorders despite a defective T cell response to vitamin D.

This study observed that vitamin D receptor knockout mice exhibit impaired epidermal differentiation and progressive hair loss, suggesting the importance of the vitamin D receptor in normal skin and hair follicle development.

This case report describes a 45-year-old Malian woman with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease, highlighting its uncommon occurrence among individuals of African descent and detailing her treatment with prednisone and other adjunct therapies.

This study observed two cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia developing on preexisting vitiligo, suggesting a potential causal link between the two conditions.

In this study conducted on mouse fetuses, valproic acid was found to reduce Sonic Hedgehog expression in the skin and hair follicles, but the inclusion of vitamin E helped mitigate this effect, supporting its potential role in managing valproic acid-induced changes.

This clinical study found that using a cream or lotion as an additional treatment alongside standard care for atopic dermatitis significantly reduced symptoms and improved skin moisturization and barrier function within 28 days compared to standard care alone in participants with mild-to-moderate eczema.

This study observed a high incidence of hemangioma rubi on the scalp in older adults, which had not been previously reported in the literature.

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 report describes a patient with mutations in both alleles of the vitamin D receptor who exhibited hair loss clinically indistinguishable from generalized atrichia with papules, suggesting a potential genetic pathway shared with the hairless gene.

This study describes a family with loose anagen hair syndrome associated with macular dystrophy, suggesting this combination may represent a new disease entity among ectodermal dysplasias.

This study suggests that low-cost videomicroscopes may inaccurately assess certain features in hair and scalp disorders compared to standard videodermatoscopy, limiting their reliability for trichoscopy.

This pilot study found that the Virtual Magic Wand program successfully educated dermatologists in problem-driven innovation, enhancing their ability to engage in innovative dermatologic practices.
