In this study, homozygous VDR null mutant mice exhibited nonfunctional vitamin D receptors, leading to growth abnormalities and revealing the limited physiological importance of vitamin D pathways outside the classical receptor.

This study found that repetitive 532 nm laser therapy significantly decreased scores for macules, pigmented, and vascular lesions on the facial area, regardless of skin phototype or age.

This study found that dermatoscopy can quickly and non-invasively detect facial vellus hair involvement in patients with alopecia frontal fibrosante, occurring frequently and associated with specific facial lesions.

This study found that videodermoscopy is a promising non-invasive tool for distinguishing between types of non-scarring alopecia on the scalp, highlighting its potential in dermatological practice.

This case report describes a possible association between Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease and linear IgA/IgG bullous dermatosis in a 35-year-old Japanese male, though coincidence cannot be ruled out.

Vascular endothelial growth factor might be involved in common hair loss.

This report describes the first documented occurrence of Vohwinkel's disease combined with congenital alopecia universalis in siblings from the same family, both unresponsive to prior treatments.

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.

This study suggests using a handheld dermatoscope may allow for simple and efficient differentiation of eruptive vellus hair cysts by detecting vellus hair shafts, as demonstrated in a familial case involving five women.

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.

This study found that the absence of vitamin D receptor-mediated suppression of PPARγ expression causes hair loss in VDR-null mice.

This research highlights the potential of non-coding RNAs as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in dermatology, while experimental studies on a unique GVM case suggest CCM2L may modulate disease severity, advancing understanding of genetic mechanisms in rare skin disorders.

This study found that mice lacking the vitamin D receptor (VDR) developed skin tumors more rapidly than those with normal VDR activity, regardless of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) presence.

This case report details a severe instance of VDR-II where intravenous calcium infusions, administered nightly, successfully improved clinical, radiological, and biochemical signs of rickets without alopecia despite ineffective calcitriol therapy.

This study found that the hairless gene product (Hr) suppresses VDR-mediated gene activation by directly interacting with the vitamin D receptor, potentially affecting hair follicle function.

Pre-natal, internal, and external factors may contribute to the development of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

In this study, D-OCT imaging revealed distinct structural and vascular changes in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting the technique's potential for diagnosing and monitoring the condition's activity.

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 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 article describes viDA Therapeutics Inc.'s focus on developing new drugs for age-related conditions using their proprietary granzyme-based approach but reports no clinical outcomes, primarily discussing their funding and business strategy.

This case study described a Staffordshire Bull Terrier diagnosed with alopecia by color dilution, characterized by gradual hair loss and confirmed through clinical examination and histopathology.

CD8+ virtual memory T cells may cause hair loss in alopecia areata.

Vitamin D receptor mutations can cause alopecia by affecting hair growth genes.

This study found that most pathogenic HR mutants associated with atrichia with papular lesions had abolished corepressor activity due to defective interactions with histone deacetylases.

Girls with Autism Spectrum Disorder may show different symptoms than boys, leading to missed or delayed diagnoses.

This study found that stem cells from mouse dental pulp and vibrissae shared similar marker profiles, but dental pulp stem cells expressed a broader range of stem cell markers, suggesting their potential use in regenerative medicine.

This study revealed that Vav2 and Vav3 play roles in regulating hair follicle bulge stem cells in normal conditions and cancer stem cell activation and remodeling in mice.

A specific gene variant is linked to heart disease, increased heart muscle, curly hair, and thick skin on palms and soles.
